SMOKE SMELL OR SOOT BUILD-UP

Because it is a solid-fuel burning device, your SP 6000 Multi-Fuel may emit a faint odor. If this smell is excessive, or noticeably increases over time, or if you notice an unusual soot build-up on walls or furniture, check your exhaust system carefully for leaks. All joints should be properly sealed. Also clean your stove, following instructions given under “MAINTENANCE”. If problem persists, contact your dealer.
