a) Open doors and windows to ventilate room.
b) Let the re out or eject and safely dispose of fuel from the appliance.
c) Check for ue or chimney blockage, and clean if required.
Do not attempt to relight the re until the cause of the fume emission has been identied
and corrected. If necessary seek expert advice.
Extractor fan
There must not be an extractor fan tted in the same room as the stove as this can cause
the stove to emit smoke and fumes into the room.
Permanent air vent
The stove requires a permanent and adequate air supply in order for it to operate safely
and eciently.
In accordance with current Building Regulations the installer may have tted a permanent
air supply vent into the room in which the stove is installed to provide combustion air. This
air vent should not under any circumstances be shut o or sealed.
Chimney cleaning
The chimney should be swept at least twice a year. It is important that the ue connection
and chimney are swept prior to lighting up after a prolonged shutdown period.
If the stove is tted in place of an open re then the chimney will require sweeping after a
month of continuous operation. This is a precaution to ensure that any “softer” deposits
left from the open re usage have not been loosened by the higher ue temperatures ge-
nerated by the closed stove.
Periods of Prolonged Non-Use
If the stove is to be left unused for a prolonged period of time then it should be given a
thorough clean to remove ash and unburned fuel residues. To enable a good ow of air
through the appliance to reduce condensation and subsequent damage, leave the air con-
trols fully open.
Use of reguard
When using the stove in situations where children, aged and/or inrm persons are pre-
sent a reguard must be used to prevent accidental contact with the stove. The reguard
should be manufactured in accordance with BS 8423:2002 (Replaces BS 6539).
Use of operating tools
Always use the operating tools provided when handling parts likely to be hot when the st-
ove is in use.
Aerosol sprays
Do not use an aerosol spray on or near the stove when it is alight.
