•
Set the UPPER AIR SUPPLY to maximum manually
with the tool provided, or by pressing the ON/HI button on
the remote control.
•
Set the LOWER AIR SUPPLY to maximum.
•
If your stove has the CATALYTIC HYBRID WOODBOX System, open the by-pass placed in the top
inside the stove (Fig. 15).
If you also have a draft control, place the valve open (opcional – Fig. 16).
•
Tip: leave the door slightly open to stoke the fire. It will increase the draw and allow an ember bed to be
achieved.
•
Place some paper or shavings, kindling and some small logs on the grate.
•
Light the paper.
•
When the fire has started, close off the lower air supply. Normally, it must remain in the
closed position when burning wood.
Important: in the event of a weak draw and/or an insufficient ember bed, it is advised to leave the
lower air supply open slightly in order to allow your appliance to reach its normal performance
(sometimes this can take more than an hour). Depending on the model, it is supplied with a blind
grill that is located under the grill (fig. 17). In case of bad draw or use with coal remove the blind
grill.

Then, adjust the flow to the desired intensity with the upper air control manually with the
tool provided, or by pressing the OFF/LO button on the remote control. With practice, you will
quickly be able to fi nd the position that suits you best. If you have the CATALYTIC HYBRID
WOODBOX System, close the by-pass to allow the flue gases pass trough the catalyst (Fig.
14) to achive the maximum efficiency of the stove. Protect your hands for such
operation. In addition, if you have a draft regulator, you can regulate the combustion by
operating its control.
