4. OPERATION
4.1. WARNINGS PRIOR TO START-UP
Avoid touching the stove during the initial start-up as
the paint hardens during this time. If you touch the
paint, the steel surface may be exposed.
If necessary, touch up the paint with the spray can of the dedicated
colour. (see "Pellet stove accessories”)
It is good practice to guarantee efficient ventilation
in the room during the initial start-up as the stove
will release some smoke and some paint smells.
Do not stand close to the stove and, as mentioned, air the room. The
smoke and paint smell will disappear after about an hour of operation
but remember that these are not, in any case, harmful.
The stove will undergo expansion and contraction during the start-
up and cooling phases, so it may squeak slightly.
This is completely normal given that the structure is made from
laminated steel. It should therefore not be considered a defect.
It is extremely important to ensure that you raise the temperature of
the stove gradually rather than overheating it straight away.
Use low heating powers (if in "Manual" mode) (e.g.: 1
a -2 a -3 a ). When
you next start up the stove you can use the full heat power available
(e.g.: 4 a -5 a ).
This will prevent any damage to the ceramic tiles, welding and steel
structure.
When the stove is lit for the first time it will already
be in "manual" mode. We recommend that you use
only mid/ low heating power (such as the first to
third power levels) for the initial period
Do not try to achieve the maximum
heating efficiency immediately!
Try to familiarise yourself with the controls shown on the panel or
remote control.
Try to visually memorise the messages that the stove shows you via
the display on the remote control.
