 Power was interrupted while the stove was functioning. After the cool down cycle, the
stove will restart using the last settings. Press "RESET" to go back to the Main Status
Page.
Note: For a short power failure (less than 5 seconds), the stove will continue to function at the
selected speed.

9.3.9 Smoke Smell

 Venting system leaks. Inspect all vent connections. This is a pressurized venting system.
All vent connector joints must be sealed and fastened in accordance with the pellet vent
manufacturer's instructions to ensure consistent performance and avoid smoke and ash
spillage (see Section 4.5.1:
Reminder).
 Worn gaskets. Gaskets may be allowing smoke spillage (doors, clean out traps, etc).
Make sure that all gaskets are in good condition and replace them with original parts if
necessary. Make sure the door is well adjusted (see Section 8.1.9 Door Adjustment).
 Negative pressure. A faint wood-burning odor during ignition or shut down is normal.
Although, if this increases beyond what is considered normal or if you notice an unusual
soot build-up on walls or furniture, check your venting system carefully for leaks and make
sure all gaskets are in good condition. The stove exhaust blower produces a negative
pressure in the room. It draws air from the inside of the room, through the stove and then
outdoors. In the same manner, other appliances can also create a larger negative
pressure. In this case, as the air naturally flows from a high pressure point to a low
pressure point, a larger negative pressure can draw smoke from the inside of the stove
into the room. The stove can also be affected by other mechanical ventilation systems,
causing the same effect as mentioned previously. Using a fresh air intake will prevent
negative pressure (see Appendix E: Combustion Air supply). Also, make sure the
recommended maintenance schedule has been followed.
