Drolet ECO-45 - Manual (Page 13)

IF THE STOVE RUNS OUT OF PELLETS
The fire goes out and the auger motor and blowers will run until the stove cools down. This will take a few minutes.
After the stove’s components stop running, a warning message will appear .
To restart, press the “RESET” button, refill the hopper , and press the “FUEL FEED” button until pellets begin to fall into the burn pot.
Press the “MODE” button to start the unit on Manual or Thermostatic mode.
DAMPER CONTROL
The damper control rod on the stove’s lower right side adjusts the combustion air. This control is necessary due to the varied burn
characteristics of individual installations and different pellet brands. It allows you to improve the efficiency of your stove. Providing correct
combustion air will reduce the frequency of cleaning your glass door and prevent the rapid buildup of creosote inside your stove and
chimney.
You should adjust the damper based on the fire’s appearance. A low, reddish, dirty fire can be improved by increasing the air supply using
the control knob located on the side of the unit. A “blow torch” fire can be improved by reducing the air supply.
Through trial and error, you will find the best setting. Consult your dealer if you need help.
REFUELING
We recommend that you not let the hopper drop below ¼ full. If the reload lid stays for open more than 3 minutes, an warning will
appear. To restart, press the “RESET” button, and then press the “MODE” button to start the unit on Manual or Thermostatic mode.
KEEP HOPPER LID CLOSED AT ALL TIMES EXCEPT WHEN REFILLING. THE HOPPER MAY BE FILLED WHILE THE STOVE IS
OPERATING. DO NOT OVERFILL HOPPER.
SHUTDOWN PROCEDURE
Turning your Drolet stove off is a matter of pressing the “MODE” control panel switch, until the “OFF” led goes on. The blowers will continue
to operate until internal firebox temperatures have fallen to a preset level.
SAFETY FEATURES
a. Your stove is equipped with a re-settable high temperature switch (also called heat sensor or heat switch). The switch has a reset
button on its backside. Like a circuit breaker, once tripped, the reset button will have to be pushed before you can restart the
stove. The high temperature switch is there to protect the stove from overheating in case of an evacuation problem, a control
board problem, a blower problem, or any other problem causing the unit to overheat. The manufacturer recommends that you call
your dealer if this occurs as it may indicate a more serious problem. A service call may be required.
NOTE: If an overheating situation occurs, the high temperature switch (called the L-250 manual reset) will automatically shut
down the auger (fuel feed system) and a warning code will appear.
b. If the combustion blower fails, an air pressure switch will automatically shut down the auger and a warning message will
appear. This safety feature is to prevent the unit from burning fuel when the combustion/exhaust blower has failed, therefore
preventing combustion fumes from spilling into the room.
c.
If the temperature in the auger rises beyond a certain acceptable level, a second high temperature switch located on the auger
housing will stop the fuel feed system and an warning will appear.
