CONGRATULATIONS!
You have chosen the RIKA “Tavo”, a welldesigned and stylish stove.
In addition to design we place great emphasis on advanced combustion technology,
quality material and good workmanship.
The RIKA “Tavo” has been manufactured
using state-of-the-art technology and has
been approved according to European
Standard DIN EN13240 as a room heater
for solid fuels. This stove is suitable for multiple connections to the chimney.
When setting up and connecting the stove
be sure to observe current legislation,
regional building regulations, local building
regulations and installation standard DIN
18896. The operational capability and life of
your stove depends on the correct operation, care and observance of the instructions
contained in the set-up, installation and
operating instructions.
CAUTION! CHILDREN AT PLAY!
Your stove will get hot, especially the top
surface, panels and protective glass! Ensure
that children remain at a safe distance when
the stove is operating in a hot condition.
UNSUITABLE/NON-PERMITTED FUELS:
The Federal Immission Control Law and the
agreement in accordance with Art. 15 a BVG strictly forbids the incineration of rubbish and waste in domestic stoves. Anyone
who uses the solid fuel stove as a private
waste incineration unit to incinerate household waste, chemically treated wood remnants or waste paper, is not only acting irresponsibly towards the environment, but
may be punished under the law.
The behaviour of your stove as far as the
low emission of dangerous substances is
concerned is greatly affected by the selection of the correct types of fuel! (see
Section 3.1)
SUCTION EQUIPMENT
If the set-up, installation and operating
instructions are not observed, then the warranty is invalidated. The owner of the RIKA
Tavo must not modify it in any way!
Suction equipment (e.g. ventilation equipment, dust hood), that is operated in the
same room or ventilation connection, can
affect the supply of combustion air.
2. AUFSTELLUNG, INSTALLATION UN D
ERSTINBETR IEBNAHME
Only a specialist fitter must set up the
stove.
Please refer to our separate Set-up and
Installation instructions for the RIKA
“Tavo”, that form part of these operating
instructions.
The RIKA “Tavo” must never be operated
without a fully functioning water connection!
During first commissioning the paintwork
of the Tavo will harden under temperature.
This can cause unpleasant odours. Avoid
breathing in the fumes directly. During this
phase ensure that the installation space is
well ventilated. Carefully wipe off any condensation on the Tavo or on the panels or
residues will become fused into the paintwork.
ENGLISH
8
Please see Section 4 “First commissioning and functional checks” in the Tavo
set-up and installation instructions!
Together with your dealer please fill in the
Commissioning Report in duplicate. One
copy should be kept with the operating
instructions and will be useful in future if
any questions arise concerning your Tavo.
The duplicate must be filled in, signed and
returned to RIKA MetallwarengmbH & Co
KG, to ensure that your warranty and guarantee are valid!
Th RIKA Tavo stove is a purely wood-burning device. You should only use fuel prescribed by the Ordinance on Small Firing
according to Federal Immission Control Law
(1.BimSchV) and the agreement according
to Art. 15 a BV-G:
FIREWOOD
Only dry wood burns without harming the
environment!
Dry wood is natural chopped wood with a
maximum residual moisture of 20% (with
respect to the absolute dry weight), which
is normally achieved after two year’s in a
well ventilated storage place.
WOOD PELLETS
Note that wood pellets increase in volume
in the stove! When using them please refer
to the relevant product instructions!
Do not use waste products, chips, wood
shavings and sawdust, bark and backing
plate waste or laminated and surface treated wood.
The combustion residue of incorrect fuels
not only leads to uncontrolled air pollution,
Important: Only an authorised installation
company must carry out the connection and
commissioning of the heating system.
The incineration of rubbish invalidates the
guarantee!

Firewood that is too small does not burn
for long and is only really useful for starting.
but has a negative effect on the functioning
and life of the chimney and stove. It results
in increased breakdown and faster wear,
which means expensive repairs and even
replacement of the stove. Chimney sweeps
have a good eye for environmentally damaging signs of this sort. The chimney sweep
should check the chimney every six months
and if the stove is operating correctly and
only dry wood is used, the chimney sweep
will not even have to remove soot.
OPERATING ELEMENTS:
Example: PRE- HEATING
For the correct and safe operation of the
stove you must ensure that the chimney
can create the required delivery pressure.
This is especially the case in seasonal transition periods (e.g. autumn or spring) or
during periods of bad weather (e.g. strong
winds, fog, etc.).
Hold a match or lighter flame by the opened door. If the flame is not drawn into the
opening, then a draught must be created in
the chimney by the forced development of
heat (e.g. by paper or kindling wood). If this
does not work then commissioning of the
stove should be halted!
When the stove is in operation the grate
door should be kept closed to prevent hot
gases escaping.
Due to the strong de-gasification process
of wood fuels and a weak chimney draught,
opening the door can lead to smoke and
hot fumes escaping. We recommend that
the stove door should not be opened until
the fuel load has burnt down to hot
embers.
When using stoves that draw their air supply from the room in which they are installed, ensure that there is an adequate supply
of fresh air. During operation any separate
combustion air line should not be modified
or closed off.
Note that the surfaces of the Tavo become
very hot when the stove is operating (e.g.
the metal front or the ceramic glass, etc.).
When operating the stove we recommend
you use the heat resistant gloves supplied.

