Failure to properly use and maintain this appliance may void the
manufacturer's warranty and could result in a house fi re.
CAUTION: HOT WHILE IN OPERATION. DO NOT TOUCH. KEEP CHILDREN, CLOTHING AND FURNITURE
AWAY. CONTACT MAY CAUSE SKIN BURNS. SEE NAMEPLATE AND INSTRUCTIONS. Do Not over fi re.
If any portion of the unit or fl ue starts to glow you are over fi ring. This is a free standing fi replace, do not use for

1. The fi rst few fi res should be small in order to properly cure the painted surfaces and refractory. During the
fi rst few fi res, some smoking may occur as the paint cures. You may wish to open a window to minimize
discomfort during this curing period.
2. DO NOT BURN TRASH OR GARBAGE IN THIS UNIT. When building a fi re, be sure the damper is fully
opened and suffi cient combustion air is available. Place dry kindling on dry wadded paper then ignite with
a match. Add progressively larger pieces of wood until the fi re is well established. Leave the damper fully
open. Close only after the fi re has burned out completely. Add additional fi rewood as needed to maintain
the fi re.
3. The fi re screen must be in place during operations. THIS FIREPLACE STOVE HAS NOT BEEN TESTED
FOR USE WITH DOORS. TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR INJURY, DO NOT INSTALL DOORS.
4. Use the Malm MG16 grate espicially designed for long use in you Malm Zircon 30" unit.
5. Keep the pipe damper in the full open position when the fi replace is being used.
6. CAUTION: Heating the air in a closed building decreases the relative humidity of the air, which will dry wood
and other combustible materials. This drying lowers the ignition temperature of these materials thus
increasing fi re hazards. To reduce the risk of fi re, some provision should be made for replenishing moisture
to the air whenever a structure is being heated for extended periods.
7. Be sure to provide combustion air into the dwelling when using this or any other wood burning appliance. A
partially open window or outside air register in the vicinity of the unit would be acceptable. Combustion air
must be supplied in conformance with the Uniform Mechanical Code.
8. CAUTION: NEVER USE GASOLINE, GASOLINE TYPE LANTERN FUEL, KEROSENE, CHARCOAL
LIGHTER FLUID, OR SIMILAR LIQUIDS TO START OR "FRESHEN UP" A FIRE IN THIS HEATER.
KEEP ALL SUCH LIQUIDS WELL AWAY FROM THE HEATER WHILE IN USE.
9. DISPOSAL OF ASHES: Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight fi tting lid. The closed
container of ashes should be placed on a noncombustible fl oor or on the ground, well away from all
combustible materials, pending fi nal disposal. If the ashes are to be disposed of by burial in soil or otherwise
locally dispersed, they should be retained in the closed container until all cinders have thoroughly cooled.
10. READ MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS.
IN CASE OF A CHIMNEY FIRE
A safe and correct installation and extra care will help prevent a fi re, but accept the idea that there could be a fi re.
Be prepared to handle it. Make certain everyone in the house is familiar with the warning signs of a chimney fi re:
1. Call the Fire Department immediately, before doing anything else.
2. Discharge a dry chemical extinguisher into the fi replace opening. If an extinguisher is not available, toss
baking soda into the opening. Do not pour water on the fi re.
3. Close all air intakes to the fi rebox and leave closed until the fi replace, stove or stove pipe is completely cooled.
4. Watch for sparks on the roof. If necessary, hose down the roof around the chimney. DO NOT pour water
down or on the chimney.
5. After the fi re is completely out, inspect the chimney for any signs of damage. If you are not certain, have your
local Fire Department inspect the chimney for you. Never use a fl ammable liquid to kindle or rekindle a fi re.
6. Never use coal in a fi replace. Coal should be used only in stoves especially designed to burn coal. If the toxic
gases produced enter the room they can be fatal.
