Our contribution towards climate protectionOur contribution towards climate protection
1. Important standards / guidelines1. Important standards / guidelines
During combustion, wood only emits the same amount of CO2 that it previously
held as a tree. It makes no dierence whether the wood burns or rots in the
forest.
Thus heating with wood corresponds to the natural biological cycle.
When installing and starting-up the appliance, observe the local re prevention re-
gulations and building regulations as well as the following standards /regulations:

Page 4
CAUTION! CHILDREN PLAYING!
The appliance becomes very hot when it is in operation. Make sure that child-
ren are never in the immediate vicinity of the appliance when it is in use.
CORRECT INSTALLATION AND START-UP
The safety of the appliance can only be assured if it has been installed by a trai-
ned technician, in compliance with the standards and regulations applicable at
the place of installation. Make sure that the requirements of the applicable laws
and standards as well as the local re protection laws and building regulations
are adhered to. Please consult the local qualied chimney sweep regarding the
assessment of building and technical conditions.
When operating the stove, make sure that there is an adequate supply of fresh
air in the room where the appliance is located. An air exchange of at least 0.8
times per hour by means of a permanent and secure ventilation of the room
must be ensured. If the windows and doors are tightly sealed or if other ap-
pliances such as extractor hoods, tumble driers, ventilators etc. draw air from
the room where the appliance is located, it may be necessary to provide fresh
combustion air from outside. The inlet apertures for combustion air must not
be closed.
For the rst 2 to 3 days run the stove with a low output. This allows the stove
lining to dry out slowly and as a result it extends the service life signicantly.
During the rst few days of operation, expansion cracks may form in the re-
clay-cladding. However, this does not impair the functioning of the appliance.
CORRECT OPERATION
Correct operation, in compliance with the installation instructions and with the
operating manual as well as with the instructions regarding safety and envi-
ronmental protection.
Bear in mind that the appliance is not childproof (doors, etc.) and therefore it
must not be operated by children or other people who are not authorised or
trained.
If the appliance is not installed properly and if the instructions (as stated in
the technical documentation and operating manual) regarding the start-up and
operation of the appliance are not followed, all warranty claims will become
null and void.
Open the start-up ap only when heating up the stove, keep the combustion
chamber door and ash door closed at all times. Avoid overheating the stove
(e.g. red-hot steel hotplate). The warranty does not cover any resulting dama-
ge.
Only use suitable fuels by choosing environmentally sustainable, high-quality
and dry fuels (see fuels on page 17).
Only operate our central heating stoves using a return ow temperature boost
(thermal valve, motor-driven mixing valve). Faults caused by failure to follow
this instruction are excluded from the warranty cover.
CHIMNEY REQUIREMENTS FOR HEATING SYSTEMS
Before starting up the appliance for the rst time, the local qualied chimney
sweep must certify the suitability and readiness for operation of new or existing
chimneys by a declaration of conformity.
The owner must ensure that the chimney is free of obstructions (no coverings
or blockages). Please point out existing faults and /or alterations in the chim-
ney and the heating system. Because of low exhaust gas temperatures when
the seasons change the chimney must be leak-free and humidity-resistant.
Make sure that ue and exhaust gas can escape freely to the outside.
REGULAR CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
To ensure the functionality and eciency of the appliance, regular maintenance
and cleaning work must be carried out on every replace and all the connected
system components (e.g. chimney, connecting ducts, etc.). Please observe the
instructions regarding maintenance and cleaning in this operating manual.
Your chimney sweep will also be happy to clean the replace. Only clean and
properly adjusted appliances work eciently.

During installation and operation
•When installing the appliance, follow each of the instructions of the opera-
ting manual.
•Pay attention to the safety gaps when installing the appliance.
•Check the ue pipe connection for leakages.
•Check the appliance for damage (e.g. glass items).
•Make sure that you never add more rewood than required for the rated
heating output.
•When adding more rewood, open the door slowly and rst allow the ue
gas to escape up the chimney. By doing this you prevent the ue gas from
entering the room.
•Do not obstruct the appliance during heating as this could lead to an explo-
sion.
