2.3 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).
Your ebios-fire must not be installed in:
1. In garages.
2. 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
3. In insufficiently ventilated rooms.
2.4 INSTALLATION
2.4.1 DISTANCE FROM COMBUSTIBLE COMPONENTS
Please maintain a sufficient distance from combustible materials and ensure
that no combustible objects are located above the flame.
2.5 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. Please follow the regulations for fire protec-
tion 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. Do not attempt to dry out any clothing on the hot tiles.
• 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!
Note: These distances from combustible
components apply to all models in the La
Vela range. With and without glass (La Vela
I – IX).
