7. Lighting the Fire
The firing up phase should be as short as possi-
ble, since higher emissions can occur during this
phase.
The slider settings described in Table 1 are recom-
mendations that were determined under conform-
ance testing conditions, in compliance with the
relevant standard. Depending on the weather con-
ditions and the draught capability of your chimney,
accordingly adjust the slider positions for your As-
mara to the local conditions.
NOTE!
The Asmara may only be operated when
the fire box door is closed; the fire box
door may only be opened to add fuel.
WARNING!
Never use spirits, petrol, or other flamma-
ble fluids to light the stove.
