1 Important information for stove operators

The information in these user instructions is of a general nature. National and European standards,

local and building regulations, as well as fire marshal provisions, must be complied with.

These user instructions must be attentively read prior to setting up and using the wood stove, and

before any intervention in it. Keep the user instructions carefully stored and ensure that they are
always available next to or near the wood stove.

Compliance with the rules contained herein ensures personal and material safety, economical
operation and a long service life.

For the planning and construction of the wood stove, all

standards and directives

under Item 8. Declaration of Conformity have been taken into

account.

No components may be modified or replaced by other parts which are not original equipment

manufacturer parts, otherwise the guarantee coverage and usage approval shall be rendered null and
void.

Disconnect the power supply to the wood stove prior to any intervention.

Schematics and drawings delivered along with the stove only serve as demonstrative examples; the

manufacturer pursues a policy of continuous development and updating of the product and may
undertake changes at any time without prior notification.

All dimensions stated in these user instructions are in mm.

CAUTION: The equipment may only be commissioned by specialists trained by the manufacturer.

Your heating unit is not suited for use as a ladder or support stand.

Please note that the surfaces of the pellet stove heat up substantially during operation. Always wear
protective gloves when using the pellet stove. Inform children as to the danger and keep them away

from the fire chamber during operation.

Only use pellets as described under Item 2. Fuel.

Placing non-heat-resistant objects on the heating unit or in its vicinity is prohibited.

Do not place any laundry items on the stove to dry. Laundry racks or the like must be kept at a
sufficient distance from the heating unit  fire hazard!

It is prohibited to handle highly flammable and explosive substances in the same or adjacent rooms
when operating the heating unit.

It must be ensured that adequate combustion air intake and safe exhaust of the fumes is provided for.

Therefore you should always check whether there is any blockage in the chimney, especially after a
lengthier operational interruption.

The convection grid may never be closed, not even partially.

Venting devices which are operated in the same room or room cluster along with the fire chamber can
cause problems.

The pellet stove must, depending on the degree of filth, be regularly cleaned (see Item 7. Cleaning,

13.5 Flue gas duct cleaning and 13.6 Filter replacement).

Repairs to your pellet stove may only be performed by specialists trained by the manufacturer.

Have parts replaced as necessary and depending on the condition.

Regularly check the

electrical and electronic elements for damage, wear and tear

(see also Item 11.2

Electrical and electronic elements).

Safety devices may not be bypassed.

2 Fuel

Pellets are a fuel produced by compressing sawdust from untreated wood, i.e. without any coating, glue
or the like.
The varying quality of pellets also causes different "crusting" in the burner bowl and on the grate of the
wood stove. With regard to this, it is recommended to use pellets that do not contain an artificial binder
and which leave the least amount of unburned residue possible. The stove has been tested with pellets
as per ÖN (Austrian Standards Institute) EN 14961-2 and ENplus.

NOTES:

Using low-quality pellets or other material damages the functions of your wood stove and

can void the guarantee and the associated manufacturer's responsibility.

The equipment also requires a few burner cycles until the control unit has optimally

adapted to its ambient conditions.
