by the manufacturer. Before lighting the fire, ensure that nothing delivered with the equipment has stayed inside (such as gloves,
spray paint ...)
4.3. Combustion control. The appliance has mechanisms to regulate combustion.
4.3.1. Primary register. The primary register is used to control the air intake which comes into the combustion chamber to the base
of the fire through the vermiculite at the back. The primary damper should be used mainly for ignition and, if necessary, as a help
for the combustion. To locate the control handle of the register and its use, see picture ‘D.7’ from the ANNEX document.
4.3.2. Secondary register. The secondary register is used to control the air entering the combustion chamber from the top. The
secondary register is used as combustion intensity adjustment. To locate the register control handle and to know how to use it see
picture "D.8” of the ANNEXED document.
4.4 Fire lighting. To light the fire, use suitable materials for this purpose, such as heat pads, paper, dry and thin branches. DO NOT
USE GASOLINE, SOLVENTS OR ALCOHOL . To see the correct position, see picture "D.4" of the ANNEXED document, then light
the fire using a suitable material. Once the fire is lit keep the door and the registers open for a reasonable time to prevent condensation
on the door. When the apparatus is hot enough close the door, adjust the primary register to avoid excessive combustion and control
the intensity of fire by the child record.
4.5 Loading and reloading of fuel. Do not exceed the maximum allowed load or reload. (See Table of Technical specifications).
4.6 Door opening. The door must be opened only for reloading. To open it, follow the steps described in picture "D.1" of the
