ASSEMBLY AND INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
N.B. To install the stove, use only authorised and
trained personnel, or contact the dealer.
1. Check that the floor can support the total weight of the stove (140kgs).
2. Refer to the figure that shows the dimensions of the flue pipe, and allowing for the thickness of the floor-protection base (if applicable), make a hole in the chimney to accommodate the smoke outlet pipe (diameter 80 mm).
3. Connect the stove to the chimney with a certified steel pipe suitable for this use and seal it. This appliance must not be connected to a shared flue.
4. Leave adequate clearance around the stove for cleaning and servicing. If the appliance is to be installed in an alcove a minimum of 400mm clearance is required all round to allow access for cleaning and servicing. This appliance has adjustable legs.
HEARTH DIMENSIONS
The hearth should extend 150mm to the rear of the stove and 150mm to both sides and 30cm to the front.

Flue Outlet
FLUE - VERTICAL EXTERNAL OR INTERNAL CHIMNEY
The flue arrangement shown is the best solution for evacuating smoke, even when the ventilator is off (no power supply, or lock out flame). Any installation must comply with current building regulations. The minimum 2m level difference between the roof outlet and the T fitting inside or outside the building, ensures a minimum vacuum inside the stove, thus preventing smoke issue into the room.
External flues must be insulated: for example by using double-wall flue pipes.
The figure shows the recommended arrangement for flue outlets above roof level. In all cases, there must be a T fitting with inspection plug. The flue duct must be suitably fastened and fitted with a chimney pot for rain protection.
SAFETY WARNINGS
This appliance is not suitable for connection to a shared flue.
The stove must be placed on a non combustible hearth. If it is to be supported on a combustible floor surface, it must be supported on a floor-protection plate of at least the size shown in 3.1. It must be at least 8mm thick.
The appliance must be connected to a chimney suitable for solid fuels with a minimum diameter of 100mm and with a minimum length of 2m from the appliance flue outlet.
For insulating and sealing the pipes, use only heat­resistant materials (250° C).
The through-holes in walls or floors must always have an insulated tube or ventilation passage, so that it is always possible to disassemble the chimney components for cleaning and inspection, and to prevent contact between these components and wall masonry or inflammable surfaces.
It is useful to have planned inspections of the pipe bends for periodic maintenance of the flue duct. The smoke outlet pipe must be protected against rainwater ingress.

Where it is necessary to have a horizontal length of pipe, there must be a minimum positive gradient of 3% along its length.
Do not run flue pipe in a totally horizontal plain or in a reverse gradient.
Do not install the smoke outlet at pavement level, on public streets, car-parks or anywhere that might cause annoyance to people and/or animals.
The flue must be installed with the outlet above roof level complying with current building regulations. A maximum flue length of 8 metres is allowed. For each 90° bend or T fitting, reduce the length by one metre. A minimum flue draught of 10 Pascals is required.
IMPORTANT: All sections of the flue pipe must be accessible for inspection, and allow for internal cleaning, removal or substitution.
Do not place a net or grill over the flue outlet. When they become dirty they will obstruct the outlet and cause poor combustion, and the stove may be blocked with soot.
COMBUSTION AIR
The process of combustion requires oxygen, and therefore air. When in operation, the stove draws air from the room in which it is installed; poor combustion may therefore result if the room is insufficiently ventilated.
To resolve this problem, a suitable vent hole must be provided to allow a permanent supply of fresh air from the outside. The cross-section of the vent must be 6cm² for each kW of energy consumed at maximum input therefore the ventilation hole must have a cross-sectional area of 83cm² if a flue draught stabiliser is fitted. If no flue draught stabiliser is fitted the ventilation requirement is 44cm².
If the stove is located in a room containing another appliance cooker hood or extractor fan, it is essential to provide ventilation equivalent to the sum of the air requirement for all appliances.
The vent must not be placed directly beside the appliance in order to avoid drawing in air that is too cold: at certain times of the year when the appliance is very cold, the stove may be locked out when you first attempt to light it. If this occurs, the situation should be considered absolutely normal, and you can unlock the stove using the switch #4 located on the control panel. Then switch on again.

