3 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
3.1 OPERATING TECHNOLOGY
Your appliance has been built to fully satisfy all your heating and practical
requirements. Top-grade components and functions managed with microprocessor
technology guarantee high reliability and optimal performance.
3.2 THE PELLET
The appliance is fuelled by pellets, that is, cylinders of compressed sawdust;
it his allows you to fully enjoy the heat of the flame without having to
manually stoke the combustion. The dimensions of the pellets are ø 6 and
length from 10 to 20 mm. They have a maximum moisture content of 8%; thermal
value 4000/4500 Kcal/Kg and density of 640-650 Kg/m³, less than 0.7% ash
content. The pellet must be approved according to UNI EN 14961-2 A1, A2. It is
strictly forbidden to use any pellet type other than that specified above. The
use of fuel that does not comply with the above specifications not only
immediately invalidates the warranty for the appliance but can also create
dangerous situations. Do not use the appliance as an incinerator, at the risk
of voiding the warranty.
3.3 PELLET REFUELLING
The feedbox is situated in the top part of the appliance. The load capacity
specified in the technical data can vary according to the specific weight of
the pellets. Take special care when loading the tank of the screw feeder at
its base. Only pellets that comply with the specifications listed above must
be fed into the tank. Never insert foreign objects into the tank. ATTENTION:
it is normal to find some pellets remaining in the tank even if the stove
shuts off because the pellets have run out. To access the feedbox firstly pull
out the tray and open the tank cover using only the special handle (A) as
illustrated in the figures below.
A
Figura 2
A
Figura 1
Figura 3 A
Legenda Figura
Key Figure
Attention: The tray and the cover can reach very high temperatures and be the
cause of burns. Open them using
only the special handle provided. Attention: when filling up the tank, take
care not to drop any pellets into the internal parts of the appliance, as, in
extreme cases, this could generate live flames. The manufacturer recommends
emptying the tank and vacuuming the screw feeder zone once a month and during
the summer period. If the screw feeder can be seen when loading the pellet in
the tank (pellet almost exhausted in the tank), the appliance must be turned
off, cooled down and the brazier must be cleaned. Do not switch off the
appliance by means of the main switch O/I on the power panel or by cutting off
the power supply. Then restart the appliance.
Should you notice an excessive stagnation of flue gas in the combustion chamber, move away from the appliance immediately. In particular move away from the glass door of the combustion chamber. The excessive concentration of unburned gases could create an explosion that could break the glass. Do not open the fuel feed door for any reason and do not go near the appliance until said gases have been exhausted. Contact a technical service centre to determine the causes. Do not switch off the appliance by means of the main switch O/I on the power panel or by cutting off the power supply. Do not turn on the appliance for any reason whatsoever following an event such as this.
Only pellets complying with the above specifications are to be loaded into the tank; in no case whatsoever must foreign substances or objects be introduced into the tank, the brazier or any part of the generator.

4 INSTALLATION
4.1 APPLIANCE LOCATION
Follow the general guidelines set out in paragraph 1.1 to the letter. Keep in mind that the flooring of the room in which the
appliance is to be installed must withstand the total weight of the appliance combined with the pellets contained in the
tank.
ATTENTION: The room where the appliance is installed must be well-ventilated and free
from humidity and salty air. A high level of humidity or saltiness in the room can lead to the
onset of rust or corrosion which will not be covered by warranty.
The appliance must be positioned at a minimum safe distance from walls and furnishings. If
inflammable materials are located in the vicinity of the appliance (e.g.: matchboarding,
furniture, curtains, pictures and paintings, sofas) it is mandatory to comply with the minimum
distances illustrated (see figure at right) Installation in the vicinity of heat-sensitive materials
is only permitted if suitable insulating and fireproof protection is placed between the object
and the appliance (ref. Uni 10683). If the flooring is made of wood or any other combustible
material, it is mandatory to install a fireproof floor protector plate between the appliance and the floor. Failure to observe this instruction will immediately invalidate the appliance warranty.
