K. Building A Fire
Before lighting your rst re in the appliance:
1. Conrm the bafe and ceramic blanket are correctly
positioned. They should be even with the front tube and
resting on all tubes. See page 12.
2. Remove all labels from glass.
There are many ways to build a re. The basic principle is
to light easily-ignitable tinder or paper, which ignites the fast
burning kindling, which in turn ignites the slow-burning re-
wood. Here is one method that works well:
1.
Open the Burn Rate Air and Start-Up Air Controls fully.
2. Place several wads of crushed paper on the rebox oor.
Heating the ue with slightly crumpled newspaper before
adding kindling keeps smoke to a minimum.
. Lay small dry sticks of kindling on top of the paper.
4. Make sure that no matches or other combustibles are in
the immediate area of the appliance. Be sure the room
is ventilated and the ue unobstructed.
5. Light the paper in the appliance. NEVER light or rekindle
re with kerosene, gasoline, or charcoal lighter uid; the
results can be fatal.
6. Once the kindling is burning quickly, add several full-length
logs to 4 inches (76 - 102mm) in diameter. Be careful
not to smother the re. Stack the pieces of wood 1/2 to
1 inch apart (1-25mm); near enough to keep each other
hot, but far enough away from each other to allow air ow
between them.
7. Set the Burn Rate Air Control and activate the timer sys-
tem (ACC).
8. When ready to reload, It is best to fully open both the Burn
Rate Air and Start-up Air Controls before reloading.
• This livens up the coalbed and reduces excessive emis-
sions (opacity/smoke).
NOTE:
• Build re on brick rebox oor.
• Do NOT use grates, andirons or other methods to support
fuel.
It will adversely affect emissions.
Odors and vapors released during initial operation.
• Curing of high temperature paint.
• Open windows for air circulation.
Odors may be irritating to sensitive individuals.
CAUTION
Fire Risk.
Keep combustible materials, gasoline
and other ammable vapors and liquids
clear of appliance.
WARNING
• Do NOT store ammable materials in the appliance’s
vicinity.
• DO NOT USE GASOLINE, LANTERN FUEL,
KEROSENE, CHARCOAL LIGHTER FLUID OR
SIMILAR LIQUIDS TO START OR “FRESHEN UP” A
FIRE IN THIS HEATER.
• Keep all such liquids well away from the heater while it
is in use.
• Combustible materials may ignite.
• Open door slowly so that ash or smoke does not exit ap-
pliance through opening.
• Large logs burn slowly, holding a re longer.
• Small logs burn fast and hot, giving quick heat.

As long as there are hot coals, repeating steps 6 through
8 will maintain a continuous re.
