3.4 שריפה ראשונית (ריפוי)
During the first few uses, the stove's paint will cure. This process may produce a slight odor and some smoke. Ensure adequate ventilation during this period. Burn small fires for the first 2-3 days to allow the paint to cure gradually.
4. הוראות הפעלה
4.1 סוג דלק
Only use dry, seasoned hardwood (e.g., oak, beech, birch) with a moisture content below 20%. Burning wet wood reduces efficiency, increases creosote buildup, and pollutes the environment.
4.2 הצתת אש
- Open the air supply controls fully.
- הניחו נייר מקומט או מצתים טבעיים על הרשת.
- Stack small pieces of kindling on top of the firelighters.
- הדליקו את מצתים.
- לאחר שהעץ ההדלק בוער היטב, הוסיפו בהדרגה חתיכות עץ גדולות יותר.
- Close the door using the push-to-open mechanism.
4.3 Air Supply Adjustment
The KRATKI Bjorn stove features an intuitive air supply adjustment system. Adjust the primary air (for ignition and burning wood from below) and secondary/tertiary air (for clean combustion and glass cleaning) to control the burn rate and heat output. For optimal efficiency and a clean burn, aim for lively flames, not smoldering wood.
4.4 תדלוק
When refueling, open the door slowly to prevent smoke spillage. Add new logs onto a bed of glowing embers. Close the door and adjust the air supply as needed.

- Ensure ashes are completely cold before disposing of them in a non-combustible container.
5.2 ניקוי זכוכית
The clean glass system helps keep the panoramic glass clear. If soot builds up, clean the glass when the stove is cold using a specialized stove glass cleaner or a damp cloth dipped in fine ash.
5.3 ניקוי ארובות וצנרת
Have your chimney and flue pipes inspected and cleaned by a certified chimney sweep at least once a year, or more frequently depending on usage.
