EXTERNAL AIR INTAKE (Figs. A-B)
The connection with the outside, made with a cross-
sectional area of at least 80/200 cm² (depending on
the model) is absolutely essential, as prescribed by
the standard governing installation requirements (UNI
10683).
It must, therefore, be provided.
It is made with a duct that must bring outside air
directly to the adjustment mechanism (Fig. B). The
regulation mechanism must be attached to the bottom
of Firebox®.
During installation, carefully seal the points where the
external air may leak.
The external air duct may come from behind, from
below, from the side, or consist of a fl exible hose
which runs directly from the outside to the mechanism
vent (Fig. B).
It is advisable to apply a protection grille on the outside
of the air-intake duct that does not, reduce the air-fl ow
capacity.
The external air must be drawn in at floor level.
If it is not possible to do as described above, place the
external air intake as near to Firebox® as possible.

HOT-AIR CIRCULATION AND DUCTINGHOT-AIR CIRCULATION AND DUCTING
(FIG. D)(FIG. D)
The air drawn from the outside through the special
mechanism (A) is mixed with air drawn from the room
through the lower grilles (B). The mixed air is then
heated in the rear cavity and comes out into the room
through the upper front grille (C).
This ensures replenishment of the air which leaves
Firebox® through the flue during operation and at the
same time heats the room.
Alternatively, the hot air may reach the room through
an outlet connected to the holes in the upper part of
Firebox® (D) with Ø 14 cm aluminium pipes.
The air circulation described above may take place
naturally by convection or with the help of two fans (E)
housed in the base.
If the hot air is channelled into rooms other than the one
in which Firebox® is installed, it is necessary to ensure
an air return to the installation room through grilles at
the bottom of the walls or gaps under the doors.
The pipe diameter must not be less than 14 cm so
that the air does not exceed a speed of 5 m/s, thus
avoiding irritating noises or excessive load losses
owing to friction.
It is important that the path of the pipes is as straight
as possible.
Aluminium pipes may be hidden within the ceiling or
false beams, or built into walls; in any case, they must
be well insulated.
The ducting must be a maximum of 4 - 5 m long for
Firebox® with natural convection and 6 - 7 m long for
Firebox® with forced ventilation.
This length must be reduced by 1.2 m for each bend
and for each outlet owing to load losses.

This occurs when the air circulates naturally in

(the physical principle that causes hot air to rise).
FORCED VENTILATION FORCED VENTILATION
(fig. H)
This is achieved with the use of two fans (17) inserted
in the lower part of Firebox®, a temperature thermostat
housed next to one of the two fans and a two-speed
switch (18) to be placed near the fi replace.
Connecting the forced-ventilation equipment:
- connect the switch to the fans by inserting connector
(M) into connector (F).
- connect the switch to the 230 VAC mains using the
plug (S).
Operation of the two-speed switch:
- to start the fans, set the switch to “manual” (first or
second speed as desired).
- to stop the fans set the switch to “automatic”
N.B.: in the “automatic” position, the fans operate
automatically when the air temperature is above 50°C,
to prevent damage from excessive heat, and then
they remain off at lower temperatures.

SMOKE DAMPER ADJUSTMENT:
in the event of diffi culty clearing the smoke (low draught), evacuation can be improved by adjusting the screw on the
damper control rod.
By turning the screw (clockwise) and closing the door, the damper will remain slightly inclined, helping the smoke to
fl ow out.

Lighting a cold fifi replace
1. Check the existing ash bed is not too high. If the
ash bed is too high, there is a danger of opening the
door of the fifi replace to add wood and possible
brazier fragments fall out of the fifi replace.
2. Position the adjustment lever of the valve in the “total
opening” position . The air for combustion will flfl ow
intensely to the wood in the fifi replace, to quickly reach
good combustion.
3. place the wood in the fifi replace without excessively
squashing it in. Position a fifi relighter between the
wood logs and light. Never user materials such as
petrol, alcohol and similar to switch on.
4. At this point, close the door and monitor it for a few
minutes. If the fifi re should extinguish, slowly open the
door, re-position another fifi relighter between the logs
and light again.
Lighting a hot fireplace
When should wood be added? When the fuel is
almost completely consumed to embers. With the
glove supplied, slowly open (to avoid formation of
vortexes that can cause smoke to exit) the door.
Add the desired wood to the fifi replace, locating it on
the existing embers (within the quality limits indicated
in the technical table).
Product functioning changes with the chimney flue
draft and adjustment of the air valve in combustion.
Functioning with initial low draft
To extract air for combustion and discharge the
smoke, the fifi replace needs a draft to be exerted on
the chimney flflue.
If the draft is weak, initially light a “starter” fifi re using
small sized lighting material.
Once the correct draft is restored, you can add the fuel.
As with all the products, the wood product heats and
cools during the various phases. This would lead to
normal dilation. Such dilation can cause slight settling
noise, which is not a reason for dispute.
USER INSTRUCTIONS
FUEL
The product was designed to burn wooden logs or
sawdust briquettes.
Use dry wood logs (max. humidity 20%)Use logs The
use of damp wood would cause the product and the
flue to get dirty, the risk of smoke and a lower yield
than that declared.Each type of wood has different
characteristics that also influence combustion yield.
The data outlined on this manual are with wood used
during certifi cation.
In general wood can have a heat of combustion up to
4.5 kWh/kg while cut fresh it has heat of combustion
around 2 kWh/kg
In general, beech or elm is recommended, or however
class A1 wood according to UNI EN ISO 17225-5
Attention to prolonged use of wood with aromatic oils
(e.g. eucalyptus). Cast iron parts can deteriorate
Use the recommended quantities of wood:
Overloading causes overheating, resulting in damage:
• possible deformation of the inner parts;
• possible irreversible changes to the colour of the
paint on the metal parts for which Edilkamin or the
retailer cannot be held liable.
To respect the environment and safety, do NOT burn,
among other things: plastic, varnished wood, coal and
bark waste.
Do not use the product as an incinerator.
Use of these fuels also nullifi es the guarantee.
First switch on phases
• Ensure you have read and understood the content
of this manual
• Remove all the inflfl ammable parts from the
product (manuals, labels, etc.). In particular
remove any labels from the glass. If they melt, they
would irreversibly damage the glass.
For initial switch on of the fifi replace, always use the
smallest logs. Use larger wooden logs to raise the fifi
re.
Always locate the wood deep in the fifi replace, al-
most in contact with the rear wall, so that even if they
slide they won’t come in contact with the glass.
There may be a slight smell of paint the fi rst few
times it is ignited, however, this will disappear quickly.
