• The physical and chemical properties of the pellets (namely, calibre, friction, density and
chemical composition) may vary within specific tolerance ranges and across manufacturers.
Please note that this may cause changes to the feeding process and, consequently, the need
for different doses (more or less pellet quantity).
• The unit allows for a ± 25% adjustment to the pellet dosage at start-up and at power levels.
• The CE certification tests that were run used wood pellets l with a heating capacity of 5.4
kWh/kg.

4. Installing ducts and ume extraction systems
• The exhaust pipe must have been designed for and dedicated to this purpose, in compliance with
local requirements and any applicable regulations.
• Important! An inspection-T with an airtight lid must be attached to the exit of the unit’s exhaust
pipe to allow for the regular inspection of the system or discharge of heavy dust and condensates.
• As shown, the exhaust duct should be assembled in a way that allows for the cleaning and
servicing using the insert of the inspection points.
• Under normal operating conditions, the combustion gas exhaustion must create a draught of 12
Pa, one meter above the fume exit.
• The unit must not share the chimney with other equipment.
• The pipes installed outside the household must have double stainless-steel insulation and an
internal diameter of 80 mm.
• The fume exhaust pipe may generate condensation, so we recommend that the appropriate
systems for collecting condensates are installed.
4.1. Installing without a chimney
• The installation of this unit without a chimney must be made by bringing the fume exhaust pipe
directly out and over the top of the roof at approximately 0.5 m higher.
• Double-walled stainless steel insulated pipes must be used and properly attached to avoid
condensation.
• A T-connection must be installed at the base of the pipe to allow for periodic inspections and
annual maintenance, as illustrated in the following figure.
Figure 3 - Side view o the installation without chimney, with example o the inspection point

7
• The following figure shows some examples which illustrate the basic requirements for installing
the unit’s chimney.
Figure 4 - Examples o standard installations
FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THESE REQUIREMENTS MAY PREVENT THE CORRECT OPERATION OF THE
UNIT (PLEASE OBSERVE ALL OF THE INSTRUCTIONS PRESENTED ON THE DIAGRAMS).
• The free-standing fire operates with the combustion chamber in draught. Therefore, it is
absolutely necessary to have installed a fume exhaustion duct that can adequately extract the
combustion gases.
• Fume duct material: The tubing to be used for this installation must consist of 0.5 mm thick rigid
stainless steel, with fitting bindings attaching the different sections and accessories.
• Insulation: The fume ducts must be double-walled and insulated to make sure that fumes do not
cool down going outwards, which would cause an inadequate circulation and condensation that
might damage the unit.
• Output T connection: Always attach a "T-tube" with damper to the output of the unit.
• Swing type check valve: Always install this system to avoid fumes backflow.
• Draught in the chimney: The figure below shows three standard diagrams, specifying the
adequate lengths and diameters. Any other type of installation must guarantee a draught of 12
Pa (0.12 mbars) measured when hot and at the maximum power.
• Ventilation: For the optimal operation of the unit, the assembly site must have a air inlet installed
with a minimum cross section of 100cm2, preferably at the back of the unit. The unit is equipped
with a circular pipe (Ø 50 mm) that can connect to the exterior of the house.

8
THIS SECTION OF PIPE CAN BE A MAXIMUM OF 60 CM LONG WITH A DIAMETER OF 50 MM
(Ø).
• If you use a tube to allow for the combustion airflow intake from the outside, this should not have
more than 60 cm long horizontally, and an internal diameter equal or greater than the unit's tube
diameter. The connection path must be straight (without bends).
• If the house is equipped with an air exhaust system (e.g. kitchen extractor fan), a top ventilation
section must be installed, suitable to accommodate the different air exhaust systems existing in
the household.
• Installing the unit in locations near kitchen exhaust fans or fume extractors may prevent the
correct operation of the unit and, in certain situations, may cause the inversion of the chimney
draught flow which will expel the fumes into the room where the unit is installed.
4.2. Installing with a chimney
• As shown in the following figure, the installation of the unit brings the exhaustion tube directly
onto the chimney. If the chimney is too large, an 80 mm-wide pipe should be installed at the fume
outlet.
Figure 5 - Side view o the chimney installation, with example o the inspection point
• A T connection must be attached to the base of the tubing, to allow for periodic inspections and
annual maintenance.
Inspection

9
• We recommend that you do not use the unit in adverse weather conditions that may seriously
impact the draught (particularly with very strong winds).
• Before lightening the fore, you must make sure that the chimney tubing is free from obstructions.
Otherwise, the fume can be blown into the room where the unit is installed.

