Do not operate your stove if you smell smoke 
coming from it.  Turn it off, monitor it, and call your 
dealer.

Never use gasoline, gasoline-type lantern fuel, kero-
sene, charcoal lighter 

fl

 uid, or similar liquids to start 

or “freshen up” a 

fi

 re in this stove. Keep all such 

liquids well away from the stove while in use.
Never block free air

fl

 ow through the open vents of 

the stove.

Keep foreign objects out of the hopper.

The stove will not operate during a power outage. 
If an outage does occur, check the stove for smoke 
spillage and open a window if any smoke spills into 
the room.

Disconnect the power cord before performing any 
maintenance or repairs on the stove.
NOTE: Turning the stove “off” does not disconnect 
all power from the stove.

During the start up period; 

1) DO NOT

 open the 

viewing door; 

2) DO NOT

 open the damper more 

than ¼”; 

3) DO NOT

 add pellets to the burnpot by 

hand; 

4) DO NOT

 use the Fuel Feed button (unless 

you are priming the auger after running out of pel-
lets) as a dangerous condition could result.

Do not unplug the stove if you suspect a malfunc-
tion. Turn the stove off, periodically inspect it, and 
call your dealer.

Never try to repair or replace any part of the stove 
unless instructions are given in this manual. All 
other work should be done by a trained techni-
cian.
Do not throw this manual away. This manual has 
important operating and maintenance instructions 
that you will need at a later time. Always follow the 
instructions in this manual.
Do not place clothing or other 

fl

 ammable items on 

or near the stove.

The viewing door must be closed and latched 
during operation.

Do not operate the stove if the 

fl

 ame becomes 

dark and sooty or if the burnpot over

fi

 lls with 

pellets. Turn the stove off, periodically inspect it, 
and call your dealer.
Hot while in operation. Keep children, clothing, 
and furniture away. Contact may cause skin 
burns. Educate all children of the danger of a 
high temperature stove. Young children should be 
supervised when they are in the same room as 
the stove.
If the stove is installed in a room without air 
conditioning, or in an area where direct sunlight 
can shine on the unit, it is possible this can cause 
the temperature of the stove to rise to operational 
levels; one of the sensors could then make the 
stove start on its own. It is recommended that the 
stove be unplugged when not in use for extended 
amounts of time (i.e. during the summer months).

Contact your local building of

fi

 cials to obtain a per-

mit and information on any installation restrictions 
or inspection requirements in your area. Notify your 
insurance company of this stove as well.

This unit must be properly installed to prevent the 
possibility of a house 

fi

 re. The instructions must be 

strictly adhered to. Do not use makeshift methods or 
compromise in the installation.

Your stove requires periodic maintenance and 
cleaning. Failure to maintain your stove may lead to 
smoke spillage in your home.

This stove must be connected to a standard 120 
V., 60 Hz grounded electrical outlet. Do not use an 
adapter plug or sever the grounding plug. Do not 
route the electrical cord underneath, in front of, or 
over the stove.

The exhaust system should be checked, at a min-
imum, at least twice a year for any build up of soot 
or creosote.

This is a pressurized exhaust system. We sug-
gest sealing all vent connector joints with 500°F 
(260°C) RTV silicone sealant to ensure consistent 
performance and to avoid smoke spillage. We 
also suggest that all horizontal connector joints be 
sealed with UL-181-AP foil tape.

Allow the stove to cool before carrying out any 
maintenance or cleaning. Ashes must be disposed 
in a metal container with a tight lid and placed 
on a no combustible surface well away from the 
home structure.

This stove is designed and approved for pelletized 
wood fuel only. Any other type of fuel burned in 
this heater will void the warranty and safety listing.

When installed in a mobile home, the stove must 
be bolted to the 

fl

 oor, have outside air, and 

NOT 

BE INSTALLED IN A BEDROOM

 (Per H.U.D. 

requirements). Check with local building of

fi

 cials.

This Company grants no warranty, implied or 
stated, for the installation or maintenance of 
your stove, and assumes no responsibility of 
any consequential damage(s).
