After having ignited the heater, always check whether the combustion
chamber
¿ is level, by sliding it slightly to the left and the right by its handle
´. This should be a smooth movement. If the combustion chamber is not level,
this will cause smoke and soot to develop.
D ADJUSTING THE FLAME
After you have ignited the heater, it will take 10 to 15 minutes for the flame to
become visible in the upper end of the combustion chamber. Only then can you
check whether the flame is correct. Too high a flame may cause smoke and soot,
whereas too low a flame causes smells. The page opposite the folding page shows
the minimum and maximum permissible burning heights of the flame (Fig. Q).
The flame can be adjusted continuously with the flame regulator
· (Fig. L).
If the flame remains low after the adjustment, the wick height must be
adjusted
(refer to Section F).
Too low a flame may also be caused by:
̈ insufficient fuel (fill the tank)
̈ poor fuel quality (contact your dealer)
̈ insufficient ventilation (leave window or door ajar)
̈ wastage of the wick (contact your dealer or replace the wick,
refer to section M)
E SWITCHING OFF THE HEATER
Let the heater burn at its lowest setting for approximately one minute. Then
slowly slide up the flame regulator
·. The flame will extinguish by itself.
In cases of emergency: switch off the heater with the safety device
³ (Fig. M).
F ADJUSTING THE WICK HEIGHT
After some time the flame may no longer be high enough (Section D). In that case
you can adjust the wick height to improve the flame. To do this, follow the next
procedure:
Open the door
ƹ at the front of the heater.
Slide up the wick height lock
¸ one step to position 2 or 3 (Fig. N).
If this does not have the required effect, let the heater burn until all fuel is used
(Section H).
If the flame still remains too low after that and the wick is already set to
position 3, contact your Zibro Kamin dealer, or replace the wick
(Section M).
If the flame rises too high after the adjustment (Fig. Q), lower the wick height lock
setting one position. Otherwise there is a chance of smoke and soot production.
