stove up the chimney and emitted safely to the
atmosphere. Do not run at full output for at least
24 hours.

are left with the customer. Ensure to advise the cus-
tomer on the correct use of the appliance with the

If the mantlepiece protrudes further than 100mm
from the fireplace, then it will be necessary to have
further clearance to the top of the stove. The dis-
tance the mantle protrudes past the 100mm should
be added to the clearance.
For example, if the mantle protrudes 200mm, the
clearance to the mantle should be 650mm. (See
Figs 11 & 12).
If there is a studded wall surrounding the fire-
place as in Fig.13, ensure the clearances in this
Fig are adhered to.
