PART A - OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE 1. Safety Information • Operate only with doors fully closed. If door is left partly open, gas and flame may be drawn out of the opening, creating risks from both fire and smoke. • The cookstove is not designed to be used when the door is open. Open the door only to startup or to reload the stove. -

Page 10: Fuel
3. Fuel 3.1 Recommended Fuel Wood burner performance depends greatly on the fuel used. Good firewood has been cut to the correct length for the appliance, split to a range of sizes and stacked in the open until its moisture content is down to 15% to 20%. Proper fuel makes it easier to regulate heat and keep the wood burner and flue in better condition. -
Page 11: Cooking
It is prohibited to put or store: alcohol, gasoline, liquid fuel, flammable materials, ashes, paper and wood in the accessory compartment. 4.2 Cooking Cooking can be done in the stainless steel oven, using the cooking grills and the trays provided with the cookstove. -
Page 12: Maintaining Wood Fires
4.5 Maintaining Wood Fires 4.5.1 General Advice Wood burns best in cycles. A cycle starts when a new load of wood is ignited by hot coals and ends when that load has been consumed down to a bed of charcoal about the same size as it was when the wood was loaded. -
Page 13: Adjusting Primary And Secondary Air Inlet
Raking the coals is useful for two reasons. First, it brings them near where most of the combustion air enters the firebox. This will ignite the new load quickly. Secondly, the charcoal will not be smothered by the new load of wood. When the embers are simply spread inside the combustion chamber, the new load smoulders for a long time before igniting. - Page 14 CLOSE FERMÉ OPEN OUVERT Figure 5: Cold hand Figure 6: Air inlet control 4.6.1 Regulating the air during lighting Opening the air inlet completely is mandatory during the lighting, and it is recommended to leave the door ajar during lighting as well, in order to avoid condensation of fumes on the glass. Wait enough time (until the hearth has warmed up) before starting to regulate the air inlet.

5. Cookstove Maintenance This cookstove will give many years of reliable service if used and maintained properly. Some of the internal components of the firebox, such as vermiculite and baffle will wear over time under intense heat. Defective parts should always be replaced with original parts. Firing each load hot to begin a cycle will not cause premature deterioration of the cookstove. - Page 16 Never use an abrasive cleaner on the window. Do not clean the window when it’s hot. Do not force, hit, slam, or do anything that could weaken the glass door. Do not use the cookstove if the window is missing, cracked, or broken. 5.5.1 Replacing the Glass Door and the Glass Gasket The glass used in the this cookstove is 4 mm thick, and was tested to reach temperatures up to 1400º...

Page 17: Chimney Maintenance
6. Chimney Maintenance 6.1 Why Sweep the Chimney? Wood smoke can condense inside the chimney and the chimney connector, forming a flammable deposit called creosote. If the creosote builds up in the evacuation system, it can combust when the fire is very hot. An extremely hot fire can progress to the extremity of the chimney. Severe chimney fires can damage even the best chimneys. -

Page 25: The Exhaust System
9. The Exhaust System 9.1 General Information The exhaust system, consisting of the chimney and the pipe that connects the cookstove to the chimney, acts as the engine that drives the wood heating system. Even the best appliance will not work as securely and adequately as expected if it is not connected to an adequate chimney. The heat contained in the exhaust gas, which goes from the cookstove to the chimney connector, then to the chimney, is not lost heat. -

9.2.2 Masonry Chimney The cookstove may also be connected to a masonry chimney, provided the chimney complies with the construction rules found in the building code enforced locally. The chimney must have either a clay liner or a suitably listed stainless steel liner. If the masonry chimney has a square or rectangular liner that is larger in cross sectional area than a round 6"... -
Page 27: Combustion Air Supply
Combustion Air Supply For the cookstove draft to work correctly, the room must have an outside or fresh air inlet, with a minimum of 4" diameter, from the house exterior to the room, that is at least sufficient to replenish the volume of air that comes out of the chimney flue. In well insulated houses an air inlet must be fitted through the outer wall that is not exposed to the prevailing winds, depending on the surrounding conditions of the house. - Page 28 Vertical or horizontal Vertical installation, Vertical or horizontal installation, prefabricated prefabricated interior installation, masonry exterior exterior chimney chimney chimney The rules below are based on the rules found in the installation code of a solid fuel burning appliance. It is imperative to carefully follow these installation instructions or those of the local code.
