Starting the stove
Open the stove door to activate the system. The system
will automatically go back to standby and the dampers
will be closed if lighting up does not occur within 
minutes.
Lighting up
Your new HWAM® SmartStove™ closes all valves when
not in use to prevent hot air from being sucked into the
chimney and out into the open (loss of energy). For the
HWAM® SmartStove™, this valve function comprises the
challenge that, at each new lighting, you will always
start out with a cold chimney - pay attention to this. It
requires extra rapid heating of the stove and chimney
when lighting the stove.
A proper lighting is best done with - kg. of firewood
chopped into - rather small pieces (the amount of
wood depends on the model - see the user manual for
instructions regarding the specific model). Then add
- pieces of fine kindling wood, and on top of it all,
place a couple of fire-lighters. Light up the firelighters
and close the door.
The HWAM® SmartControl™ starts when the combustion
chamber door is opened. The HWAM® SmartControl™
has a cold start-up program requiring that the operating
temperature is reached within  min. If the heat-up
is too slow, the app will ask for more firewood. This
may seem illogical when there is both firewood and
flames in the stove, but as long as the proper operating
temperature has not been reached, the stove does not
burn environmentally clean, and, therefore, the temper-
ature has to be reached fast. The reasons for a slow
rise in temperature may be: insucient draught in an
ancient brick chimney, damp firewood, too large fire-
wood pieces, or insucient firewood/kindling wood.
The following guide is an introduction as to how the HWAM® SmartStove™ is to be operated
from start to restoking and until the fire finally burns out. The stove is only EN-approved for
burning wood. It is recommended that you use dry split wood with a moisture content of a
maximum of %. Firing wet firewood causes soot, environmental pollution and bad fuel eco-
nomy. It is recommended that you purchase a moisture metre to verify that the wood has the
correct moisture content before being used for firing.
Firing process
IMPORTANT!
If the flue gases do not reach
a high enough temperature
for kindling or firing, HWAM®
SmartControl
TM
and the wire-
less room temperature sensor
emit a stoking alarm, even if
there is still unburned wood
and flames in the combustion
chamber. The stoking alarm
is emitted to make you aware
that the fire needs more
energy. Restoking with small
pieces of kindling wood can
often provide a more rapid
and sucient temperature
rise.
