PROBLEMS, ALARMS, USEFUL TIPS
Useful info…
Listed below is some important information regarding the appliance:
- It is normal for the appliance to emit a smell of paint during its first few days of operation. We recommend properly
ventilating the installation room during the initial start-up. For the first few days of operation we also recommend that
you set the appliance to near-maximum level.
- The boiler unit is treated with anti-oxidant paint in order to protect it against oxidation in the event of long periods of
inactivity. After initial start-up, this paint no longer preserves its original features and any wear of the paint inside the
combustion chamber should not be regarded as a manufacturing fault.
- Do not clean with water inside the combustion chamber; any oxidation of the combustion chamber after a long period
of inactivity is not to be considered as a manufacturing fault.
- Any perceived noise during operation may be caused by the expansion settling of the plates that make up the boiler
unit. These noises are accentuated especially during ignition and switching off phases of the appliance and are not to
be considered a manufacturing fault.
- If ignition fails, empty the pellets out of the brazier; only then can you reignite the appliance in order to avoid
gasification and consequent “explosion” during ignition which could lead to the breakage of the door glass.
- The appliance works exclusively with wooden pellets; do not burn different fuels.
- The appliance can work only if connected to the heating system and with water inside the boiler unit. Do not start the
appliance for any reason if a plumbing connection in compliance with current regulations has not been done and if
you have not filled the entire boiler unit and system with water in order not to compromise its life.
- The noise heard during the ignition and switching off stage is due to the automatic cleaning of the brazier.
- The noise level of the appliance is emphasised if the pellet container is empty. Therefore we recommend that you
always keep the pellet level to at least half tank.
- If there is soot and fine particulate in the room where the appliance is installed, check the seal on the flue gas pipes
and the filter of the ash vacuum device used for cleaning.
- In the event of overheating, the appliance will switch off when it reaches 85°C.
What happens if…
…the pellets do not ignite
If the ignition fails, the display will show the alarm message “NO IGNIT ALARM”.
Cancel the alarm and reset the appliance to standard condition by pressing button 4 for a few seconds.
If ignition fails, empty the pellets out of the brazier; to avoid gasification, the appliance can only be re-ignited
after having emptied the un-burnt pellets.
...the combustion chamber door is open or not properly closed
If the door is left open or not properly closed, the pellet loading will not start, therefore the appliance will not switch itself
on. If the door is opened during normal operation, the appliance switches to “THERMAL SAFETY” alarm.
...the flue pipe is dirty, blocked or not correctly installed
If the flue is dirty, blocked or incorrectly manufactured, pellet loading will not start, thus the appliance will not switch itself
on. If the flue is obstructed during normal operation, the appliance activates the “DEPRESS.-FAILURE” alarm.
...the appliance is overheated
If the water in the boiler body is overheated (>94°C), the pellet will not be loaded because the manual reset thermostat
cuts in. If this happens during normal operation, the appliance switches to “THERMAL SAFETY” alarm. It is therefore
necessary to reset the “manual reset thermostat” (see “Components of the appliance”) before switching the appliance on
again. To reset, it is necessary to remove the black cap and press the button below.
...lack of power (blackout)
If a power blackout occurs for a shorter time than Pr48, when power is restored, the appliance will immediately re-start in
the working mode (recovering the set working power).
