NOTE regarding the fuel.
CHERIE - FUNNY - MOON - SPACE - VINTAGE is designed and programmed to burn wood pellets with 6 mm diameter.
Pellets are a type of fuel in the form of little cylinders, made from
compacted sawdust, compressed under high pressure with no adhesives or foreign materials. They are sold in bags of 15 kg.
For the stove to function properly, you MUST NOT burn anything else in it. Using other materials (including wood) will render
the warranty null and void. Such use is detected by laboratory analyses.
Edilkamin has designed, tested and programmed their stoves to guarantee the best performance when pellets with the following
characteristics are used:
diameter: 6 millimetres - maximum length: 40 mm - maximum moisture content: 8% - calorific value: at least 4300 kcal/kg.
If pellets with different characteristics are used, the stoves must be recalibrated – a similar procedure to that carried out by the
DEALER when the stove is ignited the first time.
Using unsuitable pellets may: decrease efficiency; cause malfunctions; stop the stove from functioning due to clogging, dirt on the
glass, unburnt fuel, etc.
A simple, visual analysis of the pellets may be carried out:
Good quality: smooth, uniform length, not very dusty.
Poor quality:
with longitudinal and transverse cracks, very dusty, various lengths and mixed with foreign matter.
Before igniting.
You must consult the Edilkamin DEALER in your area when
igniting the stove for the first time, in order for the stove to be
calibrated according to the type of pellets and installation con-
ditions, thereby validating the warranty.
There may be a slight smell of paint the first few times it is
ignited, however, this will disappear quickly.
Before igniting you must check:
==> that installation is correct
==> the power supply
==> that the door closes properly to a perfect seal
==> that the combustion chamber is clean
==> that the display is on standby (the date, power or
temperature flashes).
Filling the pellet hopper
The hopper lid opens and closes with a practical click-clack
system. Simply apply slight pressure to the front part of the
cast iron lid*. (fig. 3)
ATTENTION: use the glove supplied when filling the stove
whilst it is running and therefore is hot.
Loading the feed screw.
Should the pellet hopper empty completely the feed
screw must be filled. To do so, keep the + and – keys
pressed simultaneously for a few seconds (on the remote
control or synoptic panel). Once released, ‘REFILL’ will
appear on the display.
This must be carried out before ignition if the stove has
stopped due to the pellets having finished.
It is quite normal for some pellet residue to remain inside
the hopper, this is what the feed screw is unable to pick
up.
Once a month, fully vacuum the hopper to prevent dusty
residue from accumulating.
Automatic ignition
With the stove on standby, press the 0/1 button for 2
seconds (on the synoptic panel or remote control). This
will startup the ignition process, ‘Start’ will appear on the
display and a countdown will commence in seconds
(1020). There is no preset time for the ignition process:
its duration will be automatically shortened if the control
board detects that certain tests have been carried out
positively. The flame appears after about 5 minutes.
Manual ignition
At a temperature lower than 3 °C – too low for the elec-
trical resistance to become red hot - or if the resistance is
temporarily not working, you can use a firelighter to
ignite the stove.
Insert a well-lit firelighter into the combustion chamber,
close the door and press 0/1 on the synoptic panel or
remote control.
Operating modes
Manual: the user sets the desired operating power (from
a minimum of 1 to a maximum of 5)
Automatic: the user sets the temperature desired in the
room. The stove reads this and adjusts the power to reach
the set temperature. Once this is reached, it sets itself to
power 1.
