5. OPERATION
5.1.
PRE-LIGHTING WARNINGS
Make sure you have read and completely understood the contents of
this instruction booklet.
Remove any components which might burn from the stove and door
(various instructions and adhesive labels).
Remove the stickers from the ceramic glass or the high temperature
could melt them and irreparably damage the glass. In this case, the
MCZ warranty does not cover the glass.
The stove can be installed in a corner or against a wall.
Avoid touching the stove the first time it is used since its
paint completes drying and hardens in this phase.
It is good practice to provide plenty of ventilation in the room
during the initial lighting, as the stove will give off a small
amount of smoke and smell of paint.
If necessary, touch up the paint with the aerosol spray in the
original colour (see "stove accessories”)
Do not stay near the stove, and as previously mentioned, ventilate the
room. The smoke and the smell of paint will vanish after about one
hour of operation. There are no health risks involved.
The stove will be subject to expansion and contraction
during the stages of lighting and cooling down, and
may therefore make slight creaking noises.
This phenomenon is absolutely normal, the structure
being made of sheet steel, and must not be considered
a fault.
It is extremely important to be sure not to take the
stove to full heat straight away, but to bring it
gradually up to temperature.
This avoids damages to seals and the steel structure.
Do
not
demand
full
heating
performance straight away!
5.2.
FUEL
FUEL: Wood
To get the best performance from your stove, it is of prime importance
to use
firewood
with suitable characteristics.
It is possible to use firewood such as
oak, beech, ash, robinia or
ilex, or manmade logs
from compressed wood without added resins.
These have a high calorific power and must be used with
caution to avoid overheating which could damage the stove.
