2. Safety Precautions
• Make sure you fully read and understand the instructions contained in this manual
before using the pellet insert as a biomass heating unit.
• The pellet insert is not intended for use by children or people physically and/or
mentally challenged, or that are inexperienced or unfamiliar with using the unit, except
when under supervision or after receiving proper training.
• Do not touch the pellet insert when barefoot or if any part of your body are wet or
humid;
• Do not tamper with the safety devices or adjustment features without the
SOLZAIMA SA manufacturer's authorization;
• It is prohibited to cover or reduce the size of the ventilation openings of the
installation;
• The pellet insert is an equipment that requires air to have a proper combustion, the
possible
Airtightness
of the place where the equipment is located or the existence of
other sources of air extraction in the house can prevent the correct functioning of the
equipment;
• The existence of vents is a requirement for proper combustion;
• Please keep the packing materials away from children;
• During normal operation, DO NOT open the door of the unit;
• Some parts may overheat during normal operation, so the direct contact with hot
parts such as the door handle and glass should be avoided;
• Check for the existence of any obstructions to the fume duct before turning on the
unit after a long idle period;
• The pellet insert is designed to work inside a protected environment. Safety
systems may be used to turn off the insert. If this happens, contact the after-sales
service and never in any situation disarm the safety systems;
• The pellet insert is a biomass heating unit equipped with an electric fume extractor.
The occurrence of a power failure during its use may prevent the fume to be extracted,
consequently causing the room to be filled with smoke. For this reason, a natural fume
extraction system, like a chimney, is recommended;
• NEVER turn off an operating Free Standing Pellet Fire unit by disconnecting the
electric plug. The fume extractor on the Free Standing Pellet Fire unit is a powered
feature, so disconnecting the power plug will prevent the extraction of combustion
fumes;
