1.3 Safety rules.
-
Read the use and maintenance manual before installing, lighting and servicing the stove.
Installation, the electrical connection, testing and maintenance must be carried out by a qualified
-
and/or authorised technician.
-
Connect the stove to an approved flue by means of an inspectionable terminal;
several units can be connected only if allowed by the local regulations and by the flue inspection Body.
Connect the stove to the suction system by means of a pipe or air inlet from outside.
-
Connect the stove to an approved 230 V-50 Hz electrical socket.
-
-
Make sure the electrical system and the sockets are suitable for the maximum absorption
of the unit, specified on the label and in this manual.
-
The stove must be unplugged and cold before carrying out any maintenance.
Do not use flammable liquids or substances to light the stove or rekindle the flame: when the stove
-
is lit, pellet ignition is automatic.
The pellet stove must only be fed with wood pellets having the
-
characteristics described in this manual.
-
The stove must not be used as an incinerator.
Never block the combustion air inlet and fume outlet openings.

-
Clean the brazier regularly every time the stove is lit or whenever reloading pellets.
Have the duct and smoke baffles inside the combustion chamber cleaned regularly by qualified personnel.

Avoid the creation of smoke and unburnt products during lighting and/or normal
operation; an excessive accumulation of unburnt pellets in the brazier must be eliminated
manually before carrying out relighting.
Warn children and guests about the hazards described above.
-
-
In case of operating problems, the stove can be relit only after eliminating the
cause of the problem.
-
Any tampering and/or unauthorised replacements with non-original parts of the stove can create a risk for the
