CARE AND OPERATION

FUEL DOOR

The gold or black door option is purchased separately, but is required. Install the door per instructions provided in kit (see page 28 for ordering information).

WARNING: DO NOT OPERATE THIS STOVE WITHOUT THE DOOR PROPERLY INSTALLED AND SECURED AS THIS WILL PRODUCE EXTREME TEMPERATURES (OVERFIRING). THE DOOR AND GLASS GASKETS PROVIDE IMPORTANT SEALS, AND MUST BE MAIN- TAINED (SEE MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS ON PAGE 19). OVERFIRING CAN RESULT IN DAMAGE TO THE APPLIANCE OR A HOUSE FIRE. OPERATION WITH THE DOOR OFF OR OPEN NULLIFIES THE SAFETY LISTING AND VOIDS THE WARRANTY.

Door Operation: The door handle assembly opens and securely latches the fuel door closed. To open the door, rotate the coil handle to the 9:00 position until door re- leases. To close and latch, hold the coil handle in the 9:00 position, close the door, then rotate the handle to the 6:00 position. See illustration below.

CAUTION: WHEN OPENING THE DOOR, DO NOT EX- TEND IT BEYOND ITS NORMAL TRAVEL. OVEREX- TENDING THE DOOR TO A FURTHER OPEN POSITION CAN PUT EXCESSIVE STRESS ON HINGE AREA OF DOOR AND HINGE PINS AND MAY RESULT IN BREAK- AGE.

Gold Doors: Gold doors are plated with 24-karat indus- trial grade gold and will require curing to harden the gold. Once it is cured it will never tarnish. Prior to burning this appliance the doorframe should be cleaned thoroughly with a good window cleaning solution and a soft cloth. Do not use any metal polishes or abrasives to clean the gold surface. Any oils or fingerprints left on the gold could become permanent blemishes if the stove is burned prior to their removal. After the first few fires, the

gold will cure. The ¾” (19 mm) door rope gasket is made of highly durable high temperature resistant mate- rial. It must be kept in good condition. Do not leave the stove burning with the door ajar or open. Leaving the door ajar or open while the stove is burning will cause excessive heat build up in the stove (overfiring) and could ignite surrounding combustibles as well as damage the stove (such damage is not covered by the manufac- turers warranty).

GLASS

The Glass is a super heat resistant ceramic that with- stands continuous temperatures up to 1390° F. This tem- perature is well beyond the temperatures in which you operate your stove. If the glass ever becomes damaged in any way, replace it, using only 5 mm ceramic glass (part # G2000-7).

This appliance is designed to provide a flow of air over the inside of the glass, which along with high heat helps keep it clean. When operating the stove on low for ex- tended periods of time, the glass may get dirty. A short, hot fire (15 - 20 minutes) will help clean off much of the normal buildup (see Troubleshooting, pages 21-23). A commercial glass cleaner designed for stoves is recom- mended for cleaning.

The glass should be cleaned thoroughly with glass cleaner and a soft cloth BEFORE the stove is burned.

USE CONTROL SETTINGS THAT WORK FOR YOU The fuel, the amount of heat you want, the type of instal- lation you have and how long you wish the fire to burn are all variables that will affect the control settings. The same control settings in a variety of installations will pro- duce different results.

Familiarize yourself with your stove by trying different settings so you can learn how much heat to expect and how long the fire will burn. It may take a week or two to learn, but your patience will be rewarded by the warmth and pleasant satisfaction that only a wood fire can pro- vide.
