Operating Instructions

Your ProCom QNSD250RT stove features a battery-assisted Piezo ignition and a thermostatic LCD programmable remote control for convenient operation.

Initial Startup:

1. Ensure the gas supply valve is open.
2. Follow the specific ignition instructions provided in the separate manual for the Piezo ignition system. This typically involves pressing and holding a button while turning a knob to the pilot position, then releasing once the pilot light is lit.
3. Once the pilot is established, turn the knob to the desired heat setting.

Using the Remote Control:

• The remote control allows you to set a desired room temperature. The stove will cycle on and off automatically to maintain this temperature.
• Familiarize yourself with the remote control's buttons for power, temperature adjustment, and mode selection.
• Ensure the remote control has fresh batteries for optimal performance.

Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and safe operation of your stove. As a vent-free unit, it does not require an outside duct or chimney, simplifying some aspects of maintenance.

• Cleaning: The exterior of the stove can be wiped with a damp cloth. For the interior, follow the specific cleaning instructions in your detailed product manual. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
• Log Care: The hand-painted logs are designed for durability. Handle them carefully during any inspection or cleaning. If cleaning is necessary, a gentle wipe with a dry cloth is usually sufficient.
• Pilot Light and Burner: Periodically inspect the pilot light and burner ports for any obstructions or debris. Clean gently with a soft brush if needed.
• Oxygen Depletion Sensor (ODS): Do not attempt to clean or tamper with the ODS system. If you suspect a malfunction, contact a qualified service technician.

Troubleshooting

If your stove is not operating correctly, consult the following common issues before contacting customer support.

• Stove does not ignite:
  1. Check that the gas supply valve is fully open.
  2. Ensure the pilot light is lit. If not, re-attempt the ignition procedure.
  3. Verify that the remote control has fresh batteries and is within range.
  4. Check for any obstructions in the burner or pilot assembly.
• Stove does not stay running or cycles incorrectly:
  1. Ensure the room temperature setting on the remote control is higher than the current room temperature.
  2. Check for proper placement of the remote control; it should be in the same room as the stove and not obstructed.
  3. Verify that the ODS system is not being triggered by poor ventilation. Ensure adequate fresh air is available.
  4. If the issue persists, there may be a problem with the thermostatic control or ODS system. Contact customer support.
• Unusual odors:
  1. A slight odor may be present during initial use as manufacturing oils burn off. This is normal.
  2. If a strong or persistent gas odor is detected, immediately turn off the gas supply, ventilate the area, and contact your gas provider or a qualified technician.
