4 FIRING

Be careful to read through this section and make sure that all users of the hearth understand the safety

prescriptions before it is put into use.

4.1 Lighting the hearth

At the first start, points - are followed. For later normal use, points - are followed. When repositioning, or

making other changes in the hearth’s surroundings, points - are to be followed.

Note! Do not add fuel if you do not intend to start the hearth immediately; see Section .. Refilling with

fuel below.

. See that the assembly and installation are done according to the instructions in Section .

. Check that the regulator lid lies closely against the burner’s surface and slides easily when the regulator

rod moves it to its respective stop. When the lid is in the closed position, it should cover the entire burner

opening.

. Open the regulator lid completely with the regulator rod. Add fuel according to the instruction ..

Refilling with fuel below. If the hearth is recently used, allow it to cool down for at least  minutes.

Warning! Fuel must never be added in a burning hearth!

. Check that there is no spilled fuel on or outside the hearth. Light the hearth by holding a lighter with

extended tip next to the burner strainer. See that no inflammable material is present within  meter. The

hearth will start immediately, and in a short time it will produce beautiful dynamic yellow flames. If

necessary, the flames’ effect is regulated steplessly with the regulator rod.

Note! At cold start, if fuel has been left long in the hearth, a safety function prevents it from lighting

immediately. In such a case the hearth can be started by holding the lighter lit for about  seconds while

its flame barely touches the burner strainer. If the hearth does not start, add new fuel according to Section

.., keeping in mind that the burner in this case will absorb less than  liters.

Warning! This procedure may increase the wear on the burner and thus reduce its lifetime. Vauni

recommends that tanking be done not long before the hearth is used.

. If the hearth goes out immediately after lighting – repeat the lighting procedure in point  above.

Note ! On the first occasions of firing, some smell may arise – this is quite normal. The smell decreases

gradually after a few firings.

Note ! A clicking sound may occur during firing, at the start or when the fuel level is low and the flames are

smaller. This is quite normal.
