WARNING
Properly installed, operated and maintained this
appliance will not emit fumes into the room but
occasional fumes from de-ashing and refuelling
may occur.
Persistent fume emission is potentially
dangerous and must not be tolerated.
If fume emission persists:
• Open doors and windows to ventilate the room.
• Leave the room.
• Allow fire to burn out or safely dispose of fuel
from the appliance.
• Check for chimney blockage and clean if
required.
• Do not attempt to relight until the cause of the
emission has been identified and corrected.
• If necessary seek expert advice.
• All open flued appliances can be affected by
temporary atmospheric conditions which may
allow fumes to enter the house.
Because of this an electronic carbon monoxide
detector conforming to the latest edition of
BSEN50292 must be fitted in the same room as
the appliance. The existence of an
alarm must not be considered a substitute for
ensuring regular servicing and maintenance of
the appliance and chimney system.
