Of course, our fireplace inserts are subject to the company‘s own quality
criteria of the incoming goods inspection up to final acceptance prior to
shipment.
2. RATING PLATE
For the Magic fireplace insert, the rating plate is located in the internal
recessed inspection door below the firebox door. To reach the inspection
door, the firebox first has to be rotated (see „4.2.1 Starting a fire for begin-
ners“). To open the inspection door, unscrew the recessed Allen screws. The
rating plate is attached to the underside of the inspection door.
To open the inspection door, unscrew the recessed Allen screws. (Fig. 1).
Turn the disengaged inspection door around (Fig. 2) .The rating plate is
located on the bottom (Fig. 3).

OUR FIREPLACE INSERTS HAVE BEEN TESTED WITH CE APPROVAL
PURSUANT TO EN 13229. THE DECLARATION OF PERFORMANCE IS
AVAILABLE AT WWW.SPARTHERM.COM
A = not a self-closing door
• open operation possible under certain conditions
• does not allow multiple connection of the flue
We recommend operating Type A units with a closed firebox door, as well. As
a result, the use of wood energy will improve and the operational reliability
will increase. In particular, soot or odours can easily enter the room through
an open firebox door, due either to air movements or to weak or uneven
chimney draughts.
A1 = Self-closing door
• Closed operating mode
• Multiple connection of the flue possible
Except when feeding, the firebox on Model A1 should always be kept locked
to prevent the escape of hot gases. The locking mechanism on Model A1
must not be tampered with. Interference with the mechanism renders both
the warranty and operating licence invalid. The guarantee and operating
licence are also rendered invalid if the customer has modified the technol-
ogy of any other area of the fireplace insert. The desired design should have
been clarified with you by your retailer before ordering.
These operating instructions comply with the provisions outlined in DIN EN
18896 „Solid-fuel fireplaces“.
National and regional regulations, construction methods or materials may vary
from this exemplary version, but are to be observed. Our fireplace inserts are
designed for short term burning and are not intended for use under continuous
combustion conditions.

3. FUEL
3.1 WOOD
3.1.1 CO2NEUTRALITY
The „Wald in Not“ (Forest in Peril) Foundation formulates this aptly in an
informative brochure as follows:
„Wood has no debts to nature. Wood is stored solar energy. Sunlight, water
and carbon dioxide are the building blocks that make wood. During the
lifetime of the tree, sunlight is chemically captured. Sun is turned into lignin
and cellulose. When the wood is burned, that energy is released again.
Wood only emits as much carbon dioxide as it had previously gained from
the air and incorporated when it was a living tree. It is immaterial whether
the wood burns or rots in the forest – the carbon dioxide output always
remains constant.
New trees absorb the carbon dioxide that the wood emits when burned, and
a closed natural carbon cycle is the result.
Conclusion: With wood burning, nature remains in balance.
German law regulates the sustainable management of forests. This obli-
gation leads to an increase in timber volumes, since the average increase
in timber is 40% greater than the amount of firewood and timber that is
consumed. Therefore, it is economically and environmentally sensible to
burn wood in this form.
3.1.2 BASIC REQUIREMENTS FOR INSTALLING AN
OPEN FIREPLACE
All types of wood contain about the same amount of thermal energy per kg
of net wood mass. Each type of wood has a different volume at the same
weight, though, because the cells from which the timber is constructed have
different sizes and densities. In technical values, this fact is displayed in the
form of gross density. As such, the wood does not contain any water and is
weighed per 1 m3of wood.
For starting a fire, woods with a low density are more suitable, since they
can burn easily, while high-density wood is better for periodic burning.
Hardness of wood Type of wood* Gross density in kg/m³
Soft wood
Poplar 370
Spruce 380
Fir 380
Pine 430
Hardwood
Beech 580
Ash 580
Oak 630
* All other native woods can also be used, but they are not yet available
commercially or in large quantities.
Since fireplace inserts have different requirements for operation (the feed
rate, the task interval, etc.) depending upon the design of the fireplace/plas-
tered stove (e.g. as a fireplace, standard furnace, hot air oven, hypocaust,
etc.), ask the installer for advice, prior to commissioning, regarding the
proper operation of the fireplace insert.

