First usage

A careful start pays off. Start with a small fire, so that the wood burning stove can get accus-

tomed to the high temperature. This gives the best start and any damage is avoided.

Be aware that a strange but harmless odour and smoke concoction may

emanate from the surface of the stove, the first time you fire up. This is because the paint and

materials

need to harden. The odour disappears quickly, but you should check the ventilation and

draught, if possible.

During this process you must be careful not to touch the visible surfaces/glass (very hot!), and it

is recommended that you regularly open and close the door to prevent the door seal

from sticking.

The stove may also produce "clicking noises" during heating and cooling, caused by the

large temperature differences which the material is subjected to.

Never use any type of liquid fuel for kindling or maintaining the fire.

There is a danger of explosion.

If the stove has not been used for a while, follow the steps as if you were using it for the first

time.

NOTE! If air system is connected, the valve must be open.

RAIS /

recommends the following lighting method: See photos on the next page.

• Open the door completely until it is fixed in the open position.

• Start by placing approx. 1,1 kg of wood (4 split kindling sticks) upright into the combus-

tion chamber (photo 1). Add 3 firelighters or the like on the bottom near the sticks.

• Lit the fire (photo 2 and 3)

• Close the door and leave it ajar - pull the door handle (photo 4).

• When the fire has caught the kindling wood, shut the door completely (after approx. 4

min., depending on the draft conditions in the chimney).

• When the last flames are extinguished and there is a nice layer of embers (photo 5), add

2 pieces wood (approx. 1½ kg) after approx. 15-20 min (photo 6).

• Shut the door completely.

• If necessary, keep the door open for a few minutes to start the fire (photo 7).
