• BREAKDOWN OF THE FUEL LOADING MOTOR
If the geared motor stops, the stove keeps on working (only the smoke extractor) until the minimum working smoke temperature goes down
and stops.
• TEMPORAL POWER LOSS
After a short power loss, the equipment will restart automatically. However in the event of a lack of electricity the stove may give off a small
amount of smoke inside the room for a period of approximately 3-5 minutes. THIS DOES NOT ENTAIL ANY HEALTH RISK. This is a reason
why Bronpi advises, whenever possible, to connect the primary air inlet pipe to the exterior of the house in order to assure that the stove does
not give off smokes after a short power loss.
• ELECTRICAL PROTECTION
The stove is protected against abrupt electricity oscillations through a general fuse placed in the back part. (4A250V
Retarded) (see drawing D1)
• SMOKE OUTLET PROTECTION
The electronic pressure switch blocks the operation of the stove in the event of an abrupt change of the pressure inside the
combustion chamber (door opening, breakdown of the smoke extraction motor, smoke returns, etc). If this happens, the
machine will go into an alarm state (see drawing D2).
• PROTECTION IN THE EVENT OF HIGH TEMPERATURE OF PELLET (80ºC)
In the event of overheating of the internal part of the tank, this device blocks the operation of the machine. The restart
needs to be done manually by an authorised technician (see drawing D3).
The restoration of the 80ºC safety device is not included in the warranty unless the technical assistance centre can
demonstrate a faulty component.

INSTALLATION STANDARDS

The way of installing the stove will affect the safety and the proper operation. For this reason, it is essential that the
installation is carried out by people who are qualified and informed about the compliance with the
installation and safety norms.
If your equipment is not properly installed, it may cause serious damage.
Before the installation, follow the next series of checks:
• Make sure that the floor can sustain the weight of the equipment and make a proper isolation in
the case that it is made of flammable material (wood) or a material that can be affected by a thermal shock (plaster cast, for example).
• If the equipment is installed on a floor which is not completely refractory or inflammable such as parquet, carpet, etc, it is necessary to
replace this part or introduce a fire-resistant base so that it protrudes out the oven 30 cm. Example of materials include steel flooring,
glass base or any other type of fire-resistant material.
• Make sure that there is proper ventilation in the place where it is installed (air intake).
• Avoid the installation in places where there are collective ventilation pipes, hoods with or without extractor, B type gas equipments,
heat pumps or equipments that can cause that the draw is not good if they are used at the same time.
• Make sure that the smoke duct and the pipes used for the stove are suitable for the operation of the insert.
• Make sure that every equipment has their own smoke duct. Do not use the same duct for several equipments.
We recommend that you call your fitter in order to check both the chimney as well as the air flow for the combustion.

SAFETY MEASURES

During the installation of the equipment, there are risks to be taken into account, so you should follow the next safety measures:
a. Keep any flammable or heat sensitive materials (furniture, curtains, and clothing) at a minimum distance of about 150cm.
b. If the equipment is installed on a floor which is not completely refractory or inflammable it is necessary to replace this part or introduce
a fire-resistant base.
c. Do not place the stove near combustible walls or likely to be
affected by a thermal shock.
d. The stove should only be used when the ash pan is inserted and
the door closed.
e. It is recommended to install carbon monoxide detector (CO) in the
room where the equipment is installed.
f. If you need a longer wire than the provided use it always with an
earthed plug.
g. Do not install the stove in a bedroom.
h. The appliance should never be turned on in the presence of
emission of gases or vapours (e.g., linoleum glue, gasoline, etc). Do
not place nearby flammable materials.
i. Solid combustion residues (ashes) should be collected in an airtight
container and resistant to fire.
It is necessary to keep a safe distance when they are installed in
spaces where materials are susceptible of being flammables, either the
constructions materials or different materials that surround the stove (see
drawing D4).
