TROUBLESHOOTING: manual controls.
FAULT
No flame
Blackening of glass pipe
Glass pipe breakage
* Glass pipe breakage
The technical features of the glass pipe are particular and such as to permit resistance to ther-
mal shocks caused by normal temperature fluctuations, rain or damp.
Despite the choice of this material (Borosilicate), sudden pipe breakages can occur as a result
of particular weather conditions and/or excessively concentrated temperature fluctuations.
IMPORTANT! This pipe breakage (crack) does not cause injury to people or damage to
things in the immediate vicinity of the appliance.
IMPORTANT! Any pipe breakage does not, in the short term, prevent the appliance from
operating, but being a damaged part, it must be replaced to ensure correct operation.
CAUSE
1 – non enough gas supply flow:
- bad LPG gasification;
- bad LPG gasification with low temperature.
- pressure regulator wrongly set or faulty.
2 – sudden gust of wind (above 3 m/s).
3 – thermocouple interrupted.
4 – valve magnet faulty.
5 - Dump-switch failure or the floor with
inclination greater than 15°.
6 – dirt in gas circuit.
7 – gas leaks.
8 – battery low.
9 – isolation of electrodes and/or faulty
cables.
