1. A layer of embers will form rapidly if the stove is
lit with 2 fuel tablets or 7 - 10 rolled up sheets of
newspaper underneath 2 kg of 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
re, leave the re door ajar, 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 la-
yer of embers will have been formed in the com-
bustion chamber after another 15 - 20 minutes,
and there will be a high temperature in the com-
bustion chamber, which is necessary in order to
be able to continue the combustion.
2.1 Lighting 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 rst few minutes, and the combustion air supply opened to maxi-
mum. Always keep a couple of centimetres of ash in the bottom of the combustion cham-
ber. This will have an insulating eect, and ensures good combustion.
