1. INTRODUCTORY NOTES
Please read and observe the instruction carefully. Hereinafter, you shall find the data
regarding the stove and recommendations for the installation and maintenance.
The efficiency depends on the correct installation, which must be carried out by a
professional observing the standards and valid security regulations.
When choosing the place for installation, take care to provide unobstructed airflow and
that the floor and the surrounding objects are made of non-flammable material.
Keep in mind the load-bearing capacity of your floor. Your floor may not be able to
take the weight of our product; in that case, consult a professional to strengthen your
floor or install additional load-bearing framing. Moreover, if there is a flammable floor, it must
be protected by an insulating plate (steel, brass, marble, stone, etc.), which extends at least
50 cm from the front and at least 10 cm from the sides.
Do not place armchairs, seats, curtains or any flammable object within 100 cm in
front of the stove as well as within 50 cm on the sides.
The cast-metal and sheet-metal parts of the stove are protected by heat-resistant
paint; when the stove is operated for the first few timws, this paint stabilises, producing
smoke and odour. When this occurs, ventilate the room where the stove is located.
Children and pregnant women, as well as persons suffering from respiratory problems,
should avoid the room where the stove is located for the first several times the stove is
operated.
The stove is designed to be operated with its door closed. The door should be opened
only to add fuel. Open door gradually to equalise internal pressure. Opening the doors
suddenly may cause flame and smoke to escape outside. Fuel should be added only
when glowing embers have formed and no intense flames are present.
Avoid operating the stove in adverse weather conditions and strong winds.
Caution: the stove and the door handle will heat up when operated, so it is necessary
to take caution measures. Use gloves when opening the door. Do not touch parts of the
stove that are hot (primarily the cast-metal parts, hot plate, and any visible sheet-metal
surfaces).
Keep children away from the stove.
Ensure a constant supply of fresh air into the room where the stove is located, since
it uses oxygen from room air for combustion.
Do not allow parts of the stove to become excessively hot, as this will make the
stove unsafe and reduce its operating life.
Do not use the stove to burn garbage or use fuels that are inappropriate or not
recommended.
Dispose of packaging materials at a proper location. Remove any pieces of cardboard,
wood or plastic packaging found in the fire chamber before operating the stove. Be careful
when removing the wooden bracing from inside the fire chamber, as it is fastened by nails.
Dispose of an unwanted stove properly, respecting local environmental regulations and
waste disposal requirements.
To ensure adequate combustion, the draft in the stove chimney flue should be 12±2
Pa. In case of draft greater than 15 Pa, the chimney flue must be fitted with a damper.
Only spare parts recommended by the manufacturer may be fitted to the stove. The
stove may not be modified.
IN CASE OF NON-OBSERVANCE OF THE INDICATIONS ABOVE-QUOTED, THE
MANUFACTURER DISCLAIMS ALL RESPONSIBILITIES FOR POSSIBLE DAMAGE.
