5. OPERATION 
5.1.  PRE-LIGHTING WARNINGS 
Make sure you have read and completely understood the contents of 
this instruction booklet. 
Remove all accessories and parts that could burn from the firebox and 
from the door. 
Remove the stickers from the ceramic glass or the high 
temperature could melt them and irreparably damage the 
glass. In this case, the company warranty does not cover the 
glass. 
Avoid touching the stove paintwork when it is lit for the first 
time. During the initial firing of the stove the paint cures 
and hardens. If the paint is touched during this period, you 
may expose the steel surface. 
Provide plenty of ventilation in the room during the initial 
firing, as the stove may give off a small amount of smoke 
or fumes during the curing process 
If necessary, touch up the paint with the aerosol spray in 
the original colour (see “Fireplace stove accessories and 
inserts") 
Do not stay near the fireplace stove, and as previously mentioned, 
ventilate the room. The smoke and the smell of paint will vanish after 
about one hour of operation. There are no health risks involved.
During start-up and cooling, the fireplace stove is subject to expansion 
and contraction; therefore, you may hear slight creaking noises. 
This phenomenon is absolutely normal, the structure being made of 
sheet steel, and must not be considered a fault. 
It is very important not to bring the stove up to full 
heat immediately. Bring it up to temperature 
gradually. 
This avoids damages to welds and the steel 
structure. 
Do not demand full heating 
performance straight away!
