shown.

De-ash the firebed, using the riddling grate system as shown
below.

2.1 When new it is best to burn the fire at a low output for the
first few days of use. This will allow the construction to
settle and all fixing glues and paint to fully cure.
AVOID TOUCHING THE PAINT DURING FIRST PERIOD
OF USE.
2.2 During this time the appliance 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.
3.1 Open the Airwash control fully and open the Primary air
control to approximately 25% open.
3.2 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.
3.3 To avoid the build-up of condensation on the door glass it is
advisable to leave the door slightly open as the fire
establishes, and the glass warms.
