IMPORTANT INFORMATION
As per the German Equipment and Product Safety Act (GPSG) and our
statutory duty to notify, we would like to inform you about heating with this
product.
The Bio Chimney combustion heat at 0.5 litres / hour equates to approx.
3,300 W. The calorific value of 96% ethanol equates to approx. 29,600 kJ
/ kg. With fuel consumption of 0.5 l/h (approx. 0.4 kg/h) the heat released
is approx. 3,300 W.
However, the decorative fireplace requires a plentiful supply of fresh air
when operated as otherwise the amount of carbon dioxide created exceeds
the permitted concentration in the room air.
As a rule, the fresh air supplied is cooler than the room air to be heated
up which results in a loss of energy. The effective heat output of a biofuel
fireplace is thus minimal and, as such, decorative fireplaces which use
biofuel are not sources of heat.
Rather these are merely decorative and are not intended for heating or
continuous operation. Nevertheless, it should be taken into account that
heat is generated as a by-product of the combustion process. This can
cause increased heating in the room where the fireplace is installed. Read
the safety instructions and measures for rear ventilation carefully.
Observe these operating instructions.
1. GENERAL INFORMATION
Small children, elderly or infirm persons: As is the case with all open
flames, it is expedient that you attach a protective fixture for these groups
of persons. Risk of burn injuries! Never leave these groups of persons
unattended near the ebios-fire when a fire is burning or has just been extin-
guished! The ebios-fire must not be operated without supervision!
State-specific and local directives and regulations, in particular the fire
safety regulations of the German Federal State or the Association of Swiss
Canton Fire Insurance companies (VKF) must be complied with for the set-
up and operation of your ebios-fire.
Ensure sufficient stability when setting up the fireplace and choose a loca-
tion where movement of the burner during operation as a result of impacts
etc. is ruled out.
All models may only be operated with the closed housing cover.
Please note that the fuel may not be refilled whilst the device is still warm or
burning. The device may ONLY be refilled via the filling opening and NOT via
the burner channel! We recommend extinguishing the ebios-fire by burning
the fuel until the tank is empty. When not in operation, the cover plate must
be above the burner.
Only allow the device to be refilled by individuals who are familiar with the
safety instructions and who you have trained on its operation.
The ebios-fire is not a heater but a decorative fire.

GB 7
DAMAGE DURING TRANSIT should be reported immediately to the supplier.
Protect the cladding and visible elements of the fireplace furniture from
soiling and damage during installation and transportation.
2.5 INSTALLATION SITE
When setting up/installing the ebios-fire ensure that the device is not posi-
tioned within the direct radiation area of large heat sources (heaters, stoves
etc.) or in rooms exposed to high temperatures (e.g., saunas). If the ethanol
fireplace is heated up externally when not in use, this can cause fuel in the
tank to be expelled over the burner channel and accumulate in the safety
tray. In such cases, the burner is to be removed and the tray emptied before
the ebios-fire is lit.
Your ebios-fire must not be installed in:
• In stairways, unless they are in residential buildings with two or fewer
flats.
• In hallways with general access.
• In garages.
• In rooms in which highly combustible or potentially explosive substances
or mixtures are processed, stored or manufactured in quantities that
would be hazardous in the event of ignition or explosion
• In insufficiently ventilated rooms.
• In areas accessible to the public which are not supervised.
• In areas which are not protected against transverse ventilation
• On tables, pieces of furniture, shelves etc.

