Lighting Instructions And Fuelling Intervals - Morso 1400 Instructions For Installation And Use Manual

2.1 Lighting and refuelling intervals
Kindling the stove requires a large flow of air. When kindling a cold stove, it is useful to leave
the door ajar the first few minutes and open the secondary air supply completely – the right
regulation handle. If the chimney draft is poor, a certain amount of primary air through the
grate can facilitate the kindling. Note however that such air supply may cause a temporary
soot formation on bricks and glass.
1. A layer of embers will form rapidly if the stove is lit with
2 - 4 fire lighters or 7 - 10 rolled up sheets of newspaper,
underneath roughly 1 kg of dry kindling.
2. Open the secondary air supply completely.
3. After the paper/fire lighters have caught fire, leave the
fire door ajar about 2-3 cm, so that the chimney draws well.
The ash door on the 1400 series must remain closed during
normal use and only opened when removing the ash pan.
4. After 5-10 minutes the chimney draft should be estab-
lished, at this point close the fire door. If all the necessary
conditions are met, a nice layer of embers will start to ac-
cumulate after another 15 - 20 minutes.