Cooking surface
•Very hot fat and oil can ignite spontaneously; prepare food with fat and oil
such as potato chips only under supervision. Never use water on burning
fat and oil. Put the lid on and remove the pot from the hot cooking surface.
•Do not place combustible or ignitable objects on the cooking surface which
could constitute a danger when the appliance is started.
Oven
•There is a risk of burning when working with the hot oven. Use oven cloths,
heatproof gloves or similar.
•Do not store items in the oven that could be hazardous when the appliance
is started.
•Take care when opening the oven door. Do not bend over the opened oven
door immediately. A rush of hot air or steam will escape through the open
door.
•Always fully close the oven door when preparing food inside the oven.
Combustion chamber, rebox
Thanks to the proven JETIFIRE-system and separately controlled primary air
and secondary air, the combustion chamber meets the stringent Austrian regu-
lations established in the “Agreement between Federation and the Provinces
according to Art. 15a B-VG (Federal Constitution Act) concerning the saving of
energy”, the European standard EN 12815, the Austrian standard ÖNORM M
7550, the German industrial standards DIN 18882, DIN Plus, BIMSCH, as well as
the special regulations concerning eciency and pollutant emission applicable
in Regensburg and Stuttgart (Germany).
Oven
All ovens are equipped with baking tray and grid, the baking tray support rails
have 4 dierent heights. The oven interior is fully enamelled and therefore easy
to clean (cleaning instructions on pages 19-20). After cleaning the oven, leave
the oven door open for a few minutes to air it.
Preheat the oven for roasting and baking to achieve an even temperature dis-
tribution.
A lively re is necessary to maintain an oven temperature of approximately
250ºC. Dry beech wood is very suitable for this purpose.
Oven thermometer
The thermometer in the viewing glass of the oven door has a display range
of 20 – 400ºC. The temperature markings are reference values for baking and
roasting and may dier slightly from case to case.
CAUTION! CHILDREN PLAYING!
Bear in mind that certain components of the
appliance (handles, lling door, ue pipe,
etc.) become very hot when it is in operation
and therefore represent a burn hazard. Make
sure that children are never in the immediate
vicinity of the appliance when it is in use.

Load-bearing capacity of the oor
Prior to installing the appliance, make sure that the substructure of the oor
is suitable for the weight of the appliance. Ensure a level and vibration-free
positioning of the appliance.
Floor pad as a protection against ying sparks
With combustible oors (timber ooring, synthetic materials, tted carpet, etc.),
the use of a oor pad made of steel, safety glass, tiles or similar non-combus-
tible materials is strongly recommended
According to re protection laws, the following minimum clearances from the
combustion chamber opening must be maintained: 50 cm to the front, and 30
cm each to the left and to the right.
Safety clearances
Maintain sucient safety clearance to combustible items (wooden panelling,
furniture, curtains, etc.) around the stove. The walls in the immediate vicinity of
the stove must be reproof over the full height of the walls and over a width of
at least 50 cm to either side and to the front beyond the replace (Figure 10).
The safety clearance from items to be protected (e.g. combustible walls, walls
with combustible components, tall kitchen cupboards and load-bearing walls
made of reinforced concrete) is at least 20 cm (Figure 11).
When installed next to combustible materials or in a tted kitchen or next to an
electric cooker or any other appliance, a re protection unit (tted as standard
or as an addition) must be provided (Figure 12).
In this case the maximum height of the adjacent xtures is the stove height. Fix-
tures exceeding the height of the stove must be at a distance of at least 20 cm.
Overhead kitchen cabinets
For stoves with a steel cooking plate it is not permissible to install overhead cabinets
above the stove because the hotplate can be opened (cooking opening cover).
For stoves with a glass ceramic cooking surface, the distance must be at least 75
cm and there must be adequate rear ventilation of the overhead cabinets to avoid
heat being trapped.
Safety clearances ue gas pipe
When installing the ue gas pipe, adhere to the following minimum distances from
combustible building materials:
•clearance to wall 20 cm
•clearance to ceiling 40 cm.