A = 800 mm L = 200 mm
P = 200 mm
The installer must issue a certificate of conformity for the installation which includes the design plans and the following documents: a) Report containing the type of materials utilised. b) Project as defined in Article 5 of Ministerial Decree n° 37 22 January 2008. c) Drawing of the finished installation. d) References to existing partial or previous declarations of conformity (e.g. electrical wiring). e) Copy of the certificate of recognition of the professional technical qualifications.
These documents must, by law, be kept together with the use and maintenance
booklet. The customer is responsible for verifying, directly or indirectly,
that the installation has been carried out to perfection in accordance with
relevant regulations in force. Do not install the appliance in unsuitable
rooms such as bedrooms, bathrooms, garages and/or lock-ups. It is forbidden to
place the appliance in environments with an explosive atmosphere. ATTENTION,
the stove is not simply a household appliance: if the instructions set out in
this booklet are not followed and/or if installation of the appliance is not
executed perfectly and/or the provisions in force are not strictly complied
with, dangerous conditions could arise for both objects and persons. It is the
user’s responsibility to verify the presence, in the room, of a vent necessary
for supplying oxygen to the generator.
4.2 UNPACKING
The appliance is delivered packed on a pallet; before positioning and
installing it proceed as follows: 1) Remove the cardboard A (Figure 1). 2)
Remove the components B, C and D anchoring the feet to the pallet (Figure 2).
3) Now remove the product from the pallet taking care not to damage it.

4.3 CONNECTING THE APPLIANCE TO THE FLUE OUTLET
Connection of the appliance to the flue outlet must be carried out in strict
compliance with the instructions contained in this use and maintenance guide.
To obtain the minimum overall rear distance indicated in the figures below it
is necessary to use the TEE provided by us (code no. 70022350). Using a
standard TEE will increase the overall rear distance, moreover the installer
must guarantee a vertical depth equal to or less than 74 mm. Failure to comply
with this value will make it impossible to remove the blind plug for normal
cleaning operations.

ATTENTION: Pay particular attention when assembling the smoke outlet pipe as
it must be no less than 24 mm from the control panel. If the pipe is
positioned close to the panel it would certainly overheat and therefore damage
the control panel (damage which is not covered by warranty).
When installing the 80 mm flue outlet, cut the corresponding upper shape as
illustrated in Figure 1A. When installing the 130 mm coaxial pipe, cut the
corresponding upper shape as illustrated in Figure 1B and install the optional
pipe covering kit as indicated in Figure 2.

7) To conclude the programming operations simply press the Menu Button several
times to exit the box until the initial screen will appear.
ATTENTION: The appliance ignores any ON or OFF command programmed with a value
of 00:00. Consequently, if you do not wish to use an ON or OFF time setting
simply set a value of 00:00. The appliance ignores any ON or OFF command if
the shut off time is set the same as or before the start up time. ATTENTION:
In the event of a programmed cycle on always ensure that the brazier is clean
and in the correct position. Failure to clean the brazier can reduce and/or
affect the life of the spark plug as it would be subjected to high
temperatures due to poor cooling. It is recommended to set ON/OFF cycles times
lasting no less than 2 hours, in order to save energy and for the proper
operation of the appliance.
Enabling the programmed cycles:
Back in the initial screen, to enable the appliance to carry out the ON/OFF
cycles as programmed it is necessary to press the Clock Button. The image of a
clock will appear on the main screen:
The programmed cycles are now enabled.
When the programmed cycles are enabled (a clock symbol appears on the display)
it will not be possible to use an additional chronothermostat.
Disabling the programmed cycles:
To disable the appliance from carrying out the programmed ON/OFF cycles press
the Clock Button once again. On the display the clock symbol will disappear.
This operation disables the weekly program that has been set by the user but
does not delete or reset the times.
