Blomus 65330 owner manual Use the lever to completely open the burner

Owner’s manual/Installation instructions Í 13

1.Use the lever to completely open the burner.

2.Insert the funnel spout into the opening of the bur- ner. Fill the measuring pit- cher with the desired amount of ethanol. Holding the funnel with one hand, slowly pour the ethanol into the funnel up to the level marker in the burner. Take care not to overfill.

3.Close the bio-ethanol container and put the ethanol, the measuring pitcher and the funnel aside, keeping a safety distance of at least 1 m (3.3 ft) around the fire- place.

6.2 Igniting the flame

WARNINGS! Risk of fires and burns!

•Never ignite the bio-ethanol directly.

•Only ignite the ethanol when the burner is filled up to the level marker.

•Ignite the ethanol immediately after filling the burner to prevent the risk of flash ignition from ethanol vapour.

1.Open the burner completely with the lever.

2.Dip the corrugated end of the prong into the ethanol in the burner.

3.Keeping a safe distance, ignite the moistened end of the prong using a stick lighter.

4. Transfer the flame by dip- ping the prong into the etha- nol inside the burner. If the flame does not ignite, repeat the process. Allow about 15 minutes for the flame to reach its operating temperature.

5. Adjust the flame height as desired using the lever on the lower left hand side of the fireplace body.

Ignition failure

1.In cool conditions the bio-ethanol may fail to ignite the first time. It may be necessary to repeat the ignition pro- cess several times as detailed in paragraph 6.2 until the flame burns steadily and constantly.

2.If after several attempts the bio-ethanol fails to ignite due to a very cold environment, the burner should be ca- refully emptied to avoid the risk of flash ignition of the va- pour and the odour of bio-ethanol in the room. Dispose of the fuel in accordance with the instructions in para- graph 10.1.

6.3 Refill

WARNING! Risk of fires and burns!

Never pour ethanol into a burning flame or into a hot burner!

1.Preferably wait until the fire is completely out or extinguish the flame with the flame regulator (see paragraph 6.4)

2.In the very early and very late stages of burning the flame may be of a blue colour, making the flame not well visible. Always make sure that the flame is really shut off and the burner has cooled down for at least 15 minutes before touching, filling or refilling the burner.

3.To refill proceed as described in paragraph 6.1

4.To ignite the flame proceed as described in paragraph 6.2

6.4Extinguishing the flame WARNING! Risk of fires and burns!

• Never extinguish the flame with water! (Risk of deflagration)

• Never try to blow out the flame! (Risk of a darting flame)

If possible let the fuel burn out completely until the bur- ner is fully emptied. This avoids the risk of flash ignition of the vapour and the odour of bio-ethanol in the room.

To extinguish the flame proceed as follows:

1.With a quick movement close the flame regulating lever located on the lower left hand side of the fireplace body.

2.Wait until the flame is fully extinguished.

3.Dispose of the remaining fuel in accordance with the instructions in paragraph 10.1.
