1.1.  

SAFETY WARNINGS 

 

Installation, electrical connection, 

functional check and maintenance of this 

appliance must only be performed by 

qualified or authorised personnel.

 

 

Install the closed fireplace in compliance 

with the applicable regulations in force in 

the place, region or country. 

 

This appliance must not be used by anyone 

(including children) with limited physical, 

sensory or mental skills or with little 

experience and knowledge, unless they are 

supervised or have been instructed to use 

the device by the person in charge of its 

safety.  

 

Only use the fuel recommended by MCZ. 

The appliance must not be used as an 

incinerator. The use of liquid fuel is strictly 

forbidden. 

 

The instructions provided in this manual must 

always be observed to ensure the correct use of 

this closed fireplace and of any appliances 

connected to it as well as to avoid any accidents. 

 

The user (or anybody preparing to operate the 

closed fireplace) must read and fully understand 

the contents of this instruction manual before 

beginning any operation. 

 

The closed fireplace must only be used for its 

intended purpose. Any other use is considered 

incorrect and therefore dangerous. 

 

Assess the static conditions of the surface on 

which the weight of the closed fireplace will bear 

and provide suitable insulation if it is made of 

flammable material (e.g. wood, fitted carpet, 

plastic). 

 

Avoid installing the appliance in rooms containing 

type B gas appliances or hoods with or without 

an extractor fan, heat pumps, or collective 

ventilation ducts. 

 

Avoid having several operational flue ducts in the 

room or in the proximity of a stair well and make 

sure that there are no appliances in adjacent 

communicating rooms, the concurrent use of 

which causes a vacuum in one of the two rooms. 

 

The user is fully liable for any incorrect use of the 

product. MCZ bears no civil or criminal liability for 

incorrect use. 

 

Tampering of any nature or replacement of spare 

parts with non-original parts may endanger the 

operator. MCZ bears no civil or criminal liability 

for tampering or use of non-original parts.  

 

Parts of the surface of the closed fireplace can 

get very hot (door, handle, glass). Therefore, 

avoid touching these parts without wearing 

suitable protective clothing or using appropriate 

measures, such as heat protective gloves or 

"hands cool" type systems. 

 

Carefully explain this danger to elderly and 

disabled people and, in particular, to all children, 

keeping them away from the closed fireplace 

while it is in use. 

 

Incorrect installation or poor maintenance (not 

conforming to the instructions provided in this 

manual) may cause personal injury, harm to 

animals or damage to property. MCZ bears no 

civil or criminal liability for incorrect installation or 

poor maintenance.

 

1.2.  

OPERATIONAL WARNINGS 

 

Turn off the closed fireplace in the event of a 

failure or malfunctioning. 

 

Keep flammable material at least 150 cm away 

from the glass of the fireplace. 

 

If there is poor draught in the flue pipe (due to 

bad weather, poor installation conditions) light 

the flame strongly, keeping the door slightly 

open. When the door is closed always keep the 

damper completely open. Use dry wood in small 

pieces. If you continue to experience problems 

with the combustion call a qualified technician. 

 

Install the closed fireplace in rooms which are 

suitably protected against fire hazards and 

equipped with all utilities, including power 

supplies (air, water and electricity) and smoke 

outlets. 

 

Do not light the fire with flammable substances.

 

 

INFORMATION

 

In case of any problems please contact your 

retailer or MCZ's qualified, authorised personnel. 

If repairs are necessary, request original spare 

parts. 

 

Check and clean the smoke outlet pipe regularly 

in accordance with the provisions of the 

applicable regulations in the country of 

installation 

 

Keep this instruction manual in a safe place as it 

should accompany the closed fireplace along its 

entire life cycle. If the closed fireplace is sold or 

transferred to another user always ensure that 

the manual accompanies the product. 

 

If this manual is destroyed request a copy from 

your authorised retailer or from MCZ.
