THE BOILER MUST NEVER BE MADE TO OPERATE
WITHOUT WATER IN THE SYSTEM.
IT CAN BE DAMAGED IF IT IS IGNITED WITH NO WA-
TER IN THE SYSTEM.
MUST BE MADE WITH A PRESSURE OF ABOUT 1.5 BAR.
• The boiler is designed to heat water by means of automatic
combustion of pellets in the hearth.
• The appliance is not designed to be used by people, including
children, with reduced physical, sensorial or mental abilities.
Children must be supervised to ensure they do not play with
the appliance.
• The main risks that may derive from using the boiler pertain
to non-compliance with installation instructions, direct contact
with live electrical parts (internal), contact with the fi re or hot
parts (glass, pipes, hot air output), when extraneous substances
or non-recommended fuel are introduced, or due to incorrect
maintenance or by repeatedly pressing the ignition button wi-
thout having emptied the crucible.
• Should components fail, the boiler is equipped with safety
devices to guarantee its automatic shutdown.
These are activated without any intervention required.
• In order to function correctly, the boiler must be installed in
accordance with the instructions given herein and the door
must not be opened during operation: combustion is fully
automatic and requires no intervention.
• Only use certifi ed, high quality, 6/8 mm diameter wooden
pellets for fuel.
• Under no circumstances should any foreign substances be put
into the hearth or the hopper.
• Do not use fl ammable products to clean the smoke channel
(the fl ue section connecting the boiler-stove smoke outlet to the
chimney fl ue).
• Do not clean when hot.
• Hearth and hopper components must only be cleaned with a
vacuum cleaner.
• The boiler must not function if the door is open, if the glass is
broken or if the pellet-loading port is open.