Resetting the programmed cycles: Moreover, it is possible to reset, in other
words delete, all the programmed cycles entered by the user by holding down
the Clock Button in the initial screen for approx. five seconds. The words
CLEAR TIMERS will appear momentarily on the screen.
Do not release the button until the text CLEARED appears on the screen. Only
the appearance of the words CLEARED signal that the previously entered
programmed cycles have been deleted. When the programmed cycles are active the
operating level at start up, that is the combustion power, will be the same
level set before the last time the machine was shut off: that is, only if it
was a programmed shut off, not if the machine was shut off by means of a
manual action. Manual shut down can only be carried out with the programming
disabled. If after a manual shut off the programmed cycle re-enables, at the
next programmed start up the appliance will be on the first combustion power
level.

Installation, use and maintenance guide CHICCA
5.5 LEVEL: OPERATING LEVEL SETTING
The appliance must be energised and the I/0 switch in position “I”.
Your appliance is delivered with an excellent program installed that favours combustion efficiency; the program is called LEVEL 1.
However, if you are using pellets with a higher than normal incidence of residues after combustion in the brazier, it is possible to
select alternative levels:
LEVEL 2
is an operating program that accelerates the speed of the smoke suction unit in proportion to all the combustion
power levels. This level must be set when the user notices a weak, high and very dark flame. Attention: this
modification does not authorise the use of below-standard pellets, or no vacuum in the flue outlet.
If using loosely compressed pellets, you could select:
LEVEL 0:
is an operating program that decelerates the speed of the smoke suction unit when using loosely compressed
pellets and/or when the flue outlet has a very high vacuum, over 2 mm water column (20 Pascal).
The pellet consumption value remains unchanged regardless of the selected operating level. These variations will only change the
rotation of the smoke suction unit in the WORK stage, all the other stages will not undergo any changes.
Select the required Level by acting as follows: 1) Press the Menu Button three times quickly and the following box will appear:
After a few seconds the following screen will appear on the display:
- To change the operating level, hold down a Scroll Button while
simultaneously pressing the other Scroll Button. To set the desired level
simply press the Menu Button several times until the initial screen will
appear on the display.
The level selection can be made with the appliance OFF or ON. If the change is made while the appliance is running the difference in the flame will be apparent. It is mandatory to pay particular care when selecting the most appropriate operating cycle for your installation. After the selection of the operating cycle a thorough cleaning of the brazier is mandatory.

6 USE OF THE APPLIANCE
6.1 DESCRIPTION OF THE OPERATING STAGES START: has a duration of approx. 20
minutes, during this phase the appliance is programmed to light the flame. The
appliance will not accept power variations in the firebox. If the appliance
does not start up correctly it could be due to one of the following factors:
cleanliness of the generator, smoke exhaust particularly cold, sudden surges
and drops in the electric power supply, fuel is too moist or does not comply
with the specifications. WORK: the appliance works according to the combustion
and ventilation power set by the user. The spark plug is dead. OFF: has a
duration of approx. 25 minutes. In this phase the appliance is switched off
until a new “on” phase is initiated. The aim is to make the pellet embers in
the brazier die out and cool the appliance. The room fan and the smoke suction
unit continue to operate as required. In any case after approx. 25 minutes the
appliance goes into stand-by mode.
6.2 SWITCHING ON THE STOVE Before using the appliance check that all the
movable parts are correctly fitted. Also remove any labels and stickers from
the glass to avoid that permanent traces remain on the surfaces. Verify that
the electric connections have been made perfectly. Also make sure that the
doors are always closed properly and air tight. Before starting up the product
check that the brazier is present and correctly positioned.
Then carry out the following operations: 1) Power up the appliance and turn
the I/0 switch to position “I”. 2) Ensure that the appliance is connected to
the smoke exhaust: we recommend against using aluminium tubes and we recommend
always using sealing gaskets. Further information is given in paragraph
dedicated to the smoke discharge of this use and maintenance booklet. 3) Load
the pellets into the hopper. 4) Press the Flame Button to begin the start up
phase and the word START will appear on the display.
