Page 32: Carbon Monoxide Detectors
First Fire Your new RAIS should be run-in gently for top performance and to prevent paint dam- age, cracks in the firebrick, and excessive wear and tear. Start with a small fire (never overload the firebox) to allow the materials to get accustomed to the higher tempera- tures, and then gradually increase the intensity. -
Page 33: Lighting And Stoking
Lighting and Stoking To light the stove, use alcohol briquettes or similar, as well as approx. 2 kg of firewood, split into kindling sticks. Set the air damper to the fully open position. Be carefull not to place the firewood too close to the opening and glass. - Page 34 When the flames are clear - after approx. 5-10 min. - close the door.

Page 35: Fuel Caution
Never use gasoline, gasoline-type lantern fuel, kerosene, charcoal lighter fluid, naphtha, engine oil, or similar liquids to start or freshen up a fire in your RAIS stove. Keep all such liquids well away form the stove while it is in use. - Page 36 Maintaining the installation. Establish a routine for the fuel, wood burner and firing tecnique. Check daily for creosote build-up until experience shows how often you need to clean to be safe. Be aware that the hotter the fire the less creosote is deposited, and weekly cleaning may be necessary in mild weather even though monthly cleaning may be enough in the coldest months.
