4.1 Fuels authorized by the manufacturer. The appliance should not be used as an incinerator and the use of fuels
other than those authorized by the manufacturer are prohibited, including lighting liquids or gels. Only natural wood logs
are authorized as fuel and it is not advisable to use resinous woods.
4.2 Pilot fire lighting. For a reasonable period of time, approximately 24 hours, it must not exceed 50% of the Maximum
load allowed by the manufacturer. Before lighting the fire, ensure that nothing delivered with the equipment has stayed
inside (such as gloves, spray paint ...)
CAUTION: - The maximum load allowed by the manufacturer, the measurements of the logs and the
height of the reload must be respected.
- Do not touch or manipulate any part of the appliance when in operation without a protection
glove.
4.3. Combustion control. The appliance has mechanisms to regulate combustion.
4.3.1. Primary register. The primary register is used to control the air entering the combustion chamber through the
base of the fire, through the fire grate. The primary register should be used mainly for lighting and, if necessary, to aid
combustion. To locate the register control handle and to know how to use it see picture "C.3" on page 9 of the ANNEXED
document.
4.3.2. Secondary register. The secondary register is used to control the air entering the combustion chamber from the
top. The secondary register is used as combustion intensity adjustment. To locate the register control handle and to
know how to use it see picture "C.4" on page 9 of the ANNEXED document.
CAUTION: The positions of the registers shown in the technical specifications table are trial positions;
in any case, these positions must be adapted according to the draught of the duct and fuel
quality.
4.4 Fire lighting. To light the fire, use suitable materials for this purpose, such as heat pads, paper, dry and thin
branches. DO NOT USE GASOLINE, SOLVENTS OR ALCOHOL. To see the correct position see picture "C.5" on page
9 of the ANNEXED document, then light the fire using a suitable material. Once the fire is lit, adjust the primary register
to avoid excessive combustion and control the intensity of the fire through the secondary register.
IMPORTANT: -The interior vermiculite parts SHOULD NOT RECEIVE IMPACTS when refueling is
performed.
If any of these parts crack, but is properly set in its place, THE PROPER OPERATION OF
THE APPLIANCE SHALL NOT BE ALTERED AND THERE IS NO POTENTIAL RISK. The
equipment can be used normally. These cracks do not entail any manufacturing defect so
they do not fall under guarantee.
4.5 Loading and reloading of fuel. Do not exceed the maximum allowed load or reload. (See Table of Technical
specifications).
4.6 Door opening. The door must be opened only for reloading. To open it, follow the steps described in pictures "C.1"
and "C.2" on page 9 of the ANNEXED document.
4.7 Operation in adverse weather conditions. It is possible for the device to malfunction due to sudden or unexpected
weather changes, causing: low pressure, ebb currents of air into the smoke duct. When these phenomena are observed
it is advisable to close the combustion register and turn the equipment off.
4.8 Fire Prevention. You must not place any flammable element outside the safety distance from the fireplace described
in the table in section 1.1 Technical specifications. You shall also take special precautions if there are children and
elderly people present. In case of fire, push away all the people around it, close the registers as much as possible and
notify the Firefighting service.