GB 6
Here are some helpful tips and information:
• The best fuel is air-dried, untreated firewood with a residual moisture
content of ≤18%.
• The wood should be stored in a protected, dry, well-ventilated area
outdoors.
• Wood which is too damp leads to lower heating values, faster soot
build-up in the chimney and faster pollution of the glass panes.
• Do not perform open operation with resinous softwoods. These woods
are prone to flying sparks.
• For open operation, use hardwood from deciduous wood.
Our fireplace inserts are designed to operate with logs and wood briquettes.
The use of other fuels is not permitted.
Never burn the following:
• wet wood, bark waste or nutshells
• chipboard or pane materials (coated
• or uncoated)
• paper, cardboard and old clothes
• plastics and foams
• wood treated with wood preservatives
• any solid or liquid materials which are foreign to wood
• flammable liquids
3.1.3 AMOUNT OF WOOD
Nominal heat output kW Feed quantity* kg/h feed quantity upon use of wood
briquettes kg/m³
12 3,5 - 4,5 3,0 - 4,0
* Effective as of the first refueling. When starting a fire, this can be
increased by 30%.
Wood briquettes pursuant to Segment 3 of the BImSchV [German Fed-
eral Immission Protection Ordinance] may also be used. These include
compact briquettes made from natural wood in the form of wood briquettes
pursuant to DIN 51731 (October 1996).
1 kg Beech = ca. 1 piece of wood with L = 0.33 m; ~ Ø 0.10 m.
The individual wood logs should be no more than 30 cm in circumference!
Permanently exceeding the feeding rate by more than 30% may cause dam-
age to the fireplace insert or the chimney system. Using less than the rec-
ommended amount of wood can lead to poor combustion and soot build-up
on the glass, due to too low a firebox temperature. Please be sure that the
amount of wood does not fall short by more than 30% of the recommended
amount. You can see the figures corresponding to the nominal heat output
of your fireplace insert and of the respective model tested according to EN
from the offer by your local dealer or by contacting us.
4. FIRE
4.1 INITIAL COMMISSIONING
• Make sure that all of the documents and components included with the
fireplace insert have been removed from the firebox.
• The enclosed heat-resistant glove is only intended to provide protection
from the heat when using the operating handle and the control lever. The
glove is not fire-proof.
• Read the operating instructions with regard to fuels and other relevant
issues thoroughly. („3. Fuel“)
• The initial commissioning should occur in consultation with the fireplace
fitter who built the system (or, even better, together with this individual).
All cladding components have to be dry in order to avoid cracks or
damage.

GB
GB 7
• If you do not have an external combustion air supply, you need to ensure
adequate air circulation in the installation area so that a vacuum is not
created in the room and no toxic fumes enter the room. CAUTION! When
monitoring loading and ventilation, WC ventilation and exhaust hoods
without recirculation mode, there is a risk of negative pressure!!!
• Refer to „4.2 Heating up and fuelling“ Heating up and fuelling for the
best start to your fire.
• When starting the first fire after the complete installation of the system,
the temperature should be increased gradually but then burn fully in
order to attain the highest possible temperatures.
• During this first fire, unpleasant odours will be produced. This results
from the burning of the corrosion coating of the fireplace insert in the
steel surface. This is not a health hazard of any kind; it only involves an
unpleasant odour. Therefore, you should ensure adequate ventilation in
the installation area.
• Caution!! During a fire, the surfaces of the panes and cladding are very
hot: there is a risk of burns!
Each optimum combustion needs properly processed fuel, a temperature
corresponding to the burn-off phase and a proper supply of oxygen in order
to function in an environmentally friendly manner and to maximise energy.
4.2 HEATING UP AND FUELLING
Each optimum combustion needs properly processed fuel, a temperature
corresponding to the burn-off phase and a proper supply of oxygen in order
to function in an environmentally friendly manner and to maximise energy.
4.2.1 STARTING A FIRE FOR BEGINNERS
To be able to ignite the Magic fireplace insert, the firebox first has to be
rotated 180°. This can occur either electrically or manually. (For the Magic
with electric rotary actuator, the separate operating instructions for radio
and rotary control apply.)
Grasp the operating handle on the right
side of the Magic and pull the combus-
tion chamber forward in a clockwise
direction.
The rear fire door has to be centred in the chimney unit. Tilt the door handle
upwards and open the door.

