[. . . ] Your stove was treated with a special environmentally friendly lacquer. the lacquer surface is still soft at the time the stove is shipped. The lacquer will harden when your stove is used for the first time. The lacquer surface may not be touched when it is heated for the first time. The stove must be initially heated to a high temperature for at least 1. Visible vapors may appear during the hardening of the lacquer. For this reason it will be necessary to open windows during initial operation in order let the vapors escape into the outdoors. PLEASE TAKE NOTE: It takes several heating sessions before for your stove releases only the pleasant smell of burning wood. Lay one or two logs of wood on the wood chips. Dry, well cured and natural wood, wood briquettes. Maximum amount of fuel to be added: 1, 3 kg wood or 1 kg wood briquettes. The wood must be dry (relative wood moisture < 15%) and untreated and the right amount of wood must be burned in order to ensure a clean fire that releases only small amounts of emissions. The burning of rubbish especially plastic is prohibited. Figure 4: Regulate the air slider As soon as the wood logs are burning well, you can regulate the heating capacity with the air slider. (Slider set to the maximum ("AUF") setting produces maximum heat ­ see Figure 2. ) When adding wood to the fire, follow the same procedure as when igniting the fire: Open the air slider, carefully open firebox door, lay wood on the fire, close the firebox door. Wait until the added wood catches fire and is burning. Prepare everything you need for starting the fire-- soft wood chips, igniter materials (such as Austroflamm lighter sachets), uncoated paper, wood. Lay uncoated paper on the floor of the firebox.
