OPERATION 

5.1.  

PRE-LIGHTING WARNINGS 

 

Do  not  touch  the  fireplace  stove  when  it  is  lit  for  the first 

time.  During  this  phase,  the  paint  finishes  drying  and 

hardens. If you touch the paint, you may expose the steel 

surface.

 

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  “Fireplace  stove  accessories  and 

inserts")

 

 

Do  not  stay  near  the  fireplace  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 fireplace 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 very important not to bring the stove up to full 

heat  immediately.  Bring  it  up  to  temperature 

gradually. 

This  avoids  damages  to  welds  and  the  steel 

structure. 

Do 

not 

demand 

full 

heating 

performance straight away!

 

 

5.2.  

OPERATING TEST 

After  having  created  all  the  electrical  connections  foreseen, we advise 

testing the HYDROTHERM fireplace stove together with the installer.
