INFORMATION:
• Please contact the retailer or qualied personnel for any information, problem or malfunction.
• Only use the fuel specied by the manufacturer.
• When the product is switched on for the rst time, it is normal for it to emit smoke due to the paint heating up for the rst time.
Therefore make sure the room it is installed in is well-ventilated.
• Periodically check and empty the inspectionable parts of the smoke duct (e.g. Tee tting caps)
• Have the smoke outlet system periodically checked and cleaned
• The product is not a cooking appliance.
• Always keep the cover of the fuel hopper closed.
• Store this installation and user manual with care as it must accompany the product for the duration of its useful life. If the product is

INTENDED USE
The product only works with wood pellets and must be installed inside a room.
PRODUCT PERFORMANCE CHECKS.
All our products undergo ITT TESTS carried out by a notied third party laboratory (system 3) and in accordance with Regulation (EU)
number 305/2011“Construction products”, according to standard EN 14785:2006 for household appliances and“Machinery Directive”EN
303-5 for boilers.
In the case of tests for any market surveillance or inspections by third parties, please consider the following warnings:
• To reach the declared performance levels, the product must perform an operating cycle of at least 15-20 hours beforehand.
• Set the average draught of the combustion fumes as specied in the“technical product features”table
• Thetype of pelletsused must complywith the currentEN ISO17225-2 class A1regulation.Fir pellets areusually usedfor certication.
• The amount of thermal energy can vary according to the length and caloric value of the fuel. This may require some adjustments
(accessed from the user menu) to comply with the hourly consumption specied in the“technical product features”table. Using class
A1 pellets guarantees a caloric value that is likely to be close to that used in the product certication; the size of the pellet grains can
signicantly aect hourly fuel loading and consequently performance; it is therefore suggested to use pellets with a 6 mm diameter
and an average length of around 24 mm (avoid pellets that are too long or excessively crushed).
• Withwood-burningappliances,the fuelmust complywith the currentENISO 17225-5 classA1 regulation. Checkthecorrectmoisture
of the fuel, as it must be within the range of 12 - 20% (it is best if the moisture is close to 12%, as is normally used in certication). As
the fuel moisture increases, dierent combustion air settings are required, which are implemented from the combustion air register,
thereby modifying the mixture of primary and secondary air
• It is important to check the operation of devices that can aect performance (for example air fans or electric safety devices) in case
of damage due to handling.
• Nominal performance has been obtained by setting the maximum ame power and room ventilation in manual mode.
Performance at reduced power was achieved at minimum ame and ventilation power (P1 and V1) in manual mode.
The other conditions correspond to intermediate ventilation and power.
• If a “verication” mode is provided in the menu, set this function during the readings to ensure that no temperature modulation
occurs due to an incorrect setting of the operating parameters.
• Lastly, strictly comply with the sampling points specied in the regulations in terms of emissions as well as temperature

This symbol appears on the product, on the batteries, on the accumulators or on their packaging or on their documentation; it indicates
that the product and the batteries or the accumulators included must not be collected, recycled or disposed of with household waste at
the end of their service life.
Improper management of waste electrical and electronic equipment, batteries or accumulators can cause the hazardous substances
contained within to leak out. In order to avoid harming the environment or health, the user is required to separate this equipment, and/
or the batteries or accumulators included, from other types of waste and deliver them to the local collection centre. The distributor can
be asked to collect the waste electrical and electronic equipment under the conditions and according to the procedures laid down by
Legislative Decree 49/2014.
Separate collection and correct treatment of waste electrical and electronic equipment, batteries and accumulators contribute to
conserving natural resources, respect for the environment and ensure the protection of health.
For more information on collection centres for waste electrical and electronic equipment, batteries and accumulators, contact the
competent public Authorities for issue of the authorisations.

product parts). It also allows materials to be recovered in order to obtain signicant savings in energy and resources.
The following table and the exploded view it refers to highlight the main components that can be found in the device and indications on
how to separate and dispose of them correctly when no longer used.
More specically, the electric and electronic components must be separated and disposed of in authorised centres, in compliance with the
WEEE directive 2012/19/EU and the relative national transpositions.