Press the Flame Button repeatedly to set the desired combustion power which
will only activate at the end of the START cycle which takes roughly 20
minutes. In this stage any level of combustion power set by the user is
ignored to meet the correct power values set by the manufacturer. Press the
Ventilation button repeatedly to set the six fan speeds; the fan will only
activate once the smoke has reached the preset temperature. The electrical
heater will start to heat and only after a few minutes the first lot of
pellets will start dropping into the brazier. This occurs because the screw
feeder has to fill up because it is completely empty. At the first start up
the appliance may require the starting sequence to be performed twice for the
reason explained above: before starting up the second time empty and vacuum
out the brazier.
ATTENTION: During the START sequence the appliance ignores all the commands
that are transmitted or set. Once this phase has ended the word WORK appears
on the display. When the machine is in the running phase the combustion can be
changed manually.
ATTENTION: If the appliance does not start up correctly check that the brazier
and electric heater are clean. It is very important to ensure that the tube
lodging of the electric heater is clean; there must be no deposits or dust. It
is recommended to use an efficient ash vacuum cleaner but only when the
appliance has cooled down.
6.3 COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION ADJUSTMENTS
Set the combustion power of the stove by acting on the Flame Button. The
combustion power regulates the pellet drop. The selected combustion power
level will appear on the display. Set the ventilation speed of the stove by
acting on the Ventilation Button. The ventilation speed regulates the number
of fan revolutions. A slight vibration of the stove is quite normal when it is
running. The selected ventilation power level will appear on the display.

ATTENTION: When the appliance is operating the temperature of the lever is
very high, so take care not to touch it. It must only be activated using the
special glove provided.
6.5 SWITCHING OFF THE APPLIANCE To switch off the appliance press the Flame
Button until the power bars on the display disappear and the text OFF appears.
DO NOT disconnect the generator from the electric power socket to switch it
off. This operation generates smoke that could not be evacuated because of the
construction characteristics of the flue outlet. The OFF procedure lasts for
approx. 25 minutes.
Page 17
Installation, use and maintenance guide CHICCA
7 CHRONOTHERMOSTAT (optional)
ENG
An additional chronothermostat can be installed by connecting it inside the
electronic board compartment to terminal block CN5 as illustrated in the
figure below. Using this output when the chronothermostat contact closes the
START cycle begins, whereas when the contact opens the OFF cycle begins.
The contacts to connect are defined as “clean” contacts and they must never be
fed with 230 V. If the board is powered with 230 V or lower voltages, the
control board would be irreparably damaged and the warranty voided.
This operation must be exclusively performed by qualified professional staff,
as set forth by Decree no. 37 of 22nd January 2008 and applicable laws on the
subject. Before performing said task, make sure the power supply cable is
disconnected from the electrical power socket.
ATTENTION: The manufacturer denies all responsibility for the life of the
electrical heater if subjected to excessive start up cycles. Consequently, it
is advisable to set the chronothermostat appropriately. If an external
chronothermostat is connected to the appliance it will not be possible to use
the Chrono function on the panel. In the event of connections to the
chronothermostat Thermorossi shall not be held responsible for the appliance
not starting up, smoke leaks, breakage of the lighting component. The user
must make sure that the brazier is always clean. When using the
chronothermostat program up to a maximum of 3 on-off cycles. The
chronothermostat must have a thermal hysteresis that is not less than 2°C. To
access the board compartment, remove the screws (A) that hold the tray in
place, see Figure 1, pull out the tray (B) and extract the right side (C).

8 CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
8.1 FOREWORD
Before beginning any maintenance operation ensure that the appliance is
switched OFF and disconnected from the electric power socket. Your appliance,
being a pellet-fuelled appliance, requires regular general controls and
cleaning. This will guarantee regular operation and optimal output at all
times. If the product is unused for a prolonged period of time before starting
up, it is mandatory to inspect the smoke channel and outlet to ensure that
there are no obstructions. It is important to carefully follow the
instructions set out below: failure to observe these instructions could cause
serious damage to the product, to objects and to persons using the appliance.
