SAFETY DEVICES
The stove is fitted with the following safety devices:
SMOKE TEMPERATURE SENSOR.
Monitors the temperature of the smoke, and gives permission for
start-up or shuts the stove down when the smoke temperature
falls below the preset value.
PELLET HOPPER TEMPERATURE SENSOR.
If the temperature surpassed the set safety value, it immediately
halts the stove's operation and to restart it is necessary to wait
until the stove has cooled down
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
The stove is protected against violent surges of current by the
main fuse, which is located on the control panel at the rear of the
stove. Other fuses to protect the electronic boards are to be found
on the boards themselves.
FAILURE OF THE SMOKE EXTRACTION FAN
If the fan stops, the electronic board rapidly shuts off the supply of
pellets and an alarm is displayed.
BREAKDOWN OF THE REDUCTION MOTOR
If the gear motor stops, the stove shuts down and the relative
alarm is signalled
TEMPORARY POWER CUT
If there is a power outage during operation, when the power
comes back on the stove will go into cooling mode and then it will
come back on automatically.
FAILURE TO LIGHT
If during ignition no flame develops, the stove will go into alarm
condition.
TAMPERING WITH THE SAFETY DEVICES IS
PROHIBITED
It is only after eliminating the cause which gave rise to the
intervention of the safety system, that it is possible to relight
the stove and thus reset the automatic operation of the
sensor. To understand which anomaly has occurred, consult
this manual at paragraph 6.1 which explains what to do
based on the alarm message the stove displays.
6.1.
ALARM SIGNALLING
Should an operating condition other than that foreseen for normal stove
operation take place an alarm condition is triggered. The control panel
shows the reason for the alarm in progress and by pressing the info key
summarised instructions are given on how to proceed to restore the
stove. The alarm sound signalling is not foreseen for A01 and A02 so
that the user is not disturbed if pellets run out during the night.
The table below describes the possible alarms signalled by the stove,
associated to the respective code that appears on the emergency panel,
and useful suggestions to solve the problem.
