1.Introduction
Your DOVRE purchase has made you the owner of a high quality product that sym-
bolizes a new generation of energy-saving and ecologically safe heaters, producing
convection heat as well as radiant heat with optimum efficiency. Through the appli-
cation of a revolutionary combustion concept DOVRE heaters achieve astonishing
results in full compliance with strict environmental and safety norms. Also, you will
be enjoying the lovely sight of the fire blazing in the stove.
Our heaters are produced in accordance with ISO 9002, using state-of-the-art pro-
duction means.
In the unlikely event of a malfunction, you can always rely on DOVRE’s after-sales
service.
This heater is designed to be installed in a living room and to be hermetically con-
nected to a flue (chimney).
If the stove is professionally installed, connected to a well-functioning chimney and
sufficiently ventilated, you can take the long-term and trouble-free functioning of
your heater for granted.
Please consult an expert when installing and connecting the heater.
2.Safety
The heater is designed to heat a room, which means that all surfaces, including the
front glass, can get very hot (> 100 °C).
Please do not place any curtains, clothes, laundry, furniture or other combustible
materials on or near the heater.
It is advised to make a fire in the stove with the highest possible intensity right after
it is installed, so as to cure the heat-resistant paint finish. This may involve some
odour production, which will however disappear after a while.
It is necessary to maintain and regularly clean the stove and the chimney for the
stove to function safely and for a long period of time. Please follow the cleaning in-
structions in the chapter concerned.
Is case of a chimney fire, immediately close all air intake vents of the appliance and
alert the fireman.
Broken glass should be replaced before using the heater again.
The stove is specifically designed for burning certain kinds of fuels. In the technical
specifications under cover you can find detailed information concerning this topic. It
is absolutely prohibited to burn fuels other than these, as this may damage your
heater. Moreover, it is ecologically harmful.

3.Installation guideline
3.1. Preparatory measures
The stove should be hermetically connected to a well-functioning chimney, suffi-
ciently enclosed to keep combustible materials (floor and walls) at a distance, and
should be installed in a room with sufficientventilation.
Please inform about national or local norms and regulations concerning this subject.
Your distributor will give you the necessary advice.
You can also consult the fire department and/or an insurance company about spe-
cific demands or regulations.
Please read the technical specifications under cover in this manual before installing
thestove.
3.1.1. The chimney
The chimney (the flue) has a double function:
•It draws air, that is necessary for good combustion, into the stove.
•It functions as an exhaust pipe for combustion gases via thermal or natural
draught. Thermal draught is caused by the difference in heat between the air in-
and outside the flue. The heated air in the flue is lighter than the colder air out-
side the flue and consequently rises up, along with the combustion gases. Natu-
ral draught is caused by environmental phenomena, such as wind.
It is prohibited to connect several heaters to one chimney (for instance the central
heating boiler), unless local or national regulations allow this.
Please check which chimney is to be used for the stove you purchased and whether
your chimney is appropriate for this specific usage. You should consider an expert's
opinion on this matter.
The chimney should meet the following conditions:
•The flue should be made of fireproof material. Ceramic or stainless steel is re-
commended.
•The chimney should be airtight and thoroughly cleaned and should guarantee a
sufficient draught (a draught or negative pressure of 15 to 20 Pa is ideal under
normal circumstances).
•It should run as vertically as possible. Changes in direction or horizontal seg-
ments will disrupt the smoke flow and may cause soot to cumulate inside the
flue (and clog the flue!).
•The chimney's inside dimensions must not be too large in order to prevent the
smoke from cooling off too much. For recommended chimney dimensions, see
the technical specification under cover. Larger dimensions can be used if the flue
is well insulated.
•The flue's diameter should be the same throughout its whole length. Wider, or
especially narrower segments will disrupt the smoke flow and are best avoided.
The same is true for a cover plate or exhaust hood on top of the chimney. The
exhaust hood must not narrow the chimney's outlet and should be designed in a

25O 5 03.27934.000
way that wind will not hinder, but promote the smoke flow.
•Especially if the flue runs through unheated rooms or outside the house, further
insulation is necessary. Metal chimneys, or parts of the chimney outside heated
rooms should always have double-walled, insulated flues. The part of the chim-
ney outside the roof should always be insulated.
•The chimney should be high enough (at least four metres) and should end in a
zone that is clear of nearby buildings, trees or other obstacles. The rule of
thumb here is: 60 cm above the ridge of the roof. If the distance between the
ridge and the chimney measures more than three metres, see the dimensions
stipulated in the illustration below. Depending on the presence of nearby build-
ings or trees, the chimney should be higher.
3.1.2. Ventilation
The burning of wood, charcoal or gas involves oxygen consumption. It is of the ut-
most importance that the room in which the stove is installed should be sufficiently
ventilated.
Insufficient ventilation may disrupt the combustion process and cause the smoke
flow through the chimney to be interrupted, which may lead to smoke emissions
into the room.
If necessary, you can install a ventilation grille to provide a constant flow of fresh air
in the room. This precaution is particularly necessary in well-insulated rooms with
mechanicalventilation.
Ensure not to use other air-consuming appliances, such as heaters, cooking hoods,
bathroom ventilators, in the same room or in the house while the stove is burning;
or make sure to have an extra ventilation grille installed for these appliances.
3.1.3. Floor, walls
A safe distance should be kept between the stove and combustible materials such as
wooden walls and furniture. If you purchased a freestanding stove, this distance
should be at least forty centimetres.
The appliance shall be installed on floors with an adequate load-bearingcapacity.
Combustible floors require sufficient protection against radiant heat by means of a
fireproof protective plate. Rugs and carpets must be kept at a distance of at least
eighty centimetres from the fire.