GB 8
The firing door can be locked for a short time for cleaning purposes. For this
purpose, push the locking mechanism (which is located on the bottom right
when the firebox door is tilted) towards the bolt and connect it. To close the
door, open this slightly more than the current 90°. The lock is released and
the door can be closed.
• Stack split kindling according to the pyre principle in the middle of the
firebox.
• Do not use alcohol, petrol, oil or other flammable liquids.
Note: If the firebox is rotated to the rear position, the air control closes auto-
matically. The air control lever moves to the „-“ position. The combustion air
is restricted. This is a safety feature to prevent excessive temperatures on
the mounting wall when the unit is in the filling position.
Schematic diagram of the door locking system
Place firelighters or similar, commercially available
starting aids underneath (paper is not recom-
mended because it burns too quickly and causes
ashes). Illustrated here with closed firebox door.
Light the pyre, close the fire door, and turn the
firebox by means of the control handle (using the
heat-resistant glove) counter-clockwise back to the
normal position.
If the furnace is rotated back to its normal position,
the air control lever has to be turned by hand to
the left to the „+“ position in order to allow the
fire to ignite with sufficient combustion air. The
combustion air supply is then completely opened.
When the kindling is burning well, add smaller
hardwood logs or larger softwood logs in the form
of a pyre. Be careful to not completely cover or
smother the embers!
Once the wood has burned and only embers remain
from the initial logs, add more wood as needed.
Hardwood is ideal. During this process, open the
combustion air supply a bit more (in the direction
of „+“).

GB
GB 9
4.3 STARTING A FIRE FOR PROFESSIONALS
Principle: This lighting method is a simple and effective way to reduce
emissions from fireplaces. In this process, the woodpile burns from top to
bottom. Through this combustion method, all the gasses pass through the
hot combustion zone (flame) above the stack, allowing complete combustion
to be achieved. The wood lying below is gradually heated, and the gas flows
out and burns in the hot combustion zone. The result is combustion which is
significantly more uniform and which proceeds from below, as when starting
a fire.
Note: In this process, it is important that too rapid a burnout downwards
is prevented. This requires a certain amount of experience on the part of
the operator regarding the burning of logs in fireplaces, as well as the
correct stacking of the logs and at least an initial observation to adjust the
combustion air.
Procedure:
Open the fire insert completely (see „4.2.1 Starting a fire for beginners“)
4.2.2 BURNING
• Depending on the weather conditions, move the control lever more or less
to the middle position or slightly above it (closing the air supply). This
always depends on experience and the current conditions on site.
• Do not open the door forcefully; otherwise, gases may escape into your
living room through a suddenly produced negative pressure. At first,
open the door slowly and only a crack.
• Putting fresh firewood onto hot embers prevents smoke from being
released when the door is opened.
• Never cover the glowing embers completely.
• After each addition of wood, turn the control lever all the way to the left
for a few minutes until the added wood is inflamed.
• Do not repeatedly put more than the recommended amount of wood
onto the fire.
• The end of the burning process is achieved when the wood has burned
completely, and no smoldering or incomplete combustion can occur. Now
the lever can be closed. (right position)
• This applies even if the system is not in operation.
• Never close the air control lever completely during combustion
(deflagration)!
Begin by stacking the logs crosswise (on the ashes,
if necessary) in the middle of the firebox. Place
the thicker pieces of wood on the bottom and add
increasingly thinner logs on top of them. Note the
amount of added wood according to the operating
instructions for fuel cells.
As a top layer, add enough thin kindling. Softwood
is recommended for this purpose (for example,
fir wood). Two or three firelighters (e.g. wax-im-
pregnated wood shavings) are placed between
the kindling. The amount of kindling should be
selected so that high temperatures are reached
as soon as possible, in order to quickly develop a
draught in the chimney.

GB 10
At this stage, it may be useful to frequently regulate the amount
of air. With a little experience concerning the properties of your
own fireplace insert, you will soon find just the right setting.
Light a match and ignite the two or three
firelighters.
After refuelling, turn the firebox back to the normal
position (see 4.2.1). Push the air control lever by
hand to the left to the „+“ position
The kindling will ignite quickly now and the upper,
thinner logs will begin to burn brightly
When the upper, thinner logs are completely
burned and the fire spreads to the next
layer, the combustion air has to be reduced.
For this purpose, turn the control lever until it is
approximately in the middle position. If the flames
become very weak at this point, turn the lever to
the left (towards „+“) to reopen the air supply.
When the fire has spread to the lowermost layer
of logs, the amount of air can be reduced further.
Now, you can add wood as long as there are suf-
ficient embers. After refuelling, the combustion
air supply has to be fully reopened right away in
order to quickly ignite the added wood.
The fuel will burn down to a heap of embers.

