11-First Start-Up - RED COMPACT 18 Installation Manual

11-FIRST START-UP

BEFORE START-UP
GENERAL PRECAUTIONS
Remove all parts that may burn from the brazier and the product's tank (manual, various adhesive labels or any polystyrene).
Make sure all the refractory materials are positioned correctly and they do not obstruct the combustion chamber.
The first start-up may not be successful as the feed screw is empty and does not always manage to load the required
amount of pellets in time to light the flame.
If after repeated attempts, the flame fails to ignite, despite a regular flow of pellets in the brazier, which must rest snugly against the
slots and be clean without any ash incrustations. If no anomaly is found during this inspection, there may be a problem with the
product components or installation may not be correct.
REMOVE THE PELLETS FROM THE BRAZIER AND CONTACT AN AUTHORISED TECHNICIAN.
Do not touch the boiler during the first lighting, as it is during this phase that the paint sets; if you touch the paint,
you may expose the steel surface.
If necessary, touch up the paint with the aerosol spray in the original colour (see ''Accessories for pellet boilers'').
It is good practice to guarantee effective ventilation in the room during the initial start-up, as the boiler will emit some
smoke and smell of paint.
ATTENTION!
Please ensure the brazier is clear of ALL pellets and ash build up following any failed ignitions. Failure to clear out
the brazier prior to resetting may result in further failed ignitions or in certain conditions an explosive ignition.
