EN
ALWAYS OPERATE THIS APPLIANCE WITH THE DOOR CLOSED AND LATCHED EXCEPT
NOTE: Remove all source of gasoline or other flammable vapours and liquids in the vicinity of this or
other appliances prior to lighting.
To reduce smoking when starting the appliance, roll up
some newspaper, place it near the appliance flue and light
it until chimney begins to draw.
When a fire has been established and it is necessary to
reload or adjust the fuel, open the doors slowly to avoid
drawing smoke into the room.
A properly installed Napoleon appliance should not smoke.
If yours does, check the following: Has the chimney had
time to get hot? Are the air intake hoods blocked or
closed? Is the smoke passage blocked anywhere in the
appliance or chimney? Is the smoke flow impeded by too long a horizontal pipe or too many bends? Is it a weak
draft perhaps caused by a leaky chimney, a cold outside chimney, too short a chimney, or a chimney too close to
trees or a higher roof?
