3.3.1 The first time a fire is lit
During the first firing, which should be carried out using approximately 1 kg of wood, the stoking door must
be left slightly open and must not be closed until the stove is cold. This is to prevent the sealing rope sticking
to the stove.
The first few times the Aduro H2 is used, there may be some smoke and unpleasant odours from the Aduro
H2, which is fairly normal. This is caused by the heat-resistant paint hardening. Make sure there is sufficient
ventilation during this stage. It is also important not to let the fire burn too fiercely the first 2-3 times, so that
the Aduro H2 has time to expand slowly. You should also be aware that the stove may make clicking sounds
as it heats up and cools down – rather like pouring boiling water into a sink. These are caused by the great
differences in temperature to which the materials are being exposed.
3.3.2 Lighting the fire manually with firewood
The fire lighting method is very important for starting combustion quickly and efficient.
1. Pull the damper under the door fully out so that primary, secondary, and tertiary air supply is
completely open.
2. Place a log of wood crosswise in the combustion chamber and put 2 firelighters close to the log.
Light the firelighters and quickly put a new log close to the firelighters and several small logs at an
angle above it. Air must be able to reach the firelighters, but the logs should be touching to “warm”
each other.
3. Keep the door approx. 1 cm ajar, until the glass is too hot to touch. Then close the door. When there
are distinct, visible flames and the fire has taken hold, close the primary air intake.
3.3.3 How do I add pellets?
Place the enclosed funnel in the opening of the pellet box and add the pellets. The pellets are distributed
with a poker in the box to make use of the entire capacity (approx. 13 kg of pellets).
By the first use, the augers must be filled with pellets:
Open the door to the combustion chamber and lift out the front of the
brazier (the black cast iron cone with the Aduro logo) so you can see the
pellets. Close the stove’s door. Press and hold the AUGER button and
the augers will start transporting the pellets (only at OFF mode yellow
button). After approx. 12 minutes where you press and hold the AUGER
button, the auger pipe will be filled with pellets. Stop pressing the AUGER
button when the pellets are about 2 cm under the auger pipe’s top edge.
Insert the brazier and close the stove’s door. In section 5 you will find an
overview of the different alarms.
The control handle will get warm when the Aduro H2 is in use. Please use the
glove provided when you operate the Aduro H2.
