4. FIRE SAFETY
Chimney stove STEFANY Forno / SVEZIA New / NORVEGIA New
In the installation of the stove the following safety measures are to be followed: (See Picture 6)
a) the minimum distance from flammable object and sensitive to heat (furniture, wood sheathings, fabrics.
etc.) and from materials with flammable structure must be 20 cm’s. on the back and on both sides (see
Picture 6 A).
b) In front of the chimney stove there must not be any flammable object or building material, sensitive to
heat, at less than 100 cm’s. of distance. This distance can be reduced to 40 cm’s if you will install in
front of the element to protect a retro ventilated and heat resistant protection. All minimum safety
measures are indicated in the plate of the products and they must be absolutely respected.
c) Should any appliance be installed on a floor not completely refractory, it is necessary to foresee a fireresistant
foundation, for example a steel footboard (dimensions according to the local regulations). The
platform must stick out 50 cm’s in front and 30 cm’s sideways (Picture 6 B)
The stove must work exclusively with inserted ash drawer.
Solid combustion residuals (ashes) must be collected in an air-tight and fire-resistant container. The device
must never be switched on when there are gaseous emissions or vapors (for example glue for linoleum,
gasoline etc.). Do not deposit flammable materials close to the stove.
During the combustion will be spread thermal energy which warms up the surfaces, the door, the fireplace
glass, the handles and knobs, the smoke pipe and the front side of the stove. Please avoid the contact of
these parts without gloves or the relevant tools.
Warn children of the danger and keep them away during the operation of the stove .
The use of a wrong or wet fuel causes the formation of creosote deposits in the flue and will fuel a
chimney fire.
4.1. FIRST-AID MEASURES
Should any fire arise in the stack or in the flue:
a) Close the feeding door and the ash drawer door.
b) Close the controls of combustion air
