    SMOKE SMELL OR SOOT BUILD-UP Because it is a wood-burning device, your ECO-35 may emit a faint wood-burning odor. If this increases beyond normal, or if you notice an unusual soot build-up on walls or furniture, check your exhaust system carefully for leaks. All joints should be properly sealed. Also clean your stove, following instructions in “MAINTENANCE”.

    In order to verify the grounding and polarity of the power outlet, the control board sends a low voltage impulse to the stove’s frame. If the polarity is wrong or if the outlet is not properly grounded, you may feel an electric shock when you touch the stove; this low voltage impulse is harmless and connecting your stove to a grounded outlet with the right polarity will keep this from happening and protect your electronics against damages from power surge.