Schematic diagram ue gas connection (Figure 13)
Trouble-free and ecient operation is assured if the following conditions for an
optimum combustion are fullled:
Adequate condition of the chimney: good thermal insulation, smooth inner
surface, no leakages
Correct dimensioning of the chimney: cross section and eective height
must be calculated for the intended fuels and loads.
Correct ue gas pipe connection: tight, no cross sectional constriction,
slightly rising towards the chimney, not projecting into the chimney.
For shared-ue systems: maintain a minimum distance of 60 cm.
Seal unused connection openings with cover lids.
Keep sweeping and cleaning openings, usually located in the basement or
attic storeys, closed at all times. Check seals from time to time and renew if
necessary.
The chimney
•When installing the ue gas pipe adhere to the following minimum clearan-
ces from combustible building materials: clearance from wall 20 cm, clea-
rance from ceiling 40 cm.
•Design and condition to suit the regulations applicable at the place of ins-
tallation.
•Prior to connection, inspect for possible faults and defects.
•Eective chimney height of 5 m (from cooking plate to the chimney outlet).
If the height is less, the stove must be connected with a vertical ue gas
pipe of at least 1 m length. An eective chimney height of less than 4 m is
not advisable.
•Uniform, square or round internal cross section, insulated to prevent cooling.
•Chimneys made of pre-fabricated components are preferable.
•Assessment of the entire ue gas system according to DIN 4705 Parts 1 and
2, with shared-ue systems according to Part 3.
Connection stove - chimney
The ue pipe is the connection between the stove and the chimney. When ins-
talling the ue, please note the following instructions:
•Make sure that the connecting piece can be cleaned (cleaning opening, from
the stove-side, etc.).
•The diameter of the ue pipe must not decrease towards the chimney.
•The ue pipe must not project into the chimney.
•Vertically positioned ue pipes must not exceed a length of 125 cm if they
are not insulated.
•Horizontal pipe sections must not exceed a length of 100 cm.
•The ue pipe must not descend towards the chimney, but must incline slight-
ly upward.
•The connection between the stove and the chimney must be strong and leak-
proof. In particular the connection to the masonry of the chimney must be
durable and tight.
The necessary discharge pressure (“Chimney draught”)
The negative pressure prevailing in your chimney, measured in Pascal (“Pa”) is
a measure of the eciency of your chimney. The discharge pressure required
for your stove is shown in the table “Technical data” on page 26 and on the
nameplate of the stove.
With new chimneys you can trust the details (calculations) of the manufacturer;
with older chimneys seek the advice of your chimney sweep.
•Insucient discharge pressure would result in incomplete combustion and
consequently in increased formation of soot and tar in the stove and in the
chimney.
•Excessive discharge pressure on the other hand would accelerate combus-
tion, lead to high ue gas temperatures (causing damage to the appliance)
and greatly increase fuel consumption.

Examples of possible connections
The appliance is dependent on indoor air (open-ued appliance); that means
the air required for combustion is drawn from the room where the appliance is
located. Therefore the room must be supplied with fresh air from the outside
through an air inlet. Provide an opening that is 10-15 cm in diameter in an exte-
rior wall in the room where the appliance is located. Install a protective grating
on the outside of the air inlet. In particularly exposed locations it is advisable
to provide protection against wind and rain.
If it is not possible to provide an air inlet to the outside from the room where the
appliance is located, the opening can be in an adjoining room. In this case the
adjoining room must have a permanent connection to the room where the appli-
ance is installed via a ventilation grid. If there are additional heating appliances in
the same room, make sure that the air inlets can supply sucient air for combusti-
on for the operation of all appliances.

Installation to be provided by the customer
The boiler is suitable and permissible as a heat generating device for hot-water
heating systems with a ow temperature of up to 95° C and a maximum allo-
wable working pressure of 3 bar.
The appliance must be installed following the instructions of this operating ma-
nual and in conformance with the applicable national and European standards
as well as the regional regulations.
Further points to be observed:
•Heating room guidelines
•State building regulations
•Local building regulations
•Industrial regulations and local re protection laws
•Environmental laws
•Regulations of the local power supply company.
