What to do in case of chimney re
In case of chimney re, immediately close the shut-o valve in the chimney and all air supply ducts.
Call the re department. After the re is extinguished, the chimney and the stove must be inspected
again by your installer.
Maintenance
Small maintenance
• It is advisable to leave an ash layer of two to three centimetres. It will protect the re plate.
• Clean the exterior of the stove with a damp cloth that does not give o u. Do not use any aggressive
cleansing agents or abrasives.
• Clean the cold glass pane with a cleaning agent for ceramic cooking rings. Do not touch the clean glass
with your ngers. Finger marks burn into the glass.
• Oil the hinges and the door fastener once in a while.
Do not use any aggressive cleaning agents or abrasives to maintain your stove.
When the stove is not used
• Close all doors and air inlets in summer season
• Place absorbent salt inside the stove if it is stored in a humid space.
Yearly maintenance
• Have your chimney properly cleaned by a qualied chimney sweeper every year; this is for safety reasons
and any re insurance.
• Have the ue gas outlet and the combustion air supply of the double-walled ue tube system checked for
air-tightness every year.
• Have the complete ue system checked every year; this includes the roof or wall ducts and the outlet just
outside the wall.
• Have the valves and/or aps checked for their functioning.
• Have the sealing of doors and glass panes checked for wear and tear.
Safety
A WANDERS wood-burning stove gives you a comfortable and a safe source of heat in your home. Fire safety
starts with a proper installation and a properly working ue tube. Your installer must therefore comply with
the installation instructions as listed on page 22 and further. To burn your stove safely, the following points
are important:
1. Burn your stove as much as possible with a closed door; it increases the output and is better for the
environment.
2. Prevent small children or the inrm from getting too close to a burning stove and do not leave them alone
in the room when the stove is burning. You could use a re-screen.
3. Do not pour or put combustible liquids and materials in the stove, as it may damage the replace beyond
repair.
4. If the oor around the replace is made of combustible material you must use a oor slab. The oor slab
must have a minimum size of: - 50 cm measured from the replace on the front side of the door: - 30 cm
measured from the replace on all sides from the door:.
5. Do not place any combustible materials, such as curtains, wooden objects (cupboards, paintings) close to
the replace or the ue tube. A minimum distance of 80 cm measured from the exterior of the stove and
the ue tube is required.
6. Never cover the chimney breast or mantelpiece with combustible material (e.g. paper covering).