ENGLISH
10
PRE-HEATING
This section applies to all fuels mentioned
in section 3.1. To heat the RIKA Tavo stove
the maximum quantity of air is required.
Raise pre-heater damper fully (Fig. 1)
Turn the combustion air regulator fully to
the right in a clockwise direction (Fig. 2)
To light the fire we recommend an auxiliary
fire lighter. After the auxiliary fire lighter has
kindled, build up the firewood and leave
the grate door slightly ajar, to prevent the
build up of condensation on the cold
panels. Re-close the door after 10 minutes.
If a strong fire has developed then the first
layer of firewood can be laid on the fire.
CONTINUOUS HEATING
The pre-heating damper and combustion
air controller are still in the position for
strong heating (pre-heating). After the preheating phase the actual continuous heating begins. Carefully open the stove door
and gently rake the embers flat to prepare
for the first layer of wood. The maximum
height that the grate can be filled to is two
levels. To reach the nominal heat output
note the fill quantities given in Section 3.1.
On reaching the heat output proceed as
follows:
Push in pre-heating damper fully
Turn back combustion air controller 1/2
turn in an anti-clockwise direction
In this way all the combustion air is led in
front of the protective glass and from
behind to the fuel. This brings about an
ecological and economic combustion
whilst maintaining the glass as clean as possible.
Output control:
Wood combustion can only be controlled
to a limited extent. The output can be
influenced to a certain degree by the fre-
quency with which wood is laid on the fire
and the quantity. Large logs (circumference
30cm) reduce the speed of combustion and
favour uniform combustion. Small logs (circumference 20cm) burn faster and very
quickly lead to a higher output. With the
correct filling of wood and the prescribed
output control an environmentally friendly
combustion can be achieved for a period of
60 minutes. Avoid overfilling with fuel
otherwise the “Energy output” will be too
great and the exhaust gases too abundant.
Wood does not provide a weak or continuous fire!
Wood is a long flame, highly gaseous fuel
that has to be burnt quickly and with a continuous supply of oxygen. Combustion
must not be inhibited in any way.
The negative consequences of this is:
smouldering, condensation and tar formation, heavy soot formation, smoke formation (emission of dangerous substance) and
the danger of explosion.
Extended combustion, however, is possible.
If the flame profile gets smaller and more
wood embers or fire embers are formed
then the heat output of the fire can be
extended by closing, the air regulator and
air damper. This also prevents cooling of
the fire.
Note that the surfaces of the Tavo become
very hot when the stove is operating (e.g.
the metal front or the ceramic glass, etc.).
When operating the stove we recommend
the use of the heat resistant gloves supplied
RETENTION OF EMBERS
If no more fuel is added and no more flames are formed, re-set the damper and
controller:
Push in pre-heater damper fully
Turn combustion air controller fully back in
an anti-clockwise direction
This can also prevent heat- and flow losses
through the chimney.
3.3 CLEANING AND MAI NTENANCE
11
ENGLISH
To ensure correct operation the RIKA Tavo
must be cleaned at least once per year or as
required.
GLASS CERAMIC WINDOW
The glass ceramic window should only be cleaned with commercially available glass cleaner
(preferable with RIKA glass cleaner). Spray a
small quantity of the cleaner on to the cold surface of the window and rub in. Then wipe off
with a damp cloth and dry with a clean cloth.
Under no circumstances must the glass ceramic
window be treated with corrosive or scouring
materials.
CLEANING THE HEAT EXCHANGER AREA
Cleaning should only be carried out when the
stove is cold!
Gently lift the front panel above the stove door
and pull towards the front. Then loosen the
four wing nuts of the cover plate (behind the
front panel). The heat exchanger pipes can now
be cleaned using the cleaning brush supplied.
ASH REMOVAL
Ash removal should only be carried out when
the stove is cold!
For wood stoves daily ash removal is not necessary.
Ash is caught in the ashtray beneath the combustion chamber. Ash removal can be carried
out with the ash damper provided.
To do this the vertical grille must be tipped forward.
The ashtray is removed through the open stove
door.

This information supplements our “General
terms and conditions”.
Our products and accessories are high-quality products that are certified by independent test centres. The are manufactured
according to current heating technology
standards and are carefully assembled using
high-quality, commercially available materials.
As the stoves are technical devices special
technical expertise is required for their
purchase, setting up, connection and commissioning. This assumes that on set-up and
first commissioning the installation specialist will observe the manufacturer‘s instructions as well as the current building regulations and technical rules. Careful observation of the operating instructions will ensure
that you enjoy many years of incomparable
heating enjoyment. Specific components
must be checked regularly and replaced or
rectified if necessary.
For newly manufactured products the statutory warranty period of the manufacturer, with respect to the end-user, for initial
material defects - except in those cases in
which the deficiency of a component is
involved - is 24 months from the assumption of risk.
Please note the restrictions or loss of warranty and guarantee on pages 8 and 9!
In addition to the legal provisions RIKA also
offers a voluntary guarantee of 5 years from
date of manufacture for all castings with
respect to fault-free, fit for purpose, materials. The guarantee covers free repair of
the device and the faulty parts.
Replacement free of charge can only be
claimed for parts that demonstrate failure
in workmanship or materials. All further
claims are excluded. The guarantee does
not cover parts that are subject to normal
wear and tear. Owing to the nature of their
application wearing parts have only a limited life. Wearing parts are especially those
parts that have direct contact with the
stove, e.g. grate fittings, fire bricks, glass,
seals, etc. Please note that the limited life of
wearing parts can also have an effect on the
guarantee. Wear and tear caused by use is
not an initial material defect and does not
therefore fall under the guarantee.
Also excluded are all damage and deficiencies relating to devices and their components that are caused by external chemical
or physical effects, transporting, storing,
improper assembly (see Section 2) and use,
incorrect operation, use of unsuitable fuel
and mechanical, chemical, thermal and
electrical stress.
The manufacturer does not assume liability
under the guarantee for direct or indirect
damage caused by the device. It is not possible to claim for withdrawal or reduction,
unless the manufacturer is unable to remedy the deficiency or damage within a reasonable period. If a claim under the guarantee arises, please contact your installation
