CAUTION!
To prevent adverse effects on health, nobody
should stay in the room(s) during this process
unless absolutely necessary. Make sure the
room is well-ventilated and open the windows
and outside doors. If needed, use a fan for
faster air circulation.
If the maximum temperature is not reached during the fi rst
heating operation, you may notice an odour for a short period
of time the next time the stove is used as well.

Lighting the Fire
The fi ring up phase should be as short as possible, since higher
emissions can occur during this phase.
The slider settings described in Table 1 (see fi gure on the
right) are recommendations that were determined under
conformance testing conditions, in compliance with the
relevant standard. Depending on the weather conditions and
the draught capability of your chimney, accordingly adjust the
slider positions for your Merida to the local conditions.
NOTE!
The Merida may only be operated when the fi re
box door is closed; the fi re box door may
only be opened to add fuel.
WARNING!
Never use spirits, petrol, or other fl ammable
fl uids to light the stove.