Upon completion of the connection work a test run must be carried out du-
ring which all control and safety devices are adjusted and checked for correct
functioning.
Heat output to water
The heat requirement during operation must exceed 1.6 kW. If the demand or
heat supplied is lower, the built-in safety devices would be activated and/or the
appliance would be shut down.
Return ow temperature boost
Operating temperatures that are too low (ow and return ow temperatures
that are too low) will reduce the service life of the boiler signicantly.
When the temperature is below the water dew point, water containing chemical
substances with various types of activity condenses on the boiler surface and
can accelerate corrosion. Temperatures below the dew point primarily occur
in low-temperature heating installations (return temperatures down to below
25°C), in installations without a mixer, in the case of extreme light-load opera-
tion during changes in season and in constant light-load operation caused by
a boiler that is dimensioned too large.
Therefore the return ow temperature must be at least 55°C at the return ow
connecting piece of the appliance. The ideal return ow temperature at the
boiler inlet is around 60°C. The return ow temperature boost (the pump for
the return ow temperature boost must be installed in the return ow) should
be mounted as near as possible to the boiler so that the mixing temperature
at the mixing valve corresponds to the return ow temperature at the boiler.
Temperature safety relief valve
The heat exchanger serves to protect the boiler from overheating when the
pump is stationary and must not be used to provide domestic hot water. The
safety mechanisms must still be accessible after the installation. The drain must
be visible for checking the temperature safety relief valve for proper functio-
ning, therefore use the drain funnel (Figure 19).
At least once a year the temperature safety relief valve must be checked for
correct operation. To do this, press the red cap against the valve and water
must ow into the drain funnel. Should the safety valve drip, the seal and valve
seat must be cleaned. The calcication state of the safety devices must also be
checked at least once a year.
Expansion tank
If the boiler hot-water circuit is not directly connected to a heating circuit with
integrated expansion tank, or if it can be disconnected from this circuit, a
separate expansion tank (type-approved) is required. The installation and the
calculation of the dimensions of the expansion tank must comply with DIN
EN12828 and DIN EN13831. The expansion tank must be installed in rooms that
are protected from frost. For further details (e.g. maximum operating tempera-
ture, etc.) refer to the information given by the manufacturer.

10. Operating the stove10. Operating the stove
Start-up ap
To facilitate initial heating, all LOHBERGER stoves are equipped with a start-up
ap. Opening the start-up ap provides a direct route from the rebox chamber
to the ue pipe. The ue gases then need not take the “long” route through
the oven, but enter the ue pipe while still hot, rapidly establishing a ue drau-
ght. Once there is sucient draught in the ue and the initial heating phase is
completed, close the start-up ap again.
It is incorporated in the hand rail on the side opposite to the combustion cham-
ber. Pulled out is open; pushed in is closed (Figure 20).
Caution: The start-up ap must only remain open during the initial heating
phase. If the start-up-ap remains open when heating, this will cause the stove
to overheat and damage stove components. An open start-up ap will also
result in increased fuel consumption.
Air control
The AquaTherm appliance is tted with an automatic output controller. This
device serves to “restrict” the supply of combustion air; but this has only a
limited eect on the output. It is denitely not suitable for compensating an
excess of fuel. A certain amount of fuel requires a certain amount of oxygen for
optimum combustion. If the wood is supplied with less air than is required for
clean and ecient combustion, less energy is generated in the appliance (pro-
tecting the appliance to a great extent from overheating) – the unused “wood
gas”, however, escapes through the ue.
The result: low eciency and high environmental load.
Remedy: load the stove only up to the recommended fuel level.
Primary air control
The supply of the primary air required for combustion is controlled with the
rotary knob below the rebox door (Figure 21). This determines the rate of
burning and therefore the heat output of the stove.
In position “0” the controller is closed, no combustion air is supplied. In posi-
tion “1” minimum air supply is provided; select this position for slow-burning
operation. Turning the rotary knob to position “6” means maximum air supply,
necessary especially during the heating-up phase.
