This quality product will provide you with many years of enjoyment due to the fl ame effect and warmth that it provides.

  • Page 8: Safety

    Ensure that the room in which the appliance is situated has adequate ventilation. It is essential that the appliance, the fl ue and combustion air supply are cleaned and inspected annually by a Barbas dealer/specialist. The safe operation of the appliance will thus remain guaranteed. Instructions for use...

  • Page 11: Using The Appliance For The First Time

    UNIVERSAL-6 70 USING THE APPLIANCE FOR THE FIRST TIME GENERAL Allow your home to dry properly, after you have had your chimney breast modifi ed or newly built. Walls which have not been allowed to dry properly are a magnet for dust such as any smoke particles created when stoking up the appliance or suddenly opening the door.
  • Page 12 UNIVERSAL-6 70 4.3 INSPECTION OF THE APPLIANCE BEFORE FIRST USE Check all available functions before using the appliance for the fi rst time. • Check the opening and closing operation of the door. Turn the handle all the way down: Door is locked.
  • Page 13 UNIVERSAL-6 70 • Check whether the 2 retardant plates are located correctly in the supports. • Check the operation of the slider for the regulation of the combustion air intake (middle below the window). • Check whether the ashtray is completely empty.

  • Page 14: Use

    UNIVERSAL-6 70 5.1 VENTILATION If wood is to burn, it needs air. For each kilo of wood that you put on the appliance (door closed), 10 - 15 m of extra air is needed. That means about 35 m per hour! Depending on how the appliance has been installed, the combustion air will either be drawn directly from outside or from the living room itself.
  • Page 15 UNIVERSAL-6 70 5.3 INSTRUCTIONS WHILE STOKING Using the air supply slider you can adjust the air supply for further combustion. Make sure the appliance burns quietly. Note: Once you have got the appliance going, leave the air supply slider in the centre position for optimal combustion.
  • Page 16 UNIVERSAL-6 70 Control range of primary air supply (by grate) Control range of secondary and tertiary air supply Combustion air supply slider Centre position We recommend that you maintain a substantial layer of ash (2 - 3 cm). This not only forms a protective layer for the base of the appliance but also signifi...
  • Page 17 UNIVERSAL-6 70 Ventilation When using the appliance, ensure a good supply of fresh air, particularly if the combus- tion air is drawn from the room itself. Turn on the fl ue gas fan if the fl ue is fi tted with one.
  • Page 18 UNIVERSAL-6 70 GENERAL HEATING TIPS • Burn dry wood only. Damp wood not only burns poorly, it causes more pollution in the appliance (window), the chimney, your room (when opening the door of the appliance, for instance) and the environment. Wood can only be classifi ed as dry if it has been stored under a Dutch barn for at least two years (not covered with plastic).
  • Page 19 UNIVERSAL-6 70 OUTPUT In practice, combustion is all about loss. This entails: • Loss through excess heat leaving the chimney, rather than going into the room. • Loss through insuffi cient combustion, such as CO (carbon monoxide) and soot particles.

  • Page 20: Fuel

    If this happens, there is a risk of fi re. It may also damage your appliance and chimney. BARBAS will not assume liability for damage caused by overheating. Burning one layer of wood can lead to varying outputs. When used correctly, one load will burn in around 45 minutes.

  • Page 22: Maintenance

    UNIVERSAL-6 70 MAINTENANCE • Emptying the ashtray • Regularly check how much ash is in the ashtray. • Make sure the ashtray is never more than ¾ full. If the ashtray is more than ¾ full, it can obstruct the fl ow of air to the appliance.
  • Page 23 UNIVERSAL-6 70 • Paint Check annually, if necessary touch up with BARBAS heat-resistant paint (do not paint when the appliance is in use!) • Parts Individual parts for replacement/accessories are available from your BARBAS dealer Use only original parts • Modifi cations Introduced modifi...
