The lighting position is obtained by manoeuvring this
booster, which is identified by a red pastille on the front
of the button and a red ring around its axis. You will
have to pull on the booster in order to put the appliance
into the lighting position.
NB: this position of the booster should only be
used during the lighting of your appliance. Once
the fire is alight, the booster must be completely
pushed back and will have to remain in that
position while your heating appliance is being
used. You are likely to damage your appliance if
you do not comply with these recommendations.
6.4.1 - Lighting
•
Pull the air intake adjustment knob (Fig. 1 Ref. 1).
•
Pull the ignition booster (Fig. 1 Ref. 17).
•
Place crumpled paper and small and very dry parts
of wood (twigs) on the grate, then place branches
of split wood of a bigger size (∅ 3 à 5 cm).
•
Light the paper and shut the door (leave it slightly
open to accelerate the lighting in avoiding any
blowing back outside the appliance).
•
When the loading of small parts of wood is well lit,
open the door, load the appliance with the
recommended fuel.
•
Push the ignition booster completely back again.
6.4.2 - Working
•
The wanted speed is obtained in moving the
different components (Fig. 1 Ref. 1) and in
choosing a load corresponding to the needs.
-
Pull the knob completely for it to be at
maximum speed (Position A, Fig. 20).
-
Push the knob completely back for it to be at
minimum speed (Position B, Fig. 20).
-

intermediary speed.
•
To get a slower speed for a longer period, load on a
hardly glowing bed of embers.
•
To get a rapid blaze, restart the fire with small parts
of wood, load with logs, possibly maintaining the
door slightly open for a few minutes to accelerate
the
blaze,
keeping
surveillance, then close the door. This operation
allows to accelerate the restart, especially if the
wood is humid.
•
Adjust the speed changes (going from a normal
speed to a slower speed for example) before
loadings in the embers'combustion stage, to let the
appliance and the smokes' flue progressively
change speed.
•
In order to avoid smoke blowing back and falling
down of the ashes in the room when you reload, the
opening of the door needs to take a few
precautions :

under
- Stop the ventilation in order to avoid vacuuming
the ashes that might fall before the appliance
- Open slightly the door, pause for a moment to
start the draught corresponding to the running with
a open door, then slowly open the door.
•
The continuous running with a slow speed,
especially in milder weather (unfavourable draught)
and with humid wood, leads to an incomplete
burning which favour bistre and tar deposits :
Alternate slow speeds with some returns to
o
normal speed running period.
Favour uses with small loads.

•
After a running with a slow speed, the window can
get dark because of a slight bistre. This deposit
normally disappears in a higher speed pyrolysis
running.
•
The combustion chamber must be always closed
except when reloading in order to avoid any excess
of smoke.
Ash removal
6.4.3 -
•
The air used for the combustion of wood comes
from under the grate when the air intake damper is
open. This air also ensures the cooling of the grate.
It
is
therefore
performances and to avoid damage of the grate
under the the effect of overheating, it is also
necessary to avoid its obstruction in proceeding in
regular ash removal and the clearing of the ashes.
- The scraper allows to make the ash removal of
the grate (Fig. 1).
- The ashtray- fixed under the grid - is easily
removable by pulling it out thanks to the cold
hand.
•
The level of the ashes must never reach the cast
iron grate of the appliance.
6.4.4 - Safety regulations
•
Never throw water to put the fire out.
•
The window of the appliance is very hot : be careful
you don't get burnt notably children.
•
The appliance gives out important heat through
radiation : don't put materials nor heat-sensitive
objects within a distance inferior of 1,50 m to the
window.
•
Empty the content of the ash pan in a metallic or
inflammable container kept for this use only. The
ashes which look like cold can actually be very hot,
even after some cooling time.
•
Don't place easily inflammable materials in the
environment of the appliance and in the place
where you store wood.
•
Particularly, don't store wood under the appliance
•
In case of a chimney fire, put the air intake damper
in a closed position.
