• Non-toxic smoke will be emitted during the paint curing process, to help dissipate the smoke open a
window near the appliance.
• Remove any dust or debris off the top of the appliance before firing the appliance as the paint will become
soft as the appliance heats up and will harden as the appliance cures. To cure the paint on your appliance
burn your appliance moderately hot during the first few fires.
• To keep the gasket from sticking to the appliance as the paint is curing, periodically open the door every
5-10 minutes.
• For the first two weeks, use generous amounts of fuel and burn the appliance with the damper wide open
for an hour as the appliance goes through a process of eliminating moisture in the steel and firebricks.

be necessary to build several hot fires to remove this moisture. DURING THIS PROCESS DO NOT
OVERFIRE THE APPLIANCE. REDUCE THE AMOUNT OF AIR COMING INTO THE APPLIANCE IF
THE APPLIANCE OR CHIMNEY BECOMES RED.

GENERAL INFORMATION

Your appliance was specifically designed to meet the 1990 U.S.A. EPA particulate emission standards and has
been extensively tested in Canadian and American laboratories. This system is the most efficient, simple and
trouble free we know and works as follows:
Your appliance is the exact duplication of the clean-burning technology found in all Napoleon EPA certified freestanding
stoves and in particular that of the EPA 1100 and 1400. External modifications have been made to allow its installation as a
"functional insert" with a heat circulating blower system and a means of enclosing the solid fuel burning fireplace cavity for
greater heating efficiency.
