The ebios-fire may only be set up in rooms and locations where there are
no hazards due to the site, structural conditions and type of use. The floor
area of the installation space must be of a design and size such that the
ebios-fire can be operated properly and as intended.
Only permitted and sufficiently strong transport aids may be used to trans-
port the ebios-fire. During transport, there must not be any fuel in the
burner channel.
DAMAGE DURING TRANSIT should be reported immediately to your supplier.
Protect the cladding and visible elements of the fireplace furniture from
soiling and damage during installation and transportation.
It is advisable to keep appropriate fire-fighting equipment on site for liquid
fires (fire class B).
Important notice: In Switzerland, special specifications apply to the
hourly rate of fuel consumption. Please inform yourself in advance of local
provisions.
2.4 INSTALLATION LOCATION
When setting up or installing the ebios-fire, please ensure that the appli-
ance is not located immediately adjacent to major heat sources (heaters,
stoves etc.) or in rooms subject to high temperatures (e.g. saunas).
Your ebios-fire must not be installed:
1. In stairways, unless they are in residential buildings with two or fewer
apartments.
2. In hallways with general access.
3. In garages
4. In rooms in which highly combustible or potentially explosive substances
or mixtures are processed, stored or manufactured in quantities that
would be hazardous in the event of ignition or explosion
5. In insufficiently ventilated rooms.
6. In areas accessible to the public which are not supervised.
7. In areas which are not protected against transverse ventilation
8. On (unbuilt) tables, pieces of furniture, shelves etc.
9. In the open air without protection from the elements, and exposed to
high humidity levels
10. In the entrance areas of hotel lobbies where draughts are likely to be
more prevalent, and where substantial differences in air pressure can
be expected.
When setting up the ethanol canisters, always ensure that they cannot topple
over. Furthermore, these canisters should only ever be stored in cupboards
or cabinets where any accumulation of combustible gases is avoided. There
must not be any combustion sources in the immediate vicinity of the ethanol
containers and pipework.
