3.3. Lighting
Use of the appliance in warm weather
(warm days, early hours of the afternoon
on sunny days) may lead to lighting and
updraught problems.
Certain weather conditions, such as fog,
ice, humidity entering the flue, etc., may
hinder sufficient updraught in the flue and
lead to suffocation.
Proceed as follows in order to light the
appliance satisfactorily:
•
Open the firebox door(s) and open
all the firebox air-intake inlets to the full.
•
Open the direct draught rod for
about 15 minutes until the chimney flue
warms up.
•
Place paper or a firelighter and
some wood chips in the firebox.
•
Light the paper or firelighter.
•
Leave the door slightly ajar, the
width of two or three fingers, for about 15
minutes.
•
The first time the appliance is lit,
the fire should be gentle to allow the parts
of the appliance to dilate and dry.
Important: The first time it is lit up, the
appliance may give off smoke and strange
smells. This is not a cause for concern.
Open an outdoor window to ventilate the
room during the first few hours of
operation.
If you notice water around the
appliance, this is produced by the
condensation of the moisture in the wood
on lighting the fire. This condensation will
no longer appear when the appliance has
been lit three or four times and has
adapted to its flue. If it does not disappear,
then check the flue draught (length and
diameter of the flue, flue insulation,
airtightness) and the humidity of the wood
used.
If the condensation comes into contact
with the enamel, wipe it off and dry with a
cloth straight away to prevent any possible
loss of shine.
3.4. Loading fuel
In order to load firewood, open the
firebox door gently, preventing the sudden
entry of air to the firebox so that smoke
does not enter the room that the appliance
is installed in. Firewood can also be loaded
through the ring holes on cast-iron top
surfaces.
Perform this operation with the glove to
prevent burns to the hands.
The maximum load height is 2 logs with
diameters of approx. 10 cm.
The minimum interval between loads
for nominal heat output is 60 minutes.
Always load with the nominal amount
(see table in section 1.1).
For minimum burning (e.g. at night), use
thicker logs.
When the firebox is loaded, close the
door.
3.5. Operation
The appliance should be operated with
the door(s) closed and the direct draught
rod closed.
For safety reasons, never close all the
appliance’s combustion -air intakes.
Primary-air intake
By opening this inlet, air enters the
firebox via the firebox grille.
Secondary-air intake
By opening this inlet, air enters the
firebox via the top of the firebox door.