3.2. Preparing the stove
Please inspect the stove for damage caused during transport immediately after deliv-
ery and notify your distributor in case there are any defects. Do not put the stove
into operation in the meantime.
In order to avoid damaging the stove during installation and to make handling of the
stove easier, it is recommended to remove previously all loose parts (fire-resistant
bricks, grille, ashtray, ...) from the stove. Note the location of those parts while re-
moving them, so that you have no difficulties in re-assembling the parts later on.
The stove will be supplied with the following parts:
•A set of legs
•A connection collar with fastening brackets
•A "cold hand" to remove the ashtray
•A small shovel to remove ashes
3.2.1. Assembling and installing the legs (see sketch)
Assemble both parts of the legs at the requested length
using the M6 bolts and rings. Tilt the stove backwards
and mount the legs on the pre-installed M8 bolts on the
bottom plate of the stove.
3.2.2. The smoke outlet
The stove can be connected to the chimney at the rear or at the top.
Depending on the position chosen, one opening can be covered with the blanking
plate supplied, the other one can be equipped with the connection collar supplied.
Use the fixings supplied and be sure to tightly seal the connection collar ande the
blanking plate to the stove by means of the kit or paste supplied.

25O 7 03.27934.000
3.2.3. Assembling the knob for deashing
You can simple place the knob on the axis for deashing.
3.3. Finishing
When the stove is placed in the final position and hermetically connected to the
chimney, you can replace all of the loose parts.
Your stove is now ready for use.
Attention: never light a fire with the inner plates or refractory stones removed.
3.4. Packaging materials
Packaging materials should be disposed of in a responsible way and in accordance
with governmental regulations.

25O 8 03.27934.000
4.Instructions for use
4.1. Fuel
The only suitable fuels for this stove are wood, brown coal briquettes and charcoal.
No other fuels are allowed to be burnt, as they can inflict serious damage to your
stove.
Do not burn any treated wood either, such as scrap wood, dyed wood, impregnated
or preserved wood, plywood or chipboard. The fumes of these, as of synthetic mate-
rials, old papers and household waste, are highly polluting for both your stove and
your chimney, and for the environment. Theyalsocouldcausechimneyfires.
Wood
Hard woods, such as oak, birch-and fruit-trees, are the ideal fuels for your stove.
The wood must have dried for at least two years in a covered and well-ventilated
place. Split logs will dry faster. Dry wood should contain no more than twenty per-
cent moisture.
Wet logs are unsuitable for burning, as they do not produce enough heat and all of
the energy is lost in the process of evaporation. Moreover, the burning of wet wood
causes badly smelling gases to be released and a thick layer of tar will deposit on
the stove panels and in the chimney.
Browncoalbriquettes
Brown coal briquettes burn in more or less the same way aswood does. You should
only burn briquettes on a bed of charcoal in your stove.
Charcoal
There are several categories of anthracite coal. Some characteristics may be legally
determined. For instance anthracite “A” has to contain less than 10% of volatile sub-
stances, anthracite “B” less than 12%. The ash content may range from 3 to 13%.
For a good operation of your appliance, the use of anthracite “A” with a low ash con-
tent is recommended. A combustible with a high ash content has a lower net heating
value. Moreover, the ashes have to be removed more frequently and the fire will go
out faster. The recommended calibre is 12/22 or 20/30.
4.2. Lighting a fire
In order to create sufficient draught and to prevent
smoke from being emitted into the room, the chimney
should be warm enough before lighting a fire. A cold
chimney can be heated up by lighting a ball of paper
above the fire plate.
To kindle the fire in the stove you can use paper and/
or firelighters and small pieces of wood.
Slightly open the door and pull the air slides wide
open. See the sketch on how to use the air slides.
It is important that the kindled fire should burn in-
tensely. You can then throw larger pieces of wood onto
the fire, and close the doors. When the fire has stabi-
lized and is glowing enough, you can put the logs, the
charcoal or the brown coal briquettes on the fire.

