First Lighting - EdilKamin CHIC Installation, Betrieb Und Wartung

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
NOTE on the fuel: wood
For a correct operation of the stove, it is necessary to burn dry natural wood, with a humidity of maximum 20%.
The wood reaches its maximum heating power when left to dry for over two years in a sheltered and ventilated place.
Therefore, using dry wood allows you to save considerably on heating costs.
Moreover, apart from having low heating power, wet wood causes grime in the stove.
Burning synthetic materials and waste of any kind is forbidden.
Warning: while in operation, some parts of the stove reach very high temperatures; therefore, we recommend keeping a good eye
on children.
The stove has been designed to work with the door closed only. Heat is propagated by radiation and convection.
Always use the provided glove to open the door and to make the adjustments.

FIRST LIGHTING

Any unpleasant odour or smoke could be caused by materials used during construction evaporating or drying. This tends to die
down after a few days.
P
as much as possible.
IN MANUAL MODE, the lever L must be moved fully right; in both modes, if the smoke duct is fitted with a damper it must be
left open.
- Light the paper and add about half the recommended amount of wood as the flames grow (see page 14).
- As soon as the flames go out and a good bed of embers has formed, load the firebox with the normal amount of wood (do not
exceed the maximum limit shown in the table at page 14)
- If the fire is too lively (in manual mode), we recommend closing the primary air valve partially by turning lever (L) (right: open -
left: closed) and slightly closing the draught valve (if fitted) on the smoke duct.
- Make sure the firebox door is always tightly shut when in operation.
NOTE: do not use alcohol, petrol, kerosene or other liquid fuels to light the fire. Keep liquid fuels away from the fire. Do not use
firelighters made from petroleum or chemical substances: they may cause serious damage to the firebox walls. Use eco-friendly
firelighters only.
Overloading (over 3.5 kg/h) or excessively lively flames may damage the firebox compartment.
