Í

Bio-ethanol must only be stored in a suitable container
with airtight lid. Store it in a cool place with no direct
sunlight and keep it out of the reach of children and
pets. Bio-ethanol is highly flammable. Never expose bio-
ethanol to direct sunlight or sources of heat. Never
store more than 5 litres (1.3 gallons) of bio-ethanol in
your apartment. Always comply with federal, state
and/or local regulations.

Avoid any movement within the range of the flame.

Never try to move the fireplace:
• while it is burning or,
• if extinguished, it is still hot or,
• if any unused bio-ethanol remains in the burner.

WARNING of other potential damage to your health
Avoid direct contact with ethanol (eyes, skin and mu-
cosa). Do not inhale the vapours of bio-ethanol.
Please read and carefully follow the additional instructi-
ons and safety information on the bio-ethanol container.

Risk of damages to property
Never use aggressive cleaning agents such as chemi-
cals, fuel, turpentine or cleaning powder for cleaning.

3. Minimum room volumes and air
change rates

All blomus fireplaces have been tested by the TÜV SÜD
Industry services in regards to the most current safety,
emission and burning regulations.

The following results have been confirmed:

• The actual test results in the below mentioned room
sizes and air change rates fall below highest allowed con-
centration of carbon monoxide (CO) of 30 ppm (in accor-
dance with the Bayerische Feuerverord-nung BayFeuV).

• The actual test results in the below mentioned room
sizes and air change rates fall below highest allowed con-
centration of carbon dioxide (CO2) of 5,000 ppm

• The test in accordance with these instructions proved
that the actual temperature of the fireplace passed on
to neighbouring items falls below the allowed tempera-
ture of 85°C (185 F)

• The maximum allowed fuel flow-rate of 0.5 litres
(16.9 fl.oz.) per hour is not exceeded.

• A maximum CO2 content of 5,000 ppm in the air is
not exceeded if the following is provided:

DANGER for children and animals
Keep children and pets away from the fireplace and
maintain a minimum safety distance of 0.5 m (1.64 ft)
from the burning flame.
Bio-ethanol must be stored in a safe place with no ac-
cess to children and pets.
Keep children and pets away from packaging material
due to the risk of suffocation.

WARNING of suffocation
As Bio-ethanol fireplaces use oxygen from the room air
when in operation, always keep the room sufficiently ven-
tilated, but avoid draughts. A slightly opened window
often provides sufficient ventilation. If you experience
sudden fatigue and lack of concentration, it may indicate
a possible lack of oxygen.

WARNING of fire and burns
Never leave a fireplace unattended when in operation.
No flammable material must be placed within 1m (3.3 ft)
of the fireplace (eg. curtains, furniture, lamps or decora-
tive items). Do not place any material or item onto the fi-
replace or any part of it.

Any openings of the fireplace must be kept clear at all
times.

The unit becomes very hot while in operation. Never
touch the unit while it operates. Allow it to cool off for at
least 15 minutes before touching it.

The fireplace must only be operated on a solid surface of
non-flammable material, such as tiles or stone. The fire-
place must not be exposed to direct sunlight.

Fireplaces must only be installed in an area protected
against cross flow draught.

Never change or modify any part of your fireplace, or of
any fireplace.

Only fill the burner when it is completely cooled off as
described in this manual.

Never ignite the bio-ethanol in the burner container di-
rectly. Always follow these instructions.

The flame must be extinguished only by using the regula-
ting lever.

Never extinguish the flame with water. Never try to blow
out the flame (Danger of splashing bio-ethanol and dar-
ting flame!)

Do not smoke, eat or drink when handling bio-ethanol.
Never use the fireplace without the safety basin and
avoid draughts around the fireplace.

Never fan the flame (Danger of darting flame!)
