11-PRECAUTIONS BEFORE START-UP
WARNINGS BEFORE IGNITION
GENERAL WARNINGS
Removeallpartsthatmayburnfromthebrazierandtheglass(manual,variousadhesivelabelsoranypolystyrene).
Check that the brazier is positioned correctly and rests properly on the base.
The rst start-up may not be successful as the feed screw is empty and does not always manage to load the brazier
with the required amount of pellets in time to light the ame.
CLEAR THE FAILED IGNITION ALARM FROM THE STOVE PANEL OR APP.
REMOVE THE PELLETS LEFT IN THE BRAZIER AND REPEAT IGNITION. (SEE “SAFETY DEVICES/ALARMS” PARAGRAPH)
If,afterrepeatedattempts,theamefailstoignite,despitearegularowofpellets,checkthe correctpositioning ofthebrazier,which
mustrestsnuglyagainsttheslots.Ifnoanomalyisfoundduringthisinspection,theremaybeaproblemwiththeproductcomponents
orinstallationmaynotbecorrect.
REMOVE THE PELLETS FROM THE BRAZIER AND CONTACT AN AUTHORISED TECHNICIAN.
Do not touch the stove during the rst start-up, as it is during this phase that the paint sets. If you touch the paint,
you may expose the steel surface.
It is good practice to ensure eective ventilation in the room during the initial start-up, as the stove will emit some
smoke and smell of paint.
Ifnecessary,touchupthepaintwiththespraycanofthespeciccolour.
Donotstandclosetothestoveand,asmentioned,airouttheroom.Thesmokeandsmellofpaintwilldisappearafteraboutanhourof
operation,however,theyarenotharmfulinanycase.
The product will be subject to expansion and contraction during the start-up and cooling stages, therefore slight
creaking noises may be heard. This is absolutely normal and must not be considered a defect as the structure is made
of laminated steel.
Uponrst ignition, forthe rst pellethopper, it isrecommendedto startthe stoveatmaximum powersothat thestructureandthe
smellofthepaintsettlemorequickly.
Itisrecommendedtoinstalltheceramicorserpentinestonecladdingaftertherstsuccessfulignition.
DO NOT EXPECT HEATING EFFICIENCY IMMEDIATELY!!!

Attention!
The App is already available in English on the “Handheld remote control” accessory as the language used on the
telephone is set by default. If the App is downloaded onto a personal smartphone, it similarly adopts the language
already in use on the phone. In either case, it is possible to open the “LANGUAGE” screen in the app and select the
desired language.

Attention! If the user erroneously presses the button for more than 10 seconds with the stove o, this will
automatically place the stove in download mode to update the rmware (operation restricted to an authorised
technician). This way, the stove remains in standby, with an intermittent buzzer, for a USB ash drive containing the
rmware update. If a USB ash drive is not inserted, the stove exits this mode after 10 seconds.
