1-WARNINGS AND WARRANTY CONDITIONS SPARE PARTS In the event of a malfunction, consult the retailer who will forward the call to the Technical Assistance Service. Use only original spare parts. The retailer or service centre can provide all necessary information regarding spare parts. We do not recommend waiting for the parts to be worn before having them replaced. It is important to perform regular maintenance.
2-INSTALLATION The instructions in this chapter refer explicitly to the Italian installation regulation UNI 10683. In any case, always observe the domestic regulations in force. PELLETS Wood pellets are manufactured by hot-extruding compressed sawdust which is produced during the working of natural dried wood. The compactness of the material is guaranteed by the lignin contained in the wood itself and allows pellets to be produced without glue or binders.
2-INSTALLATION FOREWORD The installation position must be chosen according to the room, to the smoke extraction system, to the chimney flue. Check with local authorities whether there are any restrictive regulations in force regarding the combustion air inlet, the smoke outlet system, the flue or the chimney cap.
2-INSTALLATION FOREWORD The Chimney Flue chapter has been drawn up with reference to the provisions of European Standards (EN13384 - EN1443 - EN1856 EN1457). The chapter provides instructions for installing a chimney flue efficiently and properly, but under no circumstances is it a substitute of the Standards in force, which the qualified technician must be in possession of.
2-INSTALLATION TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS Have the efficiency of the flue checked by an authorised technician. The flue must be sealed against flue gasses, in a vertical direction without narrowing, be made with materials impermeable to smoke, condensation, thermally insulated and suitable to resist normal mechanical stress over time (we recommend fireplaces made of A/316 or refractory material with insulated round section double chamber).

2-INSTALLATION MAINTENANCE The flue must be kept clean, since the deposit of soot or unburned oils reduces the cross-section reducing the draft and thus compromising the efficient operation of the stove and, if large build-ups accumulate, can catch fire. The flue and chimney must be cleaned and checked by a qualified chimney sweep at least once a year. Once maintenance has been performed, request a written declaration that the system is safe. Failure to clean the system jeopardises safety.
2-INSTALLATION EXTERNAL AIR INLET It is mandatory to provide an adequate external air intake that supplies the combustion air required for the product to work properly. The flow of air between the outside and the installation room may be direct, through an inlet in an external wall of the room; or indirect, via air intake from adjoining rooms and connecting permanently with the installation room (see Figure 9 b).
2-INSTALLATION DISTANCE (metres) The air inlet must be at a distance of: 1.5 m UNDER Windows, doors, smoke outlets, cavities, .... 1.5 m HORIZONTALLY Windows, doors, smoke outlets, cavities, .... 0.3 m ABOVE Windows, doors, smoke outlets, cavities, .... 1.5 m AWAY from smoke outlet CONNECTION TO THE FLUE The connection between the flue and the appliance must be via a smoke duct that complies with EN 1856-2.
2-INSTALLATION EXAMPLES OF CORRECT INSTALLATION 1 U F E V I 2 1. Installation of Ø120mm flue with hole for the passage of the pipe increased by: minimum 100mm around the pipe if next to non flammable parts such as cement, brick, etc.; or minimum 300mm around the pipe (or as required by data tags) if next to flammable parts such as wood etc. In both cases, install suitable insulation between the flue and the ceiling.

11-OPERATION Load feed screw function This function, which can only be turned on when the stove is off, is designed to load pellets into the loading system (feed screw). It should be used whenever the pellet tank is empty (see alarm A02) to avoid a failed ignition (alarm A01) due precisely to the fact that there are no more pellets in the tank.
12-SAFETY DEVICES SAFETY DEVICES The product is fitted with the following safety devices. SMOKE TEMPERATURE PROBE It detects the temperature of the smoke, thereby enabling start-up or stopping the product when the temperature drops below the preset value. PELLET HOPPER TEMPERATURE PROBE If the temperature exceeds the preset safety value, it immediately stops the product, which must cool down before the stove is restarted.