4.3. Burning wood
The best way to control the fire is to completely close the lower air slide, which you
use to get the fire started, and to regulate the air supply with the upper air slide
only. In case the air supply through the upper slide seems insufficient, or if you
would like to fan the fire, you can partially open the lower air slide for a while.
Always keep the stove doors tightly closed. Never let the doors open when the fire is
burning.
Add extra fuel when necessary. Never add too much fuel. It is best to fill the stove
for one third and to top it up on a regular basis.
Always open the filling door slowly and for a short space of time. Before filling up,
the charcoal bed should be carefully spread open. Check whether the coals are glow-
ing enough just behind the log retainer, so that the added fuel will immediately
catch fire. If necessary you can open the lowerair slide for a while.
Open stacking will make the logs burn
very intensely, as the oxygen can easily
reach every part of the fire. This method
of stacking is applied when burning
wood for a short while. Compact stack-
ing will make the fire burn slower, as
the air can only reach the outer parts of
the fire. This stacking method is best
usedwhen burning for a longer while.
Low intensity fires cause tar and creo-
sote to deposit in the chimney after a
long period of time. Tar and creosote are highly combustible substances. Thicker
layers of these substances might catch fire when the temperature in the chimney
increases suddenly and steeply. Therefore it is necessary for the fire to regularly
burn very intensely, so that thin layers of tar and creosote immediately disappear.
Low intensity fires also cause tar to deposit on the stove panes and doors.
When it is not too cold outside it is better to let the stove burn intensely for just a
few hours a day.
4.4. Burning coal
WHEN BURNING CHARCOAL THE AIR SLIDE ABOVE MUST ALWAYS BE KEPT CLOSED.
As soon as the fire is sufficiently stable and there is enough glow, the first shovel of
coals can be put onto the fire. Complete the filling once the coals have caught fire.
Make sure you do not quench the fire by putting too much coals onto it at a time.
Once the fire has burned for a while, adjust the air slide at the bottom of the door.
Before adding some extra coals, open the air slide below completely. Use the shaker
grate or the supplied shovel, and shake till the glowing parts fall into the ash plate;
then add the coals. After a few minutes, adjust the air slide. Add some more coals
until you can only see the glow of the previous filling.
When the fire basket or the cast-iron plate fins are red-hot, you are heating too in-
tensely.

4.5. Ash removal
The bottom part of the fire compartment is equipped witha
heating or shaker grate, through which the ashes fall into
the ashtray. By moving the shaker rod to and from, and/or
by using the shovel, you can remove the ashes adequately
and gather them in the ashtray. The ashtray can be removed
from the appliance by means of the supplied “cold” hand
(see picture).
Relatively speaking, burning wood produces little ash and it will not be necessary to
remove it each time daily. Moreover, wood burns better on a bed of ash.
When you heat with coals, the ashes should be removed on a regular basis and the
ashtray should be emptied frequently. The ashes must NEVER reach the underside of
the heating grate.
4.6. Low heating (for devices suitable for continuous use)
To use the device as a ‘continuous fire’, you can select the primary and secundary
air scoops in such a way you get the right burning speed. Always make sure there’s
enough glow on the heating bottom.
4.7. Extinguishing the fire
Stop fuelling the fire and let it burn out.
Damping a fire by closing the air slides involves the release of noxious gases. You
should let the fire burn out and keep an eye on it as long as it is still glowing.
4.8. Weather conditions
Attention!
Mist and heavy fog will block the chimney's smoke outlet and may lead to smoke
emissions into the living room. It is best not to use the stove under these weather
conditions.

25O 11 03.27934.000
5.Maintenance
It takes only little effort to keep your stove in good condition.
Regularly check whether the sealing cord stillcloses the doors tightly enough.
The painted or enamelled cast iron mantle can be cleaned with a moist, soft cloth,
when it is almost cold.
Minor paint damage can be touched up with a can of spray paint. Your dealer can
supply you with the correct spray product. For enamel damage, small repair kits of
appropriate colour are available with your dealer.
During the first use after repainting your unit might give off some slight odour.
However, this will disappear quickly.
The glass can be cleaned with a number of glass cleaning products available on the
market. Your installer can also supply you with appropriate products. However,
never use abrasive or corrosive cleaning products.
A tight upper air slide can be adjusted with the two
screws just above the air intake holes on the front plate
(see sketch).
At the end of the heating season, seal off the chimney
with a ball of paper. You can then thoroughly clean the
stove on the inside.
If necessary, replace the sealing ropes and use fire cement to fill up possible leaks.
Remove the fire plate for better and more thoroughcleaning.
You should have your chimney swept by an expert before the heating season begins.
It is useful to check the chimney for soot during the heating season as well. Check-
ing and maintaining the chimney is a statutory requirement.
When all of the above advice is heeded, you will be able to fully enjoy your stove.
