LIGHTING

IMPORTANT: The first time that the appliance is lit, there will be an odour given off (due to the drying of the
adhesives of the junction chord), which disappears after a short use. It must be ensured, in any case, a good
ventilation of the environment. Upon the first ignition we suggest loading a reduced quantity of fuel and slightly
increasing the calorific value of the equipment.
To perform a correct first lighting of the products treated with paints for high temperature, it is necessary to
know the following information:
• the construction materials of the involved products are not homogeneous, as matter of fact there are
simultaneously parts in cast iron, steel, refractory material and majolica;
• the temperature to which the body of the product is subject is not homogeneous: from area to area, variable
temperatures within the range of 300°C - 500 °C are detected;
• during its life, the product is subject to alternated lighting and extinguishing cycles in the same day, as well as to
cycles of intense use or of absolute standstill when season changes;
• the new appliance, before being considered seasoned has to be subject to many start cycles to allow all
materials and paints to complete the various elastic stresses;
• in detail, initially it is possible to remark the emission of smells typical of metals subject to great thermal stress,
as well as of wet paint. This paint, although during the manufacture it is backed at 250 °C for some hours, must
exceed many times and for a given period of time the temperature of 350 °C before becoming completely
embedded in the metallic surfaces.
Therefore, it is extremely relevant to take these easy steps during the lighting:
1) Make sure that a strong air change is assured in the room where the appliance is installed.
2) During the first starts, do not load excessively the combustion chamber (about half the quantity indicated in the
instructions manual) and keep the product continuously ON for at least 6-10 hours with the registers less open
than the value indicated in the instructions manual.
3) Repeat this operation for at least 4-5 or more times, according to your possibilities.
4) Then load more and more fuel (following in any case the provisions contained in the installation booklet
concerning maximum load) and, if possible, keep the lighting periods long avoiding, at least in this initial phase,
short ON/OFF cycles.
5) During the first starts, no object should be leaned on the appliance and in detail on enamelled surfaces.
Enamelled surfaces must not be touched during heating.
6) Once the «break-in» has been completed, it is possible to use the product as the motor of a car, avoiding abrupt
heating with excessive loads.
To light the fire, it is suggested using small wood pieces together with paper or other traded lighting means. It is
FORBIDDEN to use any liquid substance as for ex. alcohol, gasoline, oil and similar.
The openings for air (primary and secondary) must be opened together just a little (you must open the eventual
butterfly valve placed on the pipe of smokes exhaust). When the wood starts burning, adjust the air for combustion
according to the instructions on paragraph 10.
Never overload the stove (compare the technical table - max. quantity of loadable fuel).
Too much fuel and too much air for the combustion may cause overheating and then damage the stove.
The warranty does not cover the damages due to overheating of the equipment.
