Heating during the transitional phase If the stove is heated during the transitional phase, i.e. when outdoor temperatures are higher, a sudden increase in temperature can cause disturbances in the chimney draft so that the heating fumes are not fully drawn off. In this case, the fireplace must be filled with smaller quantities of fuel and operated with the primary air slider/regulator so that the existing fuel burns more quickly (and flames are produced), thereby stabilizing the draft in the chimney. Ending the heating phase When the fire has burned down to the embers, close the combustion air slider. The wood-burning stove will continue to emit heat for a long time. Otherwise, the stove will cool down too quickly due to the flow of (cold) fresh air, i.e. the thermal energy will escape through the chimney. Chimney fire If the incorrect type of fuel, or fuel that is too damp, is used, the build-up of soot in the chimney can cause a chimney fire. Clause all air vents on the stove and call the fire brigade immediately. After the chimney fire has burned out, have the chimney checked for cracks and pressure tightness by a specialist.

10. Cleaning

Cleaning must only be carried out after the wood-burning stove has completely cooled down.

Cleaning the glass Wood-burning stoves are designed so that the supply of secondary air also serves to clean the glass. When the stove is operated correctly, the glass generally remains clean. However, a fine layer of soot can often not be avoided if poor quality fuel (damp wood) is used or the supply of combustion air is insufficient. Only clean the glass when the stove has cooled down. To do so, use a damp piece of paper dipped in ash. This will enable you to remove any soot from the glass panel. Then moisten a clean piece of paper and wipe the glass panel clean. The manufacturer shall not be held responsible for any damage caused by the use of aggressive chemical substances.

On all models of the P and C series, the right and/or left opening of the glass panel is the same. To clean the glass panel open the two locking latches at the top and bottom when the panel has been moved down completely (see picture on the left).

After cleaning, snap the panels shut and fully close the two locking latches.

Clean the painted surfaces with a soft, dry cloth – do not use abrasive cleaners, degreasing agents, damp cloths, etc. under any circumstances. Remember that, despite being painted, the wood-burning stove is not rustproof .
