condition.
4.15 If you require more information about Stovax products visit
our web site www.stovax.com
4.16 When using the stove for the first time again it is best to
burn the fire at a low output for the first day of use. This
will allow the new seals to settle and all new fixing glues
and paint to fully cure.
4.17 During this time, the stove may give off some unpleasant
odours, and we recommend that you keep the room well
ventilated during this period to avoid a build-up of fumes.
4.18 If you require help, your local Stovax dealer will be able to
carry out all of your service and maintenance requirements
for a reasonable cost.
