8. EXTENDED BURNING

8.1 It is possible to get the appliance to burn for extended

periods of time. In order to do this:

—De-ash prior to final refuelling.

—Set air controls to low combustion settings.

This will gradually blacken the glass but it will clear when

operated at a high temperature for a short period.

—Use smokeless fuel or small, thick logs.

9. OVER-FIRING

9.1 Do not over-fill with fuel or run at high temperatures for

long periods or over-firing can occur. If the flue pipe, flue

collar or top plate glow red the appliance is over-firing.

Close the air controls to reduce the temperature.

9.2 Over-firing can cause permanent damage to the

appliance and invalidate the product warranty.

WARNING: DO NOT OPERATE THE APPLIANCE WITH

THE PRIMARY AIR CONTROL OPEN FOR LONG

PERIODS OF TIME AS THIS COULD CAUSE OVER-

FIRING AND MAY CAUSE PERMANENT DAMAGE.

10. CHIMNEY FIRE

10.1 If a chimney fire occurs:

Shut all air controls immediately.

Evacuate the building.

Call the fire brigade.

Do not re-enter the building until it is confirmed safe.

10.2 Do not use the appliance after a chimney fire until:

a) It has been inspected by a registered installer* who

has confirmed the appliance is safe to use.

b) The chimney system has been inspected and swept by a

chimney sweep, confirming the system is structurally sound

and free from obstruction**.

c) It is repaired as required before re-use. Use only

genuine Yeoman replacement parts to keep your appliance

in safe, efficient working order.
