Operator Instructions Safety Chimney Smoke and Creosote Formation When wood is burned slowly, it produces tar and other organic vapours, which combine with expelled moisture to form creosote. The creosote vapours condense in the relatively cool chimney flue of a slow burning fire. As a result, creosote residue accumulates on the flue lining.
Keep all such liquids well away from the heater while it is in use. CAUTION: Hot while in operation. Keep children, clothing and furniture away. Contact may cause skin burns. Your PACIFIC ENERGY heater is designed for many years of trouble free operation. Over firing the appliance will shorten the life of the product.

Place crumpled newspaper in the centre of the heater and crisscross with several pieces of dry kindling. Add a few small pieces of dry wood on top.
Operator Instructions Restarting After Extended or Overnight Burns Open door and rake hot embers towards the front of the heater. Add a couple of dry, split logs on top of embers, close door. Adjust air control to high and in just a few minutes, logs should begin burning. After wood has charred, reset air control to desired setting.
