Page 5: Safety Warnings & Recommendations
Safety Warnings & Recommendations Pellet quality is important, please read the following: Your pellet heater has been designed to burn ¼” (6mm) diameter wood pellets, manufactured to the AS/NZS 4014.6 only. DO NOT use this appliance as an incinerator. DO NOT use unsuitable and non recommended fuels, including liquid fuels as this will void any warranties stated in the manual. -
Page 6: Flammable Liquids
Monica Plus requires a power source to function. This is standard mains feed 240v plug - if this is unavailable in close proximity a grounded extension lead may be used. -
Page 7: Operating Instructions
Operating Instructions The heater is completely automated and will self-regulate the ignition phase, five levels of power and the switching off phase, guaranteeing safe functioning. The burn pot used for combustion allows most of the ashes produced by the combustion of the pellets to fall into the collection drawer. However, it is recommended that you check the burn pot every day, as not all pellets have high standards of quality and could leave residue that is difficult to remove. -
