NOBLE FLAME VENTURO Bioethanol Fireplace User Manual

THANKS!
Thank you for choosing our bioethanol fireplace Venturo

The bioethanol fireplace can be placed anywhere in the house or apartment. Bioethanol fireplaces are the environmentally friendly solution for a real fire without the need for a chimney or gas supply. Our fireplaces are made of stainless steel and/or steel with a modern design concept. They create a warm relaxed atmosphere. Since bioethanol burns almost residue-free, regular ventilation is sufficient in most cases, if the room is large enough.

CAUTION

Read and understand the entire instruction manual, including all safety information, before connecting or using the product.
Keep this manual for future reference. If you sell or give this product as a gift, be sure to include this manual with the produ

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

KEEP THIS MANUAL IN A SAFE PLACE!

CAUTION

Read all instructions before using this bioethanol fireplace!
The bio-fire consumes oxygen from the air in the room during operation. The rooms should be well ventilated, supplied with sufficient oxygen and fresh air (i.e. slightly open windows if the room is not ventilated).
The ventilated room in which the fireplace is operated should not be smaller than 44 m³ (with an average ceiling height of 2.30 m, the room should be at least 20 m²).
It is not recommended to use more than one fireplace in one room at the same time

CAUTION

Never leave open fire unattended!
The fireplace must not be used in the immediate vicinity of window coverings, curtains or other free-hanging materials or fabrics. To prevent your curtain from touching the appliance, keep a minimum distance of 1.5 m (5 ft). Take into account that light fabrics can be blown towards the fireplace by a gust of wind.
The use of „holding loops“ for curtains is strongly recommended.
Keep the bioethanol canisters tightly closed.
Keep the bioethanol out of reach of children and animals.
The fire container and the bioethanol must not be exposed to direct heat such as direct sunlight or central heating.
The fireplace should be at least 1 meter away from other objects or furniture made of combustible material.
Due to the heat of the fireplace, children and animals should stay away during and 30 minutes after using the fireplace.
Make sure that the place of installation has a fireproof base.
The surface on which the fireplace is placed must be able to support its weight.
We recommend that you have a fire blanket and/or fire extinguisher nearby.
Do not smoke while the bioethanol is in operation.
Avoid drafts in the room where the fireplace is operated.
The bioethanol fireplace must not be operated in the immediate vicinity of an air conditioning or ventilation system.
We recommend not to use the fireplace in rooms with constant high humidity.

CAUTION

The burner must always be filled to the maximum with 96.6% bioethanol before operation.
When using decorative ceramic wood or stones, it is essential to ensure that no decorative elements are directly in the flame. The decoration may only be placed around the burner slot and must be made of non-combustible material.
When replacing the decoration, make sure that it has cooled down.
During operation, the decoration material and the glass pane can reach a temperature of 90° – 140° C. The burner can reach temperatures of up to 200 ° C.

CAUTION

Risk of burns!
The product and its components become hot during use and remain hot for some time after the fire has been extinguished.

CAUTION

Do not touch the product until it has cooled down completely.

INSTALLATION & ASSEMBLY

ASSEMBLY

Please remove all packing materials before assembly and operation.
Stick the anti-slip pads to the bottom of the fireplace to protect your floor.
Insert the bioethanol burner into the fireplace facade.
Attach the glass holders to the pre-drilled holes in the fireplace facade using the included screws.
Then insert the glass panels into the holders and fasten them with the screws provided.
Please note that the screws for fastening the glass pane must only be tightened slightly

INSTALLATION OF FREESTANDING ETHANOL FIREPLACES

CAUTION

Make sure that the fireplace is placed on a fireproof surface.
Ensure sufficient stability of the fireplace. Also, the fireplace must be absolutely straight.
Check this with a spirit level. Otherwise, bioethanol may leak.
Place the fireplace on a heat-resistant base.

FILLING & LIGHTING THE BURNER

Open the burner with the extinguishing aid.
Distribute approx. 1/3 of the supplied glow wire in the burner slot.
The glow wire makes your fire look even more lifelike and also serves as a safety feature, for detecting flames that are not immediately visible.
Use a funnel for filling.
Use only 96.6% bioethanol. We recommend our Gala Bioethanol.
If you use higher percentage bioethanol, there is a risk of fire and damage to your fireplace.
The burner must always be filled to the maximum with bioethanol before operation.
Spilled ethanol must be removed with an absorbent cloth and the affected area cleaned with water to prevent ignition outside the burner.
Long lighters or long matches are ideal for lighting bioethanol burners

CAUTION

There is a risk of deflagration. Never throw used matches into the burner.
If the flame does not ignite, please repeat the ignition process until the flame burns evenly.

CAUTION

Wait at least 30 minutes after extinguishing the flame before restarting the fireplace. There is a risk of deflagration.
The flame glows slowly and small at first. It may take up to 15 minutes to reach the optimum temperature and flame height.
The fuel should be stored at room temperature to facilitate its ignition

CAUTION

Fuel must be stored a safe distance (min. 1 m / 40 inches) from the fireplace. Do not place ethanol fuel in front of the fireplace.
Please note that the ethanol sometimes burns bluish and is difficult to see. So always make sure the burner is off and cold before adding ethanol.

CAUTION

When lighting, always make sure the fireplace is on a non-combustible surface (not directly on a carpet)!

EXTINGUISHING

CAUTION

Never extinguish the flame with water!
Do not refill the bioethanol while the burner is still burning or hot.
Allow the bioethanol to burn as completely as possible. This prevents residue from remaining in the burner and fizzling out when it is relit.
If you want to extinguish the flame before the bioethanol has completely burned, use the supplied extinguishing aid to close the burner opening. Wait approximately 30 minutes for the burner to reach room temperature. Refill the burner completely before the next use.
Use only the extinguishing aid supplied with this unit. Never use a wooden or plastic tool and never use your bare hands.
The burner must always be fully open during operation to prevent pressure from building up inside the burner.
To extinguish the fire, quickly pull the slide to the front of the burner. If the fire is not extinguished, open the slide again and repeat the extinguishing process.

TROUBLESHOOTING

CAUTION

ERROR	POSSIBLE REASON	SOLUTION
Soot formation	Wrong fuel (e.g. gel)	Use only 96.6% bioethanol
Soot formation	Burner slot covered by objects	Expose the burner opening and

place the decoration only around the burner slot
Burning time too short| Wrong fuel (e.g. gel)| Use only 96.6% bioethanol
Burning time too short| Burner not completely filled| Extinguish the burner and refill with new bioethanol after 30 minutes
Flame height too high| Wrong fuel (e.g. gel)| Use only 96.6% bioethanol
Flame does not extinguish when burner slot is closed| This can happen with larger burners, because the ethanol vapor tries to find its way through every small opening| Repeat the extinguishing process several times and faster to cut off the oxygen supply