ÖAir settings see Table on page 18
Secondary air control
The supply of secondary air (combustion air owing over the fuel from the top)
produces combustion that matches the fuel being used and keeps down the
pollutant emissions. The secondary air ows through openings in the rear wall
of the combustion chamber as well as from below and at the top along the
combustion chamber door (along the viewing window, if present) over the fuel
into the combustion chamber.
The secondary air is controlled with the secondary air slider which is visible
in the lower area after opening the rebox door (Figure 22). Moving the slider
towards the outer wall of the appliance reduces the incoming secondary air
ow; moving towards the oven increases it.

Grate riddling
To remove ash from the grate use the grate crank handle from the ash drawer
(Figure 23). To do this, push the grate crank handle onto the upper square spi-
got and turn as required. However, if the air slits of the grate are very clogged
by slag, crusts or other combustion residues, completely remove the grate and
clean it.
Adjustment of the grate
Thanks to the lifting grate the lling height can be adjusted as desired. The
lifting grate is adjusted by means of the grate crank handle (Figure 24). The
crank is pushed onto the upper square spigot above the ash drawer. Turning it
clockwise moves the grate upwards. Turning it anti-clockwise moves the grate
downwards.
Winter mode / Summer mode
WINTER MODE (Figure 24)
With the grate at the lowest position (full ring) maximum heat is supplied to
the heating system, the output is sucient for cooking, the output for baking
is lower.
SUMMER MODE (Figure 25)
The top position of the grate (shallow ring) is especially suitable for cooking and
baking with a reduced supply of heat to the heating system.
Changing between boiler and cooking operation
The control knob above the boiler thermometer is used to select boiler operation
or cooking operation. To do this, turn the knob to the symbol for the desired ope-
ration (Figure 26).
BOILER OPERATION (Figure 27):
With this operating mode maximum heat is supplied to the heating system. The
heating gases are taken through a tube heat exchanger, and the radiated losses
to the room where the stove is installed (via the cooking surface or the oven)
and consequently the heat output to the room are reduced.
COOKING OPERATION (Figure 28):
For cooking and baking the heating gases are led to the cooking surface and
around the oven. The increased radiating surface area increases the heat output
to the room where the appliance is located. The boiler output is reduced through
exclusion of the tube heat exchanger, but not entirely stopped.

Prerequisites for ecient combustion:
•sucient amount of combustible material
•oxidising agent, mostly oxygen
•enough heat to reach the ignition temperature or to maintain the minimum
temperature required for combustion
•the correct proportion of the combustible material to ambient air or to the
reactive gas
The combustion process
The combustion process takes place in three stages:
1. Drying stage
In this stage all the moisture still in the wood is evaporated. This occurs at
temperatures of approx. 100°C. During pre-ignition, the wood must be supplied
with heat (using small pieces of rewood). When it dries, the rewood shrinks
until cracks are formed which accelerate the drying process.
2. Degasication stage
After the drying process, with temperatures rising from 100° to approx. 300°C,
the degasication of the wood starts. High-energy, combustible gases, consis-
ting of various chemical components, are released (hydrocarbons). The burn-o
of these volatile components, which account for about 80 % of the wood, is
recognisable from the long yellow ames that shoot up from the wood. The real
combustion process begins with the ignition of the gases that are produced
at about 225°C (ignition temperature) and with the release of heat. For this to
happen, enough oxygen must also be supplied. The nal stage of the combus-
tion is reached at about 300°C. Now the greatest amount of heat is released,
with ame temperatures of up to 1100°C.
3. Burn-out stage
After the volatile components have been burnt-o, the charcoal begins to burn
and is degasied at temperatures of about 500 to 800°C without forming soot.
This process can be recognised by the short, translucent small ames. All three
stages can occur at the same time from the inside to the outside of a piece of
wood.
Clean combustion
The rst prerequisite for keeping pollutant emissions as low as possible is that only
dry wood is used.
The heating-up phase, which produces signicant quantities of decomposition pro-
ducts, must be completed as fast as possible by using small pieces of kindling wood
in order to reach the high temperatures quickly.
