PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
The stove produces hot air using wood pellets as fuel, with
electronically controlled combustion.
Hereunder is the explanation of its functions (the letters refer to
• gure 1).
The fuel (pellets) is taken from the hopper (A) and, using a
screw (B) operated by a gear motor (C), is sent to the crucible
(D).
The pellets are lit by hot air produced by an electrical element
(E) sucked into the crucible through a smoke extractor fan (F).
The smoke produced by combustion is extracted from the
combustion chamber by the same fan (F) and expelled from the
vent (G) which can be connected to the back, the left side or
the top of the stove (see page 28).
The Point plus stove is designed to distribute hot hair to the
room where it is installed and even to another room.
In order to channel hot air to another room, it is necessary to
use the following optional kits (more details on page 30-31).
- KIT 12 for distributing hot air to an adjacent room
- KIT 12 BIS for distributing hot air to a remote room
The combustion chamber, with base and ceiling in Vermiculite,
closed at the front by a door in ceramic glass (special “cold-
hand” handle to open the door).
The quantity of fuel, the extraction of the smoke and the input
of air for combustion are regulated by a motherboard equipped
with software, to obtain a high combustion yield and low emis-
sions.
The stove has a serial socket for optional wire connection (code
640560) to remote controlled ignition devices (chrono-thermo-
stats etc.).
The ceramic outer casing is available in three colour variants:
cream, burgundy and grey.

SAFETY INFORMATION
The stove is designed to heat, through automatic pellet com-
bustion in the hearth, the room where it is installed, both by
radiation and the air that comes out of the front grille (I).
• The appliance is not designed to be used by people, including
children, with reduced physical, sensorial or mental abilities.
Children must be supervised to ensure they do not play with
the appliance.
• The main risks that may derive from using the stove pertain
to non-compliance with installation instructions, direct contact
with live electrical parts (internal), contact with the • re or hot
parts (glass, pipes, hot air output), when extraneous substances
or non-recommended fuel are introduced, or due to incorrect
maintenance or by repeatedly pressing the ignition button wi-
thout having emptied the crucible.
• Only use certi• ed, high quality, 6 mm diameter wooden
pellets for fuel.
• Should components fail, the stoves are equipped with safety
devices that guarantee automatic shutdown. These are activated
without any intervention required.
• In order to function correctly, the stove must be installed in
accordance with the instructions given herein and the door
must not be opened during operation: combustion is fully
automatic and requires no intervention.
• Under no circumstances should any foreign substances be
entered into the hearth or hopper.
• Do not use ! ammable products to clean the smoke channel
(the ! ue section connecting the stove smoke outlet to the
chimney ! ue).
• The hearth and hopper parts must only be cleaned when
COLD.
• The glass can be cleaned when COLD with a suitable product
(e.g. GlassKamin Edilkamin) and a cloth.
• Avoid opening the door of the combustion chamber when the
stove is hot; wait until it has cooled down naturally.
• The stove must not function if the door is open, if the glass is
broken or if the pellet-loading port is open.
• It must not be used as a step ladder or a base on which to rest
any object.
• Do not lay laundry directly on the stove to dry. Any clothes
horse or similar must be placed at a safe distance from the
stove (danger of • re).
• Make sure the stove is installed and ignited the • rst time by
Edilkamin-quali• ed CAT personnel (technical assistance centre)
in accordance with the instructions provided here within; this is
an essential requirement for the validation of the guarantee.
• When the stove is in operation, the exhaust pipes and door
become very hot (do not touch without wearing the thermal
glove).
• Do not place anything, which is not heat resistant near the
stove.
• NEVER use liquid fuel to ignite the stove or rekindle the embers.
• Do not obstruct the ventilation apertures in the room where
the stove is installed, nor the air inlets of the stove itself.
• Do not wet the stove and do not go near electrical parts
with wet hands.
• Do not use reducers on the smoke exhaust pipes.
• The stove must be installed in a room that is suitable for • re
prevention and equipped with all that is required (power and air
supply and outlets) for the stove to function correctly and safely.
• If it is necessary to clean the " ue please remove the heart
vermiculite stove removing the ! ns.
• SHOULD IGNITION FAIL, DO NOT RE-IGNITE UNTIL
YOU HAVE EMPTIED THE COMBUSTION CHAMBER.
