[. . . ] € Rated heat output capacity in continuous use : • • Obtained with a draft of 12 Pa, and a wood load of 9 kg. Reload every 3 hours on an ash bed : 0, 3 kg (that is approximately 3 cm thick) for C07787 0, 35 kg (that is approximately 3 cm thick) for C07750, C07790, C07708, C07709 and C077AA with the air ventilation pull handle opened to its maximum. The announced power is the average power obtained with each 3 hours load. € Slow combustion, burning period superior to 10h in continuous use : • • Obtained on a 6 Pa draft with a 9 kg-load composed of a non-split log of strong wood, preferably with large diameters (superior to 16 cm). [. . . ] - Once the "kindling wood" load is burning, open the door, load the appliance with the recommended fuel and use the regulation devices to obtain the burning required. 1 Periodic and continuous use - The intermittent use of the appliance requires a reload every 45 minutes. This type of use is particularly recommended as it environmentally friendly. - The apparatus may also be used in continuous mode when periodic use is not possible or when reduced burning is required. In this case, maximum heat output can be maintained for 3 hours and with a slow combustion rate, and a low heat output, the burning period can extend to 10 hours with a 9 kg load. 2 Fire duct - The burning required is obtained by using the control devices (see § 4. Use this position only temporarily, to heat the rooms following prolonged absence. For intermediate heating, use a smaller load : one or two logs (air damper half-open) (Fig. For a long-lasting heat output with a slow combustion rate, use 1 or 2 non-split logs with a diameter superior to 15 cm (air damper closed) (Fig. - To get a long-lasting combustion rate, reload on a merely burning bed of embers. - For rapid restarting of the fire, add some kindling wood, load the logs, and only if necessary keep the door partly open for several minutes, without leaving the appliance unattended. This method gets the fire going quickly again, especially if the wood is slightly damp. - Change the burning rate (switching from a slow combustion rate to a normal rate for example) before reloading, during the combustion stage of the embers, to enable the appliance and smoke duct to change progressively from one burning rate to another. 16 - To prevent smoke from driving back and the ash from entering the room, at the time of loading, opening the door requires a number of precautions: . Open the door partly, waits for the open door suction to start, and open the door slowly. - Using the stove in continuous mode and a slow combustion rate, especially in milder temperature conditions (bad draught) and with wet timber, leads to an incomplete combustion and the formation of tar and soot deposits : o o Alternate the slow burning periods with returns to normal burning. Burning small loads is recommended - After the stove has been used in slow combustion mode, the front glass may darken because of a slight soot deposit, this deposit will burn off (by pyrolysis) with the next hot fire (higher combustion rate). The fitting of a suction moderating flap in the connecting duct enables to control the burning, notably slow burning, enabling long lasting heating (see installation manual). 3 De-ashing The air used for burning the wood comes in under the grate when the damper is open. Therefore, it is vital, to ensure optimum performance and prevent the degradation of the grating due to overheating, to prevent any obstruction by performing regularly de-ashing operations and evacuating the ash : - Use the scraper (1) to de-ash the grating (Fig. - The ash pan, located under the grille, can be easily removed using the poker (Fig. - The level of ash must never reach the stove's cast iron grating : de-ash every 2 to 3 days. [. . . ] The repairing, the replacement or the alteration of parts under the warranty period can neither have the effect of continuing the period of the latter, not get to any compensation for any fees, for late delivery, accidents or any such damages. EXCLUSION The warranty is unavailable for the following cases, without this list being exhaustive : Fitting out, fitting out and assembling of appliances not due to Deville. Consequently Deville can’t be considered as responsible for damages or supplies, or accidents to persons due to local laws and regulations (for example the fact that there is no linking to the earth ground connection or a wrong drought of a fitting out). Fair wear and tear of the supplies or abnormal use of the supplies including the case of industrial or trading use or a use of the supplies in different conditions from the ones it was built for.
