12. When opening the furnace chamber door, any incorrect handling or insuf-
ficient draught may induce smoke. Always ensure that the furnace cham-
ber door may be opened only slowly, first just to a small extent, and then
fully after a few seconds. In addition, if you intend to put additional fuel
into the fire, before the opening of the door only there may be only ember
bed in the burning space, i.e. no flames may be visible.
13. In heating mode, the surfaces, inspection glasses and handles may be-
come very hot. Warn children of these threats, and keep them away from
the fireplace when heated.
14. Ensure that the ashtray should be fully inserted, and in particular never
remove hot ash from the fireplace (fire risk).
15. In transitional periods, chimney draught may drop, resulting in the imper-
fect suction of the generated flue gases. In such cases, the fireplace is to
be filled with smaller quantities of fuel, preferably wooden chips or wood
wool, and it is to be commissioned under control with the stabilization of
the chimney draught. The fire grate should always be kept clean.
16. After the heating season, it is recommended to have the equipment in-
spected by an expert. It is also advisable to clean the routes of flue gases
and pipes.
17. Should repairs or reconditioning be needed, please, contact your dealer in
a timely manner with the accurate specification of the article and serial
number. Only original Wamsler parts may be used.
18. As the air needed for burning is drawn from the room where the fireplace
is located, ensure that sufficient air supply is received via the gaps by the
windows and external doors. Make sure that 4 m
3
of air should be pro-
vided to each kW of rated performance. For this fireplace, it means that
the room has to be at least 20 m
in volume. If the room is smaller, suffi-
cient air supply can be secured by opening air connections to other rooms
with air openings (at least 150 cm
2
).
19. Ensure to keep proper lateral and rear distances from combustible parts
and materials. The associated values are specified in these user instruc-
tions or the model plate.
20. The fireplace may not be modified.
21. The connection of the fireplace to the chimney is not permissible if the
effective height of the chimney is less than 4 m, or 5 m with multiple load-
ing. To the chimney that the fireplace uses, a maximum of two other fire-
places, ovens may be connected.
22. In the event of any chimney fire, immediately close all the openings of the
equipment, and call the fire service. Never try to extinguish the fire with
water. Thereafter, always have the chimney inspected by an expert.
