7.2. ALARM SIGNALS

In the event of an operating fault an alarm is triggered and the stove

shuts down, informing the user which type of fault has been detected

via a 3-digit code that is displayed permanently on the emergency

panel on the rear of the stove.
The alarm is signaled permanently by the relevant three-digit code via a

red flashing light that always appears on the emergency panel. For the

first 10 minutes, the alarm is also signaled by a regular acoustic signal.

To get the stove out of the alarm condition and restore normal

operating status, read the instructions in paragraph 2, below.
The table below describes the possible alarms signaled by the stove

and the respective code displayed on the emergency panel, together

with useful suggestions of how to remedy the problem.

TYPE OF FAULT

SOLUTION

A01

Fire failed to ignite

Check the pellet level in the tank.
Check whether the brazier is correctly seated and
ensure that it does not have any evident incrustations
of unburned fuel.
Check whether the pellet igniter heats up.

A02

Abnormal fire extinguishing

Results from fire extinguishing due to lack of fuel (tank
empty).

A03

The temperature of the pellet tank exceeds
the safety threshold specified.
Overheating of the stove structure

The stove structure is too hot because the appliance
has operated for too long at maximum power or
because it is poorly ventilated or because the air fans
are faulty. When the stove is cold enough, press button
B on the control panel or OFF on the remote control to
cancel alarm A03. Once the alarm has been cancelled,
the stove can be restarted as normal.

A04

exceeded preset safety limits

The stove automatically shuts down. Leave the stove
to cool down for a few minutes and then restart it.
Check smoke outlet and the type of pellet used.

required amount of primary air for correct
combustion.

Draught problem of brazier blockage.
Check whether the brazier is blocked by incrustations
and clean it if necessary.
Check the smoke dust and air inlet and clean them if
necessary.

A08

Check that the smoke blower compartment is clean to
ensure that no dirt is clogging it. If this does not
resolve the problem the smoke blower is faulty. Call an
authorised service centre for it to be replaced.
