adjust to the development of heat. By careful heating you
will avoid cracks in the insulating bricks, damage to the
finish and distortion of the materials it is made from. Any
possible smells caused by the final drying out of the
protective finish disappear after a short period of time.
5.4. Lighting the multi-fuel stove and heating it
First place two or three pieces of wood (about 1.5 to 2.0 kg)
at the bottom of the combustion chamber or grate. On top of
this place paper (free from any coatings), cardboard or a fire-
lighter; on top of these place brushwood, kindling or pieces
of briquette. All the slide controls to regulate the air intake
should be fully open. After lighting the multi-fuel stove the
combustion chamber door is to be closed. The slider controls
are then to be adjusted according to the instructions on the
accompanying device information sheet.

5.5. Adding fuel
In addition to using the correct fuel and providing a
sufficient draught for the chimney, the way in which the
stove is used has a large influence on whether the transparent
window remains clean. We therefore recommend that you
use just a single layer of fuel and to use the largest possible
pieces of wood (around 33cm) which fill most of the width
of the combustion chamber. Briquettes should be placed in
the combustion chamber so that they as far as possible form
a sheet with a distance of 5 to 10 mm between the briquettes.
Warning! Further fuel should only be placed on top of
the glowing fire bed when there are no longer any
flames.
Before you open the combustion chamber doors all the
sliders controls for the air intakes should be fully closed (see
device information sheet) in order to prevent the escape of
exhaust gases in to the living room. After adding fuel please
close the combustion chamber door. Then immediately open
all the slider controls for the air intakes to their maximum to
reduce the time it takes for the fuel to ignite. As soon as the
fuel is burning well, slowly adjust the regulator position as
described on the accompanying device information sheet
(when burning split logs please close the primary air slider
control first see the device information sheet).
5.6. Operating methods in the transition period
In the transition period or when there are higher outside
temperatures, a sudden increase in temperature can under
some circumstances cause the chimney draught to be
affected so that exhaust gases are not completely removed.
In principle the stove should therefore be operated using the
smallest possible amount of fuel during this transition period
in order to be able to improve combustion and the draught
by opening the sliding controls for air.
5.7. Emptying the ash
The ash is to be removed from the grate into the ash pan
using a poker after the stove has been lit for a long time, and
at least once a day. This is best carried out in the morning
after the fuel is glowing when the stove is in a relatively cool
condition. Please make sure the ash pan is emptied when it is
around half full so that the cone of ash does not grow too
close to the grate. If the grate is covered by the ash cone
there is a danger that this may be damaged by overheating
because no air can be passed through it to cool it down
Warning:
Before emptying the ash always make sure that there are no
pieces of glowing cinders remaining in the ash. Even when
the ash is cold glowing cinders can possibly be present
within it and lead to a fire in the dustbin.
Wood ash can be used as a fertilizer.
5.8. Limiting emissions
The multi-fuel stove is built for the combustion of smokeless
fuels. According to the German Federal Law on Emission
Control the following fuels, for example, may not be burnt:
damp wood or wood treated with timber preservatives,
fine wood chips,
paper and cardboard (except for lighting the stove),
bark or waste chipboard ,
plastics or other rubbish.
Burning these substances not only harms the environment,
but also shortens the life of your multi-fuel stove; the
chimney can also become damaged. Regular cleaning and
maintenance for you stove reduces the emission of harmful
substances. Bark which is already on split logs may, of
course, be burnt.
5.9. Cleaning and maintenance
You should clean and maintain your multi-fuel stove when it
is cold at least once a year and more frequently if necessary.
The accumulations of ash in the flue pipe and the entrances
to the heat exchanger should be cleaned with a flue brush
(see device information sheet). An ash vacuum cleaner is
suitable for cleaning the exhaust gas flues. Dirt on the
transparent windows can be removed most effectively and in
the most environmentally friendly manner by using a
dishcloth moistened with water, which you dip into wood ash
or other usual household glass cleaners.
The chimney must also be swept regularly by the chimney
sweep. The master chimney sweep responsible will provide
information about the necessary interval between sweepings.
The multi-fuel stove should be examined once a year by a
specialist tradesman.
