OPERATING SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
PLEASE READ THIS!
a. Hot while in operation. Keep children, clothing, and furniture away. Contact may cause skin burns.
b. If you notice a smoldering re (burnpot full but no visible ame) AND a heavy smoke buildup in rebox, immediately TURN OFF the
stove, but DO NOT unplug it. Do not open the door, change the damper setting or tamper with any controls on the stove. Wait until rebox
clears, and blowers shut down, do as instructed in “PRE-START-UP CHECK” and “BUILDING A FIRE”, then attempt to restart the re. If the
problem persists contact your dealer.
c. WARNING: DO NOT ADD PELLETS TO THE BURNPOT BY HAND AT ANY TIME, A DANGEROUS CONDITION COULD RESULT.
d. Attempts to achieve heat output rates that exceed heater design speci cations can result in permanent damage to the heater.
e. WARNING: DURING THE START UP CYCLE; 1) DO NOT OPEN THE VIEWING DOOR; 2) DO NOT OPEN THE DAMPER MORE
THAN ¼”; 3) DO NOT USE THE FUEL FEED BUTTON (UNLESS PRIMING THE AUGER AFTER RUNNING OUT OF PELLETS). A DAN-
GEROUS CONDITION COULD RESULT.
f. Pellets should be stored in a dry place. e pellets should not be stored within 12” of the stove.
g. DO NOT STORE OR USE FLAMMABLE LIQUIDS, ESPECIALLY GASOLINE, IN THE VICINITY OF YOUR BRECKWELL STOVE.
NEVER USE A GAS OR PROPANE TORCH, GASOLINE, GASOLINE-TYPE LANTERN FUEL, KEROSENE, CHARCOAL LIGHTER
FLUID OR SIMILAR FLUIDS TO START OR “FRESHEN UP” A FIRE IN THIS HEATER.
h. WARNING: DO NOT OVERFIRE THIS STOVE. is may cause serious damage to your stove and void your warranty. It also may create a
re hazard in your home. IF ANY EXTERNAL PART OF THE UNIT BEGINS TO GLOW, YOU ARE OVERFIRING. Immediately press the
“POWER” switch on the control panel.
i. KEEP ALL LOOSE OR MOVEABLE HOUSEHOLD COMBUSTIBLES, SUCH AS FURNITURE, DRAPES, TOYS, ETC. AT LEAST THREE
FEET FROM THE OPERATING STOVE.
j. Maintain proper ventilation. It is important that adequate oxygen be supplied to the re for the combustion process. Modern houses are o en so
well insulated that it may become necessary to open a window slightly or install an outside air vent to provide su cient combustion air.
k. Since heating with a solid fuel is potentially hazardous, even with a well made and thoroughly tested stove, it would be wise to install strategically
placed smoke detectors and have a re extinguisher in a convenient location, near an exit.
l. Do not open stove door when operating unless necessary. is will create a dirty, ine cient burn and could allow smoke spillage or sparks to
escape.
m. Do not permit operation by young children or those unfamiliar with stove’s operation.
n. Do not service or clean this appliance without disconnecting the power cord.
o. Do not abuse the door glass by striking, slamming or similar trauma. Do not operate the stove with the glass removed, cracked or broken.
p. If the stove is installed in a room without air conditioning, or in an area where direct sunlight can shine on the unit, it is possible this can cause
the temperature of the stove to rise to operational levels; one of the sensors could then make the stove start on its own. It is recommended that the
stove be unplugged when not in use for extended amounts of time (i.e. during the summer months).
