opening should be 4 inches wider and 3 inches higher then back of the fire-
place structure (including burners hanging from the bottom of the fireplace)
- refer to Diagram 2. This allows for faster installation and the added space
allots for air circulation and provides an escape for the hot air.

Operation Instructions
Step 1: Adjust the sliding lid to its widest opening. Fill the burner with the ethanol,
watch carefully till you reach under the level of the “Max” line. Do not overfill or spill.
CAUTION: Please ensure your pebbles or logos are not covering the opening in case of
accidental spillage.
Any spilled ethanol must be immediately removed with an absorbent tissue and
cleaned with water to prevent ignition outside the burner reservoir.
Fuel must be kept in safe distance (min. 1 meter / 40 inches) to the fireplace. Do
not place fuel in front of the fireplace.
Step 2: Use a long match or a long-end lighter to ignite. When igniting, keep a safe
distance at arm’s length.
CAUTION: Fuel will burn low at first. Please allow 10-15 minutes to reach the optimal
temperature and flame height.
Opening or closing the sliding cover on the burner can adjust the flame.
Avoid drafts for long burning time.
Always maintain a safe distance of at least 1 meter (40 inches) from the fireplace
when the flame is lit.

Extinguishing
CAUTION: Never extinguish the flame with water!
1. Let the fuel burn out completely if possible. This prevents alcohol left in the burn-
er and deflagration when reigniting.
2. If you wish to extinguish the fire before the fuel has completely burned out.
Please use the control tool to fully close the sliding cover of the burner in a fast
motion, completely extinguish the flame.
3. In case the flame is not extinguished immediately. Repeat the above instructions
until the flame is fully extinguished.
4. Do not touch the fireplace while burning. Please allow at least 15 minutes to cool
down before touching the fireplace after flame is extinguished.
5. It is urgently recommended that you keep a Class B fire extinguisher at hand close
to the device in case of fire.
Refilling
Allow the burner to cool down for at least
15 minutes before refilling.
Warning: Never refill the burner when
the fireplace is operating or still hot.
Never pour fuel into the burning flame.
Cleaning
1. The burner surfaces must be cleaned regularly. Use warm water and soap.
2. Check the sliding cover of burner for warp or damage before using.
3. Marks can be best removed with a soft cloth and a mixture of lukewarm water
and a small amount of cleaning liquid (ph-neutral). We recommend cleaning the
stainless steel items regularly to prevent contamination.
CAUTION: Never use chemical, steel-wool or scrubbing sponges to clean the fireplace.
These can scratch the surface.
The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for any damages resulting out of false
