6.6. CONTROL OF COMBUSTION
PRIMARY AIR
The fireplace stove is equipped with two flanged side holes Ø100 mm
for the inlet of primary air which ensures combustion and helps keep
the glass clean.
. Moving the lever to the left provides the full aperture, and more rapid
combustion, while moving it to the right closes the opening, with slower
burning.
SECONDARY AIR
Adjustment is performed using the same lever as for the primary air.
Secondary air comes out in proportion to the primary air. This balance
is pre-calculated; the user cannot change it, as this may cause incorrect
adjustment. This will prevent excessive combustion.
The use of damp or treated wood emits a higher quantity of
smoke than normal that can dirty glass faster. Also the low
performance of the flue pipe can jeopardise glass cleanliness
since smoke remains in the combustion chamber longer than
normal.
6.7. EMERGENCY SITUATIONS
If for any reason the stove fire needs to be suddenly and quickly put
out or a fire in the flue pipe needs to be put out, proceed as follows:
If time allows, remove the grate and ashes, using a metal
container.
Put the fire out rapidly by means of a dry carbon dioxide (CO
2
)
extinguisher.
