Please note: All safety regulations must be
complied with strictly.
Please read carefully the instructions supplied
with the appliance for installation, use and
maintenance, before using the appliance.
The appliance must be installed in accordance
with the laws and requirements of your
country.
All local regulations and the regulations relating
to national and European standards must be
observed when installing the appliance.
The appliance should preferably be installed by
an authorized installer. Installers will be aware
of the applicable regulations and requirements.
The appliance is designed for heating
purposes. All surfaces, including the glass and
connecting tube, can get very hot (over 100°C)!
For operation, use a so-called "cold hand" or an
oven glove.
Safety distances from flammable materials
must be adhered to strictly.
Don't place any curtains, clothes, laundry or
other combustible materials on or near the
appliance.
Don't use flammable or explosive substances
near the appliance when it is in use.
Avoid a chimney fire by having the chimney
swept regularly. Never burn wood with the door
open.
In the case of a chimney fire: close all air inlets
of the appliance and alert the fire brigade.
If the glass in the appliance is broken or
cracked, it must be replaced before you can
use the appliance again.
Make sure there is adequate ventilation in the
room where the appliance is installed. If
ventilation is insufficient, combustion will be
incomplete resulting in toxic gases being
produced and spread through the room. See
the chapter "Installation requirements" for more
information on ventilation.

Installation
requirements
General
The appliance must be connected tightly to a well-
functioning chimney.
For the connection measurements: see the
appendix "Technical data".
Ask the fire brigade and/or your insurance
company about any specific requirements and
regulations.
Chimney (flue)
The flue or chimney is needed for:
Removal of combustion gases via natural draught.
As the warm air in the flue or chimney is lighter
than the outside air, it rises.
Air intake, needed for the combustion of fuel in the
appliance.
A poorly-functioning flue or chimney can cause smoke
to escape into the room when the door is opened.
Damage caused by smoke emissions into the room is
not covered by the warranty.
Do not connect multiple appliances (such as a
boiler for central heating) to the same flue,
unless local or national regulations allow this.
In the event of two connections ensure that the
difference in height between the connections is
no less than 200 mm.
Ask your installer for advice regarding the flue. Refer
to the European norm EN13384 for a correct
calculations for the flue.
The flue must satisfy the following requirements:
The flue or chimney must be made of fire-resistant
material, preferably ceramics or stainless steel.
The flue or chimney must be airtight and well-
cleaned and guarantee sufficient draught.
