On the external sides of the long hopper you can control the flow of warm air, whereas the central part is always open to diffuse the warm air by natural convection from inside the fireplace surround, to stabilise the temperature (see figure 4). TECH 3...
2); it is very important that both the appliance and the chimney flue be sufficiently warm to keep a good draught and reach the critical temperature ensuring the proper combustion of wood.

WARNING: Never use flammable liquids (alcohol or petrol) to speed up the lighting of a wood fire: it is extremely dangerous. Alcohol and petrol release highly flammable vapours, which could provoke the risk of burns. TECH 3...
Failure to do so causes the release of dangerous and toxic pollutants, which are highly noxious for you, your neighbours and the environment. Besides, burning household rubbish produces corrosive acids, which may seriously damage the internal parts of the appliance and the chimney flue, with consequential risk of fire of the chimney flue itself.

IMPORTANT: Disposed ashes contain small cinders which may flare up easily even after a long time; for this reason never remove ashes with a vacuum cleaner. Disposed ashes should always be temporarily placed in a closed metal container until all cinders have thoroughly cooled pending final disposal. TECH 3...
Just before the beginning of the next season, particularly as regards unoccuppied houses, we recommend checking the smoke channel and the chimney, in order to be sure that there is no clogging due to insects, birds or small mammals' nests.} TECH 3...
If after checking the previous solutions suggested the problem persists, ask for your dealer assistance service. In the meantime avoid using the appliance for long time in order to avoid any damages to the electrical components should the system of forced ventilation be out of order. TECH 3...
