Smoke at soot smell
This can be caused by down-draught in the chimney and most often
happens in specic wind directions. The chimney may be too short
for the ridge or trees may have grown and are creating turbulence.
Remember not to open the door while there are ames.
The stove is difcult to light and may die out
There may be a number of causes. The most typical are:
The damper is not sufciently open.
The rewood is too wet.
The draught in the chimney is too small or maybe it is blocked or
leaking.
The ember layer was too small/incinerated and did not give enough
heat to light the logs. Possibly give some start-up air to the re by
opening the damper (pushed down and to the right) to get the stove
going again. Then the damper has to be closed again (back to posi-
tion between left and the middle).
Depending on the problem it may be necessary to contact the dea-
ler, installer or a chimney sweep.
The glass soots up
The wood is too moist.
Lack of draught in the chimney.
Check that the damper is not closed.
Door is closed too early at lighting (point 3 section 2).
