15. LIGHTING
IMPORTANT: The first time that the appliance is lit, there will be an odor given off which
disappears after a short use. It must be ensured that, in any case, a good ventilation of the
environment exists. Upon the first ignition we suggest loading a reduced quantity of fuel and
gradually increasing the calorific value of the equipment. The odors and smoke are regular
occurrences which originate from the stabilization of paint with which the parts have been
protected, that is why it is necessary that the room is ventilated.
Therefore, it is extremely relevant to take these easy steps during the lighting:
1. Make sure that a sufficient air change is assured in the room where the appliance is installed.
2. During the first starts, do not load excessively the combustion chamber (about half the quantity
indicated in the instructions manual) and keep the fire continuously ON for at least 6-10 hours
with the regulators less open than the value indicated in the instructions manual.
3. Repeat this operation for at least 4-5 or more times, according to your possibilities.
4. Then load more and more fuel (following in any case the provisions contained in the
installation booklet concerning maximum load) and keep the fire on for a longer time period.
5. During the first starts, no object should be leaned on the appliance or touch enameled surfaces.
6. Once the «break-in» has been completed, it is possible to use the product as per instruction
and avoid abrupt heating with excessive loads.
To light the fire, it is suggested using small wood pieces together with paper or other traded lighting
means.
It is FORBIDDEN to use any liquid substance as for ex. alcohol, gasoline, oil and similar.
Operation with wood:
Open the primary and secondary air control and lit the fire.
After establishing stable operation regime (10 to 15 min), close the primary regulator and adjust the
desired operation regime.
The openings for air (primary and secondary) must be opened together just until the stable
operation regime of the furnace is achieved. Never overload the stove.
Too much fuel and too much air for the combustion may cause overheating and then damage
the stove.
