3.3 During this time the cooker may give off some

unpleasant odours, and we recommend that you keep

the room well ventilated during this period to avoid a

build-up of fumes.

4. BURNING WOOD

4.1 Open the air control to maximum.

4.2 Open flue by-pass control using tool.

4.3 Place some pieces of firelighter or dry crumpled paper

on the grate and cover with some small pieces of dry

kindling wood. Light the paper or firelighters.

4.4 As the fire becomes established add larger pieces of

wood. Do not leave the firedoor open as this could

over-fire the cooker and cause permanent damage.

4.5 As the fire becomes established adjust the air control to

give the oven temperature you require.

4.6 Close flue by-pass control.

4.7 To burn wood efficiently it is best to allow a bed of ash

to build-up on the grate.

4.8 Before re-fuelling the cooker it is advisable to first rake

the embers evenly over the firebed then open the air

control fully for a few minutes, to establish a glowing

bed before adding new logs.

4.9 Allow the new logs to burn at high output for a few

minutes before adjusting the burn rate, with the air

control, to the desired setting. It is best to refuel little

and often to maintain clean and efficient burning.

4.10 The ideal control settings to suit the particular

installation and personal preferences will be established

by experience in using the cooker.

4.11 It is not recommended to load large amounts of logs and

burn with the air control on low settings for long

periods of time. This will cause large a build-up of tars

and creosotes in the cooker and flue system, possibly

resulting in a chimney fire.

4.12 Do not burn kiln-dried, painted, impregnated wood

or manufactured board products. As the high

combustion temperatures generated by these products

could cause permanent damage to the internal parts

of the cooker.

5. BURNING SOLID FUEL

5.1 Open the air control to maximum.

5.2 Open flueby-pass control using tool.

5.3 Place some pieces of firelighter or dry crumpled paper

on the grate and cover with some small pieces of dry

kindling wood. Light the paper or firelighters.

5.4 As the fire becomes established add larger pieces of

wood. Do not leave the firedoor open as this could

over-fire the cooker and cause permanent damage.
