2.5.3. Ducts for kit VF 480-620 m3/h

If the fireplace stove is installed with forced ventilation, i.e. using a fan of 480 or 620 m

for proper air circulation in the room, it is advisable to connect one of the two ducts to the exterior of the home, creating an air intake of 150 cm² the room where the fireplace stove is installed (also of 150 cm²

This mode allows a proper mix of the air in the room of installation and better cooling of the structure of the fireplace stove.

If you cannot make this kind of connection, you will still need to connect both ducts, whether they are both directed to the exterior or the interior. Depending on the selection, you will have operating temperatures that are slightly above or below average but which do not compromise proper operation of the product.

/h, place air intakes and ducts as follows:

, in order to draw in clean, fresh air; place the other in

ALWAYS

CONNECT THE TWO DUCTS AND RUN THEM

OUTSIDE THE CLADDING OF THE FIREPLACE STOVE. IF THIS DIRECTIVE IS NOT OBSERVED, THE FAN,

INSTALLATION AND USE MANUAL

2.5.4. Ducts for kit VF 180 m3/h (Airsystem B70)

Differently from the kit VF 480-620 m3/h, the kit VF 180 m3/h does not require ducts, since the lower power of the fans and their position

with respect to the fireplace stove allow proper operation of the system provided a considerable quantity of air is provided under the unit.

Considering that this type of fireplace is normally set in an internal wall of the home and it is almost never possible to provide ducts to the outside of the home as with the previously described model, the ventilation air must all be drawn from the room of installation, using the air intakes on each side of the cladding

It is necessary to provide two air intakes with a net minimum section

of 150 cm

exchange of oxygen under the fireplace stove

on both sides of the cladding that allow a continuous

(figure 9).

If the air intakes are not sufficient, the fans will also draw the air required for combustion, and this will compromise proper operation of the product.

It is advisable to use two grilles of at least 20x10 cm

Remember that:

• All of the air intakes must be equipped with shutters than can be controlled from the outside and that are equipped with insect protection.

• The air intake section is considered net, therefore the area of any obstructions must be considered (mesh, etc.)

• The filters or meshes need to be cleaned periodically to ensure air can pass through them.

• Do not for any reason obstruct the air intakes if the fireplace stove or ventilation kit is in operation

3. OPERATION OF CONTROL UNIT FC 715

The device allows the speed of the fan which is under the user's control by means of the radio remote control, to be regulated in one of two modes:

MANUAL The fan (5) runs at the selected speed independently

of the Sensor.

AUTOMATIC The fan (5) runs at the selected speed with the

permission of the sensor.

3.1. RADIO REMOTE CONTROL

The radio remote control has 4 push buttons that can be used to carry out the following operations

• On/off (blue key)

• Change operating mode from manual to automatic and vice

versa (red key)

• Variation of the 4 speeds of the fan (yellow keys)

Chapter 5

page

3.1.1. Turning on and off

TURNING ON: Press and hold the blue ON/OFF button of the radio

remote control to turn the fan on at the first speed in MANUAL mode. The control unit emits a short beep that identifies 1

speed in manual mode.

TURNING OFF: Press and hold the blue ON/OFF button of the radio

remote control to place the device in STAND-BY mode, which is signalled by a very long beep, and shut down the fan.

3.2. MANUAL MODE

By default, when turned on using the ON/OFF button, or simply by clicking the red MAN/AUT button, the system goes into MANUAL mode. This mode can be recognized by the fact that all of the sound

signals emitted by the control unit in this status are short beeps and the fan is always on regardless of the temperature.

The yellow + and - buttons are used to increase/decrease the speed of the fan from 1 number of short beeps that corresponds to the selected speed:

Regardless of whether the fireplace stove is on or not, the fan comes on, emitting air at the set speed.

1st speed= 1 short BEEP

speed= 2 short BEEPS

speed= 3 short BEEPS

speed= 4 short BEEPS

INSTALLATION AND USE MANUAL

3.3. AUTOMATIC MODE

Once ventilation is turned on in manual mode, by pressing the red MAN/AUT of the radio remote control, the device goes to AUTOMATIC mode. The mode can be recognized by the fact that all the sound

signals emitted by the control unit in this status are long beeps.