2.7 COMBUSTION AIR SUPPLY
Your ebios-fire draws its combustion air from the room in which it is
installed (dependent on indoor air). It must be ensured that there is a suf-
ficient supply of fresh air to the room in which the fire is installed. It is
possible that there is not a sufficient supply of fresh air if the windows and
doors are sealed (e.g., in combination with energy saving measures). This
can compromise your well-being and, under certain circumstances, also
your safety and the combustion performance. Open a window to ensure a
sufficient supply of fresh air
.
3. OPERATING MANUAL
Read these installation and operating instructions carefully before installing
and starting up your ebios-fire. All items are to be removed from the ebios-
fire Oxford 600/700 (except the burner unit). Please follow the regulations
for fire protection and dangerous goods!
3.1 GENERAL INFORMATION ON OPERATION
• Small children, elderly or infirm persons: As is the case with all open
flames, it is expedient that you attach a protective fixture for these
groups of persons (available as an accessory from specialist dealers).
Risk of burn injuries! Never leave these groups of persons unattended
near the ebios-fire when a fire is burning or has just been extinguished!
Make these individuals aware of these risks.
• No combustible objects may be placed or laid on the free surfaces of
the ebios-fire-Oxford 600/700. Do not place items of clothing on the
furniture to dry. Racks for drying clothing may only be placed outside the
radiation area (see item 2.6.4 Fire protection)! Risk of fires!
• Thermal energy is released during the combustion process which causes
the burner, the housing surfaces, the glass panes (depending on the
model) and the protective glass panes to heat up. It is not permitted to
touch these items without taking the necessary precautions (e.g., heat-
resistant glove). Risk of burn injuries!
• Never leave the fire unattended whilst it is alight!

GB 14
• It is recommended to open a window during operation.
• Several decorative ethanol fireplaces may only be operated if the fuel
consumption rate of all devices together does not exceed 0.5 l/h and if
additional measures are taken to ensure sufficient ventilation. In this
context, please observe the information on page 5, under item 2.1 Tech-
nical data.
• The burner may only be operated with the burner mat and these wicks.
It is not permitted to change the number of wicks, the wick material or
the burner mat.
• The ebios-fire furniture must not be modified.
• This is merely a decorative fireplace for use in the home and is not
intended for heating or continuous operation! Nevertheless, it should
be taken into account that heat (approx. 3 kW) is generated as a by-
product of the combustion process. Amongst other things this can cause
increased heating in the room where the fireplace is installed.
• There should never be any fuel in the tank and the extinguishing slide
must always be placed on the burner when the latter is not in use.
• The burners are designed for the fuel to be burnt until all gone. If you
only wish to enjoy the flames for a short period of time, use a corre-
spondingly smaller amount of fuel. If you wish to take the burner out of
operation prematurely, place the cover slide on the burner with the aid
of the cold hand. After shutting down the burner, always allow at least
1 hour.
• The burner must NOT be filled when warm or alight and must NOT be
filled via the burner channel! DANGER TO LIFE!
• The handling of fuel in the vicinity of the hot or burning device is
associated with significant risks and is not permitted!
• Only fill the burner via the filling opening and never via the burner
channel!
• Should you accidentally spill ethanol, clean this up immediately and
before lighting the burner!
• Please note that the luminosity of the flame can decrease to such an
extent that the flame is no longer clearly visible. Make children and
others in the home aware of this.
• Minimum waiting time between extinguishing and refilling the burner
= 1 hour!
• Do not smoke when handling fuel and operating the ebios-fire.
Failure to follow these basic rules can result in uncontrolled ignition or even
explosions!
3.2 COMBUSTIBLE
Bioethanol (chemical formula C2H6O) with an ethanol content of 96% is used
as the fuel. This can be purchased from specialist dealers. It is a dangerous
substance as per ADR: Class 3 PG II, UN 1170.
Under no circumstances should other fuels such as petrol, spirit or similar
flammable liquids be used. Do not mix the fuels together or with other
substances. The burners may only be operated using the prescribed fuel
(96% degree of purity) otherwise the warranty will be rendered void and the
device may be unsafe or dangerous to operate.
Ethanol is a highly flammable liquid which must be stored well sealed, pro-
tected from light and away from sources of fire. It is permitted to store max.
5 l in the living space and max. 20 l in the cellar. Keep bioethanol out of
the reach of children. For your safety only fill the burner just before use to
prevent it from being ignited unintentionally or by unauthorised persons and
to also stop the fuel from evaporating.

