3.4 Lighting and controlling the fire
To light the cooker, we recommend using small sticks and newspaper, or commercially available firelighters
(excluding all inflammable liquids).
While lighting the cooker, the primary air control under the fire door should be fully open; once the cooker is lit,
this control is used to regulate the heat output. During the lighting phase, it is also advisable to open the oven
bypass damper by pushing the lever towards the inside of the cooker.
Once the cooker has heated up, adjust the primary and secondary air flows and close the oven bypass damper
by pulling the lever towards the front of the cooker.
Never use petrol, alcohol or other flammable liquids to light the cooker.
3.5 Normal operation
Always remove the ashes from the grate before loading fuel. Put 2-3 logs of firewood on the fire bed.
Although the firebox has large capacity, we recommend putting no more than 2-3 logs on at a time. Overloading
the fire does not increase efficiency but causes the cooker to overheat, thus damaging it.
3.6 Slow burning operation
The heat output of the fire can be controlled by reducing the flow of combustion air. To allow the cooker to
continue burning slowly for several hours, the primary and secondary air flow controls should be open in the
minimum positions.
During slow burning operation, a patina may form on the glass due to the relatively low temperature in the
firebox.
Continuous operation at low heat output is not recommended, however.
3.7 Warm weather operation
When the external temperatures exceeds 15°C, the dr aught may be impaired as the heat output of the cooker
fire is reduced, so that combustion gases are not completely expelled (smell of smoke in the living space). If
this is the case, clean all the ash from the grate and increase the combustion air flow. Put less fuel on the fire
and clean the grate more frequently.
3.8 Operation of the oven
The cooker is equipped with a conventional static oven with a capacity of 39 litres, a stainless steel interior and
2 internal shelves.
A thermometer installed in the enamelled oven door shows the oven temperature.
When the cooker is lit for the first time, the oven should only be used after 1-2 hours operation at normal
temperature (200-250) °C with the oven door left sl ightly open to allow the elimination of gases produced by
residues of the manufacturing process, such as grease, oil and sealants; once this initial time period has
elapsed, the oven may be used to cook food.
Clean the oven after each use following the instructions given in the relative paragraph of this manual.
The oven may only be used for the purposes for which it is intended, i.e. the cooking of food; any other
use is deemed improper and potentially dangerous
.
3.9 Idle/summer period
In summer, it is good practice to clean the inside of the combustion chamber, the ash pan, the flueways in the
oven, the chimney and the flue; furthermore, all residue on the inside and outside of the cooker should be
removed completely and all seals and gaskets should be inspected and renewed where necessary.
The appearance of the hotplate and other cast iron parts can be maintained by applying neutral vaseline.
On completing the maintenance and cleaning of the cooker, close the doors and air controls to prevent dust and
dirt getting in.
If the cooker is not to be used for a long period, after cleaning as described above and disconnecting the flue,
cover the cooker with a protective sheet and store it in a safe, dry place.
