Yeoman YM-CL8HB manual USING THE Appliance FOR THE FIRST TIME, Condensation, Normal Running

USER INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING

Properly installed, operated and maintained this appliance will not emit fumes into the room.

Occasional fumes from de-ashing and refuelling may occur.

Persistent fume emission is potentially dangerous and must not be tolerated.

If fume emission does persist:

—Open doors and windows to ventilate the room.

—Allow fire to burn out and safely dispose of fuel from the appliance.

—Check for chimney blockage and clean if required.

—Do not attempt to relight until the cause of the emission has been identified and corrected. If necessary seek expert advice.

All open flued appliances can be affected by temporary atmospheric conditions which may allow fumes to enter the house. Because of this it is recommended that an electronic carbon monoxide detector conforming to BSEN50291 be fitted and maintained.

2.USING THE Appliance FOR THE FIRST TIME

2.1To allow the appliance to settle and fixing glues and paint to fully cure:

—Operate the appliance at a low temperature for first few days.

2.2Do not touch the paint during the first period of use.

2.3During this time the appliance may give off some unpleasant odours:

—Keep the room well ventilated to avoid a build-up of fumes.

CONDENSATION

CAUTION WHEN FILLING

2.4When filling the boiler with water for the first time, the cold water entering the water jacket can cause condensation to form on the surfaces of the appliance (inside and outside).

2.5In certain conditions this condensation could result in a considerable amount of water, in some cases enough to fill the bottom of the appliance. This could be even worse if the house has recently been re-decorated, wet plastered or any other work has been undertaken which could result in high humidity.

2.6Precautions must be taken to ensure that this build up of condensate does not overflow from the appliance onto any surrounding fabric of the room e.g. carpets.

NOTE - THIS CONDENSATION IS NORMAL DURING FILLING AND DOES NOT INDICATE A FAULTY OR LEAKING STOVE.

NORMAL RUNNING

2.7During normal running this condensation should be minimal if the system is fitted with the low limit thermostat as detailed in 1.22 (above). This low limit thermostat prevents the system pump from running until the stove has reached temperature.

SEASONAL USE

2.8If this appliance is unused for lengthy periods of time it should be periodically checked to ensure that condensation is not building up within the stove.

NOTE – THIS CONDENSATION IS NORMAL AND DOES NOT INDICATE A FAULTY OR LEAKING STOVE.

If the stove is going to be unused for very long periods of time it is recommended to drain the system.

3.RECOMMENDED FUELS

3.1Wood Logs

Burn only seasoned timber with a moisture content of less than 20%. To ensure this allow cut wood to dry for 12 to 18 months.

Poor quality timber:

—Causes low combustion efficiency.

—Produces harmful condensation.

—Reduces effectiveness of the airwash and life of the appliance.

Do not burn construction timber, painted, impregnated

/treated wood, manufactured board products or pallet wood.