The yellow + and - buttons are used to increase/decrease the speed of the fan from 1 number of short beeps that corresponds to the selected speed:

Ventilation is turned on and off exclusively by the temperature of the thermostatic probe.

AUTOMATIC START BY MEANS OF THE PROBE:

If the temperature detected by the probe is greater than 45°C, the fan comes on at the set speed (1 that performs a countdown starting from 40 minutes. This period of 40 minutes is called the “

After 40 minutes, if the temperature of the probe exceeds 65°C, it means that the internal temperature is rising because the fireplace stove is coming up to operating power, and therefore the fan must stay on. After 40 minutes, if the probe does not reach 65°C, it means that the power of the fire is low and the ventilation must be shut off.

If the user changes the speed while the system is between 45°C and 65°C, this is interpreted as a request for ventilation. The system goes back to the countdown begins.

AUTOMATIC SHUTDOWN BY MEANS OF PROBE:

If the temperature probe drops below 65°C, ventilation is shut off.

3.4. OTHER FUNCTIONS OF THE CONTROL UNIT FC 715

STAND-BY: The fan is off because the blue ON/OFF button of the

radio remote control has been pressed. Shutdown is signalled by a long beep.

SAFETY: In STAND-BY status, if the temperature exceeds 150°C, the fan comes on at speed 1 and the system goes into AUTOMATIC mode. Ventilation continues until the temperature drops below 65°C.

STATUS RECOVERY: the system automatically saves, in non-volatile memory, the last power setting made by the user, allowing continuation at the speed after a power outage.

3.4.1. Setting transmission code of the radio remote control

The radio remote control and the control unit are set with a neutral code that makes it possible to check operation of the ventilation kit immediately, before the cladding is completely installed.

INSTALLATION AND USE MANUAL

It may however be necessary to change this code, and as a result the transmission frequency, if another fireplace stove is located nearby (e.g. if your neighbour has one) or if other signals interfere with transmission.

The code can be personalized as follows:

• Unplug the control unit

• Open the battery compartment of the radio remote control by

moving the cover in the direction of the arrow

(Figure 20)

• Raise any one, or more than one, of the 10 white keys as shown in the example in

figure 21.

• Close the radio remote control

• Press and hold the red key of the radio remote control, and at

the same time plug it back in.

• After a maximum of 15 seconds, a prolonged beep or a series of beeps in sequence confirm that the radio remote control has been connected to the control unit with the new code.

4. MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

4.1. MAINTENANCE OF KIT VF

The maintenance of all electrical parts (fan, control unit, etc.) must only be carried out with no electrical power supplied and with the unit unplugged.

4.1.1. Electric fan

Periodically, and at least at the end of each winter, it is advisable to clean the fan blades, which may have suctioned up dust or other small foreign bodies due to the static pressure exercised by the fan along the air ducts.

Clean the fan blades only with compressed air or with a vacuum cleaner. Take care not to damage the rotor or the fan blades.

Do not use any sort of rigid device which might bend the blades. When rotating, bent blades will produce more noise than normal due to off-axis rotation of the fan.

Chapter 4

page

4.1.2. Control unit FC 715

Does not require any special maintenance if located as instructed in

chapter 4.9.3.

From time to time, you may want to check the condition

of the fuse near the plug that provides power to the control unit.

4.1.3. Radio remote control

On a yearly basis, it is advisable to replace the batteries of the radio remote control to ensure efficient transmission of the data to the control unit. Check that the red light in the upper left-hand corner of the radio remote control comes on when buttons are pressed.

If for any reason (electromagnetic fields, voltage surges, etc.) the remote control stops transmitting data, to change the frequency, recalibrate the frequency using the procedure in

, without necessarily moving the small switches located in the

4.11.6

chapter 4.10.4 or

battery compartment.