Attention: do not wet the appliance and do not touch the electrical parts with
wet hands. Never vacuum hot ash: this could damage the vacuum device. All the
cleaning operations described in this manual must be carried out when the
appliance is cold. The firebox door and ash drawer handles must always be
opened and closed using the special glove supplied with the appliance.
The user must periodically clean the appliance, or have an authorised service
centre clean it, as described in this manual. Moreover, once a year it is
advisable to have an inspection carried out of the functionality of the flue
outlet.
8.2 CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Due to the frequent cases we have encountered of the use of poor quality
pellets, users are advised that it is mandatory to use, in this appliance,
pellets certified in accordance with the regulations in force for the Italy
UNI market or for the European EN market. If this requirement is not observed
the result will be unsuitable combustion, consequently, the electrical and
mechanical components could be subjected to very high temperatures and will
not be covered by warranty. Unless otherwise instructed, the operations
described below are mandatory and not postponable beyond the specified times.
EVERY DAY: · Remove the ash pan and the brazier assembly by pulling them
outwards. Thoroughly clean out all the combustion residues from
the brazier and the compartment A1 (Figures 1, 2, 3 and 4). Then return the
brazier and the Pellet Power to their positions. To open and close the doors
of the firebox and of the ash pan, use the special handles provided. To
guarantee correct operation of the appliance, carefully clean the area around
the spark plug. ATTENTION: make sure, before every start up, that the brazier
is clean and in the correct position. If necessary clean the burner more
thoroughly using an ash vacuum device.
EVERY 3 DAYS: · Check that the holes of the burner and the heater lodging
channels are completely sediment-free. If necessary, vacuum and
clean (Figure 1, 2, 3 and 4). Remove, if present, all silica agglomerates;
they indicate poor quality fuel. · Empty the ash from the pan (Figure 1).
EVERY 7 DAYS: · Inspect and clean the opening indicated as C1 (Figure 5). To
access it, open the doors, remove the ash pan and lift the flap.
When closing it ensure that nothing is preventing it from closing correctly.
EVERY MONTH: · Inspect and clean the Tee-joint of the smoke exhaust pipe. ·
Vacuum, when empty, the saw dust on the bottom of the pellet tank. · Check
that the smoke exhaust pipe is free from any ash deposits, above all in the
initial parts that could have a smaller section. · Remove the back of the
combustion chamber (figure 6, 7) by lifting it and rotating it outwards. Then
clean the tubes and smoke
passages thoroughly. · Clean the tube bundle (Figure 8) as well as both
compartments allowing the passage of smoke C4 (Figure 9).
AT LEAST TWICE A YEAR: · Clean the flue outlet. If there are any horizontal
sections, inspect them and clean out any ash and soot deposits before they
block the passage of the flue gases.
AT THE END OF THE WINTER SEASON (or whenever necessary) · Carry out a thorough
cleaning of the complete firebox and the various compartments of the
appliance, using brushes and
vacuum cleaner.
A vacuum device simplifies the ash cleaning procedure. The front and side
casings must be cleaned when the heater is cold using a soft cloth and water.
It is also normal to find partially or totally unburned pellets in the ash
pan. When the combustion chamber door is opened it is normal for the ash to
drop to the floor.
ATTENTION: after cleaning it is mandatory to carefully check that the
combustion chamber door and the ash pan door are firmly closed and airtight.

9 SMOKE DISCHARGE TUBE AND VENTILATION OF THE ROOMS
9.1 FOREWORD
Due to the frequent accidents caused by poor functioning of flue outlets
installed in private dwellings, we have prepared the following paragraph to
assist the installer in his inspection of the parts concerned with eliminating
the gases produced by combustion.
The smoke outlet and the air intakes must be fitted in compliance with
standards UNI 10683 and EN 14785 and it must observe the reference values laid
down in the standard, in particular, the outlet must comply with fire
prevention regulations. This chapter is not intended to replace these
standards.
