 The pellet-run boiler is a biomass heating unit equipped with an electric fume
extractor. The occurrence of any power failure during its use may prevent fume
extraction and the room will be filled with smoke. For this reason, you should have a
natural fume extraction system, like a chimney, available;
 Solzaima offers an optional safety system that allows you to connect your boiler to
a UPS unit, thus avoiding problems related to a power failure and ensuring that the
fume extractor will continue to operate under such conditions until the complete
extraction of all fumes;
 If you intend to use your boiler when leaving it unattended or while you are away
from home, it is advised that you utilise the safety system specified above to guarantee
its safe functioning in the eventuality of a power failure;
 While in operation, NEVER disconnect the electric plug of your pellet-run boiler.
Seeing as the boiler's fume extractor is power-operated, disconnecting the plug would
prevent the extraction of combustion fumes;
 Your unit must be disconnected from the mains for servicing. Before doing this, the
unit must be totally cooled down (if operating before);
 Never touch the interior of the boiler without first disconnecting it from the power
mains;
 The maximum water temperature (set-point temperature) that the user can set for
the boiler is 80°C. In the event of the boiler reaching a temperature of 95ºC, it will
automatically switch off and activate a corresponding alarm.
