IMPORTANT NOTES
General
Before lighting the stove check with the installer that the installation work and commissioning checks described in
the installation instructions have been carried out correctly and that the chimney has been swept clean, is sound and
free from any obstructions. Aspart of the stoves’ commissioning and handover the installer should have shown you
how to operate the stove correctly.
Use of fireguard
When using the stove in situations where children, aged and/or infirm persons are present a fireguard must
be used to prevent accidental contact with the stove. The fireguard should be manufactured in accordance with
BSEN 8423: 2002.
Chimney cleaning
The chimney should be swept at least once a year for smokeless fuels and a minimum of twice a year for woodand
other fuels. It is important that the flue connection and chimney are swept prior to lighting up after a prolonged
shutdown period.
If the stoveis fitted in place of an open fire then the chimney should be swept one month after installation toclear
any soot falls which may have occurred due to the difference in combustion between the stove and the open fire.
In situations where it is not possible to sweep throughthe stove the installer will have provided alternative means,
such as a soot door. After sweeping the chimney the stove flue outlet and the flue pipe connecting the stove tothe
chimney must be cleaned with a flue brush.