13-ALARMS ALARM ALERTS In the event an operating anomaly occurs the stove starts switching off due to the alarm and informs the user of the type of fault that has taken place via a 3 digit code which stays displayed on the rear emergency panel. The alarm is indicated permanently by the relative 3 digit code, by a flashing red LED that lights up on the emergency panel and an intermittent sound signal for the first 10 minutes of the alarm.
13-ALARMS A12 The remote control has been out of the reception range of the stove for over three hours (or the batteries are flat). NOTE: only in this case, the stove does not enter the shutdown stage due to an alarm, and continues to work in the mode set by the remote control via the last command. Move the remote control within the reception range of the stove (or change the remote control batteries in the event they are flat).
13-ALARMS Mechanical stove block The following conditions may cause the mechanical stove block: • Structure overheating (“A03”) • Smoke overheating (“A04”) • During stove operation air has entered the combustion chamber or there is an obstruction in the chimney flue (“A05”) The block is signalled on the display and with a sound signal. In this situation the shutdown stage is activated automatically.When this procedure is started, any test operation to restore the system is useless.
14-RECOMMENDATIONS FOR SAFE USE ONLY CORRECT INSTALLATION AND APPROPRIATE MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING OF THE APPLIANCE CAN GUARANTEE CORRECT OPERATION AND SAFE USE OF THE PRODUCT. We would like to inform you that we are aware of cases of malfunctioning of domestic pellet-fuelled heating products, mainly due to incorrect installation and use, as well as inadequate maintenance. We would like to assure you that all of our products are extremely safe and certified according to European standards of reference.
15-CLEANING Only by properly servicing and cleaning the product is it possible to ensure its safety and correct operation. ATTENTION! All the cleaning operations of all parts must be performed with the product completely cold and the plug disconnected. Disconnect the product from the 230V power supply before performing any maintenance operation. The product requires little maintenance if used with certified good quality pellets.
15-CLEANING Ash pan cleaning Remove and empty the “B” ash tray. Wipe away any residual ash before reinserting the pan. Your experience and the quality of the pellets will determine the ash tray cleaning frequency. However, it is recommended not to exceed 2 or 3 days. A B LOWER COMPARTMENT CLEANING CLEANING THE GLASS It is recommended to clean the ceramic glass with a dry brush, or if it is very dirty, spray a little specific detergent and clean with a cloth.
15-CLEANING CLEANING THE AIR FILTER When the stove is installed, one must fit the rear of the stove with the wire mesh air filter, whose purpose is to prevent dirt entering the motor body and the internal sensor. It is recommended to check that the filter is clean every 15/20 days. If needed remove fluff or the material that has deposited on it. Inspection and cleaning are required more frequently if there are pets in the house.
15-CLEANING PERIODIC CLEANING PERFORMED BY A QUALIFIED TECHNICIAN CLEANING THE UPPER COMPARTMENT Half-way through the winter season, but especially at the end, the compartment through which the exhaust smoke passes will need to be cleaned. This cleaning process is mandatory in order to facilitate the general removal of all combustion residues, before it becomes very difficult to remove it due to the humidity compacting it over time.
15-CLEANING CLEANING THE LOWER COMPARTMENT To clean the bottom compartment, you need to remove ash pan “B” and brazier “A”. Remove the front inspection cap “E” by undoing the three screws “F”. Remove any ash residues using the vacuum cleaner. E F CLEANING THE SMOKE DUCT AND GENERAL CHECKS Clean the smoke extractor system, especially around the “T” joints, elbows and any horizontal sections of the smoke duct. For information on periodically cleaning the flue, contact a skilled chimney sweep.
15-CLEANING V S U PERIODICAL CHECK OF THE DOOR CLOSURE Make sure the door closure ensures a correct sealing action (with the “paper sheet” test) and that when the door is closed, the closing block (X in the figure) does not protrude from the sheet metal to which it is secured. For some products it will be necessary to disassemble the cladding to be able to assess the anomalous protrusion of the block when the door is closed.
15-CLEANING SHUTDOWN (end of season) At the end of each season, before switching the product off, it is recommended to remove all the pellets from the hopper with a vacuum cleaner with a long pipe. When not in use the appliance must be disconnected from the mains power supply. It is recommended to remove the power cable for additional safety, especially in the presence of children.
