The insert must be installed so that it can always be removed from the surrounding structure if
necessary. During appliance installation, all local regulations, including regulations related to
national and European standards, must be complied with. A professional project should be
elaborated prior to installation. Before the first fire is made, everything must be checked by a
chimneyer, who will issue a written revision report. Save the report for future reference!
4. Safety regulations
For seasonal usage and at bad draught or weather conditions it is necessary to pay particular
attention when putting the appliance into operation. After longer service interruption, checking for
stoppage in flue ways is necessary prior to making fire. Do not allow children to manipulate with
the stove. The stove can be operated only by adults ! During heating, operate all handles and
knobs using tongs, a hook, or a glove (a potholder) –risk of burn injury! During operation,
combustion air and room ventilation air supply must be ensured, especially when another heating
device is used at the same time (ca. 6 m3 for burning of 1 kg of fuel)! If the windows and doors
are well sealed, or if a exhaustion device (a fume hood e.g.) is present, the amount of air may be
insufficient! Place the combustion, ventilation, and heating air regulating grids, if used, so that they
cannot get clogged. It is also advisable to ensure sufficient air humidizing in the room.When
inserting fuel, close the door slowly. This will prevent smoke and fly ash from escaping into the
room..The appliance requires occasional attendance and supervision. It can be used in ordinary
environment. To avoid corrosion during product storage there is an enclosed bag with humidity
absorber. Remove the bag –further see package disposal. For stove installation, safety regulations
according to must be complied, namely:
4.1 Safety distances:
4.1.1 Minimum distance from combustible or heatsensitive objects.
These are furniture, wooden linings, textiles, wallpaper, drying clothes, etc. Minimum safety
distance from the stove is 20 cm on the sides and at the back. The minimum distance is 40 cm for
stoves without double casing and surface cladding. No easily inflammable object can be placed in
front of the stove in the distance less than 80 cm.
4.1.2 Minimum distance between the smoke flue duct and combustible materials.
The minimum distance between the smoke flue duct and doorframe lining, or likewise located parts
of building structures made of combustible materials, or pipings, is 40 cm. This also applies to walls
and especially ceilings with plaster on inflammable base such as lathing, reed lathing, etc. ! If
these distances cannot be kept, fire hazard must be prevented by means of building technical
measures, fireproof claddings, heat resistant insulations and firescreens. 4.1.3 Floor protection.
If the stove is not placed on a floor that is 100 % fireproof, it must be installed on a fireproof
insulating pad, e.g. sheet metal, ceramics, tempered glass, or stone. The pad must cover the floor:
a) at least 30 cm in the front, measured from the outside contour of the stove
b) at least 10 cm at the sides, measured from the edge of the combustion chamber opening.
