11. LIGHTING

After the first ignition you can smell bad odors (owing to the drying of the glue used in the garnitures or of the paint)
which disappear after a brief using of the appliance. A good ventilation of the room should always be guaranteed.
To light the fire, it is suggested to use small wood pieces together with paper or other traded lighting means.
It is forbidden to use any liquid substance as for ex. alcohol, gasoline, oil and similar.
You should place a little quantity of fuel and also open the primary air register (left lever completely pulled out, Picture
1 - 1A) and that of secondary air (right lever completely pushed, Picture 1 - 2A)
When wood starts to burn, it is possible to feed it again by opening slowly the door, in order to avoid leaks of smoke,
and close the primary air register (completely pushed) and control the combustion through the secondary air register
according to the provisions of CHAP. 12.
Please always be present during this phase.
Never overload the appliance (see the technical table - max. quantity of fuel that can be loaded / hourly
consumption – (see CHAP. 18). Too much fuel and too much air for combustion can cause overheating and
therefore damage the same.
Never switch on the device when there are combustible gases in the room.
To perform a correct first lighting of the products treated with paints for high temperature, it is necessary to know the
following information:
the construction materials of the involved products are not homogeneous, in fact there are simultaneously parts in
cast iron, steel, refractory material and majolica;
the temperature to which the body of the product is subject is not homogeneous: from area to area, variable
temperatures within the range of 300° C - 500° C are detected;
during its life, the product is subject to alternated lighting and extinguishing cycles in the same day, as well as to
cycles of intense use or of absolute standstill when season changes;
the new appliance, before being considered seasoned has to be subject to many start cycles to allow all materials
and paints to complete the various elastic stresses;
in detail, initially it is possible to remark the emission of smells typical of metals subject to great thermal stress, as
well as of wet paint. This paint, although during the manufacture it is backed at 250 ° C for some hour s, must
exceed many times and for a given period of time the temperature of 350 ° C before becoming completely
embedded in the metallic surfaces.
Therefore, it is extremely relevant to take these easy steps during the lighting:
1. Make sure that a strong air change is assured in the room where the appliance is installed.
2. During the first starts, do not load excessively the combustion chamber (about half the quantity indicated in the
instructions manual) and keep the product continuously ON for at least 6-10 hours with the registers less open
than the value indicated in the instructions manual.
3. Repeat this operation for at least 4-5 or more times, according to your possibilities.
4. Then load more and more fuel (following in any case the provisions contained in the installation booklet concerning
maximum load) and, if possible, keep the lighting periods long avoiding, at least in this initial phase, short ON/OFF
cycles.
5. During the first starts, no object should be leaned on the appliance and in detail on enameled surfaces.
Enameled surfaces must not be touched during heating.
6. Once the «break-in» has been completed, it is possible to use the product as the motor of a car, avoiding abrupt
heating with excessive loads.

12. NORMAL OPERATION

The nominal power of the appliance is of: see Chap.18. This power will be reached with a minimum depression in the
chimney of see Chap.18. With the registers located on the front of the appliance, it is possible to adjust the heat
emission of the same. They have to be opened according to the calorific need. The best combustion (with minimum
emissions) is reached when, by loading the wood, most part of the air for combustion flows through the secondary air
register.
Never overload the appliance (see the hourly wood load in the table here below). Too much fuel and too much
air for the combustion may cause overheating and then damage the stove.
You should always use the INSERTO with the door closed in order to avoid damages due to overheating (forge
effect). The inobservance of this rule makes the warranty expire.
The INSERTO is an appliance with intermittent operation.
Besides the adjustment of air for combustion, the intensity of the combustion and consequently the thermal
performance of your appliance is influenced by the stack. A good draught of the stack requires a stricter adjustment of
air for combustion, while a poor draught requires a more precise adjustment of air for combustion.
