Taking the appliance in operation
3.1 For the first time
When using a chimney breast, it has to be dry before you take the appliance
into operation. This is to prevent shrinkage cracks.
!Caution
If the chimney breast is made of stone-like materials or has been finished in stuc-
co, it should be left to dry for at least 6 weeks prior to taking it into operation.
In order to be able to use the wireless remote control, you must set a communica-
tion code between the remote control and the receiver, prior to putting the appli-
ance into operation; for this, see section 4.2.1, Setting the communication code.
When the appliance is stoked up for the first time, an unpleasant smell may
occur as volatile components evaporate from paint, materials, etc. This may
take a number of hours.
Caution
- Pets and birds in particular can be sensitive to the vapours that are released;
- In the beginning the flame image is affected by the evaporation of volatile
components.
After burning the appliance for the first time, allow it to cool down to room
temperature and clean the glass pane(s); see chapter 5.
!Tip
- Set the appliance to its highest level to speed up the evaporation process;
- Keep the room well ventilated;
- Remove pets from the room.