INITIAL COMMISSIONING
It is vital that the installation of the AGA Fusion Pellet stove is in accordance to manufacturer’s instructions.
On commissioning the appliance it is important that the Auger is filled with pellets prior to firing.
To do this the fire door must be closed:
a) Fill the hopper with 6mm diameter pellets
taking care to keep sawdust in the bag.
b) Turn the power ON to the appliance and press
the power switch ON (located on the back of the unit).
c) Press and hold button 4 for 4 seconds to turn
the unit ON (this will activate the fan required to activate the air pressure switch), then re­press button 4 for 4 seconds to turn the unit OFF. Leave the mains power onto the appliance.
d) Press buttons 5 and 6 together, this will
activate the Auger, hold the buttons until pellets are seen to enter the burner from the pellet chute, the Auger should now be loaded.
e) Remove pellets from the burner pot.
The stove has sequence settings which are factory-set by the manufacturer and these should not be altered.
However these must be checked during initial commissioning before firing. To do this press button 3 a number of times until UT01 shows. If the lower display shows OFF then you will need to set the correct day and time (See Page 10).
Day 1 - Monday Day 2 - Tuesday Day 3 - Wednesday Day 4 - Thursday Day 5 - Friday Day 6 - Saturday Day 7 - Sunday
1. Press button 3 until UT04 shows on the upper display.
2. Press buttons 1 or 2 until A9 shows on the lower display, then press button 3.
3. The upper display should show Pr 01 and its setting shows on the lower display. Should its setting be incorrect, change the setting using buttons 1 or 2. Once confirmed as correct press button 3 to check the next setting, Pr O2 etc ... there are 28 settings in total under A9.
Pr 01 - 18 Pr 02 - 5 Pr 03 - 30 Pr 04 - 2.5
Pr 05 - 1.5 Pr 06 - 1.5 Pr 07 - 2.0 Pr 08 - 2.5
Pr 09 - 3.0 Pr 10 - 4.0 Pr 11 - 60 Pr 12 - 60
Pr 13 - 60 Pr 14 - 259 Pr 15 - 80 Pr 16 - 2500
Pr 17 - 2600
Pr 18 - 1850 Pr 19 - 1900
Pr 20 - 1950 Pr 21 - 2050 Pr 22 - 2250
Pr 23 - 10 Pr 24 - 12 Pr 25 - 16 Pr 26 - 22
Pr 27 - 30 Pr 28 - 250
4. It is then necessary to check the settings on C9. This is reached in exactly the same way, by pressing buttons 1 or 2 then button 3 when C9 is reached. C9 settings are all set to zero.
Pr 56 - 0 Pr 57 - 0 Pr 58 - 0 Pr 59 - 0 Pr 60 - 0 Pr 61 - 0 Pr 62 - 0 Pr 63 - 0 Pr 64 - 0 Pr 65 - 0
5. Repeat the procedure for the D9 settings.
Pr 81 - 2150 Pr 82 - 2200 Pr 83 - 2250 Pr 84 - 2350 Pr 85 - 2550
6. If you pause longer than 60 seconds when checking these settings you will need to return to step 1, then go to where you left off.

SAFETY AND CORRECT USE OF THE APPLIANCE
Before switching on for the first time, read the following safety instructions.
1. Some parts of the stove become hot (door, glass, flue, etc.), and contact with these parts may cause burns.
2. Do not place combustible or inflammable material beside the stove, and never at less than 1 metre.
3. Do not store bags of pellets close to the stove.
4. Your stove burns pellets only - it is not an incinerator. It is forbidden to burn other materials or household waste as fuel.
5. When loading pellets into the tank, avoid pouring sawdust along with them. Failure to follow this instruction may make the appliance unsafe, and void all warranties.
6. Keep children away from the stove. Do not open the door when the stove is lit.
7. Do not switch off the electric power supply while the stove is on. This will cause the smoke extractor fan to stop, and the burning fuel will cause smoke to issue into the room if there is no natural upward draught in the chimney.
8. When the stove is lit for the first time, the varnish may release fumes, and these may emit an unpleasant odour. The room must therefore be ventilated to evacuate these fumes. The varnish will be fully hardened after several heating cycles (2-3). On first lighting the stove may lockout as there is no pellet in the feed. The display will show ALARM NO FIRE. The stove has to be switched off and on again to reset.
9. Periodically ensure that the gaskets between stove and flue pipe are gas tight.
10. In case of fire switch off the stove, move any flammable materials away, and call the fire services.
IN CASE OF CHIMNEY FIRE
Switch off appliance and close all openings into the stove, watch for ignition of adjacent combustibles from hot embers or sparks from chimney.
FUEL
WHAT ARE PELLETS?
PELLETS consist of sawdust or real wood scraps ground and pressed into small cylinders about 6 mm in diameter and 20-30 mm in length.
As fuel, pellets are completely environmentally friendly, as they are made entirely of natural wood, without glue or other chemical compounds. Pellets have a high calorific value (4.7 to 5.3 kW/kg), and low moisture content.
IMPORTANT: Pellets must be stored in a dry place. Use only good quality pellets, without sawdust.
IMPORTANT NOTICE: The small quantities of sawdust normally present at the bottom of the bags should not be emptied into the tank, but should be held inside the bag while pouring the pellets carefully so that the sawdust remains inside.
If sawdust accumulates in the tank, it should be removed periodically with a vacuum cleaner (with the door open and disconnecting the power plug from the electricity supply), to prevent it entering the loading system and causing serious malfunctions.
IMPORTANT: If, during a loading operation, or for any other reason, foreign matter is allowed to enter the tank and then the pellet loader, it may cause damage to the internal mechanisms.
Besides causing damage, this would cause the stove to stop. In this case, the manufacturer cannot accept any liability.
ONLY 6mm DIAMETER PELLET MUST BE USED
DO NOT USE POOR QUALITY PELLETS OR RE­PROCESSED PELLETS WITH HIGH SAWDUST CONTENT. THIS TYPE OF PELLET CAN SERIOUSLY IMPAIR THE FUNCTIONS IN YOUR STOVE, VOID THE WARRANTY AND THEREFORE RELEASE THE MANUFACTURER FROM ALL LIABILITY.
PELLET LOADING
The pellet tank capacity is 25 Kg. To load, lift the pellet tank lid, and pour in the pellets, taking care to keep any sawdust inside the bags.
Close the lid when loading is complete.
IMPORTANT: LOADING MUST BE CARRIED OUT ONLY WHEN THE STOVE IS OFF AND HAS COOLED DOWN.
When pellets are used up, the stove cannot work and is therefore locked out, the display shows “ALARM NO FIRE”.
When refilling with pellet at this point it will take a little while for the pellet to come through so the fire may go to lockout again. This is normal and will light normally once the pellet has started to feed, probably at the second attempt.

