Your first heating session
When you light up for the first time, you must do it carefully as all materials must be introduced to the
heat gradually . The lacquer will be fully hardened after the insert has been light up for the first time . The
door must be opened carefully; otherwise there is a risk that the seals will stick to the lacquer . In addi-
tion the lacquer may initially give off an unpleasant odour, so make sure that the room is well ventilated .
Tips about fuel:
Approved fuel types
The insert is EN approved for combustion of wood only . It is recommended to use dried chopped wood
with a water content of a maximum of 20% . Stoking a fire with wet wood results in soot, environmental
problems, and a less efficient fuel economy .
Recommended wood types
All types of wood, for instance birch, beech, oak, elm, ash, conifers, and fruit trees can be used as fuel in
your insert . The great difference is not in the fuel value, but in the weight of the wood types per cubic
metre . Since beech weighs more per cubic metre than for instance common spruce, it will take more
common spruce to produce the same amount of heat that you would get from a cubic metre of beech .
Banned fuel types
It is not allowed to stoke a fire with the following:
• Printed matter
• Plywood, plastic
• Rubber
• Fluid fuels
• Rubbish such as milk cartons, lacquered wood or impregnated wood.
• Fossil fuels
The reason that you should not apply any of the above is that during combustion they develop substances
that are health hazardous and harmful to the environment . These substances could also damage your
stove and chimney, rendering the product warranty void .
Storage of wood
A water content of a maximum of 20% is achieved by storing the wood for a minimum of one year,
preferably two years, outdoors under a lean-to . Wood stored indoors has a tendency to become too
dry and combust too quickly . However, it might be advantageous to store fuel for lighting a fire indoors
for a few days prior to use .
Recommended dimensions
The dimensions of the fuel are important to good combustion . The dimensions should be as follows:
Fuel type
