Outside surface of the fireplace is made of steel plates 4 mm and 2 mm wide. Hearth is made with
replaceable fire clay plates. Hot outside surfaces radiate heat, especially through glass surface.
Fresh combustion air ducts are located on the fuel door and ash can door, as well as on the back side
of the fireplace furnace.
2.1 Air control
Outside air control is located on fuel door of the fireplace.
Primary air control duct on the lower part of fuel door allows ignition and fuel combustion.
Ash compartment should not be over filled. In order to allow free flow of air, ashes should be removed
regularly. Secondary air control duct is located on the upper part of fuel door. Secondary air supplies
oxygen needed for clean combustion. Additional fixed secondary air nozzle is located on the back side
of fireplace.
Secondary air ducts must not be closed. Bad oxygen inlet causes lamp black deposits on glass and
increases harmful emissions, which could cause lamp black fire in chimney.
3. Handling and use
3.1 Firing
Fireplace surfaces are hot during fireplace operation. Touching them may cause burns.
Handles of control kits (air control, doors) are hot during fireplace operation: when handling fireplace
please use the included protective glove.
Before starting the first fire, check if restoring panel (figure 2) is in the proper position and if ash can is
empty and inserted in its position.
Before starting fire, ensure that air control duct is open. Start fire with paper and chippings. Light the
paper.
Color on the fireplace hardens completely after few hours of fire. Odors and smoke are released during
initial operation. Ensure proper air circulation. Open doors and windows. If needed turn on a fan for
better air circulation. Maximum temperature load should be maintained for at least one hour. If
maximum temperature is not obtained during initial operation, odors and smoke may occur again later.
Pregnant women and children should not be in the room during the initial operation. When chippings
establish hot bed of embers, open door and add fuel in the hearth enough for nominal heat power and
adjust air control according to type of fuel.

To keep glass free from lamp black deposits as long as possible, place logs with cut side away from
glass.
Color should not be touched during hardening and no objects should be put on the fireplace too, to
avoid color damaging. The hearth is made of fireclay panels which accumulate heat and radiate it back
to the hearth, increasing thus combustion temperature.
Add smaller quantity of fuel in the hearth during transition period, when temperatures are not very low.
Bad chimney draft may cause operating problems, leading to incomplete outtake of smoke and gas.
This necessitates starting fire in chimney, and if this step does not create necessary draft in the
chimney, fireplace operation is not allowed due to safety reasons.
