OPERATING SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
PLEASE READ THIS!
a.
If you notice a smoldering fire
(burnpot full but no visible flame)
AND a heavy smoke buildup in firebox,
immediately TURN OFF the stove, but DO NOT unplug it. Do not open the door, change the damper setting or
tamper with any controls on the stove.
Wait until smoke inside the firebox clears and blowers shut down. Do as
instructed in “
PRE-START-UP CHECK”
and “
LIGHTHING PROCEDURE”,
then attempt to restart the fire. If the
problem persists, contact your dealer. Please note that smoke build-up during ignition may occur. Smoke can
accumulate in the firebox for a few seconds just before the igniter is hot enough to fire-up the pellets in the burn pot.
This is normal. As soon there is fire in the burn pot, smoke will disappear.
b.
DO NOT STORE OR USE FLAMMABLE LIQUIDS, ESPECIALLY GASOLINE, IN THE VICINITY OF YOUR
ENERZONE STOVE. NEVER USE A GAS OR PROPANE TORCH, GASOLINE, GASOLINE-TYPE LANTERN
FUEL, KEROSENE, CHARCOAL LIGHTER FLUID OR SIMILAR FLUIDS TO START OR “FRESHEN UP” A FIRE
IN THIS HEATER.
c.
WARNING: DO NOT OVERFIRE THIS STOVE.
This may cause serious damage to your stove and void your
warranty. It also may create a fire hazard in your home.
IF ANY EXTERNAL PART OF THE UNIT BEGINS TO
GLOW, YOU ARE OVERFIRING.
Immediately press
on the control panel.
DO NOT UNPLUG YOUR
STOVE.
If you leave your house and your stove is not connected to a thermostat or a fresh air supply, do not leave it
at the maximum setting.
If the ambient air becomes to hot, the stove may overheat and the thermal protection
on the combustion/exhaust motor may be activated, causing the motor to stop.
d.
KEEP ALL HOUSEHOLD COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS, SUCH AS FURNITURE, DRAPES, TOYS, ETC. AT
LEAST THREE FEET AWAY FROM THE STOVE.
e. Always maintain proper ventilation. It is important that sufficient oxygen be supplied to the fire for optimal combustion.
Modern houses are often so well insulated that it may become necessary to open a window slightly or install an
outside air vent to provide sufficient combustion air.
f. Since heating with solid fuel is potentially hazardous, even with a well built and thoroughly tested stove, it would be
wise to install strategically placed smoke detectors and have a fire extinguisher in a convenient location, near an exit.
g. Do not open the stove door when operating unless necessary. This will create a dirty, inefficient burn and could allow
smoke spillage or sparks to escape.
h. Stove must not be operated by young children or someone unfamiliar with stove’s operation.
i.
Do not service or clean this appliance without disconnecting the power cord.
j.
Do not abuse the door glass by striking, slamming or similar trauma. Do not operate the stove with the glass removed,
cracked or broken.
k. High ambient temperature in summer time may cause the heat sensors on the stove to activate the blowers,
disconnect the stove when not used for extended periods.
