If the Galio Corten/Black Automatic is not in use for a longer period of time (e.g. winter time), we advise you
to store it inside.
Corrosion of the coating of the base of Galio Corten is a natural process resulting from the characteristics of
the Corten steel which the fireplace is made of. It is an additional protective layer of the appliance against the negative influence of unfavorable weather conditions.
Other parts of the Galio Corten/Black Automatic fireplace are made of stain resistant material.

needs to await until the heavy wind passes.
In case of noticing any sort of gas leaks the fireplace as well as the main valve of the gas cylinder need to be
turned off.
After use turn off the gas cylinder valve.

2.1 Safety instruction regarding the use of the gas cylinders.

Use only the type of gas and pressure specified by the manufacturer.
The gas cylinders should always be placed in a vertical position – during use and transport.
Always store the gas cylinder in an easily accessible place to allow its immediate turn-off.
During the installation process do not allow an open flame or any ignited object to reach the gas cylinder.
The gas cylinder should be in a distance not shorter than 1,5 metres away from the Galio Corten/Black
Automatic fireplace.
Leaks should be found with the use of a cleaning liquid and water. If bubbles form on the surface that means
that a there’s an existing leak.
Always use a pressure regulator between the gas bottle and the device. Replace the pressure regulator every
5 years. The allowed pressures are: 30mbar, 37mbar (recommended), 50 mbar. Use only regulators complying with the European EN16129 Norm.
Use only approved and certified gas connection linkage. Replace the linkage every 2 years.
The elastic linkage connecting gas to the fireplace is to be led away from sharp edges and hot surfaces. Refrain
from bends and twists of the elastic connection on its full length.
Remember that the LPG bottle should be stored in a well-ventilated place. LPG gas is heavier than air and its
accumulation near the bottom surface may generate an explosive mixture.
The housing in which the LPG bottle is (optionally) placed needs to have an appropriate ventilation. The
housing needs to have an upper ventilation slot above the top of the bottle (of an area min 1/100 of the area of the base of the housing) and a lower ventilation slot (of an area min 1/50 of the area of the base of the housing).