Cleaning cycle
Every 60 minutes the Fusion stove will speed its flue fan up for 60 seconds, this is to help keep the glass from staining during operation.
The cleaning LED illuminates on the left hand side of the display.
The flue fan speeds vary during cleaning, dependent upon the chosen power setting:
Power setting 1 - 2150rpm Power setting 2 - 2200rpm Power setting 3 - 2250rpm Power setting 4 - 2350rpm Power setting 5 - 2550rpm
ECO Setting
Should the unit be kept in ECO mode for 250 seconds the Fusion stove will turn itself off. Should the temperature drop below the temperature setting and the timer be calling for heating as set by the user, the stove will restart, after completing its full shut down cycle.
Operation: (Please refer to diagram on Page 12)
a) To start the stove press button 4 for 4 seconds.
The appliance will then energise the flue fan, the glow coil LED will light and FAN CAND will show on the panel.
b) After allowing approximately two minutes for the
glow coil to heat up the auger energises (timed) to load the pellets and LOAD WOOD appears on the LED display and the green LED on the right hand side of the display flashes indicating auger in operation. This phase will continue until 60°C is sensed in the flue by the flue thermistor.
At any time it is possible to read what temperature the flue thermistor is sensing by pressing and holding button 1. The lower display shows the temperature, the upper figure shows the fan speed.
c) Once 60°C has been sensed in the flue the stove
enters its stabilisation stage (5 minutes), FIRE ON is displayed on the LED display, the glow coil is de-energised and the stove will run at the chosen power setting.
d) The circulation fan will turn on when 80°C has
been sensed at the flue thermistor, the fan speed will run as per the chosen settings.
e) If the pellets are not lit within 15 minutes; the
stove displays the message ALARM NO FIRE. This is normal at first start up if the auger is empty and has not been loaded as described in the commissioning instruction. Switch OFF and ON again to reset, making sure there are pellets in the hopper.
When the stove reaches the chosen room temperature setting the LED display shows ECO and the unit goes into ECO mode. This is the same as user setting no. 1.

When using two event programming allow at least 30 minutes between the end of the first event to the start of the second event.
If the stove is not required to work automatically set UT01 to OFF. In this case the stove ignores all other settings and will maintain the set room temperature. If the remote thermostat is connected this will take priority for the temperature setting.
When the stove is off, pressing and holding button 1 or 2 will show the heating setting of the stove when lit. This will either display ECO if the room temperature is at or above the set temperature or the heat setting 1-5 as previously set.
If the flue gas temperature rises above 260°C, them stove goes into economy mode and the message ECO is displayed. This message is also displayed when the selected room temperature has been reached.