avoid this, this unit is equipped with a stainless-steel container to be filled with water that will
evaporate to help humidify the air in the room, as shown in the following pictures.
• The humidifier is located inside the unit, as other components, and it should be removed and
positioned correctly in the appropriate place at the top of the unit.
Figure 10 - Humidi ier
11. Activation
• Before operating the unit, please make sure that the pellet feeder channel is filled with pellets.
To do this, with the unit turned off enable the pellet feeder function (section 19). The unit will be
ready for operation when the first pellets start to fall into the burner. Disable the function.
• To start operating the unit you need to press the start/stop key for 3 seconds. The display will
show the message “Check Up” during the lighting phase until completion.
• The pellets travel through the pellet feeder channel onto the burning basket (combustion
chamber), where they will be ignited by means of a heat resistor. This process may take between
5 to 10 minutes, depending on whether the worm screw has been previously loaded with pellets
or not. Upon completion of the ignition phase, “Normal” should appear on the display.
• The heating power can be adjusted at any time by accessing the Combustion Management Menu
from the "Personalisation Menu".
• You can choose between five pre-set power levels. The selected power is indicated on the display.
The initial power setting at each start-up will correspond to the power level set during the last
cycle operation.
• The unit will be hot during operation, so you should be careful when touching the glass, the door
lock and the heat exchanger damper.

THE FREE-STANDING UNIT MUST ALWAYS BE DEACTIVATED IN THE SAME WAY IT WAS
ACTIVATED. DURING THE ACTIVATION PROCESS THE EQUIPMENT MUST NEVER BE UNPLUGGED.
12. Disabling
• The turn off sequence is performed by pressing the start/stop key for 3 seconds.
• Until completion of this phase the display will show the message “disabling”. The extractor will
remain active until a fume temperature of 40°C is reached, to ensure that all the fuel is completely
burned.
13. Recommendations on using this unit
• Ensure that the unit is properly connected to the power mains using the 230V AC power cable.
Figure 11 - Electric power plug
• Check if the pellet reservoir is supplied with pellets. Inside the pellet reservoir is a safety grid to
prevent users from reaching the worm screw.
• Always check if the burner is not obstructed before igniting the unit.
• THE UNIT'S COMBUSTION CHAMBER IS MADE OF IRON PLATE COATED WITH HIGH
TEMPERATURE RESISTANT PAINT, WHICH RELEASES FUMES DURING THE FIRST BURNING
SESSIONS DUE TO THE CURING OF THE PAINT.
• Please make sure the room where the unit is installed has adequate air circulation; otherwise, the
unit will not work properly. For this reason, you should consider if there are other air-consuming
heating appliances in the room (e.g., gas units, braziers, extractors, etc.) as these should not be
used simultaneously with this unit.
• You should not turn the stove off and on intermittently, as this could damage the unit's electronic
and electric components.

15
• Even though the unit is grounded, do not touch the unit with wet hands; the improper handling
of the unit may cause an electric discharge. If you notice any electrical problems, please contact
your person who performed the installation.
• The unit should only be disconnected after its full stop. Make sure that the display shows “Off”
before disconnecting the unit. If necessary, unplug the power cable from the power socket.
• Never open the door when the unit is still connected to the power socket or during its operation.
If you need to open the door, disconnect the unit and allow it to cool down completely.
• The free-standing units have a probe to measure the room temperature. This probe is attached
to the grid at the rear panel (as shown in the figure below). For a good reading of the room
temperature, avoid the contact between the end of the probe and the unit chassis. If you want,
you may secure the probe to the wall near the unit.
Figure 12 - Room temperature probe
• Before starting up the unit, check to determine if the deflector plate is correctly positioned.

14. Cleaning and maintenance
• In order to achieve an optimal operating performance, it's essential to carry out a set of cleaning
and maintenance procedures. To do so in a convenient way, use y a household vacuum cleaner.
• The cleaning operation should be carried out after each burn of approximately 30 kg. To prevent
any accidents, the cleaning and maintenance operations must be performed with the
disconnected from the power socket and after complete cool down.
• The deterioration of parts due to the lack of cleaning will void the warranty provided by Fogo
Montanha.
• For cleaning and maintenance purposes, we recommend that you use
o Household vacuum cleaner;
o A 20-25 mm wide and 80 cm long twisted-wire;
o teel brush.
14.1. Heat exchanger
• This operation should be performed after the unit has completely cooled down to prevent
accidents.
Figure 14 - Exchanger cleaning
• Pull the cleaning damper from inside the unit, gently pulling it horizontally. We recommend that
you pull the damper out with the door closed, so that the ashes in the exchanger fall inside the
unit. This procedure should be done after the unit has been used.
14.2. Burning basket and ash pan grate
• Open the door to access the interior of the unit. Next, you should remove the grate but, before
doing that, be sure you tilt it while still inside the unit to make sure that the accumulated ash falls
onto the ash drawer.
