OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
PLEASE NOTE: THE INFORMATION GIVEN IN THIS MANUAL IS TYPICAL
FOR ALL THREE MODELS UNLESS STATED.
1. GENERAL
1.1 This stove is designed for domestic heating and should only
e used for this purpose, and in accordance with the
b
manufacturers operating instructions.
It should be installed by a competent installer, in
accordance with the relevant local and national
regulations.
1.2 The stove should only be used to burn approved fuels and
should not be used with liquid fuels or used as an
incinerator.
1.3 As with all heating stoves the surfaces will become very hot
when in use, therefore due care should be taken when near
the stove. If it is to be used in the presence of young
children, elderly or infirm persons a suitable fireguard
should be used. Care should also be taken with the
placement of combustible items near the stove as
conducted and radiated heat could cause a fire hazard.
1.4 Due to the high temperature of the convected air above the
stove we recommend that no valuable photographs,
paintings, porcelain or other items are placed in this area.
Such artefacts may be damaged by long term exposure to
fluctuating temperatures.
1.5 Additional ventilation may be required for the safe use of
this stove should be kept free of any obstructions, both
inside and outside the building, at all times.
1.6 Have your Stovax product serviced annually by a
competent service engineer, and if repairs are required use
only Stovax approved spare parts.
Do not make unauthorised modifications or changes to the
