5-PRECAUTIONS BEFORE START-UP
GENERAL PRECAUTIONS
Remove all components that could burn from the firebox and glass (instructions, various adhesive labels and any polystyrene).
Check that the brazier is positioned correctly and rests properly on the base.
After a long period of inactivity, remove any pellets left in the hopper (
using a vacuum cleaner with a long pipe
), as they could have
absorbed moisture, thereby altering their original characteristics and no longer being suitable for combustion.
The first start-up may not be successful as the feed screw is empty and does not always manage to load the required
amount of pellets in the brazier in time for the fire to be regularly ignited.
If a flame does not ignite after a number of failed start-ups, even though the pellet supply is correct, make sure the brazier is set in place
correctly, which must be
interlocked in its seat and free from any ash deposits.
If no anomaly is found during this inspection, there
may be a problem with the product components or installation may not be correct.
REMOVE THE PELLETS FROM THE BRAZIER AND CONTACT AN AUTHORISED TECHNICIAN.
Avoid touching the product during the initial start-up, as the paint hardens during this phase. If you touch the paint,
you may expose the steel surface.
If necessary, touch up the paint with the spray can of the specific colour.
It is good practice to guarantee effective ventilation in the room during the initial start-up, as the product will emit
some smoke and smell of paint.
ATTENTION!
Please ensure the brazier is clear of ALL pellets and ash build up following any failed ignitions. Failure to clear out
the brazier prior to resetting may result in further failed ignitions or in certain conditions an explosive ignition.
Do not stand close to the product and air the room. The smoke and smell of paint will disappear after about an hour of operation, however,
remember they are not harmful in any case.
The product will be subject to expansion and contraction during the start-up and cooling phases, therefore light creaking noises may be
heard.
This is absolutely normal as the structure is made of laminated steel and must not be considered a defect.
It is extremely important to make sure the product is not immediately overheated and the temperature is increased gradually, initially
using low power.