It is important to carefully follow the instructions included in these
standards: failure to observe these instructions could cause serious damage to
the product, to the system, to objects and to persons using the
generator.
9.2 ROOM VENTILATION
The air intakes and the room ventilation must comply with regulation UNI
10683.
ATTENTION: the presence of extraction fans or similar appliances, if operating
in the same room or space in which the product is installed, could cause
problems for the correct operation of the product. ATTENTION: do not obstruct
the vents or the air inlets on the appliance.
The room where the appliance is installed must have a good air flow to
guarantee air for the appliance for the combustion process and for ventilation
of the room. The natural air flow must take place directly through permanent
openings on the outer walls or through ventilation ducting. The ventilating
air must come from outside and if possible, away from sources of pollution.
The openings in the walls must comply with the following conditions: · have an
unobstructed section of at least 6 cm² for each kW of installed thermal power,
with a minimum limit of 100 cm²; · be made in such a way that the vent
openings, both on the inside and outside of the wall, cannot be obstructed; ·
be protected with grills or similar systems that do not reduce the opening
section indicated above; · be situated at a height near-floor level and they
must not obstruct the correct operation of the combustion product discharge
devices; if this position is not possible, the section of the ventilation
openings must be enlarged by at least 50%.
9.3 SMOKE OUTLET
The exhaust pipe must comply with regulation UNI 10683. The smoke channel, the
exhaust pipe, chimney and flue outlet (defined as the system for the
evacuation of combustion products), are parts of the heating system and they
must comply with the legislative requirements of the Ministerial Decree DM
37/08 (ex Italian Law 46/90) and to the applicable specific installation
regulations, according to the type of fuel. Fireplaces, stoves and barbecues
must not be installed in locations where gas appliances type A and type B are
present and operating (for the classification see UNI 10642 and UNI 7129). The
connection between the appliance and the flue outlet must only receive exhaust
from one heat generator. The installer must provide one or more access points
on the flue outlet to check the emissions once the appliance has been
installed; these access points must be made in such a way as to be airtight
sealable to prevent exhaust gas leaks. The appliance is equipped with a smoke
exhaust motor, it works in low pressure and with very low smoke temperatures,
consequently it is recommended to insulate it and to ensure that the flue
outlet is sized appropriately in order to avoid the possible risk of creating
condensation.
9.3.1 FLUE OUTLET / FLUE SYSTEM COMPONENTS Every chimney must have minimum number of components as laid down by standard UNI EN 10683 which are also indicated in the figure below.
Components and accessories of a
chimney Key 1 Chimney 2 Flow path 3 Smoke discharge tube 4 Thermal insulation

Installation, use and maintenance guide CHICCA
9.3.2 CONTROLS PRIOR TO INSTALLING THE APPLIANCE
The user must possess a certificate of compliance for the flue outlet
(Ministerial Decree 22 January 2008, no. 37).
The flue outlet must be built in compliance with UNI 10683.
The smoke exhaust shown in the following figures is the best solution to
facilitate the discharge of smoke even when the fan is not operational, such
as for example if there is an electrical power failure. A minimum drop of 2/3
metres is required between the T terminal on the outside of the building
and the outlet at the back of the generator, to facilitate the discharge of
residual combustion smoke in the case described above (otherwise the
residues would stagnate inside the firebox and exhaust into the environment with added the possibility of explosions).
ISPEZIONE
If the flue outlet is too big it is necessary to insert a stainless steel or
porcelain-coated steel tube with a diameter not exceeding 150mm. Seal
area where the inlet and outlet part of the smoke exhaust meets the wall.
It is strictly forbidden to apply mesh to the end of the outlet tube, as it could
cause the appliance to malfunction. If the smoke tube is installed in a fixed
position, it is advisable to provide inspection openings for clean-out
purposes especially in the horizontal sections.
