4. OPERATION
4.1. PRE-LIGHTING WARNINGS
Do not touch the stove during the first lighting, as it
is during this phase that the paint sets. If you touch
the paint, you may expose the steel surface.
If necessary, touch up the paint with the aerosol spray in the original
colour (see the section "Accessories for pellet stoves").
It is recommended to provide plenty of ventilation in
the room during the initial lighting, as the stove will
give off a small amount of smoke or odour due to the
stabilisation of the paint.
Do not stay near the stove, and as previously mentioned, ventilate the
room. The smoke and the smell of paint will vanish after about one
hour of operation. There are no health risks involved.
The stove will be subject to expansion and contraction during the
stages of lighting and cooling down, and may therefore make slight
creaking noises.
This phenomenon is absolutely normal, the structure being made of
sheet steel, and must not be considered a fault.
It is extremely important to be sure not to take the stove to full heat
straight away, but to bring it gradually up to temperature.
If in manual mode, use low heating powers (for example 1
a -2 a -3 a ).
During subsequent use, you will be able to make use of all available
heating power (e.g. 4 a -5 a ).
In this way you will avoid damage to the ceramic panels, the welds and
the steel structure.
Do not demand maximum heating
performance immediately!
As with automobiles, a running-in period is
recommended, even if only for a short period of
time (4/5 hours).
Try to get familiar with the commands given from the control panel.
Try to memorize the messages that the stove provides on the display.
