IV.- MAINTAINING THE FIRE
Clean the exterior surface with a damp cloth. Do not use cleaning products that may damage the paintwork and / or produce unpleasant fumes.
The combustion chamber door must be kept shut except when lighting the fire or adding wood to the fire.
The ashtray must also be kept shut except when removing ashes.
Do not use the fire in a total isolated room- it is important to allow a constant flow of fresh air.
Do not attempt any unauthorised modification to the fireplace.
Only use spare parts approved by the manufacturer.
Periodically clean the appliance, the flue connector and the chimney pipe, and check there is no obstruction on them after a large period without using.
V.- SAFETY ADVICE
− Never use the fire when there are inflammable gases in the room.
− In order to let the fire working efficiently and safely, the room needs to have a sufficient flow of air. When the building has been built-up in a way that doesn't
provide the necessary flow of air to fulfil the essential requirements, we recommend an exterior air vent through permanent slits of at least 200 cm².
− The combustion air inlets must not be modified under any circumstance.
− The grill air vents of the fireplace must be kept clear of any obstruction at all times.
− To avoid the risk of accidental fires, we advice to take protection measures as keeping flammable objects well away from the appliance and thermal
insulation. The minimum distance from inflammable materials must be at least 1,5 m to the front of the fireplace. Keep the same security distance with damp
clothes put close to the fire to dry.
− The fireplace and surround must not be installed in a place where there is heavy movement.
− To avoid accidents, tell the children that the fireplace gets very hot when is being used and advise them not to touch it.
− Do not put the residual ashes on top of materials that could burn such as paper cardboard or wood. The ashes can remain hot for a very long time.
− The first time the fire is used it is important not to touch it until it is cold to allow the paint to seal. It is normal when the fire is first used for smells and smokes
to be given off until the paint/joints are well-sealed. We therefore recommend that windows are left slightly open during this time.
− It is dangerous to overheat the appliance.
− Blazing fires of twigs, kindling, vine shoots, straw, cardboard etc. are definitely not advisable.
− Do not burn refuse, plastics, etc.
− Do not build the fire high.
− The combustion chamber must not be removed or taken apart.
− Never use the appliance without the ashtray cleaned up, in order to avoid the deformation of the cast iron grill/base, which will cancel the guarantee.
− To protect the appliance of water accumulation, avoid humidity in the outlet pipe as well as the entry of water into the fireplace.
− The climatological conditions of the place can affect to the good working of the equipment and security of the users, particularly when there is a potential risk
of frosts. . If you notice a malfunction in these conditions, you can close all air inlets to the combustion chamber to avoid to keep it burning.
