INITIAL OPERATION
Using the appliance the first time
PLEASE NOTE Before using the appliance for the first time, it is necessary to inspect all
system connections (flue pipe connection, combustion air connection, etc.).
Please make sure that there are no objects in the combustion chamber.
After the device has been installed and connected, and before it is entered into service for
the first time open the door of the combustion chamber and remove the accessories.
After you have familiarised yourself with how to operate the device, it can be entered into
service. During the first 2-3 days, only heat with low output.
Running in the appliance
A high-quality, air-drying varnish is used on the device. When this varnish is completely dry
(at room temperature), it is practically odourless and smoke-free. However, if the device is
heated before the varnish is completely dry, it may result in an unpleasant, yet harmless,
smoke or odour being produced for a short time. Make sure that the room where the device
has been installed is well ventilated!
Information on noises
The device may emit clicking noises due to the heating and cooling processes. These are
caused by the enormous temperature differences in the material and do not indicate a fault
with the device.
Information on combustion chamber lining
If the conditions for combustion are unfavourable (e.g. if the combustion chamber is cold
during the heating stage) a layer of black soot may form on the combustion chamber plate.
This does not indicate any fault with the device. After operating temperature has been
achieved, the soot deposits will burn off - the combustion chamber plate will become light
coloured.
However, if dirt does not come off the combustion chamber plate, please refer to the
information in the section “Troubleshooting”.
