SAFETY PRECAUTIONS . . . Continued
• DO NOT operate the stove if the flame becomes dark and sooty or if the firepot overfills with pellets. Push
the OFF Touch Pad and inspect the heater. (See Operating Your Stove). Soot or creosote may accumulate
in the exhaust vent system when the stove is operated under incorrect conditions such as an extremely rich
burn. The flame will have a lazy orange color with black tips. This indicates poor pellet fuel combustion.
• NEVER block free airflow through the open vents of the unit. The viewing door and ash pan must be closed
and latched during operation.
• The pellet appliance exhaust system works with negative combustion chamber pressure and a positive
chimney pressure, therefore the exhaust system must be completely airtight and properly installed. All
exhaust system vent joints must be sealed, gas tight, with HI-TEMP RTV silicone sealant, and/or at least 3
sheet metal screws per joint and to the heater also.
• Your heater requires periodic maintenance and cleaning (Refer to ”Routine Cleaning” section of the
manual). Failure to maintain your heater may lead to smoke spillage in your home.
• Disconnect the power cord from the electrical outlet before performing any maintenance. Pushing ”OFF”
Touch Pad does not disconnect all power to the heater.
• BEFORE carrying out any maintenance or cleaning, allow the heater to cool. Ashes must be disposed in a
metal container with a tight lid and placed on a non-combustible surface or on the ground, well away from
all combustible materials, pending final disposal.
• The exhaust system should be checked twice a year minimum for any build-up of soot or
creosote. Do not touch the hot surfaces of the heater.
Note: Canadian Comfort Industries grants no warranty, implied or stated, for the installation or
maintenance of your heater, and assumes no responsibility of any consequential damage(s).
