After lighting the fire, leave the combustion air regulator open in the position shown:
FUEL
Wood
IMPORTANT:
• do not add further wood between one complete load and the next;
• do not suffocate the fire by closing the air intakes;
• regular cleaning by a chimney sweep reduces fine particle emissions.

NORMAL OPERATION

IMPORTANT: For safety reasons the door of the hearth can be opened only for the loading of the fuel. The hearth
door must always remain closed during operation or rest.
After having positioned the registers correctly, insert the indicated hourly wood load avoiding overloads that cause anomalous stresses
and deformations. You should always use the product with the door closed in order to avoid damages due to overheating
(forge effect). The inobservance of this rule makes the warranty expire.
For safety reasons the door of the appliances with constructive system 1, must be opened only for the loading of the fuel or for
removing the ashes, while during the operation and the rest, the door of the hearth must remain closed.
The appliances with constructive system 2 must be connected to their own flue. The operating with open door is allowed under
supervision.
With the controls positioned on the front of the appliance it is possible to adjust the heat emission of the hearth. They have to be
opened according to the calorific need. The best combustion (with minimum emissions) is reached when, by loading the wood, most
part of the air for combustion flows through the secondary air register.
Never overload the appliance (see the hourly wood load in the table here below). Too much fuel and too much air for the combustion
may cause overheating and then damage the stove. You should always use the appliance with the door closed in order to avoid
damages due to overheating (forge effect). The inobservance of this rule makes the warranty expire.
The adjustment of the registers necessary to reach the rated calorific yield with a depression at the stack of 17-20 Pa 1,7-2 mm of
column of water) is the following one: see chapter TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION. The appliance works as an intermittent operating
appliance.
In the event that the water temperature exceeds the tripping temperature of the safety devices, immediately
suspend the feeding of wood, and make sure that the water temperature and the flame decrease, eliminating the
causes of the overheating (if necessary by closing the air register).
If the water system is connected in the appliance, the hot water tap can be opened to speed up the cooling of the
appliance.
Besides the adjustment of the air for the combustion, the intensity of the combustion and consequently the thermal performance of
the device is influenced by the stack. A good draught of the stack requires a stricter adjustment of air for combustion, while a poor
draught requires a more precise adjustment of air for combustion.
To verify the good combustion, check whether the smoke coming out from the stack is transparent.
If it is white, it means that the device is not properly adjusted or the wood is too wet; if instead the smoke is gray or black, it signals
that the combustion is not complete (it is necessary a greater quantity of secondary air).
WARNING: When fuel is added onto the embers in the absence of a flame, a considerable amount of fumes may develop.
Should this happen, an explosive mixture of gas and air may form, and in extreme cases an explosion may occur. For safety
reasons it is advisable to perform a new lighting procedure with the use of small strips.

USE OF THE OVEN (If present)

Thanks to the air flow for the combustion, the temperature of the oven may become remarkably affected. A sufficient flue of the
chimney and of the channels, well cleaned for the flow of burning smokes around the oven are fundamental for a good cooking result.
The oven pan may be located on different plans. Thick cakes and big roasts must be introduced in the lowest level. Flat cakes and
biscuits must reach the medium level. The upper level may be used to heat or grill.
The oven pan and the chrome plated oven grille may be located on different plans (see chapter Technical Description - ACCESSORIES).
When cooking food with high humidity, cakes with fruit or fruit itself, water of condensation will be produced. During the cooking
process some water vapour in the form of drops of condensed water can deposit onto the top and the side of the door. It is a physical
phenomenon.
By opening the door briefly and carefully (1 or 2 times, or even often in case of longer cooking times) you can let out the steam from
the cooking compartment and reduce condensation significantly.

ELECTRICAL POWER SUPPLY FAILURE

In the event of an unexpected electrical power supply failure during normal system operation, it will be necessary to carry out these
simple manoeuvres to prevent the water in the boiler starting to boil as a consequence of the lack of pump operation.
1. Raise the moveable furnace grill (if present ) to the highest level in order to reduce the exchange surface exposed to the heat of
the flame.
