STARTUP (FIRST IGNITIONS)

In order to ignite the fire, we recommend using small wood strips with paper or other means such as fire starters.
It is forbidden to use liquid substances such as alcohol, gasoline, petroleum or similar products.
At the beginning, it is possible that you note smoke or smell which are typically produced when metals are subject to high
temperatures or when the paint is still fresh.
Never ignite the equipment when there are combustible gases in the environment.
In order to do a proper start-up of the products treated with paints used at high temperatures, it is important to consider the following
conditions:
• The materials of the products are not homogenous due to the fact that there are cast-iron parts and steel parts.
• The temperature of the product-s body is not uniform: among different zones there are variable temperatures between 300°C and
500°C.
• During its lifetime, the product is subject to ignitions stoppages even in the same day, as well as intensive use or not use depending
on the season.
• The equipment, at the beginning, must be subject to different start-up cycles so that all materials and the paint can complete different
elastic expansions.
Therefore, it is important to adopt these measures during the ignition phase:
1. Assure that there is a good air refill in the place where the equipment is installed.
2. During the 4 o 5 first ignitions, do not load excessively the combustion chamber and keep the oven lit during at least 6-10 hours
continuously.
3. Then, load it more, respecting the recommended load and try to leave the fireplace lit the maximum time as possible, trying to avoid
short ignition periods.
4. During the first ignitions, you should not place any object on the equipment and, in particular, on lacquered surfaces. Lacquered
surfaces should not be touched while the equipment is heated.

IGNITION AND NORMAL OPERATION

In order to do a good ignition of the oven, it is necessary to follow the next steps:
a. Open the door. Open completely the regulator of the primary air intake and the regulator of the secondary air intake. (in the models
which are adjustable, see section 2)
b. Insert a fire starter or a paper ball and some wood splinters into the chamber.
c. Light the paper or the splinter. Close the door slowly and leave it half-open 10 or 15 minutes while the glass is heated.
d. When there is flame enough, open the door slowly in order to avoid smoke returns and load the fireplace with dry wood logs. Close the
door slowly.
e. When the logs are lit, use the regulators located on the frontal part (primary and secondary air intake) in order to control the heat
emission of the fireplace. These regulators should be opened according to the heating needs. The best combustion (with minimum
emissions) is reached when the main part of the air for the combustion passes through the secondary air regulator.
In addition to the air regulation for the combustion, the draw also affects the intensity of the combustion and the heating performance of your
equipment. A good draught of the fireplace needs a reduced regulation of the air for the combustion, while a lack of draught needs a good
regulation of the air for the combustion.
Due to safety reasons, the door must remain closed when the fireplaces is being used. You should only open the door for loading the
fuel.
In order to refill the fuel, open the door slowly, open the primary air intake, introduce the wood and close the door. After 3-5 minutes, return to
the combustion recommended regulation.
Do not overload the equipment (see maximum fuel load). Too much fuel and too much air for the combustion can cause the
overheating and, therefore, damage the equipment. The non-compliance of this rule shall invalidate the warranty.

SERVICING AND CARE

The oven, the chimney and, in general, the whole installation, must be cleaned completely at least once a year or when necessary.
WARNING!! Maintenance and servicing operations must be done when the oven is cold.
These tasks are not covered by the warranty.
9.1.

CLEANING THE CHIMNEY

When the wood is burnt slowly, it produces tars and other organic vapours that combined with the humidity they create the creosote (soot).
An excessive accumulation of soot may cause problems in the smoke outlet and even the smoke duct may suffer a fire. A chimney sweep
should perform this task and, at the same time, examine the smoke duct. During the cleaning tasks, it is necessary to remove the ash pan,
the grille and the smoke baffle plate in order to makes easier the fall of the soot.
It is recommended to use anti-soot envelopes during the operation of the oven at least once a week. These envelopes are place directly on
the fire and you can buy them in the same Bronpi distributor where you bought your oven.