Reducing the air supply during the degasication stage has a detrimental eect as
the wood degasication continues even without further supply of air and without
ames (smouldering). As a result large amounts of the substance of the wood can
be expelled without generating heat and are released into the environment without
having been being burnt-o or deposits such as tar and soot are formed on the walls
of the combustion chamber and in the ue gas pipes.
Even during the burn-o phase the air supply must not be restricted completely as
this would create the hazard of carbon monoxide fumes.
When continuing the heating process, make sure that not too much wood is added.
The amount of wood should always match the heat requirements.
JETIFIRE  FLAME CONVERGENCE PLATE
The JETIFIRE Flame convergence plate, which serves as a cover for the com-
bustion chamber (Figure 30), in conjunction with the pre-heated secondary air
supply through the rebox door, results in a higher combustion temperature
and thus in a less polluting and more eective combustion.
The ame convergence plate, like the stove itself, should be cleaned of com-
bustion residues from time to time. Make sure that the ame convergence plate
is replaced in the correct position.

Suitable fuels
FIREWOOD LOGS
Firewood (Figure 31) should have a moisture content of approx. 20 % of the
dry weight, a length of 1/3 m and should be split into small pieces. This way,
the rewood quickly catches re and produces a higher heat output than the
same volume of large logs. Spruce wood, r wood or alder wood should be
allowed to dry out for at least 2 years, hardwood as long as 3 years (under a
roofed shelter).
The eect of the water content in wood on the caloric value is shown in Table
1:
LIGNITE BRIQUETTES
In addition to wood, lignite briquettes (Figure 32) can also be burned. Ligni-
te briquettes have the following advantages: high caloric value, long-lasting
heat, a consistent quality, readily available at DIY-stores, fuel dealers etc. and
the 10-25 kg bundles are easy to transport and store.
Caloric value of lignite briquettes: 5,83 kWh/ kg
Unsuitable fuels
Moist wood, bark waste, sawdust, ne wood chips, brushwood, wood-wool,
wood shavings. Use paper only in small amounts to kindle a re. The burning
of such fuels results in signicant pollutant emissions, large amounts of ash,
and the heat output is comparatively low.
Prohibited fuels
Surface-treated wood (veneered, painted, impregnated, etc.), particle board,
all types of household waste (packaging waste), plastic materials, newspapers,
rubber, leather, textiles, etc.
Burning these materials is harmful to the environment and is therefore prohibi-
ted by law. Furthermore, damage to the appliance and the chimney can occur.
Burning coal products other than lignite (brown coal) is also forbidden. The appli-
ance has not been tested for use with these fuels; therefore damage to the appli-
ance cannot be ruled out and is not covered by warranty.

After completion of the assembly and connecting work and prior to the rst
start-up, a few actions are still required:
•Steel cooking plate: ensure a 2 mm gap all round between the plate and
the stove frame to prevent discoloration of the stainless stove frame when
heating.
•Open the rebox door and the ash door, pull out the ash drawer and take
out the multi-purpose wrench.
•Wipe o the corrosion protection applied to the steel cooking plate (see
page 21)
•Before each start-up, make sure that the appliance is ready for use (water
level, water pressure, temperature, controls, safety devices etc.)
After you have familiarised yourself with the operating procedures for the stove,
the rst start-up can begin.
Heating up
•Open the start-up ap, turn the knob for the primary air to position 6 and
fully open the slider for the secondary air.
•Open the rebox door
•Turn the operation mode control to Cooking operation
•Put 2 small pieces of rewood onto the grate
•Place a piece of starter between the pieces of rewood and add more
rewood on top
•Close the rebox door.
How to heat with brown coal (lignite) briquettes:
The fuel is best ignited with a high combustion
temperature. To facilitate this, place a suitable
number of re starter cubes, or paper or kindling
wood onto the grate in the rebox. Add two to
three small pieces of rewood or two to three
briquettes and light the re. Close the rebox
door; turn the air regulator to “maximum” positi-
on. As soon as the wood and the briquettes are
burning, adjust the air supply to suit your hea-
ting requirements. More lignite briquettes can
be placed onto the glowing embers as required
once the ames have died down.