Switching OFF and shut down
The stove can be switched off in different ways:
1. Manually (putting the On/Off switch on the back of the stove in the Off position).
2. By actuation of a room thermostat, if this is connected.
3. By a timer program.
Press button 4 for 4 seconds. OFF will appear in the display. During shut down the stove will de-energise the auger which in turn will stop feeding pellets into the burner, the flue fan and circulation fan will run at full rate and the stove will go through its cleaning cycle, the fans will stop when the flue thermistor drops below 60°C.
Electrical Power Failure
If there is an electrical power failure, when power is restored, the stove expels any remaining smoke and resumes the working program from the point at which it stopped. It can only do this if the electrical power was lost for a few minutes. If the stove has cooled down during the power failure, the control unit puts the stove back into the ignition phase and re-starts the program from the beginning.

MANAGING ALARMS
An alarm indication may appear in one of the following cases (the alarm can be cleared by pressing button 4 “ON OFF”:
- Flue gas temperature probe alarm
If there is a fault in the flue gas temperature probe, the message “ALARM SOND FUMI” appears and the ventilator and extractor fan are switched on at maximum speed.
- Flue gas over-temperature alarm
If the flue gas temperature rises above 280° C, the message “ALARM HOT TEMP” appears and ventilator and extractor fan remain lit until the decrease of flue temperature.
- Ignition failure alarm
- Extractor alarm (if this option is available)
This appears if the initial attempt to ignite has failed, or if stove temperature is too low for operation, even after the full ignition period has elapsed. The message “ALARM NO FIRE” is displayed and the extractor fan remains lit for a pre-set time until the stove is completely switched off.
- Pressostat alarm
Incase the exchanger gets dirty or the chimney is obstructed, the safety pressostat switches the motor auger off (stops the fuel).
In certain weather conditions, the Pressostat switch can operate even if there is no malfunction of the stove. This can be caused by a low flue draught. This is a normal event. There is no problem with the stove. If the problem persists check the flue for gas tightness and draught.
- Safety thermostat alarm
In case of high stove temperature, the safety thermostat operates and shows on the display the following notice: ‘ALARM TERM SICC’. To restart the stove, wait until cool and reset it as shown in Fig. 10.

