Information
1.3 Operating instructions
In case of any problems, get in touch with your dealer, or a qualified engineer authorised by
MCZ, and if a repair is necessary, insist on the use of original spare parts.
Shut the stove down in the event of a breakdown or bad running.
Use only the fuel specified by MCZ (6 mm diameter pellets. The fuel must be supplied to the stove
only by the automatic feed system.
Pellets must not be fed manually into the burner.
Periodically check and clean the smoke outlet ducts (connection to the flue pipe).
The accumulation of unburnt pellets in the burner after repeated "ignition failures" must be re-
moved before lighting.
Do not wash the inside of the stove with water.
Do not use water for washing the stove. The water could get inside the unit and damage the
electrical insulation and cause electric shocks.
The pellet stove is not a cooking appliance.
Do not expose your own body to hot air for extended periods. Do not overheat the room which
you are occupying, where the stove is installed. This could cause physical damage and also give
rise to health problems.
Do not expose plants or animals directly to a current of hot air. Both plants and animals could be
harmed by it.
Do not put anything in the hopper other than wood pellets.
Always keep the the cover of the fuel hopper closed.
Keep this instruction manual carefully because it must stay with the stove throughout its working
life. If the stove is sold or transferred to another user, always make sure that the booklet goes with
the product.
If it gets lost, ask MCZ or your authorised dealer for another copy.
Instal the stove in a location which is suitable for firefighting, and equipped with all services such
as air and electricity supply and provision for discharging combustion gases.
If the stove and the ceramic cladding are in storage, it should be in a place that is free of damp,
and they should not be exposed to extremes of temperature.
It is inadvisable to base the stove directly on the floor, and if the floor is made of flammable
material, it must be suitably insulated.
Do not light the stove with flammable materials if the ignition system breaks down.