GB
GB 11
This will soon cause a sufficiently high firebox temperature to be reached,
in order to allow full and environmentally-friendly combustion. Depending on
the type of wood, the quantity of wood, the embers and the chimney draught,
this reheating phase takes about 5 minutes until the combustion air can be
restricted (as described in Point 7).
• Once the fire has started, shift the air supply lever as far to the right
(maximum air flow) as necessary . The fire must be provided with suffi-
cient combustion air to stabilize the draught, but not so much that the
wood burns away too quickly.
• In the final phase of the burning, push the control lever to the left (but
not completely). There is the risk of the chimney flue collapsing and a
smoldering fire resulting in the fireplace insert.
• To avoid resistance in the ember bed, the ash should frequently be raked
carefully so that the ash grate does not become clogged and the supply
air can continue to flow unhindered.
5.2 COMBUSTION AIR - CONVECTION - FRESH AIR
• The arrangements of the combustion air supply must not be altered and
have to be open.
• In order to prevent heat accumulation in the unit, the existing air outlet
grille or holes has/have to be free and (in the case of a fire) open.
• In the radiation area of the open fireplace, no objects made of flammable
materials may be located within a distance of 80 cm, measured from the
front edge of the firebox opening.
• Objects made of flammable materials must not be placed on exposed
surfaces of the fireplace.
• Do not use any vacuum-generating devices on the same storey/in the
same air space of the building (e.g. kitchen exhaust hood). There is a
risk of smoke entering the living space.
• Outside the radiation area, no flammable objects or materials can be
placed or installed on the mantel within a distance of 5 cm if a surface
temperature of > 85 °C has been or can be achieved.
• Please note that an operating fireplace reaches a very high heat. Tem-
peratures of more than 300 °C may occur on the glass pane. Always use
the supplied heat-resistant glove.
• Fireplaces may be operated in Germany only in accordance with 1.
BImSchV.
If you do not want to continue adding wood, the
control lever can be closed as soon as only a few
embers are remaining.
End of the combustion process
5. TECHNICAL INFORMATION
5.1 HEATING DURING TRANSITIONAL PERIODS
The basic requirement for correct fireplace system function is the draught
produced by your chimney (pressure head). This is dependent on the outside
temperature and therefore, to a large extent, on the season. Higher ambient
temperatures during the shoulder seasons (spring and autumn) can lead
to weaker draughts and consequently, poorer combustion or more copious
smoke production.
What can you do to help?
• Before starting a fire, empty the ash pot and the ash grate. Insert the ash
grate with the printed Spartherm logo facing downwards.
• If the chimney draught is weak, begin by making up a ‚pilot fire‘ with
plenty of kindling, in order to quickly increase the fireplace temperature
and create a stable draught.

GB 12
5.3 PROTECTION IN THE AREA OF THE FIREBOX
OPENING
Where the floor area to the front of an open fireplace is made of flammable
materials, these must be protected at the front by a covering of non-flam-
mable material to the height of the andiron or firebox base (floor height plus
30 cm, but a minimum of 50 cm) and at the side to the height of the andiron
or firebox base (floor height plus 20 cm, but a minimum of 30 cm).
The non-flammable covering may be made of ceramic (such as tiles or
flagstones), natural stone or mineral materials (such as marble or granite),
metal at least 1 mm thick or suitably sturdy and heat-resistant glass. The
flooring must be fastened down and secured against sidewards movement.
5.3.1 SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS FOR THE FIRE PROTEC-
TION OF FLOORING INSTALLED IN THE DIRECT
VICINITY OF FIREPLACES
Carpets and parquet flooring must be protected from spark emission using a
covering made from non-flammable materials (e.g. natural stone).

