efficiently with the handle set to secondary air. You can
balance the primary and secondary air to have more heat, to
cook.

First fire.
The first hours of operation, you must heat it gradually. In order
to allow an appropriate cooking of the paint and in order to
facilitate its adhesion with metal, do not heat the appliance with
a strong fire. It will also avoid thermal shock which could lift up
the paint or make it whiten.
Make sure that the room is ventilated enough in order to
eliminate the odours and the smoke coming from the paint
during the first hours of utilization. It is normal that a light
smoke is released from the paint during the first hours of use.
Even if this nuisance is temporary, open the windows and the
doors in order to ensure a good ventilation. This special paint is
conceived to tolerate temperatures until 1200°F (650°C).
