3. FIRST USE

A qualified Tectro service technician must fire up the stove for the first time. The
first time the stove is fired up, it must be adjusted to ensure the correct air/fuel
ratio at each of the five combustion levels. The correct ratio strongly depends on
the type of flue duct fitted and can only be set after the stove has been installed.
An incorrect air/fuel ratio can seriously damage the stove. The fuel consumption
will also increase.
G
Never change the service parameters in the service menu. This may
seriously damage the stove and invalidate the warranty. The stove may
only be set up by a Tectro-approved service technician.
3.1 ACTIONS BEFORE AND DURING INITIAL START-UP
In the case of new build or refurbishment: allow the building to dry
G
out thoroughly before using the stove for the first time. It is well
understood that walls, ceilings and/or floors take a long time to dry
completely. Soot, ash particles etc. can easily stick to walls that have not
fully dried.
1. Check whether the stove has been installed according to the installation
manual.
2. Remove all items such as the manual, stove tools etc. from in and around the
stove before putting it into operation.
3. Fill the pellet hopper with pellets. See section 5 of this manual, "Filling the
pellet hopper with pellets", for details about which pellets to use and how
to fill the hopper.
4. Put the plug into an earthed mains socket and turn the power switch on.
This is located at the rear of the stove.
Check section 9 "Electrical connection" in the installation manual before
connecting the appliance to the mains.
5. Read section 4 "Normal use of the stove" for more information about how
to use the remote control (if supplied) and the start-up procedure.
6. Make sure the room is adequately ventilated. The stove is made from high
quality steel with a protective coating. During the first few stoking sessions,
the coating will continue to harden and the steel will settle. This process
takes time. During the initial use, it is normal for there to be an unpleasant
smell and smoke coming from the stove's coat of paint.
7. Never operate the appliance while the stove door is open. Always keep the
door closed while the stove is in use and make sure the latch is properly fas-
tened.
8. Light the stove and select combustion level 1.