GB
GB 15
Please note that ethanol is used exclusively for combustion and it not suit-
able for consumption. Supervise your children! If swallowed consult a doctor
immediately and present the fuel label.
3.3. STARTUP
The ebios-fire-Oxford 600/700 is supplied with an empty burner to prevent
any ethanol from flowing out or evaporating during transit. Ensure (particu-
larly before being put into use) that there is no fuel in the safety container.
Proceed as follows:
1. Ensure that the air supply is sufficient.
2. Make sure that the burner has gone out and has cooled down fully (mini-
mum waiting time after being extinguished = 1 hour). Make sure that the
extinguishing slider is placed on the burner and covers the burner mat.
3. The burner can remain in the housing
when being refilled. For this purpose,
open the tank slider.
4. Check the tank content.
5. Insert the funnel into the filler neck and fill the burner using the 5 litre
canister supplied, and the filling adapter screwed on. The tank is full
when the level indicator moves upwards. Please obtain the filling quan-
tity from the technical data under 2.1. Still leave the tank slider open.
6. Take the bottle to wet the burner. Insert the bottle with the opening
into the tank opening so that it projects into the fuel. Press the bottle
together so that the air escapes and the fuel is sucked up when it is
released. Wait until the bottle returns to its original shape. Then close
the tank slider.
7. Wet the burner mat with sufficient fuel using the bottle which has just
been filled. (Filled to half or three quarters of the bottle filling quantity).
8. Use the stick lighter to ignite the burner mat Take a few steps back. It
may take a few minutes until uniform flames appear.
9. Extinguishing the fire: In order to extinguish the ethanol fire, use the cold
hand and hook this into the extinguishing slide. To extinguish, simply pull
the extinguishing slide closed. In individual cases, this procedure may
have to be carried out several times.

GB 16
Should you pour in too much fuel and cause the burner to overflow, the
ethanol collects in the reactor containment. Empty this immediately and
before lighting the burner. Clean the surface of the burner until it is dry and
completely free of ethanol.
Caution: Ethanol is highly combustible. There must be no sources of igni-
tion in the vicinity!
3.4 REFILLING THE BURNER
The burner must NOT be filled when warm or alight and must NOT be filled
via the burner channel! DANGER TO LIFE!
Minimum waiting time between extinguishing and refilling the burner = 1
hour!
Please also leave the protective panes which may still be hot on the device
during this time! Risk of burn injuries!
The burners are designed for the fuel to be burnt until all gone. If you only
wish to enjoy the flames for a short period of time, use a correspondingly
smaller amount of fuel. If you wish to take the burner out of operation
prematurely, place the extinguishing slide on the burner as described in
step 9 under item 3.3.
For filling the burner, orientate yourself on the steps 1-9 under item 3.3.
4. CLEANING AND CARE
The ebios-fire–Oxford 600/700 may only be cleaned when cold.
4.1 CLEANING CLADDING PARTS
• Wait until the device has cooled down before cleaning (at least 1 hour)!
• Decorative metal surfaces and the cladding parts can be cleaned with a
moist cloth (do not use a micro-fibre cloth!).
• Glass surfaces can be cleaned with a standard glass cleaner and a soft
cloth (do not use a micro-fibre cloth!).
• Stainless steel surfaces can be cleaned with a standard stainless steel
cleaning agent. Only use in the direction of the finish!
Remove any dust on and below the ebios-fire furniture regularly as dust
particles can burn or char. This can cause dirt in the room and on the
furnishings where the fire is installed.
5. MAINTENANCE / TROUBLESHOOTING
• The wick and burner mat must be visually inspected at regular inter-vals.
The material can be easily damaged. As such, the burner mat should not
be folded, bent or similar. It is not permitted to change the burner mat or
wick.