These openings are essential to allow for the removal of ash and unburned
products which tend to accumulate along the discharge path. The
appliance functions with the combustion chamber in a vacuum, while the
discharge of smoke to the flue outlet has a slight pressure, consequently it
is imperative to ensure that the discharge system is hermetically sealed.
The smoke discharge tube must be made from suitable LEGENDA materials such as for example: porcelain-coated steel COMIGNOLO E CANNA FUMARIA
tubes, with the various fittings sealed with red silicone (resistant to 350°C). The outer casing of the tube must be made with insulating material (mineral wool, ceramic fibre) or use pre-insulated tubing.

It must be possible to inspect and remove all the smoke tube sections for
clean-out purposes. ATTENTION: if the flue outlet is not sufficiently
insulated and /or if it is too long it could generate condensation. It is
advisable to provide a condensation drain near the smoke outlet of the
appliance. The appliance must always and only be installed in a single flue
outlet system dedicated exclusively to the appliance. If the generator is
connected to a non-compliant flue system the appliance could rapidly
deteriorate due to an abnormal, continuous overheating: in this case the
damaged parts will not be covered by warranty.
IF THE CHIMNEY CATCHES FIRE DO NOT HESITATE TO CALL THE FIRE BRIGADE
IMMEDIATELY.

10 ALARMS
The appliance is programmed to communicate the following alarms.
ATTENTION: The appearance of one of the alarms described below, does not
necessarily imply a defect in the product, but simply Thermorossi S.p.A.’s
intention to inform the user of the need for corrective actions in order to
guarantee maximum safety, greater reliability and high performance of the
appliance.
The alarms are listed below:
This meassge appears when during the WORK stage the temperature of the smoke drops below a preset threshold: this means that the appliance is shutting off due to lack of pellets. To reset the alarm the power to the appliance must be switched off then on by turning the switch 0-1 located on the power panel. It is mandatory to empty and clean the brazier, and then to fill the pellet tank before repeating the START phase. It could be that the screw feeder is completely empty, so the start up sequence may have to be carried out twice.
This appears if, after the START sequence, the smoke has not reached a suitable temperature. To reset the alarm the power to the appliance must be switched off then on by turning the switch 0-1 located on the power panel. It is mandatory to empty and clean the brazier before repeating the START phase: pellets emptied from the brazier must not be fed into the tank.
This occurs when the smoke outlet is partially blocked. To reset the alarm the
power to the appliance must be switched off then on by turning the switch 0-1
located on the power panel. Before restarting the appliance check for any
irregularities such as blocked flue outlet, open firebox door, very dirty
appliance.
Do not start up the appliance until the problem has been identified and solved
It is mandatory to empty and clean the brazier before repeating the START
phase: pellets emptied from the brazier must not be fed into the tank.
This appears when the appliance overheats. After having verified and solved the causes for the overtemperature, unscrew the plastic cover of the reset thermostat located on the power/control panel and press the button (the appliance can only be reset when its temperature has dropped considerably). To reset the alarm the power to the appliance must be switched off then on by turning the switch 0-1 located on the power panel. It is mandatory to empty and clean the brazier before repeating the START phase: pellets emptied from the brazier must not be fed into the tank.
Appears when the smoke thermocouple is damaged or absent. Contact the technical assistance service.
Activates when the smoke suction unit revolution sensor detects a very slow rotation speed: check the flue pipes and the flue outlet. If the problem persists contact the technical assistance service.
Trips when the smoke suction unit revolution sensor fails to detect any rotation. The smoke suction unit or the rotation sensor are not working. Contact the technical assistance service.
It activates when the ash pan remains open for more than thirty seconds. To reset the alarm the power to the appliance must be switched off then on by turning the switch 0-1 located on the power panel. It is mandatory to close the ash pan, empty and clean the brazier before repeating the START phase: pellets emptied from the brazier must not be fed into the tank.

