1. A layer of embers will form rapidly if the stove is lit wi-
th 2-4 fuel tablets or 7-10 rolled-up sheets of newspaper
underneath approx. 1-1.5 kg dry kindling.
2. Open the air supply as much as possible. This is done using
the handle above the door.
3. After the paper/solid alcohol tablets have caught fire, leave
the fire door ajar about 5-10 cm so that the chimney draws
well.
4. When you can see that the chimney is hot enough to draw
(after 5-10 minutes), close the door. If all the necessary
conditions are met, a thick layer of embers will have be-
en formed in the combustion chamber after another 15-20
minutes.
2.1 Lighting instructions and fuelling intervals
A lot of air is needed when lighting the stove. If you are starting with a cold stove, the door
should be left ajar for the first few minutes and the combustion air supply opened to
maximum.
In order to build up an insulating layer of ash in the bottom of the stove, you should burn 1-1.5
kg of dry kindling when you light the stove the first time.
Always keep approx. 1 cm ash in the bottom of the combustion chamber.
