4. OPERATION
4.1. WARNINGS PRIOR TO FIRST LIGHTING
Avoid touching the stove during initial lighting, since
the paint hardens during this phase. If you touch the
paint, the steel surface underneath may be
uncovered.
If necessary, touch up the paint with the spray paint of the appropriate
colour. (see "Accessories for pellet stoves")
It is good practice to provide plenty of ventilation of
the room during the initial lighting, as the stove will
give off a small amount of fumes and smell of paint.
Do not stay near the stove and as previously stated ventilate the room.
The smoke and the smell of paint will go away after the first hour of
operation. They are not harmful to your health.
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 is absolutely normal, the structure being made of sheet steel, and
must not be considered a fault.
It is very important not to heat the stove up all at once, but to bring it
up to temperature gradually.
If in 'Manual' mode, use the lower heating levels (1st, 2nd, 3rd). On
subsequent lightings, you will be able to enjoy the full heating power
available (including 4th and 5th levels), but remember not to keep the
stove running on full power for more than 60-90 minutes.
In this way you will avoid damage to the ceramic panels, the welds and
the steel structure.
The first time the stove is lit, leave it in "Manual" mode and
use only moderate power settings, such as “on1”-”on2”-”on3”.
Do not demand full heating
performance straight away!
Try to get familiar with the commands given form the control panel or
remote control.
Try to memorize the messages that the stove sends you by means of
the display panel.
