ATTENTION

SURFACES CAN BECOME VERY HOT!

ALWAYS USE PROTECTIVE GLOVES!

During combustion, thermal energy is released that significantly increases the heat of surfaces, doors, handles, controls, glass, exhaust pipes, and even the front of the appliance. Avoid contact with those elements if not wearing protective clothing (protective gloves included). Make sure children are aware of the danger and keep them away from the stove during operation.

The majolicas are top quality artisan products and as such can have micro-dots, crackles and chromatic imperfections. These features highlight their valuable nature. Due to their different dilation coefficient, they produce crackling, which demonstrate their effective authenticity. To clean the majolicas, it is recommended to use a soft, dry cloth. If a detergent or liquid is used, the latter could penetrate inside the crackles, highlighting them.

Routine Maintenance

Based on Decree 22 January 2008 n°37 art.2, routine maintenance means interventions aimed at reducing degradation due to normal use, as well as dealing with accidental events entailing the need of first interventions, which however do not modify the structure of the system upon which one is intervening or its intended use according to the requirements laid down by the technical standards in force and by the manufacturer's use and maintenance manual.

Pellets and feeding

Pellets are made by applying high pressure to sawdust, or wood waste products (not containing paint) from sawmills, carpentry and other activities related to processing and working with wood. Given that it does not use any glue to hold it together this type of fuel is completely environmentally friendly. In fact the compactness of the pellets over time is guaranteed by a natural substance found in the wood itself: wood coal. In addition to being an environmentally friendly fuel in that it pushes wood residues to the limits pellets also have technical advantages. While wood has a calorific value of 4.4kWh/kg. (with 15% humidity after around 18 months of seasoning) the calorific value of pellets is 5 kWh/ kg. Pellet density is 650kg/m3 and the water content is equal to 8% of its weight. For this reason they do not require seasoning in order to arrive at a sufficiently adequate degree of heat yield.

The pellets used must comply with the characteristics described by the following standards:

EN plus - UNI EN 14961 - 2 (UNI EN ISO 17225-2) class a1 - a2

The manufacturer always recommended using pellets with a diameter of 6 mm with its products.

pellet STORAGE

In order to ensure problem-free combustion pellets must be stored in a dry place.

Open the tank lid and load the pellets using a scoop.

THE USE OF EXPIRED PELLETS OR ANY OTHER MATERIAL WILL AFFECT THE FUNCTIONALITY OF YOUR GENERATOR AND MAY LEAD TO THE TERMINATION OF THE WARRANTY AND CESSATION OF ANY ACCOMPANYING RESPONSIBILITY ON THE PART OF THE MANUFACTURER

HOT AIR DUCTING

The pipe destined for ducting the hot air must have an internal diameter of 80 mm, be insulated and protected from heat loss.The length must not exceed 6 metres.

Installation of the pipes used for ducting the hot air must be performed by qualified staff and/or the manufacturer's technical aftersales assistance.

GIUSY PLUS

viviana plus

The ducting extension is found in the accessory pack inside the stove. It is

mounted by means of the 4 supplied screws.

For this product it is mandatory to duct the hot air. It is not possible to deactivate the ducting motor. Do not cover or close ducting!

Additional thermostat functioning for ducting motor control

For models with ducting motor there is also the possibility of thermostatting the motor itself. The connection of an external thermostat will allow to control the ducting motor independently from stove functioning.

At this point just set the desired temperature on the thermostat. The thermostat will control the functioning of the second motor:

with temperature to be reached (closed contact) the second motor will follow the trend of the stove.

when the temperature has been reached (open contact), it takes the ducting motor to 1st speed and will be displayed by the flashing LED relative to the ducting motor.

The ducting thermostat clamp is fitted with jumper as per standard.
