WARNING STATEMENT:

A SMOKE ALARM IS RECOMMENDED FOR THE ROOM IN

WHICH THE UNIT IS LOCATED. IN THE EVENT OF A CHIMNEY FIRE, IMMEDIATELY:

A. CLOSE THE UNIT DOORSAND DRAFT CONTROLS COMPLETEL Y.

B. CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.

C. EVACUATE THE HOUSE.

A MAJOR FEATURE OF A DOVRE UNIT IS ITS PREMIUM, OUALITY CAST IRON BODY. CAST IRON HAS

BEEN USED TO HOLD FIRE FOR SEVERAL HUNDRED YEARS IN EUROPE. A PRIMARY REASON FOR

CHOOSING TO BUILD OUR UNITS WITH CAST IRON IS ITS PROVEN DURABILITY.

UNLIKE COMMON PLATE

STEEL

DOVRE CAST IRON WILL EXPAND AND CONTRACT WITHOUT LOSING ITS ORIGINAL SHAPE OR

STRENGTH, WHEN REPEATEDLY EXPOSED TO THE TEMPERATURES OF SOLID FUEL BURNING. BECAUSE

IT DOES NOT WARP OR CHANGE SHAPE, OUR CAST IRON IS IDEALLY SUITED TO MAINTAINING THE

REQUIRED AIRTIGHT CONSTRUCTION NECESSARY IN A DOVRE UNIT.

ANOTHER CAST IRON ADVANTAGE IS ITS SUPERIOR ABILITY TO EFFECTIVELY TRANSMIT THE HEAT

FROM THE FIRE CHAr''lBER INTO THE SURROUNDING AREA. THIS CHARACTERISTIC OF MINIMAL HEAT

RESISTANCE AND EVEN TEMPERATURE DISPERSAL ISAS IMPORTANT TOA DOVRE UNIT AS IT HAS BEEN

TO OLD FASHIONED ('AST IRON FRYING PANS.

WARNING STATEMENT:

SINCE THE OUTSIDE SURFACE OF THE CAST IRON DOORS

BECOMES VERY HOT, YOU SHOULD USE A GLOVE OR OTHER HAND PROTECTION WHEN

OPERATING THE APPLIANCE.

THIS WILL ELIMINATE ACCIDENTAL SKIN BURNS. BE

SURE TO WARN CHILDREN TO NEVER TOUCH THE UNIT WHEN IT IS IN OPERATION

WITHOUT PROPER SKIN PROTECTION.

KEEP ALL HOUSEHOLD COMBUSTIBLES FAR AWAY FROM THE DOORS.

TO INSURE YOUR CAST IRON PROVIDES THE YEARS OF SATISFACTION IT IS CAPABLE OF, YOU MUST

ALSO REMEMBER THAT IT IS A SLIGHTLY BRITTLE METAL. IT MAY NOT WITHSTAND THE SHOCK OF A

SHARP BLOW OR A SUDDEN TEMPERATURE CHANGE, SUCH AS POURING WATER ON A HOT STOVE.

PLACING AN ICE-LADEN LOO AGAINST THE HOT CAST IRON CAN ALSO CAUSE THERMAL SHOCK AND

CRACK THE METAL. ADDITIONALLY, CONTACT WITH WATER WILL POSSIBLY CAUSE RUST TO FORM.

SHOULD THIS OCCUR, CLEAN THE METAL SURFACE AND COVER WITH TOUCH UP PAINT WHEN THE UNIT

IS NOT OPERATING.

TO MORE OUlCKL Y ACHIEVE BEST RESULTS OPERATING YOUR HEATER, WE STRONGLY RECOMMEND THE

USE OF A STOVE TOP SURFACE THERMOMETER.

THIS THERMOMETER HELPS YOU MONITOR HEAT

OUTPUT, SO YOU CAN QUICKLY LEARN THE EFFECT OF DIFFERENT AIR CONTROL SETTINGS, AND THE

RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN STOVE TEMPERATURE AND ROOM TEMPERATURE.

IN ADDITION, THE MODEL

500CC HAS A CATALYTIC PROBE THERMOMETER (CPT) WHICH TELLS YOU HOW THE CATALYTIC

COMBUSTOR IS WORKING.

THIS INDICATOR IS CRITICAL TO THE DAILY OPERATION OF THE MODEL

500CC.

THE MODEL SOOCC ALSO CONTAINS A DAMPER BYPASS SYSTEM. THE BYPASS DAMPER AND CATALYTIC

COMBUSTOR WORK TOOETHER. THE BYPASS MUST BE OPEN WHEN THE COMBUSTOR IS NOT HOT

ENOUGH TO IGNITE (CPT 400·

F TO 500·

F), AND ANYTIME YOU OPEN A DOOR ON THE UNIT.

OTHERWISE, WHENEVER THE CPT READING IS OVER 400

TO 500· F AND THE HEATER DOORS ARE

CLOSED, THE BYPASS DAt'lPER SHOULD BE CLOSED FOR BEST EFFICIENCY AND EMISSION RESULTS.
