4.2 Protecting the floor
• Any combustible floor beneath a fireplace must have a floor protector that extends a minimum of 300mm at
the front.
• If installed directly on combustible material, the floor protector must be made of a minimum 6mm thick cement
sheet. Non-combustible finishes can be applied to the floor protector (tiles, steel sheet, light concrete, etc).
• If the combustible floor is installed on concrete, you can replace the combustible material with non-
combustible material laid directly onto the concrete.

The paintwork is relatively fragile, so handle the appliance with
care when installing it.
> Remove the fixing screw from the crosspiece [diagram 2].

CHECKING THE CONTENTS
In the device’s combustion chamber,
you will find:
- A can of paint for touch-ups,
- A black Stuv glove to give to the end user,
- Two pairs of white gloves for handling the
stove, - A pack of hardware containing
the screws to attach the smoke outlet,
- Installation and usage instructions.
If any accessories or options have
been ordered (floor plate, outside air
connections,...), they are arranged around
the stove or its packaging.
Make sure you have received all the
accessories and options you ordered

DISMANTLING AND MOVING
Note: In order to lighten the appliance for easier handling and to avoid damaging the finishing elements, it is necessary to dismantle the door and
the facings of the appliance before moving it. The handling is then done by its tubular structure.
Attention
To remove the rear facings, remove the
4 upper nuts [Figure 6], then loosen
the 2 lower nuts and slide the facings
sideways out of the groove [Figure 7&8].

5. AIR INTAKE
COMBUSTION AIR INLET
OPTION 1: AIR FROM THE ROOM
You can chose the combustion air to be drawn directly from the room. You must make sure the room is sufficiently ventilated when the stove is in
use.
NB
Beware of active air extractive systems (cooker hood, air-conditioning unit, controlled mechanical ventilation, another stove etc.) in the same
space or in a neighbouring room. They also use up a lot of air, could cause low pressure in the area and disrupt the smooth running of the stove. It
is also important to make sure that the configuration chosen is completely compatible with local and national regulations.
OPTION 2: AIR FROM OUTSIDE
External air inlet
An adequate air inlet should ideally be pointing either: - vertically under the stove, to be connected via a 80mm nozzle [figure 1].
- horizontally behind the stove, to be connected using an external air inlet kit at the back and a 80mm nozzle [figure 2].
This air inlet should preferably come from a ventilated cavity, a ventilated space (cellar), directly from the outside (mandatory in some countries).
In this case, be aware of the risk of condensation.
The duct that brings in the external air...
... will be protected from the outside with a grill where the cross-section of the clearance is at least equivalent to the cross-section of the air inlet.
Watch out for water getting in as well as wind, as these could make the system ineffective.
.... will be as short as possible to prevent pressure loss and make sure the house doesn’t get cold.
If you use our standard 80mm flexible duct, we recommend a maximum length of 2m and no more than 4 bends. If you do not follow these
recommendations, you will need to compensate by having a larger diameter and/or a more flexible tube.
Make sure you do not squash the duct.
