Overheating.
Overheating means that you have operated your
heater at an excessively high temperatures for a
long period of time. This can damage your appli-
ance and, therefore, it is a situation that must be
avoided.
Overheating is the result of excessive draw, due to
any of the following reasons:
The Primary Air Valve is excessively open for
the type of wood being used.
The chimney is too high.
Improper maintenance of the stove, which
may result in air infiltration.
Inappropriate fuel that produces high tem-
peratures.
Door not closed correctly.
ATTENTION!
Any uncontrolled intake of air produces over-
heating that can damage the stove.
The stove has an air-inlet cut off plate which is
necessary to obtain the results accredited by the
Official laboratory that has tested this product.
To remove the air-inlet cut off plate, first remove
the lower and upper vermiculite baffle. Remove
the air inlet cut off plate by lifting and turning 90
degrees, and then put the baffles back on. See the
section on "Vermiculite installation".

CLEANING & MAINTENANCE
Your heater is a device that is subjected to ex-
treme temperatures and to the corrosive effects
of combustion residual materials. Regular mainte-
nance is essential for a longer life and improved
user experience.
We recommend performing the following inspec-
tions frequently.
DURING THE SEASON
Perform a visual inspection of the chim-
ney. Clean soot and tar if they have be-
gun to accumulate on the inner walls of the
heater.
Check whether the doors close tightly; adjust
if necessary.
AT THE END OF THE SEASON
Inspect and clean the chimney.
Use the vacuum cleaner to clean inside the
heater and inspect it.
