OPERATING SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
PLEASE READ THIS!
a.If you notice a smoldering fire (burnpot full but no visible flame) AND a heavy smoke buildup in firebox, immediately TURN OFF the stove, but DO NOT unplug it. Do not open the door, change the damper setting or tamper with any controls on the stove. Wait until smoke inside the firebox clears and blowers shut down. Do as instructed in
b.DO NOT STORE OR USE FLAMMABLE LIQUIDS, ESPECIALLY GASOLINE, IN THE VICINITY OF YOUR DROLET STOVE. NEVER USE A GAS OR PROPANE TORCH, GASOLINE,
c.WARNING: DO NOT OVERFIRE THIS STOVE. This may cause serious damage to your stove and void your warranty. It also may create a fire hazard in your home. IF ANY EXTERNAL PART OF THE UNIT BEGINS TO
GLOW, YOU ARE OVERFIRING. Immediately press the switch on the control panel. DO NOT UNPLUG YOUR STOVE. If you leave your house and your stove is not connected to a thermostat or a fresh air supply, do not leave it at the maximum setting. If the ambient air in a confined room becomes to hot, the stove may overheat and the thermal protection on the combustion/exhaust motor may be activated, causing the motor to stop.
d.KEEP ALL HOUSEHOLD COMBUSTIBLES, SUCH AS FURNITURE, DRAPES, TOYS, ETC. AT LEAST THREE FEET FROM THE STOVE.
e.Maintain proper ventilation. It is important that adequate oxygen be supplied to the fire for the combustion process. Modern houses are often so well insulated that it may become necessary to open a window slightly or install an outside air vent to provide sufficient combustion air.
f.Since heating with solid fuel is potentially hazardous, even with a well made and thoroughly tested stove, it would be wise to install strategically placed smoke detectors and have a fire extinguisher in a convenient location, near an exit.
g.Do not open the stove door when operating unless necessary. This will create a dirty, inefficient burn and could allow smoke spillage or sparks to escape.
h.Stove must not be operated by young children or someone unfamiliar with stove’s operation.
i.Do not service or clean this appliance without disconnecting the power cord.
j.Do not abuse the door glass by striking, slamming or similar trauma. Do not operate the stove with the glass removed, cracked or broken.
k.High ambient temperature in summer time may cause the heat sensors on the stove to activate the blowers, disconnect the stove when not used for extended periods.