12 INFORMATION FOR THE SKILLED TECHNICIAN
ENG
12.1 MAIN COMPONENTS AND THEIR POSITION
SMOKE PRESSURE SWITCH This is a safety switch that stops the screw feeder motor whenever necessary. The main cause for the pressure switch tripping is a blocked flue outlet or smoke exhaust pipe. Note that it is strictly forbidden to apply any kind of mesh screen to the end of the pipe. When the holes of the mesh clog up they create a plug that trips the pressure switch which stops the pellet feeder.
SCREW FEEDER MOTOR This motor is powered at regular on/off intervals controlled by a microprocessor. The operation of this motor is affected when: -The motor’s thermal cutout trips. -The pressure switch trips due to blocked smoke exhaust. -Pellets finished. -Voluntary shut down of the appliance. -The manual reset thermostat trips at 125°C
ROOM FAN Starts automatically as soon as the smoke thermocouple detects a suitable smoke temperature. Similarly, it stops when the fuel is finished or during a voluntary shut down when the smoke thermocouple detects a suitable temperature for activating (to a maximum of 20 minutes).
SMOKE SUCTION UNIT This is activated when the appliance starts up. In the first minute it «washes» the smoke discharge tube, that is, it functions at maximum working rate. Once this time has elapsed it self-adjusts to the optimal speed. The exhaust continues to operate for approximately twenty minutes from the time the appliance is switched off to allow for the evacuation of all the smoke and for safety purposes.
THERMOCOUPLE Its function is to verify the temperature of the combustion smoke: when the smoke temperature exceeds a certain value it indicates that the appliance is on. Similarly, when the temperature drops below a certain limit it causes the presence of the message NO PELLET on the display.
NATURAL SENSOR (TANK PROTECTION) This probe activates as soon as the temperature around the pellet tank rises above a certain threshold, which immediately signals the room fan to start operating.
125°C MANUAL RESET THERMOSTAT When the temperature exceeds 125°C the pellet feed screw shuts down. Display shows the inscription “AL T max”. Once the causes for the overtemperature have been identified and remedied the appliance can be reactivated by unscrewing the plastic cover of the thermostat located on the power panel and pressing the button (the appliance temperature must have considerably dropped).
GLOW PLUG It is activated in the START phase. Heats the air to 800°C, which assist the first combustion of the pellets present in the brazier. The spark plug is guaranteed for a period of 6 months.
BRAZIER CLEANING MOTOR This is a patented system that creates a continual
movement of the combustion pellets inside the burner which consequently cleans
the burner.
12.2 PRESCRIPTIONS FOR CORRECT USE
· Read this instruction booklet. · The appliance must always be switched off
from the control panel. It is forbidden to switch off the appliance by means
of the main switch 0/I located in the power panel during operation. · The
appliance must never be disconnected from the electrical power supply and the
power supply must never be cut off during normal operation. Whenever the
appliance is deliberately disconnected from the electric power supply smoke
could be emitted into the room. · Do not install the appliance with horizontal
wall outlets only: Evacuation of products of combustion by natural draught
must always be guaranteed as well. Unsuitable installation of the outlets
could cause a forced shut down of the appliance due to overpressure of the
exhaust smoke caused by a gust of wind. · At the first startup, run the heater
at the maximum power in a well-ventilated room, in order to dispose of the
smoke generated by the complete dryness and baking of the silicates contained
in the enamel coating of the combustion chamber. · Do not install a grill or
outlet terminal that could slow down the flow of the combustion gases: this
would obviously cause the appliance to malfunction. · Keep the appliance clean
and particularly check the brazier as described in these instructions. · Clean
the smoke outlet regularly. · Use good quality pellets: use of poor pellets
can result in up to 50% less efficiency. · The pellets must be stored in a
well-ventilated, dry place. · The generator door must always remain closed
during normal operation. · Do not touch hot outer surfaces, unless with
special equipment. · Do not pour the pellets directly into the brazier. · Keep
fuel and inflammable materials at a suitable distance. · Use only original
spare parts supplied by the manufacturer.
