Edison Installation and Operation Manual
•
DO NOT OPERATE THE STOVE IF THE FLAME BECOMES DARK AND SOOTY OR IF THE
BURN POT OVERFILLS WITH PELLETS. TURN THE STOVE OFF, INSPECT IT, AND CALL
YOUR DEALER.
•
TURNING THE STOVE OFF DOES NOT DISCONNECT ALL POWER FROM THE STOVE.
ALWAYS DISCONNECT THE POWER CORD AND THE AUXILARY BATTERY SYSTEM
BEFORE PERFORMING ANY MAINTENANCE OR REPAIRS ON THE STOVE.
•
ALLOW THE STOVE TO COOL BEFORE CARRYING OUT ANY MAINTENANCE OR
CLEANING. ASHES SHOULD BE PLACED IN A METAL CONTAINER WITH A TIGHT
FITTING LID. THE CLOSED METAL CONTAINER SHOULD BE PLACED ON A
NONCOMBUSTIBLE FLOOR OR ON THE GROUND, WELL AWAY FROM ALL
COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS, PENDING FINAL DISPOSAL. IF THE ASHES ARE
DISPOSED OF BY BURIAL IN SOIL OR OTHERWISE LOCALLY DISPERSED, THEY
SHOULD BE RETAINED IN THE CLOSED CONTAINER UNTIL ALL ASHES HAVE BEEN
THOROUGHLY COOLED.
•
DO NOT OPERATE THE STOVE IF YOU SMELL OR SEE SMOKE.
MONITOR IT AND CALL YOUR DEALER IF NECESSARY. DO NOT UNPLUG IT. NEVER
OPEN THE DOOR.
•
IT IS RECOMMENDED TO UNPLUG THE STOVE WHEN IT'S NOT IN USE FOR
PROLONGED AMOUNT OF TIME (I.E. DURING SUMMER). HEAT ACTIVATED SENSORS
ON THE STOVE COULD START THE FANS EVEN IF THE STOVE IS NOT IN FUNCTION.
THE CR2032 BUTTON BATTERY MUST ALSO BE REMOVED DURING THIS PERIOD
(VOIR SECTION 2.3: BEFORE OPERATING YOUR STOVE).
•
THIS STOVE REQUIRES REGULAR MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING. FAILURE TO
FOLLOW THE MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE (SEE SECTION 8.1.1: RECOMMENDED
MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE) WILL REDUCE THE STOVE PERFORMANCE AND COULD
EVENTUALLY DAMAGE IT. IT ALSO MAY LEAD TO SMOKE SPILLAGE IN YOUR HOME.
•
THIS STOVE IS DESIGNED AND TESTED TO BURN ONLY WOOD PELLETS. ANY OTHER
TYPE OF FUEL BURNED IN THIS HEATER WILL VOID THE WARRANTY.
•
HOPPER SHOULD ONLY CONTAIN PELLETS. HOPPER SHOULD BE KEPT FREE OF
ANY FOREIGN OBJECTS AT ALL TIME TO PREVENT ANY DAMAGE TO THE STOVE.
•
THE STOVE DOES NOT OPERATE WITHOUT ELECTRICITY. IF A POWER OUTAGE
DOES OCCUR AND YOU DO NOT HAVE THE AUXILARY BATTERY SYSTEM, CHECK
THE STOVE FOR SMOKE SPILLAGE. OPENING A WINDOW WILL PREVENT NEGATIVE
PRESSURE AND SMOKE SPILLAGE IN THE ROOM. IT IS IMPORTANT NOT TO OPEN
THE HOPPER LID OR THE STOVE DOOR.
•
DO NOT UNPLUG THE STOVE IF YOU SUSPECT IT IS MALFUNCTIONING. TURN IT OFF,
MONITOR IT AND CALL YOUR DEALER IF NECESSARY.
•
THIS STOVE IS DESIGNED TO PROVIDE THE OPTIMUM PROPORTIONS OF FUEL AND
AIR TO THE FIRE IN ORDER TO BURN FREE OF SMOKE AND SOOT. ANY BLOCKAGE
OF THE AIR SUPPLY TO OR FROM THE STOVE WILL SERIOUSLY DECREASE ITS
PERFORMANCE AND WILL BE EVIDENT BY A SMOKING EXHAUST, A SOOT BUILDUP
ON THE WINDOW AND ON OUTSIDE WALLS. FOR BEST OPERATION, THE ASH
CONTENT OF THE PELLET FUEL SHOULD BE LESS THAN 1% AND THE CALORIFIC
VALUE APPROXIMATELY 8,500 BTU/LB. OTHERS FUELS WITH A HIGH ASH CONTENT
WILL REQUIRE A HIGHER LEVEL OF MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING.
