1.4 GENERAL GUIDELINES
Attention: the appliance must be connected to a system provided with a PE conductor (in compliance with the
specifications concerning low-voltage equipment). Before installing the appliance check the efficiency of the earth
circuit of the power supply system.
Attention: the power supply line must have a section which is suitable for the power of the equipment. The cable section must in any
case be no less than 1.5 mm². The appliance requires powering with a voltage of 230V and 50 Hz. Voltage variations greater than
10% of the nominal value can cause irregular operation or damage the electrical device. Position the appliance so that the electric
power outlet in the room is easily accessible. Ensure that a suitable differential switch is installed upstream from the equipment.
Position the power supply cable in order to prevent any contact of the latter with the smoke exhaust pipe or hot parts of the
appliance. If the power cord is damaged it must be replaced by the manufacturer or by an authorised technical assistance service in
order to avoid risks.
The product must not be used by children under the age of 8 years, by persons with physical, mental or sensorial impairments, or
by persons who are not familiar with the instructions for use and maintenance of the product (the instructions are found in this
booklet). Children must not play with the appliance.
ATTENTION: before every use make sure that the burner and the ash pan are clean, and check that the firebox door is firmly
closed and air tight.
ATTENTION: the door must always remain shut tight when the appliance is operating. it is strictly forbidden to open the door while
the flame is still burning. During operation, the smoke exhaust pipes, door, handles and some parts of the appliance may reach
extremely high temperatures: be careful not to touch them and also educate children to be aware of said risks. Do not expose your
body to hot air for long, do not overheat the room in which the appliance is installed, as these actions could cause health problems.
Do not expose plants or animals directly to the hot air flow as this could have noxious effects on them. It is prohibited to use any
liquids or gases such as alcohol, petrol, etc. to light or rekindle the fire, use only thin wood. Do not place non-heat resistant or
inflammable or combustible objects in the vicinity of the appliance: keep them at a suitable distance. Do not place wet clothing to
dry on the appliance. When using a clothes horse, keep at a suitable distance. It is strictly prohibited to disconnect the appliance
from the electrical power mains while it is in operation.
Caution: do not wet the appliance and do not touch the electrical parts with wet hands. Never vacuum hot ash: this
could damage the vacuum device. All the cleaning operations described in this manual must be carried out when the
appliance is cold and shut off.
Attention! Warning for Swiss users
Refer to the local cantonal regulations imposed by the Fire Department (Mandatory signalling and safety distances)
and the Note concerning installation of heaters issued by the Association of Cantonal Fire Agencies (VKF - AEAI).
ATTENTION: it is mandatory to earth the appliance. If this instruction is not observed serious damage, which is not
covered by warranty, will result to the body of the appliance. Have an electrician check the earthing. There must be
no electric potential (Volt) between the earth of the generator and the actual earth of the system.
1.5 TRANSPORTATION AND STORAGE
TRANSPORTATION AND HANDLING
The appliance body must always be in a vertical position when handled and exclusively by means of trolleys. Take special care to
protect the electric panel and all the fragile parts from mechanical impact which could damage them and their correct functioning.
We recommend handling the generator with the casing removed so as to avoid any damage.