tes /full ring approx. 5,6 kg approx. 120 min.
Adding Fuel
•Add more fuel according to the table (see air supply settings).
•Turn primary air supply to position 1.
•Adjust secondary air supply for the required heat output.
When adding fuel we recommend:
1. short intervals (every 30-50 minutes)
2. 2-3 small pieces of rewood (approx. 1-2 kg)
Air supply settings
Table 2 shows the recommended settings for the air supply (after the opera-
ting temperature has been reached). The indicated values for the settings are
approximate values. The setting of the air slider that suits the heating require-
ments of the room is established by experimenting. See Table 3 to learn more
about the recommended amount of rewood to be added and burning times.
Heating
When only embers are left on the grate, new fuel should be added evenly over
the whole grate. To do so, spread the embers evenly over the grate and then
more fuel can be placed on top.
Fuel lling level
Please note that your stove should only be lled up to the secondary air vents
at the side walls and the rear wall of the combustion chamber and not above
the air vents of the upright grate behind the combustion chamber door, as this
would obstruct the air ow in the combustion chamber. On stoves with viewing
windows this will result in soot deposits and darkening of the glass (cerami-
cation, not covered by warranty). In any case, this will lead to incomplete and
inecient combustion and subsequently to low eciency with all appliances.
Cooking
For cooking change the operating mode to cooking . Cooking is best done
on a hot but not red-hot stove plate. Overheating is synonymous with wasting
of fuel. The highest stove plate temperature is in the immediate vicinity of the
heat exchanger (above the boiler thermometer). This area is therefore ideally
suited for rapid initial cooking. The edge zones with lower temperatures can be
used for slow cooking or keeping warm. You are best advised to use pots with
a thick, at base and a tting lid.
Baking and Roasting
Set the operating mode button to . For baking and roasting, evenly distri-
buted heat is needed. To achieve this evenness and a high enough tempera-
ture, the oven must be preheated to the temperature that suits the food to be
baked, with the start-up ap closed. When the oven has reached the required
temperature put the items to be baked inside. However, do not let the re burn
too ercely; only add fuel in small quantities. The desired temperature in the
oven can be achieved by adjusting the supply of the combustion air (secon-
dary and primary air regulator). Place high cake tins on the rack in the bottom
groove. Cakes in tins can be baked at a moderate heat (180 – 200º). A baking
tray with at cakes or biscuits can be put in using either of the grooves. In
this case increasing the heat to 200 - 220º is recommended. For roasting much
higher temperatures are needed, preheating is essential.
Heating in between seasons
When outdoor temperatures are above 15°C, it may occur that due to low chim-
ney draught the re does not burn very well. This will result in an increased
build-up of soot in the ue passages of the appliance and in the chimney.
To reduce the build-up of soot when heating in between seasons, increase
the primary air supply, poke the re more often and add fuel more frequently
(smaller pieces of wood).

14. Maintenance and Cleaning14. Maintenance and Cleaning
Regular maintenance and care or cleaning of the appliance, the ue gas ducts,
the connecting piece and the chimney are particularly important for the opera-
tional safety, eciency and maintaining the value of the appliance.
A thorough cleaning should be performed after each heating period and after
a long period of non-use (see Important instructions, page 4). When used fre-
quently or when using poor-quality fuels, correspondingly more often.
•Remove cooking plate and clean it, in particular the underside. With glass
ceramic hobs, clean the bottom with a hand brush, and for steel cooking
plates use a wire brush.
•Remove the grate and brush it. Clear out clogged grate slits.
•Remove and sweep ue gas pipe(s).
•Clean combustion chamber walls and ue gas ducts with the ash shovel.
•Brush start-up ap and xture and check that it operates correctly.
•Remove ash pan and empty it. Sweep the ash pan enclosure.
•Use the ash shovel to clean the ue gas ducts accessible after removing the
cleaning cover.
•Check the sealing cords of the cooking plate and of the cleaning cover; re-
place them if required.
