Periodically, it may be necessary to change the gaskets
on the door to ensure that the burn chamber is air tight
and working optimally. These gaskets can be bought as
a set, usually including ceramic glue.
CERAMIC GLASS
CANNOT BE
RECYCLED
Ceramic glass should
be disposed of as resid-
ual waste, together with
pottery and porcelain
Recycling of the ceramic glass
Ceramic glass cannot be recycled. Old glass, breakage
or otherwise unusable ceramic glass, must be discarded
as residual waste. Ceramic glass has a higher melting
temperature, and can therefore not be recycled together
with glass. In case it would be mixed with ordinary
glass, it would damage the raw material and could, in
worst case end the recycling of glass. It is an important
contribution to the environment to ensure that ceramic
glass does not end up with the recycling of ordinary
glass.
Packaging Recycle
The packaging accompanying the product should be
recycled according to national regulations.

9. Advice on lighting a fire
The best way to light a fire is with the use of lightening
briquettes and dry kindling wood. Newspapers
cause a lot of ashes and the ink is damaging for the
environment. Advertising flyers, magazines, milk
cartons and similar are not suitable for lighting a fire.
Good air supply is important at ignition. When the flue is
hot the draught increases and door can be closed.

NEVER use a lighting fuel such as petrol,
karosine, alcohol or similar for lighting a fire.
This could cause injury to you as well as
damaging the product.
Use clean and dry wood with a maximum moisture
content of 20% and minimum 16%. The wood logs
should dry for a minimum of 6 months after it is cut.
Humid wood requires a lot of air for the combustion,
as extra energy/heat is required for drying the humid
wood and heat effect is therefore minimal. In addition
this creates soot in the chimney with the risk of creosote
and chimney fire.
In case of a chimney fire, close the door and air
supplies on the stove / insert and call the Fire
Brigade. After a chimney fire the chimney must in
all cases be inspected by an authorized chimney
sweeper before you use the appliance again.
Storing of wood
In order to ensure that the wood is dry, the tree should
be cut in winter and then stored during the summer,
under roof and in a location with adequate ventilation.
The wood pile must never be covered by a tarpaulin
which is lying against the ground as the tarpaulin will
then act as a sealed lid that will prevent the wood from
drying. Always keep a small amount of wood indoors for
a few days before use so that moisture in the surface of
the wood can evaporate.
Firing
Not enough air to the combustion may cause the glass
to soot. Hence, supply the fire with air just after the
wood is added, so that the flames and gases in the
combustion chamber are properly burnt off. Open the
air vent and have the door slightly ajar in order for the
flames to establish properly on the wood.
Note that the air supply for the combustion also can
be too large and cause an uncontrollable fire that very
quickly heat up the whole combustion chamber to an
extremely high temperature (when firing with a closed or
nearly closed door). For this reason you should never fill
the combustion chamber completely with wood.
It is recommended to keep an even fire with a small
amount of wood. Too many logs put on hot ember, may
result in combustion air starvation, and the gases will
be released unburnt. For this reason it is important to
increase the air supply just after adding the logs.
Choice of fuel
All types of wood, such as birch, beech, oak, elm, ash
and fruit trees, can be used as fuel in the insert. Wood
species have different degrees of density - the more
dense the wood is, the higher the energy value. Beech,
oak and birch has the highest density.