ATTENTION: the thermostat has to be reset by hand. The control panel is situated in the lower rear part of the stove.
N.B. the thermostat does not unlock until the stove has cooled completely.
If the thermostat reset has been successful, a click can be heard immediately. Also refer to Safety Devices Section 4 page 15. Before every new ignition, verify that the burn pot is completely empty. If not, clean it immediately.
The alarm signals can be cancelled by switching off and on the stove with button No.4 situated in the frontal panel of the stove.
Ensure air inlet and flue gas outlet are clear from obstructions before operation of the stove.
If the flue gas temperature rises above 260°C, the stove goes into Economy mode and the message
appears on the display.
The message also appears when the selected room temperature has been reached.
N.B.: Method 1 is used to carry out maintenance or to switch off the stove permanently at the end of the cold season. Never switch off the stove while it is in operation, either by cutting off the current at the plug or at the switch located on the back of the stove.
This will cause the smoke extractor fan to stop immediately, causing smoke to issue into the room if there is no natural upward draught in the chimney.
After switching off the stove on the front panel, or using the remote control (if this option is present), wait for 15 minutes cooling time to elapse before attempting to start again. The stove may not re-light if it has not cooled sufficiently.
During the switch-off phase, the smoke extraction motor continues to run until the stove is cooled, then switches off automatically. Similarly, the room air ventilator continues running until the stove has cooled (the ventilator may switch off and then on again if there is still some heat in the stove).
SAFETY DEVICES
1. Flue Gas Extraction Motor Failure
If the flue gas extractor stops, a pressure switch immediately stops the pellet supply.
2. Flue Gas Outlet Safety Device
If the flue gas outlet is obstructed, the pressure switch prevents fuel from entering the burn pot.
3. Pellet Loading Gear Motor Failure or Blockage
If the gear motor stops, the stove continues to operate until it starts to cool down. The system will attempt to start up the stove, and if the fault persists the stove will stop completely and lock out.
4. Hot Air Distribution Ventilator Failure
When the temperature at the end of the loader reaches 105°C, a safety thermostat stops the gear motor, causing the stove to switch off.
If the thermostat is activated, it must be reset using the special control (protected by a screw plug) on the back of the stove under the main switch and protection fuse.
If the thermostat is actuated again and causes the stove to stop, contact your service engineer.
5. Temporary Electrical Power Failure
If there is a temporary power failure while the stove is in operation, the appliance will come on again automatically. If the power failure is longer lasting, the smoke extractor stops running and the stove may therefore emit smoke into the room.
6. Electrical Safety
The stove is protected by a main fuse located on the rear panel.
CLEANING OF THE STOVE
IMPORTANT: before starting to clean the stove,
check that it is switched off and completely cooled and that the electrical power supply is disconnected.
ASHPAN AND BURN POT
WARNING: Do not vacuum hot cinders as they may cause a fire in the cleaner.
The burn pot must be cleaned every day. Pull it out manually by lifting, and empty the accumulated ash. When re-inserting the burn pot, check that it is the right way round, with the hole for the igniter plug facing towards the inside of the stove.
Every two or three days, clear the grid at the bottom of the combustion chamber, take out the drawer, empty it and replace in the correct position. Finish off cleaning the inside of the chamber using a vacuum cleaner. We recommend emptying the lower ashpan periodically, as described in the following paragraphs. It may be necessary to vacuum the small chamber beneath the burn pot.
IMPORTANT: All cleaning and maintenance operations must be carried out when the stove is cold. These cleaning operations ensure that the appliance continues to work efficiently and correctly. The required frequency of cleaning operations depends very much on the quality of the pellets used. We recommend using only tested, good quality pellets.
After the cold season has ended, the exchanger must be cleaned. This operation may be required more often, depending on the pellet quality, but this should not be considered a sign that the stove is not functioning correctly.
15
We suggest you carry out this operation after the cold season has finished.
CLEANING THE FLUE
Whenever this is found to be necessary (and at least once a year) vacuum and clean all flue ducts to prevent the build up of particulate matter. It is important not to obstruct the passage of the flue gasses.
IMPORTANT: Ensure that the flue pipe gaskets are gas tight. Where they are not in good condition replace them immediately. Do not use flexible flue pipe.
FAILURE TO CLEAN THE FLUE MAY AFFECT THE SAFE OPERATION OF THE STOVE.
END OF SEASON
We advise using up all pellets remaining in the tank in order to prevent condensation from forming and thus clogging and blocking the feeder motor.
Pellets and sawdust remaining at the bottom of the tank should be removed using a vacuum cleaner. If there are substantial amounts of sawdust, we recommend checking the quality of the pellets used to fuel the stove.
This operation is carried out with the stove off and cool, and the power supply plug disconnected.
CAUTION: Do not vacuum hot cinders as they may cause a fire in the vacuum cleaner.
GLASS
The glass will self clean when there is sufficient heat generated by the burning fuel. If a build-up of deposits occur on the glass it may be due to draft conditions, poor quality fuel or very low burning for a long time. It is best to clean the glass when it is thoroughly cooled. A deposit of ash will usually wipe away with a dry cloth.
PERIODIC CLEANING OF THE STOVE AND HEAT EXCHANGER CLEANING
The stove and heat exchanger must be cleaned periodically, and exclusively by authorised personnel.
For seasonal stove cleaning, remove the panel below the door by pulling it outwards. Loosen the 4 screws which fasten the access cover to the combustion chamber and using a vacuum cleaner, clean the inside part being careful to vacuum in the internal corners. After cleaning, reposition the cover (replacing the old seal with a new one), and fit the below-the-door cover back on by simply fastening it onto the combustion chamber.

CLEANING THE ASHPAN
Open the panel, remove the ashpan, empty it and re-insert correctly. This operation is usually carried out once per week, and more often if required.

ANNUAL SERVICING
When conducting the annual service it is advisable to have the main flue and chimney system swept and cleaned at the same time.
Isolate the electrical supply to the stove and ensure that the unit is cold.
Remove the top access panel and essence bowl and clean out the top airway. See Fig. 11.
Lift out the ashpan and burn pot.
Unfasten and lift out the firebox lining (3 screws). See Fig. 13.
Thoroughly brush the heat exchanger to remove deposits and clean out the firebox.

PROBLEM / CAUSE SOLUTION
Problem Pellet loader blocked
Causes Poor quality pellets, sawdust included accidentally or pellet stuck and obstructing the
feeder slide to the burner, possibly causing the loading auger to become blocked.
Solutions The problem can often be resolved without calling technical support, simply by
inserting a flexible steel rod inside the pellet loading tube once the stove is off and has cooled. In this way, the blocked pellet can be made to fall into the burn pot, thus unblocking the auger. This operation is carried out with the stove off and the power supply plug disconnected.
Problem While the stove is in operation, the pellet loading indicator light comes on, but no
pellets fall into the burn pot.
Cause * Air exchanger ventilator dirty
* Air exchanger ventilator broken * Stove overheating and safety thermostat was activated * Flue obstructed or draught diverter grill clogged
Solution * Call technical support service
* Call technical support service * Call technical support service * Clean the whole flue - remove draught diverter and grill
If the problem cannot be resolved, please contact the Installer.
