LIGHTING (CONT’D)

Place the flow regulating handle on the "1" position, as soon as the oil enters the burner return to "0" position.

Open the door and pore into the burner 2 to 3 once (75 ml) of lighting gel or wood alcohol.

NOTE : USE OF LIGHTING GEL IS BETTER OF A SAFE IGNITION.

With a long wood match or a BBQ lighter ignite carefully and close the door.

After a couple of minutes (before alcohol goes out) the burner and the chimney are hot, place the flow regulator handle on "1" position.

Note : Do not leave matches or other materials in the burner in order to keep it clean. It allows a better combustion.

IF YOU MISS THE STOVE’S LIGHTING, ALWAYS WAIT FOR THE BURNER TO COOL DOWN TO ROOM TEMPERATURE BEFORE USING BURNING ALCOHOL AGAIN OR ELSE, USE COMMERCIAL LIGHTING MATERIAL (SOLID) OR A PIECE OF COTTON DAMPED IN OIL.

IF, FURTHER TO SOME MISOPERATION, THE BURNER IS FILLED WITH IMPORTANT QUANTITIES OF OIL, ALL OF THE OIL MUST FIRST BE REMOVED BEFORE LIGHTING THE STOVE AGAIN.

CHANGING INTENSITY

Always wait 10 minutes minimum before increasing the flow (between each position). This allows flames to stabilize and avoid suiting up. No waiting is needed to decrease the flow.

Cette précaution n’est cependant pas nécessaire pour diminuer le débit de carburant.
