•Refuel little and often for clean, efficient burning.

5.8Experience establishes control settings to suit personal preferences

5.9Do not burn large amounts of fuel with the Air Damper Control* on low settings for long periods of time. This reduces the build up of tar and creosote in the appliance and flue system.

5.10When in use, burning the appliance at high output for a short period also reduces tars and creosote.

5.11You must burn only anthracite or smokeless fuels suitable for use in open appliances.

5.12Do not burn bituminous coal, ‘petro-coke’ or other petroleum based fuels as this invalidates the product guarantee.

6.Burning tips

6.1Fuel Quality (Wood)

Use wood with a moisture content of less than 20%. Seasoned logs have the bark beginning to lift and peel away and cracks radiating from the centre. They feel lighter than fresh cut wood of a similar size and sound hollow when struck against each other. Logs should not feel damp or have moss and fungal growths.

Symptoms related to wet wood:

—Difficulty starting and keeping a fire burning well

—Smoke and small flames

—Rapid creosote build-up in the chimney

—Low heat output

—Short burn times, excessive fuel consumption and blue/grey smoke from the chimney

• Burn at high output for a short period to avoid large build-ups of tars and creosote within the appliance and the flue system

• Use Stovax Protector chimney cleaner to reduce this problem

6.2 Fuel Quality (Solid Fuel)

• Use recommended solid fuels approved for use with open appliances.

Symptoms related to unsuitable fuels include:

— Difficulty starting and keeping a fire burning well
