SAFETY FEATURES

HIGH LIMIT SWITCH:

Your heater is equipped with a high limit switch. In the event that the temperature of the heater approaches an unsafe operating temperature, this switch will shut down the pellet feed, which will eventually shut down the unit. If this happens, it is important to fi nd out why the unit overheated. Contact your local dealer.

LOW LIMIT SWITCH:

This switch will automatically shut down the heater if the fi re goes out.

BLOWER OVER-RIDE SWITCH:

Your heater is equipped with a convection blower that circulates hot air into your room. This switch will automatically turn the blower on, when the temperature at the back of the fi re box reaches a certain temperature. The blower can cycle from your desired setting to maximum speed depending on the feed rate. When the heater cools back down, the blower will return to the initial setting.

VACUUM SWITCH:

This switch will sense lack of air fl ow through the heater and shut down the pellet feed. This lack of fl ow could be caused by a blocked vent.

POWER FAILURE:

In the event of a power failure, the heater will shut down. Once power is restored, the heater will re-start, unless the con- vection air temperature has gone above the high limit switch setting. If this happens, contact your local dealer.

OUTSIDE AIR

Available from your Napoleon Dealer (114KT)

Outside air must not be drawn from an enclosed space (garage, unventilated crawl space).

NOTE: Wolf Steel Ltd. strongly suggests using outside air for all residential installations, especially for those that are energy efficient, air-tight homes.

Outside air supply must not be over 15' long.

Outside air vents must be made with 1 3/4" diameter or larger metal or aluminum duct with a metal screen attached to the end to keep out rodents (P.V.C. or other materials may not be used).

The outside air inlet must not be above or within 12" of the chimney termination, must have a rain cap or down-turned elbow to prevent the water from entering and be located so that it will not become plugged by snow or other material.

Outside air is mandatory for a combustible built-in enclosure install for the NPI40.
