Rossella Plus – Rossella Plus forno / Nicoletta – Nicoletta forno / Gisella
To ignite the fire we recommend to use small strips of wood with newspaper paper or other ignition media
normally sold, excluding all liquid substances as for ex. alcohol, gasoline, petroleum or similar.
The openings for air (primary and secondary) must be opened together (you must open the eventual
butterfly valve placed on the pipe of smokes exhaust). When the wood starts burning, you may load other
fuels and adjust the air for combustion according to the instructions on paragraph 10. Please always be
present during this phase.
Never overload the stove (compare the table of technical data - max. quantity of loadable fuel). Too much
fuel and too much air for the combustion may cause overheating and then damage the stove. The
warranty does not cover the damages due to overheating of the equipment.
10. NORMAL OPERATION
For safety reasons the door of the appliances with constructive system 1, must be opened only for the
loading of the fuel or for removing the ashes, while during the operation and the rest, the door of the hearth
must remain closed.
The appliances with constructive system 2 must be connected to their own flue. The operating with open
door is allowed under supervision.
IMPORTANT: For safety reasons the door of the hearth can be opened only for the loading of the
fuel. The hearth door must always remain closed during operation or rest.
The nominal power of the appliance (8 kW) will be reached with a minimum depression of 12 Pa (= 1,2 mm
of water column).
With the controls positioned on the front of the appliance it is possible to adjust the heat emission of the
hearth. 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 appliance with the door closed in order to avoid damages due to overheating
(forge effect).
The inobservance of this rule makes the warranty expire.

This is an appliance with intermittent operation.
Besides by the adjustment of air for the combustion, the intensity of combustion and then the calorific value
of your stove is affected by the chimney. A good flue of the chimney requires a more reduced adjustment of
air for the combustion, while a poor flue needs more an exact adjustment of air for combustion.
To verify the good combustion of the stove, check if the smoke coming out from the chimney is transparent.
If it is white, it means that the stove is not correctly adjusted or the wood is too wet; if on the contrary the
smoke is gray or black, it means that the combustion is not complete (it is necessary a greater quantity of
secondary air).
11. OPERATION IN TRANSITION PERIODS
During transition periods when the external temperatures are higher, if there is a sudden increase of
temperature it can happen that the combustion gases inside the flue cannot be completely sucked up.
The exhaust gases do not come out completely (intense smell of gas). In this case, shake the grating more
frequently and increase the air for the combustion. Then, load a reduced quantity of fuel in order to permit a
rapid burning (growing up of the flames) and the stabilization of the draught.
Then, check that all openings for the cleaning and the connections to the stack are air-tigh.
12. USE OF THE OVEN
After cleaning the grate, load some fuel. Thanks to the air flow for the combustion, the temperature of the
oven may become remarkably affected. A sufficient flue of the chimney and of the channels, well cleaned
for the flow of burning smokes around the oven are fundamental for a good cooking result.
