4-UNPACKING IMPORTANT! The product must be installed and connected to the smoke duct exclusively by a specialised technician, so that every local or national regulation is complied with. Installation must nevertheless be carried out in accordance with regulation UNI 10683. When you unwrap the product, make sure that every part is in perfect working order and check for any damage due to transport.

5-POSITIONING PRODUCT HEIGHT AND LEVELLING ADJUSTMENT The product is fitted with adjustment feet “v” which are screwed to the product, and whose purpose is to adjust the levelling of the hearth; therefore, the adjustment range is minimal. To adjust the feet, you need to lift the product slightly, tighten or loosen the screws by holding the thread with your fingers in order to level the product (the adjustment range is approximately 1 cm).
6-COMBUSTION AIR 6-COMBUSTION AIR COMBUSTION AIR INLET The product has a hole with a diameter of 100 mm for the intake of the air required for combustion. Connect the air inlet hole to the outside using a flexible hose and a grid in the room so that the air mixes perfectly inside the installation premises.
7-FLUE CONNECTION TO THE FLUE We recommend connecting the closed fireplace to the flue using aluminium-plated steel pipes and bends that are able to withstand the high temperatures of that section and smoke corrosion. These connections are available on request in various sizes (see our price list) and they simplify installation as they are assembled by fitting one inside the other.
8-INSULATION 8-INSULATION CLADDING AND COUNTER-HOOD ASSEMBLY READ THE “OPERATION TEST” CHAPTER BEFORE STARTING ANY CLOSED FIREPLACE CLADDING OPERATION The closed fireplace and parts of the cladding must be fastened to each other WITHOUT TOUCHING THE STEEL STRUCTURE to avoid transmitting heat to the marble and/or stone and to allow for normal thermal dilation; pay attention to wood finishes like beams or shelves.
9-VENTILATION HOOD VENTILATION OUTLETS It is mandatory to install the manufacturer’s hood ventilation vents or vents that can guarantee the same kind of opera- tion and the same air passage section. The producer is not liable for any damage to the structure or to the electric components caused by failure to comply with this warning. For correct operation of ambient ventilation, remember that: Lower part “R”...
9-VENTILATION OPERATING MODE SELECTION IMPORTANT! Prior to installation one needs to decide whether the warm air outlet should be through the front vents of the insert or the air should be ducted through the two top knockout holes. Should one decide to duct the air, the top knockout holes (“C”) Ø100 and Ø150 must be opened. To detach the knockout holes, use a drill with Ø4 mm bit (see image).

10-CHOICE OF FUEL The instructions in this chapter refer explicitly to the Italian installation regulation UNI 10683. In any case, always observe the regula- tions in force in the country of installation. FUEL Below are some useful instructions for the correct use of the product •...
Page 43
10-CHOICE OF FUEL FUEL: Wood In order to achieve maximum efficiency from your product, it is of utmost importance to use wood with suitable characteristics. We recommend using heating wood such as oak-beech-ash-robinia-common oak or non-resinous pressed wood logs. The latter has a high calorific value and must be used with caution to avoid harmful overheating of the product.
11-OPERATION PRECAUTIONS BEFORE START-UP Make sure you have read and fully understood the contents of this instruction manual. Remove all components that could burn from the firebox and door (instructions and various adhesive labels). Remove the stickers from the ceramic glass otherwise the high temperature could melt them and cause irreparable damage to the glass. The product can be positioned at in a corner or along a wall.
Page 45
11-OPERATION A high percentage of moisture causes condensation in the smoke duct, causing an alteration to the draught and generating smoke and considerable soot deposits in the firebox, on the glass of the door and on the chimney, with the subsequent risk of this catching fire. It also leads to a much lower overall efficiency.
12-FIRST IGNITION NOTE REGARDING PAINT EXHALATION It is recommended to air the room the first time the stove is switched on, to evacuate any smells and/or fumes emitted by the paint during the drying and hardening stage due to the heat. Do not stand close to the stove and as mentioned, air the room.
12-FIRST IGNITION The photo on the side on the side logs illustrates a tack of lighted from the wood lighted from the bottom with dry top with dry wood. wood This is the This is the most most common correct and clean way method but not of starting the fire.
13-COMBUSTION CONTROL PRIMARY AIR The primary air enters when the front shutter “P” is in “PULLED OUT” position. This air makes combustion possible. It is recommended to use the claw “U” supplied while adjusting the air to prevent burns. The lever “P” can be extracted completely or in incremental steps to adjust air inlet.
13-COMBUSTION CONTROL SECONDARY AIR Adjustment is carried out with the lever “S”. It is recommended to use the claw “U” supplied when adjusting the air to prevent burns. Secondary air allows the completion of combustion and increases the efficiency. When the lever is “PULLED OUT”, a larger amount of air flows in, used in the ignition phase. When the product is running smoothly, close the lever «S».
14-FANS SWITCH At the bottom right there is a switch that is used to switch on the two fans “V” in the lower part of the product. The switch has three positions: 0 - minimum automatic I - minimum speed in manual mode II - maximum speed in manual mode There are three wires that need to be connected to a plug (not supplied) which must then be plugged into a wall socket.

15-FIREBOX DOOR DOOR OPENING To open the product door “M”, fit the hook “U” into the hole in the handle and pull it towards you. During normal use always keep the fire door always fully closed, as intermediate positions cause anomalous combustion (forge effect), quick wood consumption and also drastically reduce the appliance’s heating effectiveness.

17-CLEANING ATTENTION! All cleaning operations of all parts need to be carried out when the closed fireplace is completely cold; make sure that the ashes are out, use personal protective equipment and use appropriate maintenance equipment. CLEANING UNDER THE USER’S RESPONSIBILITY CLEANING THE GLASS To clean the glass, use specific products (see our price list) or a cloth dipped in water and ammonia solution or a little white ash and a sheet of newspaper.
17-CLEANING CLEANING THE REFRACTORY WALLS (ALUTEC®) These do not need to be cleaned because the feature of this material (ALUTEC®) is that it does not absorb soot, rather, it repels it when the firebox is hot. After ignition, when the firebox would normally tend to blacken, the refractory walls will tend to turn white again, starting from the base of the flam, when the combustion chamber reaches the operating temperature (~ 400°...
