CHIMNEY CAP : a device placed on the top of the flue to facilitate the dispersion of fumes into the atmosphere.
CHIMNEY CAP technical requirements : it must have a section equivalent to that of the flue;
- it must have a useful section not less than double the internal section of the flue;
- it must prevent the entry of rain and foreign bodies and ensure the discharge of fumes in any
atmospheric condition;
- it must ensure an adequate dilution of fumes and be positioned outside the backflow area;
- it must be without mechanical means of suction.

2.5 Brazier and baffle position check
Before lighting the stove make sure the brazier is in the correct position, i.e. fitted in the special slots. Also make
sure the top smoke baffle is properly fitted. A wrongly positioned baffle can result in malfunctioning and excessive
blackening of the glass.
At every stove lighting, check the correct position of the brazier on the brazier holder.
2.6 Electrical connection
Connect one end of the power cable to the rear socket of the stove, and the other to the wall socket.
The voltage supplied by the system must match that specified on the stove dataplate and in the technical data
section of this manual. Plug the device power cord must be connected only AFTER the end of the installation and
assembly of the device and must remain accessible.
During stove idle periods it is advisable to remove the power cable (wiring diagram fig. 3)
- Make sure the electrical system is equipped with an earth and differential switch in accordance with the
current Regulations.
- The power cable must never touch the stove exhaust pipe.
2.7 Emergency
Suitable fire-prevention devices should be arranged for any eventuality.
In case of a fire, proceed as follows:
- Immediately disconnect the plug.
- Extinguish the fire using suitable fire-extinguishers.
- Call the fire department immediately.
- Do not use jets of waters to extinguish the fire.

3 STOVE SAFETY

3.1 Safety distance from flammable materials
To prevent the risk of fire, stove positioning must respect a minimum distance from flammable materials, according
to that given in the technical table of the manual and on the dataplate.
Pay attention to the type of floor: for delicate and flammable materials it is advisable to use plates in steel or
toughened glass as a support base (see section 2 - Transport and Installation). In case of particularly fragile objects
such as furniture, curtains or sofas, increase the stove distance considerably.
3.2 Fume exhaust safety
In normal operation the combustion chamber is in a negative pressure, guaranteeing seal against possible smoke
leaks in the room. If a certain vacuum level is not reached or the fume exhaust outlet is blocked, the vacuum switch
detects the lack of a negative pressure inside the combustion chamber or the air flow meter detects a lack of air flow
and, through the electronic controller, switches off the auger rotation motor, signalling the anomaly with a message
on the control panel 'AL 8 NO NEG PRESS' or 'AL 9 INSUF DRAUGHT'.
3.3 Combustion chamber overpressure safety
Any and/or sudden overpressures in the combustion fumes inside the chamber and fume exhaust ducts are
discharged by opening of the safety valves located on the heat exchanger. During normal operation these valves
are kept closed by their weight and the negative pressure in the combustion chamber, guaranteeing a seal against
any smoke escaping.
Periodically check closing, the integrity of the device and its operation.
