4. OPERATION
4.1. PRE-LIGHTING WARNINGS
Do not touch the stove 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 aerosol spray in the original
colour (see the section "Accessories for pellet stoves").
It is good practice to provide plenty of ventilation in
the room during the initial lighting, as the stove will
give off a small amount of smoke and smell of paint.
Do not stay near the stove, and as previously mentioned, ventilate the
room. The smoke and the smell of paint will vanish after about one
hour of operation. There are no health risks involved.
The stove will be subject to expansion and contraction during the
stages of lighting and cooling down, and may therefore make slight
creaking noises.
This phenomenon is absolutely normal, the structure being made of
sheet steel, and must not be considered a fault.
It is extremely important to be sure not to take the stove to full heat
straight away, but to bring it gradually up to temperature.
If in manual mode, use low heating powers (for example 1
a
-2
a
-3
a
).
During subsequent use, you will be able to make use of all available
heating power (e.g. 4
a
-5
a
), but remember not to keep the stove
running on full power for more than 60-90 minutes.
In this way you will avoid damage to the ceramic panels, the welds and
the steel structure.
At first lighting the stove is already in manual mode.
At first, it is advisable to use the only low and
medium heating levels (from first to third power
level).
Do not demand full heating
performance straight away!
Try to get familiar with commands given from the control panel or
remote control.
Try to memorize the messages that the stove provides on the display of
the remote control.
