Nordpeis CC-RIO00-100 Ronda, User Manual

GB

a fresh air supply set (accessory) is connected through 

the floor, mark where the hole should be.

The insert expands when in use, and for this 

reason the insert must NEVER rest on the 

surround, but have a gap of about 3 mm.  The 

insert must neither rest on the bench plate or 

against the sides. It is recommended to dry stack 

the surround in order to adjust the insert prior to 

perforating the chimney for the flue connection. 

For the flue connection to the chimney, follow the 

recommendations from the chimney manufacturer.

Operating control

FIG 9A/9B: 

The door is opened and closed by gently 

pushing in the handle (about 10 mm) and then let it out 

again.

FIG 10: 

The air vent control is adjusted by moving the 

lever to the left.

FIG 11A:

 Remove ashes by shaking the ash grate with 

the cold-handle, or alternatively with a spade.

FIG 11B:

 The ashtray is pulled out in front with the cold-

handle.

When the insert is in an upright position, and

 prior to 

mounting the surround

, check that all functions are 

easy to manoeuvre and appear satisfactory.

Assembly instructions for the surround 

(FIG 13 - FIG 25)

Acrylic glue is used for gluing the elements towards 

wall, gluing the elements together and for filling joints.

When assembling, ensure that the vertical joints are  

absolutely vertical(FIG 17).

FIG 14: Place the bottom element and ensure that it is 

levelled. 

Adjust with wedges or powder glue 

if needed.

FIG 19:  Carefully tilt the insert backwards in order to 

place the lockring. 

FIG 20 / FIG 21 / FIG 23: 

Ensure that there is a gap 

between the insert and the surround as the insert 

expand with heat. 

FIG 23: Place two wedges on top of the insert before 

assembling the top elements in order to avoid that the 

element rests on the insert. Remove the wedges once 

the glue is dry.

Read the text on Adjustment for more information.

FIG 25: Once the fireplace is assembled, fill the joints 

with acrylic and even them out with a sponge or 

finger and some soapy water, in order to have a clear 

indentation between the elements (FIG Z).

6. Lighting the Fire for the First Time 

When the insert is assembled and all instructions have 

been observed, a fire can be lit.

Take care when inserting logs into the burn chamber, 

in order not to damage the Thermotte plates. Please 

note that there might be some humidity in the insulation 

plates which can result in a slower burn rate the first few 

times the insert is used. These will be resolved once 

the humidity has evaporated. Possibly leave the door 

slightly open the first 2-3 times that the insert is used. 

It 

is advisable to ventilate the room well when firing 

for the first time as the varnish on the product may 

release some smoke or smell. 

Both the smoke and 

smell will disappear and are not hazardous. 

Lighting a fire

Insert small dry pieces of kindling wood, ignite and 

ensure that the flames have established on the wood 

before closing the door. Open the air vent control (FIG 

10) before the door is closed. Additional ignition air 

is obtained by keeping the door slightly ajar.  The air 

supply is regulated with the air vent control once the 

flames are stable and the chimney is warm. 

When there is a glowing layer of ash, new wood logs 

can be inserted. Pull the hot ember to the front of the 

combustion chamber when inserting new logs so that 

the wood is ignited from the front. Keep the door slightly 

open each time new logs are inserted so that the flames 

get established. The fire should burn with bright and 

lively flames.

Using the insert with low combustion effect and firing 

around the clock increase pollution as well as the risk 

for a fire in the chimney. Never allow the insert or flue 

to become glowing red. Turn off the air vent control 

should this happen.  Regulation of the air vent control 

takes some experience, but after a little while a natural 

rhythm for the fire will be found.