•Clear the secondary air vents of the protective plate of the rebox door using
a wire brush.
•When cleaning chrome, anodised or enamel surfaces, use only gentle (non-
alkaline) cleaning agents and no abrasive cleaning tools. The same applies
to cleaning the oven.
•When reinstalling the various appliance components (ue gas pipe, cooking
plate, grate, cleaning cover, ash pan) ensure they are correctly positioned and
function as required and / or that there are no leaks.
•When positioning the cooking plate, make sure there is a 2 mm wide gap to
the stove frame all round.
Cleaning opening
The cleaning door panel is secured by a ball catch and swivels open (Figure
33). The cleaning cover behind it is attached to the stove front with 2 wing
nuts and should be removed to clean the ue gas ducts. Before replacing the
cover, check the rope seal of the cleaning cover for tightness and replace it if
necessary.
Removing cooking plate
To remove the cooking plate rst open the oven door (Figure 34). Insert the
supplied multi-purpose wrench into the opening below the stove frame, push
the cooking plate upwards and take it out.
Using a vacuum cleaner
Allow the appliance to cool down completely and only use a vacuum cleaner
with an“Ash Box” accessory – FIRE HAZARD.
Cleaning the heat exchanger
To clean the tube heat exchanger, take out the cooking plate. Remove the
change-over damper stop on the rear wall of the heat exchanger (Figure 35).
Swing open the change-over damper by means of the operating mode control.
Remove deposits from the heat exchanger pipes using the supplied cleaning
brush.
Cleaning the connecting piece
Take out the cooking plate and clean the exhaust gas pipe connection and the
connecting piece with a suitable brush or use the vacuum cleaner (only with an
“Ash Box” accessory – re hazard). Provide cleaning openings for long connec-
ting pieces and angled pieces.

Grate
The ash can be removed from the grate quite easily by riddling the grate. Howe-
ver, if the air slits are very clogged by slag, crusts or other combustion residue,
completely remove the grate and clean it. To do this, open the combustion
chamber door and the ash door, pull out the ash drawer, lift the grate from
below and pull it out through the combustion chamber door.
After the cleaning, push the grate through the combustion chamber door as far
as the rear reclay, lower it at the back and once more push it back as far as it
goes. Then do the grate riddling.
Ash pan
Empty the ash pan at regular intervals and early enough. The pile of ash must
not obstruct the primary air vents in the ash pan.
Oven door
To allow the oven to cool down, the oven door can be xed at an angle of appro-
ximately 70°. The oven door can be completely removed. This is a real advantage
when the oven is to be thoroughly cleaned.
Removing the oven door
•Fully open the oven door. Fold the clips in the door hinges forward (Figure
36).
•Hold the oven door at the sides using both hands. Lift the door slightly and
pull the hinges forwards from the door openings (Figures 37+38).
Reinstalling the oven door
•Hold the oven door with both hands at the sides and insert the hinges into
the corresponding openings in the oven. The hinge will engage (Figure 39).
•Fully open the oven door slowly. Again fold back the clips on the door hinges.
Close the oven door (Figure 40).
Cleaning the glass viewing window of the oven
If the appliance is overheated or if a gasket is damaged, the inside of the glass
viewing window of the oven may become fogged. To clean it, please proceed
as follows:
•Remove oven door as described and place it on a clean surface, undo the
handle screws (2x) and remove the oven door handle (Figure 41).
•Swivel open the oven door panel on the handle side and move it forwards
to remove it (Figure 42).
•Remove the viewing window glazing unit and the silicone gasket (Figure 43).
CAUTION: Remember the correct position of the silicone gasket
•Carefully clean the glass. To do so, use gentle cleaning agents (e.g. soapy
water) and a soft cloth.
•Reassemble the parts in reverse order.
Side rails of the oven
The side rail assemblies of the oven can also be removed for ease of cleaning.
Removal:
Lift the side rail assembly at the front and take it out of the oven (Figure 44).
Reinstallation:
Engage the side rail assembly at the rear, then push downwards at the front (Figure
45).
