Installing And Connecting; Use; First Use; Fuel - Dovre 640WD Installation Et Mode D'emploi

Connecting to the top
As standard, the appliance is delivered with the con-
nection collar fitted for a connection at the top, see fol-
lowing figure.
On delivery, the connection at the rear is closed, so
that a back cover does not need to be installed.
Because of the distance to the (combustible)
wall, the protection plate may not be removed
in the back shield.

Installing and connecting

1. Position the appliance in the correct place, and
make sure it is level. The appliance is designed
with adjustable feet, which may already be moun-
ted on the appliance or be included. Use these
adjustable feet so that the appliance can be placed
perfectly level.
2. Connect the appliance to the flue hermetically.
3. Re-position all removed parts in the correct places
in the appliance.
Never use the appliance without the fire-res-
istant inner plates.
The appliance is now ready for use.

Use

First use

When you use the appliance for the first time, make
an intense fire and keep it going for a good few hours.
This will cure the heat-resistant paint finish. This may
result in some smoke and odours. You could open win-
dows and doors for a while in the area in which the
appliance is located.

Fuel

This appliance is only suitable for burning natural
wood, namely sawn and chopped wood that is suf-
ficiently dry.
Do not use other fuels, as they can cause serious
damage to the appliance.
The following fuels may not be used as they pollute
the environment, and because they heavily pollute the
appliance and flue, which may lead to a chimney fire:
Treated wood, such as scrap wood, painted wood,
impregnated wood, preserved wood, plywood and
chipboard.
Plastics, scrap paper and domestic waste.
Wood
Hardwood, such as oak, beech, birch and fruit tree
wood is the ideal fuel for your stove. This type of
wood burns slowly with calm flames. Softwood
contains more resins, burns faster and sparks
more.
Use seasoned wood that contains no more than
20% moisture. The wood should have been
seasoned for at least 2 years. Wood with a mois-
ture content of 20% provides 4.2 kWh per kg wood.
Wood with a moisture content of 15% provides 4.4
kWh per kg wood. Freshly felled wood has a mois-
ture content of 60% and only provides 1.6 kWh per
kg wood.
Saw the wood to size and split it while it is still
fresh. Fresh wood is easier to split, and split wood
dries more easily. Store the wood under a roof
where the wind has free access.
Do not use damp wood. Damp logs do not produce
heat as all the energy is used in the evaporation of
moisture. This will result in a lot of smoke and soot
deposits on the appliance door and in the flue. The
