OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
Do not use the door as a rest or support when refuelling
or adjusting the air controls as this could cause
p
ermanent damage to the appliance.
5.1 Do not use the appliance at maximum output for prolonged
periods of time, or over fill the firebox with fuel, as this
could result in over-firing. If the connecting fluepipe,
appliance flue collar or top plate glow red with heat the
appliance is being over-fired and the air controls should be
closed to reduce the output.
5.2 If a chimney fire occurs shut all air controls immediately to
close the appliance down, and evacuate all persons from
the building before calling the fire brigade. Do not re-enter
the building until it is confirmed safe to do so.

Following a chimney fire do not use the appliance until it is
inspected, by a HETAS (GB only)/INFO (Eire) registered
installer, to confirm that the appliance is safe to use, or
make any repairs required before re-use. Only genuine
Stovax replacement parts are to be used to keep your
appliance in safe and efficient working order.
