Adding Fuel / Heating at Nominal Thermal Output More fuel should be added to the fire when the flames from the previous burning off phase have just gone out. Adding Fuel / Heating at Nominal Output Procedure Adjust primary and secondary air. Place logs with one end to the front of fire box. Heating with Brown Coal Briquettes Wood should be used for the warming-up phase and when adding fuel for the first time, see "Warming-up Phase". As soon as a basic glowing firebed is reached, place 2-3 brown coal briquettes on the grate in the middle of the firebox, keeping a finger's width between the briquettes, and use the following procedure and settings: Heating with Brown Coal Briquettes Procedure Open primary air completely. Banking the Fire and Raising the Temperature Keep the stove set as described above until the brown coal briquettes are thoroughly burnt. Then close the primary air (I) and the fire grate. Slide the secondary air slider (II) to position 2/3. While the stove is in operation, the secondary air slider should never be completely closed. To raise the temperature of the fire, stir up the rest of the glowing embers with the fire grate slider. Open the primary air (I) and add new logs to the fire. Heating at Low Thermal Output (during Transitional Seasons) You can vary the thermal output of your Merida by adjusting the quantity of fuel used. Do not attempt to slow down the combustion by reducing the air supply. When heating with wood, this can result in an incomplete burning process and pose the risk of an explosive-like combustion of the accumulated wood gases (deflagration) Position of Control Elements Close primary air slider (I), set secondary air slider (II) to position 3.

[. . . ] The wood burns without a bright, yellow flame, smoulders, or even goes out. / The butterfly valve is closed too tightly. - The quantity of wood is too small and thus the combustion chamber remains too cold. Possible Cause Too much soot is produced; the heat-resisting slabs do not stay clean and free of soot during operation. [. . . ]
