Prior to set up

Floor bearing capacity
Ensure that the substructure is capable of bearing the weight of the stove prior
to set-up.
Note
No modifications may be made to the firing installation. This also leads to loss
of warranty and guarantee.
Floor protection
A base is required (glass, sheet steel or ceramic) if the floor is combustible
(wood, carpet, etc.).
Flue pipe connection
Flue pipes pose a particular source of hazard regarding gas leaks and
Q
fire. Get the advice of an authorised specialist company for the layout and
assembly.
Please observe the corresponding installation guidelines for walls panelled
Q
with wood when connecting your flue pipes to the stove,
Observe the formation of flue gas (atmospheric inversion) and draughts
Q
when the weather is unfavourable.
Infeed of too little combustion air can lead to smoke in the rooms or to flue
Q
gas leaks. Hazardous deposits in the stove and chimney may also occur.
If flue gas escapes, let the fire burn out and check whether all the air inlet
Q
openings are free and the flue gas pipes and the stove pipe are clean. If in
doubt notify the master chimney sweep since draught malfunctions may be
connected to your chimney.
Stoves type 1 (BA 1):
Suitable for multiple occupancy. (Note the different country regulations)
Q
These may only be operated with the combustion chamber door closed.
Q
The combustion chamber door is to be kept closed when the stove is not
Q
in operation.
Note
on ROOM-AIR DEPENDENT and ROOM-AIR INDEPENDENT OPERATION:
Your stove has been tested as a room-air dependent stove according to EN
14785 and takes all the combustion air via the central air intake on the back
of the stove, either from the installation room or an external air supply.
In combination with room-air installations (e.g. controlled ventilation and
venting systems (extractors etc.) it must be ensured that the stove and
the room air system are monitored and safeguarded mutually (e.g. via a
differential pressure controller etc.). The combustion air infeed of approx. 20
m3/h must be ensured.
Please observe the respective local regulations and rules in consultation with
your master chimney sweep. For changes after the printing of this manual, we
can not assume any liability. We reserve the right to change without notice.
