Notes on fuel

Fireplace ethanol is a flammable liquid and presents a real danger if not used in direct compliance with all directions and safety instructions. Keep the fuel out of reach of children and pets. Never let children come into contact with fuel, the fireplace or fire accessories.

First aid measures in an emergency

• Eyes: Immediately rinse the affected area with clear water. The eyes should be rinsed for at least 15 minutes. Then visit a doctor immediately. Contaminated clothing should be washed before reuse.
• Ingestion: If the subject is fully conscious and can swallow, have them drink water or milk to dilute the fuel. Never put anything in a person's mouth if he or she is unconscious or has cramps. See a doctor immediately. Induce vomiting only on the order of the doctor or the poison emergency center.
• Skin: Wash the skin with soap and water for at least 15 minutes.
• Inhalation: Remove affected person from the area to a location with fresh air. If the person has stopped breathing, start mouth-to-mouth resuscitation immediately and call an ambulance.

Handling and storage of fuel

• Keep the ethanol fuel away from heat, sparks, open flames and sources of ignition.
• Do not store ethanol fuel in direct sunlight. Ensure that it does not heat up. Always store the fuel in a dry, cool place.

Note: If storing fuel in a very cold place, it may be difficult to ignite. Fill it at room temperature.

GENERAL INFORMATION

Bio-ethanol fireplaces are the environmentally friendly solution for a real fire without the need for a chimney or gas supply. Suitable for homes without a chimney. All our fireplaces are ventless, smokeless and ash-free, so no chimney or gas is needed. Our fireplaces are designed with stainless steel and/or black steel with a modern concept. A warm, peaceful and relaxing environment can be created with our lantern.

Bio-ethanol fireplaces can be placed anywhere in the house or flat. You can enjoy the benefits of a real fire without having to install a chimney. Since bio-ethanol burns almost residue-free, ventilation through an open window is sufficient in most cases if the room is large enough.

Before using the device, read the operating instructions carefully and keep them in a safe place. If this device changes hands, the operating instructions must be included when it is passed on to the new owner.

INSTALLATION

• Free-standing fireplaces and table-top appliances must be installed in a safe, level, stable and non-combustible place.
• Wall fireplaces must be mounted on a flat, solid and stable wall with noncombustible wall cladding in accordance with the instructions.
• Built-in fireplaces must be installed in a non-combustible cavity.

(1) This fireplace is operated with bio-ethanol which has a low flash point and is volatile. Have an expert installer check the environment before installing the unit.
(2) Installation is carried out on the basis of this manual.
(3) The environment within 50 - 60~cm of the chimney should be lined with heat resistant materials.
(4) Make sure that the table fireplace/freestanding fireplace is on a flat table/ floor where it will not be touched when walking around. Keep children away from the fireplace.
(5) Ensure that the burner is not exposed to strong wind.

OPERATION

Notes on the Fuel

Note: Ethanol is not included and must be purchased separately from a DIY store or fuel retailer.

• The fuel used in the fireplace should be stored in a shady and safe place.
• Use 95% bio-ethanol refined from plants.

Note: Use only bio-ethanol as fuel.

Ignite Fire

(1) Slowly pour the fuel into a clean, cool burner or burner pot. Use the funnel for filling. Fill the burner to a maximum of 2/3. Do not fill too much fuel and do not allow the fuel to come into contact with objects other than the inside of the burner. Replace the bottle cap and place the bottle far away before lighting. Store the fuel bottle in a dry, cool room. Do not store it in places where it may be exposed to direct sunlight and warm up.

Note: Spilled fuel may stain floors or furniture.

(2) If fuel has been spilled, clean and dry the affected areas before ignition.
(3) Do not add fuel while the fire is burning or the burner is still hot. Wait 10-20 minutes for the burner to cool down before refilling with fuel.
(4) Use a fireplace lighter (not supplied) to ignite the fuel.
(5) Make sure that all persons present are 20 - 30cm away from the fireplace when you ignite it.

Note: The flame begins to flicker slowly. The flame may initially be low and almost invisible, so allow the flame 15 minutes to reach the optimum level.

(6) We recommend that you leave the fireplace burning until all the fuel has been burned.

Extinguish fire

The fire will automatically extinguish when the fuel has burned out. If you want to extinguish the fire while burning, use the supplied stick to extinguish the fire.

Note: Do not try to blow out the fire or extinguish it with water. The fire may continue to burn even when the flame is no longer visible. Make sure that the fire has been extinguished completely before leaving the room.

Re-ignite fire and top up fuel

Before refilling the fireplace with fuel, observe the following:

• Extinguish the burner with the extinguishing tool supplied or allow the fuel to burn out completely. Allow the unit to cool for 30 minutes before refilling with fuel.
• Wait until the chimney and burner have cooled down to room temperature. The remaining flame may be difficult to see. Make sure that the flame is extinguished and that the chimney no longer emits heat.
• Fill the burner to a maximum of 2/3. Do not overfill it.
• Light the fuel with a fireplace lighter. Keep face and body away from the fireplace during ignition. The flame begins to flicker slowly. The flame may initially be low and almost invisible, allow the flame 15 minutes to reach the optimum level.
• Never leave a burning or hot fireplace unattended. Keep children and pets away from the fireplace.

Note: Ethanol fuel may cause serious burns, property damage or even death if used improperly and unsafely. Do not dispose of burnt fuel. Dispose of unused fuel and empty fuel bottles in accordance with local hazardous materials regulations. We recommend that you always burn all the fuel in the burner.

Notes for emergencies

Note: The flame extinguisher should always be near the device so that the flame can be extinguished in an emergency.

Extinguish the flame in the burner container with the flame extinguisher as shown below.

Make sure that the flame in the burner is completely extinguished.

CLEANING AND CARE

• The fireplace and reservoirs must be cleaned regularly. Use warm water and soap.
• Marks can be best removed with a soft cloth and a mixture of lukewarm water and a small amount of soap. We recommend cleaning the stainless steel regularly to prevent contamination.
• Do not put the water inside the burning tank, as the ceramic wool inside will absorb the liquid.

Note: Never use chemicals, steel-wool or scrubbing sponges as stainless steel surface can be scratched by these items. The manufacturer will not be held responsible for any damages resulting out of false use and/or cleaning of the product.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Problem Possible cause	Solution
Soot formation Wrong fuel	el Use only 100 % bio-	ethanol.
	The burner orifice is covered by foreign objects.	Expose the burner opening and place the decoration only around the burner slot.
Burning time too short	wrong fuel (e.g. gel, alcohol).	Use only 100 % bio- ethanol.
	The burner is not completely filled.	Extinguish the burner, refill it after 30 minutes of cooling time.
Flames too high Wrong fuel	fuel (e.g. gel, alcohol).	Use only 100 % bio- ethanol.
The flame does not go out when the flap is closed.	This can happen with large burners because ethanol vapour can get through the smallest opening.	Repeat the closing process several times and faster to interrupt the oxygen supply.
