SECONDARY AIR
The top part of the product provides emission of so-called secondary air
that produces post-combustion, increasing efficiency while reducing
polluting elements and helping to keep the glass clean. The same lever
used to adjust the primary air is used to proportionally dose the
secondary air in a calibrated manner, allowing the final user to enjoy
excellent combustion regulation.
5.3.3. FIRST LIGHTING
It is advisable to approach the first lighting with caution, using
good-quality, well-seasoned wood.
The combustion air entrance must be fully open.
Once combustion has started, normal-sized pieces of wood may be
added.
The flame must have as far as possible a smooth and laminar flow.
When reloading, the fire door should be opened slowly to avoid
blowbacks of smoke into the room.
Proceed as follows:
•
Place a small amount of balled paper in the firebox.
•
Cover the paper with a small quantity of twigs and a few
pieces of wood.
•
Fully open the combustion air regulator.
•
Light the paper and, if necessary, keep the door open for
several minutes until the combustion chamber and chimney
flue are heated.
•
When the twigs are burning, the door can be closed.
As the fire burns, add wood. Never overload the product with wood
(see technical specifications in the table).
As soon as the flames have died down and a bed of embers has
formed, load the insert normally.
Small loads of wood are preferable to large ones for
combustion.
We recommend that this fuel loading method be used even during
subsequent product use.
To obtain nominal power, place the load of wood indicated
in the technical specifications table in the combustion
chamber (
chapter 3). The insert autonomy is about one
hour. When the fire dies down, load the firebox again.
Caution !

Do not use volatile or flammable substances
(petrol, alcohol, etc.) for lighting the fire.
•
Do not use fuels which could release toxic
substances or pollutants.
•
Do not put the fire out by throwing water on it.

Check the external-internal air intakes and the

them to be cleaned.
•
During use, the metal parts and the glass reach