GB 13
5.4 CLEANING THE GLASS CERAMIC PANES ON THE
SLIDING DOORS
Cleaning the glass ceramic panes on the sliding doors can only take place
in the cold state (when the firebox is not burning and has cooled; no hot
ash in the firebox).
6. CLEANING AND CARE
What How often With what
Fireplace insert outside and
heating chamber
As necessary, at least 1 x per
year
Broom, vacuum cleaner or ash
vacuum cleaner
Glass pane Depending upon the behaviour
of the fire, recommended after
8 - 12 hours of operation for
optimal visibility
Glass cleaner for chimney and
fireplace panes available in
stores, cloth. Do not use any
abrasive cleaners for the pane!
Stainless steel surface As required Stainless steel care product and
a soft cloth
Varnished surfaces As required Damp cloth without cleaners
containing abrasives substances
Hot air grille As required Dust cloth or vacuum
Connecting piece between the
fireplace insert and the chimney
As necessary, at least 1 x per
year
Brush, ash vacuum
6.1 WA SHER
To keep your pane free of soot for as long as possible,
• use dry wood(„3. Fuel“)
• control the combustion air according to the burn-down situation („4.2.2
Burning“)
• have a very high combustion temperature
• ensure a suitable chimney draught
• make sure that the amount of firewood is within the optimal operating
range
It is normal for the glass pane to become covered with soot; this would not
justify a complaint. Clean the inside of the pane with the supplied panel
cleaner regularly (after about 8 -12 hours of operation) so that the soot
particles do not become burned in too much.
7. H E L P
7.1 GLASS BECOMES SOOTED HEAVILY, RAPIDLY AND
UNEVENLY
If this has not occurred from the outset, please look into the following issues:
• Have the correct burning materials and equipment been used?
• No transition period?
• No temperature inversion (the chimney cannot develop a draught)?
• Combustion air control fully open (lever to the left)?
• External combustion air line free?
• Does the accumulation of soot occur quickly within half an hour?
(Becoming progressively dirty from the operation of the system is nor-
mal. When driving, a car window becomes dirty, too!)
• is the seal positioned properly?
You should only call your local dealer/fireplace fitter if no improvement
occurs after you have been able to answer all of these questions with „yes“.

GB 14
7.2 FIRE IS DIFFICULT TO IGNITE AND MAINTAIN
If this did not occur from the outset, please look into the following issues:
• Have the correct burning materials and equipment been used?
• No transition period?
• No temperature inversion (the chimney cannot develop a draught)?
• Combustion air control fully open (lever to the left)?
• External combustion air line free?
You should only call your local dealer/fireplace fitter if no improvement
occurs after you have been able to answer all of these questions with „yes“.
7.3 SMOKE FILLS THE ROOM DURING REFUELLING
• See all questions „7.1 Glass becomes sooted heavily, rapidly and
unevenly“
• Has your fireplace insert already reached the operating temperature?
• Have you added the firewood onto a base of burning embers?
• Did you open the door slowly at the beginning?
You should only call your local dealer/fireplace fitter if no improvement
occurs after you have been able to answer all of these questions with „yes“.
7.4 TOO HIGH A RATE OF BURNING OR WOOD
CONSUMPTION
If this has not occurred from the outset, please look into the following issues:
• Have you lowered the setting of the combustion air control (the control
lever to the right)?
• After the starting phase, are you using hardwood with 15-18% remain-
ing moisture?
• Have you complied with the recommended amount of wood?
You should only call your local dealer/fireplace fitter if no improvement
occurs after you have been able to answer all of these questions with „yes“.
7.5 CHAMOTTE (FIRECLAY)
• Cracks or broken fireclay are not grounds for a justified complaint. Fire-
clay is a natural product and is exposed to high loads. A stress or strain
crack is not serious; it is a purely optical deficiency.
• Fireclay which has broken and shifted has to be replaced. To do so,
contact your specialist dealer/fireplace fitter.
7.6 CHIMNEY FIRE
The combustion of coniferous wood will cause sparks to travel from the
fireplace into the chimney. This can ignite the layer of soot in your chimney
(although this rarely happens if the chimney is cleaned regularly by the
chimney sweep). The chimney is burning. This can be recognised by flames
that blaze from the chimney opening, excessively flying sparks, smoke and
odours, as well as the chimney walls becoming progressively hotter.
It is important to act properly in such a case. You can alert the fire brigade
by calling 112 (an emergency call). The chimney sweep should also be
informed. Combustible objects should be located away from the chimney.
Wargning from experts: Under no circumstances should the fire be extin-
guished with water in the meantime. Temperatures in a chimney fire can
reach up to 1300 °C. Extinguishing water would immediately create steam.
A 10-liter bucket of water yields 17 cubic meters of steam. The enormous
pressure created as a result could push apart the chimney.
