Check section 9 "Electrical connection" in the installation manual before
connecting the appliance to the mains.

Read section 4 "Normal use of the stove" for more information about how
to use the remote control (if supplied) and the start-up procedure.
6.
Make sure the room is adequately ventilated. The stove is made from high
quality steel with a protective coating. During the first few stoking sessions,
the coating will continue to harden and the steel will settle. This process
takes time. During the initial use, it is normal for there to be an unpleasant
smell and smoke coming from the stove's coat of paint.
7.
Never operate the appliance while the stove door is open. Always keep the
door closed while the stove is in use and make sure the latch is properly fas-
tened.
8.
Light the stove and select combustion level 1.
To prevent permanent damage to the stove, it should be 'run in'
gradually and on a low flame. Keep the flame low for the first four or
five hours, after which the heating output can gradually be increased.
Allow the stove to run constantly for at least three to four hours.
9.
Check that no combustion fumes are escaping into the room. If this is the
case, switch the stove off immediately and repair the leak.
10.
Check that the room blower is running by feeling whether any air is coming
out of the air grille on the front of the stove. This blower only starts when
the stove is hot enough (after approx. 15-20 minutes after the stove has
been lit). If the room blower does not start running, turn off the stove to
prevent it being damaged. Fix the problem before lighting the stove again.
This stove is fitted with a blower that circulates air in the room. When
the blower is running, air is sent along the hot surfaces inside the stove,
heated up and blown back into the room as warm air. Never allow the
stove to burn if the room blower is not running.
11.
Make sure the stove has the correct air/fuel ratio at each of the five combus-
tion levels by checking the flame pattern at each one. See figure 1. Adjust
the air/fuel ratio if necessary. Only a Qlima service technician may set the air/
fuel ration.
12.
Check the flue draught with a pressure gauge. Set the flue choke valve if
installed.
After adjusting the flue choke valve, the position of the valve may only
be changed in the event of an emergency such as a chimney fire.
13.
Check that flue gas temperature remains below 220ºC at each of the five
combustion levels. If the flue gas temperature at any of the five combustion
