12-FIRST START-UP
Technical Dept. - All rights reserved - Reproduction is prohibited
If the flame fails to ignite, despite the regular flow of pellets, check that the brazier is seated correctly:
it must rest snugly against the
interlocking slot and be clean of any ash scaling.
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.
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.
It is good practice to ensure effective ventilation in the room during the initial start-up, as the boiler will emit some
smoke and smell of paint.
Do not stand close to the stove and, as mentioned, air the room. The smoke and smell of paint will disappear after about an hour of
operation, however, they are not harmful in any case.
The boiler will be subject to expansion and contraction during the lighting and cooling down stages, and may therefore make slight
creaking noises.
This is absolutely normal as the structure is made of laminated steel and must not be considered a defect.
DO NOT EXPECT HEATING EFFICIENCY IMMEDIATELY!!!
THE PRODUCT NEEDS SOME RUNNING-IN TIME.
It is extremely important to make sure the boiler does not reach high temperatures straight away, but to increase the temperature
gradually using low power at first.
This will prevent damaging the ceramic or serpentine stone tiles, the welds and the steel structure.
Do not touch the boiler during the first lighting, as it is during this phase that the paint sets. 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. (See "Pellet stove accessories")
