1.4 GENERAL GUIDELINES
Caution: the appliance must be connected to a system provided with a PE conductor (in compliance with the
specifications of 2006/95/EC, concerning low voltage equipment). Before installing the appliance check the efficiency
of the earth circuit of the power supply system.
Caution: the power supply line must have a section which is suitable for the power of the equipment. The cable section must in any
case be no less than 1.5 mm². The appliance requires powering with a voltage of 230V and 50 Hz. Voltage variations greater than
10% of the nominal value can cause irregular operation or damage the electrical device.
Position the appliance so that the electric power outlet in the room is easily accessible. Ensure that a suitable differential switch is
installed upstream from the equipment.
Your appliance has obtained the CE marking and has been made to run for 1 hour to check that it functions correctly.
The product must not be used by children, by persons with physical or mental impairments, by persons who are not familiar with the
instructions for use and maintenance of the product (the instructions are found in this booklet).
CAUTION: Before every use make sure that the burner is clean and positioned correctly in its seat, and check that the ash pan is
clean, check that the firebox door is closed.
CAUTION: the door must always remain shut tight when the stove is operating. It is strictly forbidden to open the door while the
appliance is in operation. While the appliance is in operation the smoke exhaust pipes and some parts of the appliance itself can
reach extremely high temperatures: do not touch them! Do not expose your body to hot air for long, do not overheat the room in which
the appliance is installed, as these actions could cause health problems. Do not expose plants or animals directly to the hot air flow
as this could have noxious effects on them. It is strictly prohibited to use any type of fuel (liquid, solid...) to light up the appliance:
lighting must occur automatically as intended and described in this installation, use and maintenance booklet; consequently, it is also
strictly forbidden to feed pellets (or any other material) into the brazier. Do not place non-heat resistant or inflammable or combustible
objects in the vicinity of the appliance: keep them at a suitable distance. Do not place wet clothing to dry on the appliance. When
using a clothes horse, keep at a suitable distance. It is strictly prohibited to disconnect the appliance from the electrical mains during
any of the appliance’s operating stages.
Warning: do not wet the appliance and do not touch the electrical parts with wet hands. Never vacuum hot ash: this
could damage the vacuum device. All the cleaning operations described in this manual must be carried out when the
appliance is cold.
Caution! Warning for Swiss users
Refer to the local cantonal regulations imposed by the Fire Department (Mandatory signalling and safety distances )
and the Note concerning installation of heaters issued by the Association of Cantonal Fire Agencies (VKF - AEAI).
CAUTION: it is mandatory to earth the appliance. If this instruction is not observed serious damage, which is not
covered by warranty, will result to the body of the appliance. Have an electrician check the earthing. There must be no
electric potential (Volt) between the earth of the generator and the actual earth of the plant.
1.5 TRANSPORTATION AND STORAGE
TRANSPORTATION AND HANDLING
The appliance body must always be in a vertical position when handled and exclusively by means of trolleys. Take special care to
protect the electric panel, the glass, and all the fragile parts from mechanical impact which could damage them and their correct

The appliance must be stored in a humid-free environment and sheltered from the weather; avoid placing the appliance directly on
the ground. The Company denies all responsibility for damage caused to wood floors or floors made from any other material.
