Prolonged pressing of button 3 (On/Off) on the remote control or of button 1 (On/Off) on the support panel allows for
switching the appliance on.
The ignition cycle can last maximum 20–25 minutes and is divided into five steps:
Phase
Display wording
Meaning
Duration
1
CHECK UP
Brazier cleaning cycle
Roughly 30
seconds
2
LOAD PELLET
Pre-loading of the brazier with pellets (continuous pellet loading) to fill the brazier
sufficiently to allow correct ignition
Roughly 4 minutes
3
FIRE WAIT
Stand-by for flame ignition after pre-loading (pellet loading suspended)
Roughly 4 minutes
4
FIRE WAIT / LOAD
PELLET
Loading of pellets into brazier (intermittent pellet loading)
Not ascertainable
5
FLAME LIGHT
Flame stabilisation to allow uniform ignition of all pellets that were not burned in the
previous phases
Roughly 8 minutes
At the end of the ignition cycle, the appliance enters the work mode at the power set under “SET OUTPUT”.
If the ignition fails, the display will show the
“FAILED IGNITION”
alarm.
The alarm may also occur if the brazier is dirty; in this case, clean the brazier and restart the appliance.
Warning: during the ignition phase and normal operation of the appliance, keep at a safe distance from the latter
and do not stand in front of it.
Work mode
During the normal work phase, pressing button 1 (Increase) allows for setting the
“SET ROOM”
(room temperature set-
point) at which the appliance enters the
“MODULATION”
economy mode, provided that all the other room thermostats or
probes (if any) have been fulfilled
(also refer to
“Connection to the room thermostat or to a supplementary room probe”
).
-
With “Menu 01-STAND-BY” enabled, the appliance switches off automatically by entering the “OK ST-BY” status after
the time set in Pr44
(default setting 10 minutes)
; after the switch-off phase, it will switch back on automatically if the
room temperature falls below the temperature delta set at Pr43 (
default setting 1°C)
, or room temperature < (
“SET
ROOM”
– Pr43).
-
With “Menu 01-STAND-BY” not enabled, the appliance enters the “MODULATION” mode once the set room
temperature is reached, but will not switch off automatically.
If the above condition occurs when the switch-off cycle is not yet completed, please wait until the cycle terminates.
The brazier cleaning cycle (indicated in the display by
“CLEANING FIRE
-
POT”
) is done at pre-defined time intervals for a
pre-defined duration
(see “
PCB parameters”
)
.
Switch-off cycle
Pressing button 3 (On/Off) on the remote control or button 1 (On/Off) on the support panel switches the appliance off. The
display will show
“FINAL CLEANING”
. Pellet loading stops and the flue gas extractor speed increases to maximum and
then switches off once the appliance has cooled, with
“OFF”
appearing on the display. In addition, during this phase the
brazier is cleaned and emptied.
Modifying the main room temperature set-point
-
To modify the room temperature, simply select
“SET ROOM”
by pressing button 1 (Increase).
-
Press buttons 1 and 2 (Increase and Decrease) to modify the value and confirm with button 4 (Set) or 5 (Esc); it is
possible to set a value between 7°C and 40°C.
