Fire STARTER MODULE. This re starter module replaces a paper or cardboard starter.

Prepare four logs, 20 cm long with a cross section of 3 cm by 3 cm Picture 7 at page 61. Cross the four logs and place them on top of the

pile of wood at right angles, with the re lighter (wax impregnated wood bre for example) in the middle. The re can be lit with a match. If

you want, you can use thinner pieces of wood. In this case, you will need a larger quantity.

Keep the ue gas exhaust valve and combustion air regulator open.

After lighting the re, leave the combustion air regulator open in the position shown in according to the instructions on paragraph

10. NORMAL OPERATION

After having positioned the registers correctly, insert the indicated hourly wood load avoiding overloads that cause anomalous stresses and

deformations (according to the instructions on paragraph TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION). You should always use the product with the

door closed in order to avoid damages due to overheating (forge effect). The inobservance of this rule makes the warranty expire.

For safety reasons the door of the appliances with constructive system 1, must be opened only for the loading of the fuel or for removing

the ashes, while during the operation and the rest, the door of the hearth must remain closed.

The appliances with constructive system 2 must be connected to their own ue. The operating with open door is allowed under supervision.

IMPORTANT: For safety reasons the door of the hearth can be opened only for the loading of the fuel. The hearth door must

always remain closed during operation or rest.

The adjustment of the registers necessary to reach the rated caloric yield with a depression at the stack of 12 Pa (1,2mm of column of

water) is the following one: see chapter TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION. The appliance works as an intermittent operating appliance.

Besides the adjustment of the air for the combustion, the intensity of the combustion and consequently the thermal performance of the

device is inuenced by the stack. A good draught of the stack requires a stricter adjustment of air for combustion, while a poor draught

requires a more precise adjustment of air for combustion.

To verify the good combustion, check whether the smoke coming out from the stack is transparent.

If it is white, it means that the device is not properly adjusted or the wood is too wet; if instead the smoke is gray or black, it signals that the

combustion is not complete (it is necessary a greater quantity of secondary air).

WARNING: When fuel is added onto the embers in the absence of a ame, a considerable amount of fumes may develop. Should this

happen, an explosive mixture of gas and air may form, and in extreme cases an explosion may occur. For safety reasons it is advisable

The oven pan and the chrome plated oven grille may be located on different plans (see chapter Technical Description -

ACCESSORIES).

When cooking food with high humidity, cakes with fruit or fruit itself, water of condensation will be produced. During the cooking process

some water vapour in the form of drops of condensed water can deposit onto the top and the side of the door. It is a physical phenomenon.

By opening the door briey and carefully (1 or 2 times, or even often in case of longer cooking times) you can let out the steam from the

cooking compartment and reduce condensation signicantly.

10.2. OPERATION IN TRANSITION PERIODS

During transition periods when the external temperatures are higher, if there is a sudden increase of temperature it can happen that the

combustion gases inside the ue cannot be completely sucked up.

The exhaust gases do not come out completely (intense smell of gas). In this case, shake the grating more frequently and increase the air
