1. General information
For use of the EcoFire, please take note and respect all of the information below.
Setting safety in advance
As with any product which is used for burning, a Metaloterm®EcoFire produces heat. Therefore, it should be located in a
suitable place in a distance of min. 40 cm from inflammable materials. It should be situated at least 40 cm away from any
furniture. Children and pets should stay a safe distance away from fire. Always install the EcoFire with appropriate bolts/
screws to the solid world (wall and floor). The type of fixation is depending on the wall and floor types and may only be
determined and executed by a responsible installer.
Starting and operating the fire safely
Metaloterm®EcoFire is only suitable to burn bioethanol (alternatively candles, garden candles, small torch, fire bowls can
be used).
Using other materials or substances may lead to the damage, fire, severe injury or health damage.
Burner should be filled maximum up to three quarters of height. Take the burner out of Metaloterm®EcoFire before
refilling. In this situation you will be perfectly sure the burner is cold, and at the same time you will have a full control of
the fuel level in the burner. Never leave the burner open when possibly containing fuel. The fuel (any volume) evaporates
which causes explosion risks.
The fire should only be started by a competent adult, respecting all safety regulations.
Ignition may only be done when the front is closed and locked , by using a long lighter through the small hole in the side
of the EcoFire.
The EcoFire must be ignited directly after (re-)filling and burned till empty.
If you stop the fire before the burner ran empty, use only the little cover plate to stop the fire and keep the burner covered
by that plate. Only restart after complete cool down and do not remove the cover plate until you restart.
You must avoid filling and lighting the fire appliance while it is hot (for example, immediately after the termination of the
fire or after the fire has gone out). Fuel poured into a hot burner evaporates very quickly creating strong vapours, these
may ignite and flash causing an explosion and burning.

Flame appearance
First 2-3 minutes after ignition the flame looks very small. After that time the whole unit is getting hotter, and evaporation
of bioethanol reach the optimal level to create the right flame appearance.
To adjust the flame, please use the draft shutter, located at the backside of an elbow. By moving the shutter, You adjust the
draft, and at the same time the appearance of the flame.
Extinguishing the fire
To extinguish the fire/biofuel, cut off the air supply by the little cover plate that is supplied to the EcoFire. The container
with the burning biofuel is hot, so for closing the burner always use that included cover plate only. The EcoFire and the
immediate surroundings will stay hot for some time after use. Keep the cover plate in place until there is a complete cool
down and when you will restart a fire. Do not remove the cover plate before.
