08.5 OPTIMISING COMBUSTION AND DAMPER USE
This fireplace/boiler offers excellent performance. When using pellets, for optimum operation without overloading the burner respect the
following rules:
Step 1
: manually load a small amount of pellets via the control unit display command (see FIG. 1) for first
start-up. Do not exceed the recommended quantity and make sure the burn pot is secured by forcing it with
the special screw.
Step 2
: carry out lighting. At the end of automatic loading, in the electrical element lighting stage, the quantity
of pellets must never exceed the level indicated (vedi
F
ig
. 2
) in order to avoid abnormal ignition.
Step 3
: set the control unit to maximum power; adjust the comburent air and pellet value to 0%. The flame should
be as in
F
ig
. 3
. While burning, the pellets must always remain below the upper holes of the burn pot and the flame
must be clear.
Step 4
: when any unburnt elements are left in the firebox, run one or more automatic firebox cleaning cycles
using the relative function on the control unit display.
Step 5
: in case of incorrect combustion or lighting problems, clean the burn pot, following the procedure in
the quick reference notice.
Step 6
: every 20 days or so, it is compulsory to extract the top diffuser to clean it.
The combustion air
percentage (%) must not be set below -5% to avoid possible spontaneous combustion, dirtying the
boiler excessively and blackening the glass

Using the damper
The fume shutter allows the combustion to be correctly regulated according to the combustion temperature and the flue’s uptake (which
varies according to weather conditions). The position of the fume shutter is automatically regulated according to the temperature of
the fumes. It is however possible to select the most suitable position for the shutter in manual mode, via the control unit. If there is a
fault in the motor that regulates the shutter, it is possible to release the motor clutch pressing button (A) and block it using its lock (C).
Rotate the shutter manually to the open position (B). Release the clutch button (C) so that the fume shutter remains in the open position.
The user should become familiar with damper use in order to optimise fireplace operation
