Practical advice
It is recommended to keep the radiators closed in the room
where the thermo replace is installed; The heat emitted from
the outlet may be suf cient to heat.
- An incomplete combustion process causes excessive fouling
on the heat exchanger pipe.
To prevent this you must:
- burn dry wood.
- ensure the hearth contains a bed of embers and burning car-
bon before adding more wood.
- place larger logs together with smaller ones.
- make sure the temperature of the return water is at least 50 °C
(use temperature control valve).
- Do not exceed the load values shown in the speci cation table
(page 28 under fuel consumption) since excessive loads can
create overheating problems.

- Ensure that at least one radiator is always open.
- Actuate the switches of the electronic regulator.
- Place a pile of medium-thin dry wood in the thermo replace
and ignite the re.
- Wait a few minutes until it reaches suf cient combustion.
- Close the door
- Set the thermostat on the electronic regulator (*) at a tempera-
ture between 50 and 70° C.
NOTE: There may be a slight smell of paint the rst few times
it is ignited, however, this will disappear quickly.

MAINTENANCE
Cleaning the hearth
- The soot deposits that tend to accumulate on the internal walls
of the hearth decrease the ef ciency of heat transfer.
- It is therefore necessary to clean the replace regularly, by
bringing the water temperature to 80 / 85° C to soften the fou-
ling and then remove this with a steel spatula.
Glass cleaning
- Use an appropriate spray for ceramic glass to clean the glass
(Glasskamin - Edilakmin).
- The glass must be cleaned when cold.
- Before opening the door, make sure it is secured with the
lever at the top right (T - g. 4).
- For the opening swing of the door it is necessary to bring it in
the closed position.
- Insert the "cold handle" door handle on the latch between the
structure and the door and turn to open ( g. 5).
