PANEL CONTROLS

 

(See Figure 19) 

 

The blowers and automatic fuel supply are controlled from a panel on the left-hand side of the P2000. 

The control panel functions are as follows. 

 

a. 

ON/OFF SWITCH 

 

 

When pushed the stove will automatically ignite. No other firestarter is necessary. The igniter will 

stay on for at least 10 and up to 15 minutes, depending on when Proof of Fire is reached. The 

fire should start in about 5 to 7 minutes. 

 

The green light located above the On/Off button (in the On/Off box) will flash during the ignition 

start-up period. (See figure 19) 

 

The Heat Level Advance is inoperable during the ignition start period. When the green light 

continuously stays on the Heat Level Advance can be adjusted to achieve the desired heat 

output. 

 

NOTE:

 When not connected to a thermostat if the stove has been shut off, and you want to re-start it 

while it is still warm, the “on/off” button must be held down for 2 seconds. 

 

b. 

FUEL FEED SWITCH 

 

 

When the “Fuel Feed” button is pushed and held down the stove will feed pellets continuously 

into the burnpot. 

 

While the stove’s auger system is feeding pellets the green light (in the “Fuel Feed” box) will be 

illuminated. 

(See figure 19) 

 

CAUTION:

 DO NOT USE THIS CONTROL DURING NORMAL OPERATION BECAUSE IT COULD 

SMOTHER THE FIRE AND LEAD TO A DANGEROUS SITUATION. 

 
c. 

HIGH FAN SWITCH 

 

 

The room air fan speed varies directly with the feed rate. The “HIGH FAN” switch overrides this 

variable speed function. It will set the room air blower speed to high at any feed rate setting. 

 

When the “HIGH FAN” button is pushed the room air fan will switch to its highest setting. 

 

When this button is pushed again the room air fan will return to its original setting based on the 

Heat Level Advance setting. 

 

d. 

RESET TRIM 

 

Different size and quality pellet fuel, and installation altitude, may require adjustment of the “1” feed 

setting on the Heat Level Advance bar graph. 

This is usually a one-time adjustment based on the 

fuel you are using.

 The “RESET TRIM” button, when adjusted, will allow for 3 different feed rate 

settings for the 

#1 feed setting only

. To adjust simply push the “RESET TRIM” button while the 

stove is operating at setting “1” and watch the bar graph. 

 

 

When the “1” & “3” lights are illuminated on the bar graph the low feed rate is at its “lowest” 

setting. 

(Approx. 0.9 pounds per hour) 

 

When the “1” light is illuminated on the bar graph the low feed rate is at its “normal” setting. 

 

When the “1” & “4” lights are illuminated on the bar graph the low feed rate is at its “highest” 

setting. 

(Approx. 1.1 to 1.2 pounds per hour) 

 
NOTE:

 When the stove is set on “1” the “reset trim” values will be shown on the Heat Level Advance 

bar graph. For example if the Reset Trim is set to its lowest setting every time the stove is set to low 

the “1” and “4” lights will be illuminated on the bar graph. 

 
e. 

HEAT LEVEL ADVANCE 

 

 

This button when pushed will set the pellet feed rate, hence the heat output of your stove. The 

levels of heat output will incrementally change on the bar graph starting from level “1” to “5”. 

 

NOTE: 

When dropping 3 or more heat level settings (4 to 1, or 5 to 2 or 1) push the ‘High Fan’ button 

and allow the room air fan to run at that setting for at least 5 minutes to prevent the stove from 

tripping the high temp thermodisk. If the high temp thermodisk does trip see “

SAFETY FEATURES”

 

on the next page. 

 
CAUTION:

 THE “5” SETTING IS DESIGNED FOR TEMPORARY USE ONLY. IF USED FOR 

EXTENDED PERIODS, IT CAN SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCE THE LIFE EXPECTANCY OF THE 

ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS. AVOID USE AT THIS SETTING FOR MORE THAN ONE OR TWO 

HOURS AT A TIME.
