• Avoid creating a low pressure condition in the
room where the stove is operating. Be aware
that operation of an exhaust fan or clothes dryer
can create a low pressure area and consequently
promote ow reversal through the stove and
chimney system. e chimney and building,
however, always work together as a system -
provision of outside air, directly or indirectly
to an atmospherically vented appliance will not
guarantee proper chimney performance. Consult
your local Norsk Kleber authorized dealer
regarding specic installation or performance
issues.
• Never re while the stove door is open.
• In case of soot re: close the stove’s dra

WITH OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS IN THIS
MANUAL.
• Check building codes.
When installing, operating and maintaining your
Kube model, follow the guidelines presented in
these instructions, and make them available to
anyone using or servicing the stove. In the U.S.,
guidelines established by UL 1777, the National
