1.1 Definition of Safety Notes

WARNING! This symbol alerts you to a potentially hazardous situation. Non-compliance with this warning can cause severe injuries, or even death. CAUTION! This symbol alerts you to a potentially hazardous situation. Non-compliance can cause damage to property or injuries to persons. NOTE! Provides additional tips about using the stove as well as useful information. ENVIRONMENT! Sections marked with this symbol provide information about safe and environmentallyfriendly operation as well as environmental laws and regulations.

A distance of 1 cm is to be maintained between the furnace and the back wall, a distance of 2 cm is to be maintained between the ceiling and the furnace (* in Switzerland 5 cm each, Fig. 1). The thermal output depends on the amount of fuel you put in the stove. When adding more fuel, please do not exceed the maximum fuel load size of 2.5 kg. Exceeding the maximum fuel load size leads to a danger of overheating, which can result in damage to the stove and the risk of a stove fire.

The following safety distances are to be maintained to inflammable respectively heat sensitive materials (for example furniture, wood or plastic panelling, curtains etc.): Within the radiation range of the glass pane (Fig. 1): 120 cm in front and 30 cm next to the furnace. In the area of the flue tube connection (on the wall resp. the ceiling): A radius of 20 cm around the flue tube. NOTE! To attain a thermal output of approx. 8 kWm, burn wood logs that weigh 1.9 kg and are no longer than 33 cm in length for about 45 min.

The size of the floorplate must be larger than the base of the stove by at least 50 cm in front and at least 11 cm at the sides of the stove (Fig. 2).

NOTE! To attain a thermal output of approx. 4 kWm, burn wood logs that weigh 0.7 kg and are no longer than 25 cm in length for about 35 min. Angaben in cm.

WARNING! Flammable flooring materials (e.g., wood, laminate, carpeting,) must be protected with a floorplate made of non-combustible material (e.g., tiles, safety glass, slate, or sheet steel). Fuel Load Sizes and Thermal Output Dimensions in cm The Valencia is intended for intermittent operation, please only apply one fuel layer at a time.

Initial Operation NOTE! During shipment, condensation moisture can accumulate in the stove’s interior, which may possibly lead to the appearance of condensation or water on the stove or flue pipes. Please dry off these damp areas imme diately. The surface of your stove was treated in a sandblasting machine before applying the colour coating. Despite careful and thorough inspection, there may still be some residual material in the stove body, which can fall out when your stove is being installed. NOTE! To prevent any damage, please immediately vacuum up these small steel pellets with a vacuum cleaner. unless absolutely necessary. Make sure the room is well-ventilated and open the windows and outside doors. If needed, use a fan for faster air circulation. If the maximum temperature is not reached during the first heating operation, you may notice an odour for a short period of time the next time the stove is used as well.

Completely open secondary air Position of Control Elements Pull secondary air slider all the way out Lighting the Fire The firing up phase should be as short as possible, since higher emissions can occur during this phase. The slider settings described in Table 1 (see figure on the right) are recommendations that were determined under conformance testing conditions, in compliance with the relevant standard. Depending on the weather conditions and the draught capability of your chimney, accordingly adjust the slider positions for your Valencia to the local conditions. The first time a stove is operated, the heat development causes the emission of volatile components from the coating, sealing strips and lubricants, and smoke and odours can occur. NOTE! The Valencia may only be operated when the fire box door is closed; the fire box door may only be opened to add fuel. At a higher combustion temperature, this one-time process can take between 4 to 5 hours. To achieve this higher combustion temperature, please increase the fuel quantity recommended in Section 7, „Adding Fuel/ Heating with Nominal Thermal Output“, by approximately 25%. WARNING! Never use spirits, petrol, or other flammable fluids to light the stove. CAUTION! To prevent adverse effects on health, nobody should stay in the room(s) during this process Lighting the Fire Procedure Pile up any remaining ash and unburned charcoal into the centre of the combustion chamber Place 2-3 small logs into the middle of the fire box; stack kindling/ignition material and approx. 0.5 kg of dry wood chips on top Open fire box door Light the kindling/ ignition material. Put fire box door in the warming up position (leave slightly ajar). Wait about 5 minutes and then close the fire box door completely. Tab. 1

Adding Fuel / Heating at Nominal Thermal Output More fuel should be added to the fire when the flames from the previous burning off phase have just gone out. Adding Fuel / Heating at Nominal Output Procedure Position of Control Elements Adjust secondary air Set secondary air slider to position 3-4 Add two logs weighing approx. 1.9 kg in total. Place logs with the end to the front of fire box. Only add a single layer of fuel. Open fire box door

Emptying the Ash Drawer As a safety precaution, please make sure that you only dispose of ashes once they are cold. The ash drawer contains the mineral components of the wood (approx. 1%) as combustion residues. Lift the fire grate and tilt it towards the back (fig. 3). The furnace ash dump can then be removed (fig. 4). Fig. 3 Close fire box door Tab. 2 Fig. 4

Technical Data Front view Side view The Valencia, certified in compliance with DIN-EN 13240 : 2001 + A2 2004 and Art. 15 a B-VG (Austria), can only be operated when the fire box is closed; more than one device can be connected to the chimney.
