8.1. Tips before firing up
Open a door or window close to the wood burning. It here is a ‘storm’ in the stove coming
from the chimney, it is advisable to place a screwed‐up piece of newspaper between the
upper baffle plate and the chimney, set the paper on fire and wait until you hear a
‘rumbling’ noise in the chimney. This means there is definitely a draught in the chimney and
avoid smoke in the room.
8.2 ‘Top‐down’ Lighting
Open the door an lock it using the small bracket at the bottom of the door.
Start by placing 1 piece of split log – approx. 1 kg – at the bottom of the upper
combustion chamber (
UCC
) in front of the dome to the small front glass.
Place approx. 1.2 kg of dry firewood, split in to kindling sticks behind the log and a
couple of alcohol briquettes (fire lighter) or similar.
Light the fire and close the upper convection plate of the stove.
