6.5. LOADING THE FUEL
For normal fuel loading, simply open the fire door via the bracket on
the side of the door, using the cold activation device provided, as
shown in figure 16.
The door will have a first stage of opening with a minimum inclination,
but by pulling further down the door will open completely to 90°. To
close the door, do the opposite.
During use, the metallic structure, the handles and the glass
become very hot. Use the thermal glove provided when
handling these parts.
During normal use, always keep the fire door completely
closed, since intermediate positions cause abnormal combustions
(forge effect), rapid consumption of wood and a drastic reduction in the
heating efficiency of the unit.
Open the door only to add fuel, and only for brief periods of
time.
The fireplace stove works best and provides the greatest yield when the
door is closed, because the hermetic combustion chamber and the
calibrated inlet of oxygen allow increased performance.
Upon purchasing, the door of the Vivo product, once
opened, tends to ajar. This effect occurs as the
springs of the door hinges have to normalize with
the heat. After the product has been operating for a
few days, when the door is completely opened, it
will maintain this position in a stable way.
