• Automatic switching from wood to pellet mode
With wood mode set, press the button
WOOD
again (the corresponding LED flashes) to activate
automatic switching from wood to pellet mode. When the wood is finished and the boiler water
temperature falls below the set limit, the burner starts automatically after 30 minutes.
For correct operation in wood mode, it is suggested to set
“SET
AIR WOOD”
function to the value 2 in the
Quick menu
.
Fireplace output and load burn time are regulated by the
amount of combustion air; to adjust the amount, adjust the
primary air of the ash pan (opening or closing the grille).
The stove has an automatic draught adjustment by means
of the CALDO CONTROL (also adjustable manually), which
operates the damper to reduce the primary combustion air
passage when the air reaches a temperature of around 70°C.
To obtain a heating power of 23.2 kW, it is necessary to burn
6-7 kg of wood per hour.
