it is helpful for you as a user, but also helpful for us and the craftsmen, if something happens to the stove, or
when it needs the yearly service visit from a professional. In Aduro Customer Service you can find a

3. Lighting a fire in the Aduro H2
You can light the fire using just pellets or light it manually with wood – or a combination where you put
firewood in the combustion chamber and use the pellets to light the fire. We recommend a combined usage,
since firing with wood gives a higher temperature which burn the remains of the pellets.
Important safety information
• The Aduro H2 will become warm during use and therefore it should be treated with all necessary
caution.
• Never keep easily combustible fluids such as petrol in the near of the Aduro H2.
• Never use easily combustible fluids to light the fire in the Aduro H2.
• When lighting a fire, it is important to get the fire burning fast. If the fire does not start quickly and
wood only smoulders, it can cause strong smoke formation and in worst case cause an explosive
ignition of the flue gasses, which can damage the stove.
• Never empty the ash pan when the Aduro H2 is warm. Embers may still be found in the ash pan
for up to 24 hours after the fire has gone out. Please wait to empty the ash pan until you are sure
that there are no embers in the ash.
• The door should be kept closed while the Aduro H2 is in use. While lighting the fire, the door can
stand ajar for the first few minutes.
• The pellet function stops if the door is opened.
• When putting logs in a hot stove, you must always open the primary air intake and make sure that
the wood ignites within 2-3 minutes. If the wood does not ignite, add some ignition products and
ignite them manually.
• In the event of a chimney fire: Close all the dampers on the Aduro H2 and call the fire-fighting
service.
3.1 Damper
The stove is equipped with a damper under the door, which regulates the combustion air: primary,
secondary, and tertiary air supply. The primary air is used at the beginning to get the fire going, the
secondary air keeps the fire burning evenly, and the tertiary air ensures that flue gasses are burned. You
must always add secondary and tertiary air, while firing the stove. According to our experiences regarding
the use of the pellet function, we recommend that the damper is always completely closed to achieve the
optimum combustion of the pellets.
The damper allows you to adjust the Aduro H2 according to the chimney draft and the heat output, you
require. The longer the damper is pulled out, the more air is added and the more powerful the combustion.
