  • Page 10: Using The Appliance For The First Time

    UNILUX-6 65 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 11 UNILUX-6 65 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 12 UNILUX-6 65 • Check whether the 2 baffl e 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 13: Use

    UNILUX-6 65 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 14 UNILUX-6 65 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 15 UNILUX-6 65 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 16 UNILUX-6 65 Modifi cation Do not make modifi cations to your appliance. Any alteration to your appliance, of whatever nature, will also invalidate your warranty. Only open the door for fi lling and lighting the appliance and for removing the ash. Keep the door shut at all other times.
  • Page 17 UNILUX-6 65 5.6 INCREASE THE FLUE DRAUGHT Attention: Not possible if the appliance is equipped with a 45 degrees chimney connection. If there is too much fl ow resistance in the chimney, causing insuffi cent fl ow of of the fl ue gasses, one can increase the chimney draught.
  • Page 18 UNILUX-6 65 5.7 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 UNILUX-6 65 5.8 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

    UNILUX-6 65 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.
