Connection to the Chimney
The chimney must be of a proper height to ensure that the draft is sucient and that smoke
does not become bothersome. If the chimney is so high that it cannot be cleaned from the
top, an easily accessible cleaning hatch must be installed. We recommend, however, that you
always contact your local chimney sweep before purchasing a chimney.
Make sure that the chimney is tight and that no false draft is caused around neither the cover
plate, in connection with a covered smoke outlet, nor the cleanout door and pipe connections.
Please note that bent and/or horizontal smoke pipes will reduce the eect of the chimney draft.
Requirements for Chimney and Smoke Pipe
Nominal draft: Approximately 12 Pascal/1.2 mm water gauge.
Minimum clearance: Ø150 mm, which corresponds to your WIKING wood-burning stove’s
exhaust pipe. Smoke pipe and chimney must always be suitable for a stove connection. Ask
your WIKING dealer for more information.

User Instructions
Before Using the Wood-Burning Stove
It is important that you ensure the following:
• That all of the wood-burning stove’s individual components are in place.
• That the chimney has been approved by your local chimney sweep.
• That fresh air can be supplied to the room in which the wood-burning stove is to be installed.
Some Things Worth Knowing about Fuels
Permitted Fuel Types
The wood-burning stove is only EN-approved for ring with wood. Using dry wood with a water
content of 12-18% is recommended. Firing with wet wood results in soot, environmental strain
and poor fuel eciency. It is recommended to purchase a hygrometer to continuously
check that the rewood has the correct moisture content before using it for ring.
Recommended Wood Types
All types of wood, such as birch, beech, oak, elm, ash, coniferous and fruit trees can be used
as fuel in your wood-burning stove. The big dierence is found not in the heat value, but in the
wood’s weight per cubic meter. As beech weighs more per cubic meter of wood than common
spruce (e.g.), more common spruce must be added to provide the same amount of warmth the
beech provides.
Prohibited Fuel Types
Firing with the following is prohibited: Printed matter • Plastic • Rubber • Chipboards • Liquid
