RECAUTIONS

 

 

o  Do not operate the heater if you smell smoke coming from the heater. Push the “OFF” Touch pad,   

      monitor your heater, and call your dealer.  
 
o  Never use gasoline, gasoline-type lantern fuel, kerosene, charcoal lighter fluid, or similar liquids to start or     

’freshen up’ a fire in this heater. Keep all such liquids well away from the heater while it is in use.  

o  Don’t unplug the heater if you suspect a malfunction. Push the “OFF” Touch pad and inspect the heater.  

o  Do not operate the heater if the flame becomes dark & sooty or if the firepot overfills with pellets. Push the  

”OFF” Touch pad and periodically inspect the heater (see ”Operating Your Stove”).  

o  Never try to repair or replace any part of the heater unless instructions for consumer are given in this manual.  

All other work should be done by a trained technician. 

o  The viewing door and ash pan must be closed and latched during operation.  

o  Never block free airflow through the open vents of the unit.  

o  Contact your local building officials to obtain a permit and information on any installation restrictions or  

inspection requirements in your area. Notify your insurance company of this heater as well.  

o  The pellet appliance exhaust system works with negative combustion chamber pressure and a slightly 

positive chimney pressure, therefore the exhaust system must be completely airtight and properly installed. 
All pellet vent joints must be sealed with HI-TEMP RTV silicone sealant and at least 3 sheet metal screws, to 
each other as well as to the heater. 

o  This unit must be properly installed to prevent the possibility of a house fire. The instructions must be strictly 

adhered to. Do not use makeshift methods, which may compromise the installation.  

o  Your heater requires periodic maintenance and cleaning (see ”Operating Your Stove”). Failure to maintain  

your heater may lead to smoke spillage in your home.  

o  Allow the heater to cool before carrying out any maintenance or cleaning. Ashes must be disposed in a metal 

container with a tight fitting lid. The closed container of ashes should be placed on a non-combustible surface 
or on the ground, well away from all combustible materials, pending final disposal.   

o  This heater is designed and approved for pelletized wood fuel only. Any other type of fuel burned in this 

heater will void the warranty and safety listing.  

o  The heater will not operate during a power outage. If a power outage does occur, check the

 

heater for smoke 

spillage and open a window if any smoke spills into the room. 

o  Keep foreign objects out of the hopper.
