General Information - ebios-fire Quadra Inside Automatic I SL Installation And Operating Manual

IMPORTANT NOTE
Pursuant to the German Equipment and Product Safety Act (GPSG) and
our statutory duty to draw attention to the heat generated by this product,
please note the following:
The calorific value of 96% ethanol is approx. 29,600 kJ/kg. With a fuel
throughput of 0.5 l/h (approx. 0.4 kg/h) the heat released is approx. 3,300
W (Quadra Inside Automatic I SL). The Quadra Inside AutomaticI II SL con-
sumes 1 l/h and the resulting combustion heat is 6,600 W.
However, please note that a generous fresh air supply is necessary when
operating the decorative fireplace, as otherwise the carbon dioxide gener-
ated will exceed the permissible concentration in the ambient air.
The incoming fresh air is usually cooler than the ambient air to be heated,
resulting in a loss of energy. The effective heat output from a bioethanol fire
is thus very low, and so decorative fireplaces burning bioethanol are not
considered to be heating systems.
This is a decorative fireplace that is not intended for heating or continuous
operation. Nevertheless, it should be taken into account that heat is gener-
ated as a by-product of the combustion process. This can cause increased
heating in the room where the fireplace is installed. Read the safety instruc-
tions and measures for rear ventilation carefully.
Please note the information and warnings given in this operating
manual.

1. GENERAL INFORMATION

Young children, the elderly and the frail: As with all naked flames, a guard
should be used to protect the above. Risk of burns! Never leave such
individuals unsupervised near an ebios-fire when it is lit or when the fire
has just gone out. ebios-fires must always be operated under supervision!
Your ebios-fire should be installed and operated in accordance with the
relevant national and local regulations, in particular the fire safety regula-
tions of the particular federal state or the fire protection regulations of the
VKF (Switzerland).
Ensure that your ebios-fire is set up on a stable base and select an instal-
lation location where the burner will not be exposed to movement due to
impacts, etc., when in operation.
Please note that you should never top up with fuel manually by pouring it
into the fire tray by hand. Fuel is always supplied to the fire directly from
the canister, via the integral pump!
Only persons familiar with the appliance and the safety instructions and
who have been trained how to operate the fire should be allowed to change
the fuel canister.
The ebios-fire is not a heater. It is a decorative fire. Sufficient ventilation
must be provided. The appliance switches off automatically after 8 hours
for safety reasons.
Bioethanol is a hazardous substance and the quantities you may store are
subject to regulations. It is essential to comply with the regulations that
apply at the place of use.
