3. IMPORTANT INFORMATION

GENERAL WARNING AND SAFETY INFORMATION

Observance of the introductory general warning information is im-
perative
• Read the entire manual thoroughly prior to putting the stove into
operation.
• Only approved transport equipment with sufficient load carrying
capacity may be used with your heating appliance.
• The burning of fuel releases heat energy that leads to extensive
heating of the stove surfaces, doors, door and operating handles,
glass, flue pipes and possibly the front wall. Refrain from touching
these parts without appropriate protective clothing or equipment
e.g. heat-resistant gloves or means of operation (operating hand-
le).
• Make your children aware of this particular danger and keep them
away from the stove during heating.
• Placing non-heat resistant objects on the stove or near it is pro-
hibited.
• Do not place clothing on the stove to dry.
• Stands for drying clothes etc. must be placed at a sufficient dis-
tance to the stove – FIRE HAZARD!
• When your stove is burning, the use of highly inflammable and
explosive materials in the same or adjacent rooms is prohibited.
• ATTENTION: In cause of safety reason please do not open the
combustion chamber door during operation!
• CAUTION when filling the supply container. The pellet container
opening is sufficient to ensure easy filling. Take great care that no
pellets drop onto the convection fins and the hot stove body. This
may lead to severe smoke development.
We recommend to fill the pellet container when the stove is cold.

4. WHAT ARE PELLETS?

Wood pellets are a standardised fuel. Every manufacturer must adhe-
re to certain conditions in order to enable flawless, energy-efficient
heating. Pellets are made from wooden waste, from sawmills and pl-
anning workshops, as well as from residue from forestry operations.
These "starting products" are crushed, dried, and pressed into Pellet
"Fuel" without any bonding agent.
ENplus – Pellets
This new pellets are a standard sets new benchmarks in the Euro-
pean pellet market. The traceability of pellets is ensured thanks to
the use of identification numbers. The pellet manufacturers' pro-
duction facilities and manufacturing processes are reviewed every
year. A quality assurance system ensures the pellets comply with
the requirements of the new standard and that the conditions for
trouble-free heating are guaranteed.
English
Please ask your pellet stove dealer for tested fuel and a list
of monitored fuel manufacturers.
Using poor quality or prohibited pellet fuel will have a nega-
tive effect on the function of your pellet stove and can also
lead to the warranty becoming null and void, as well as the
product liability connected with this. Observe waste incinera-
tion legislation!
Only burn pellets that have been inspected according to
ÖNORM, DIN Plus or ENplus-A1.

PELLET STORAGE

In order to guarantee problem free burning of the wooden pellets, it
is imperative necessary to store the fuel as dry as possible and free
from impurities.
Pellets should not be kept in sacks outdoors or stored in a manner
where they are exposed to the environment. This can lead to blo-
ckages in the screw conveyor – „screw stoppers" are excluded from
the warranty.
NOTE: Waste and liquids may not be burnt in the stove!
