Manual mode
Your stove operates at a heating power preset by you.
The recommended output range is between 50 % and 100 %. If
you wish to select a lower heating output, keep pressing the minus
button for 2 seconds. Now you can set the heating output within the
range from 30 % to 50 %.
Tip
Running the stove at the recommended range from 50% to 100%
of the heating capacity will cause less sooting of the firebox and
the door glass.
Automatic mode
Your stove operates at the heating power preset by you during the
heating times, as saved. Outside the heating times your stove is in
the
STANDBY
operating state.
Tip
If you select the automatic mode although no heating times are
saved, the symbol “heating times” will be flashing.
Note
The stove may only be started in the
STANDBY
operating state. In
the operating state
STOVE OFF
it is not possible to start up the
stove.
Comfort mode
During the heating times, as saved, your stove keeps a nominal room
temperature preset by you.
Outside the heating times, it is possible to adjust a setback
temperature. If the room temperature drops below the adjusted
setback temperature, your stove will start outside the saved heating
times as well.
In this operating mode, heating times may be disabled as well. In this
case, your appliance will permanently heat the room to the nominal
temperature you set.
Note
The stove may only be started in the
STANDBY
operating state. In
the operating state
STOVE OFF
it is not possible to start up the
stove.
Note
The comfort mode may only be selected if a RIKA room sensor is
connected.
Heating up without electrical ignition
If the ignition cartridge of the appliance should fail, firelighters can
be used to ensure an emergency operation. First, start the stove
as usual. Wait for the cleaning cycle and for the grid to tip. Then
open the firebox door and place a handful of pellets, along with the
firelighter, into the cleaned fire trough and light it up, subsequently
closing the firebox door.
Attention
Do not use any flammable liquids to light up the fire!
