PRE-OPERATION

Once  the  stove  has  been  properly  installed  and
plugged into a grounded surge protector, you are
ready to begin operation.

PRIOR TO STARTING

Turn on the main power switch located on the
back of the stove.  

See Figure 20A

NOTE:  If  for  some  reason  the  stove  does  not
appear  to  be  powering  on,  there  is  a  fuse
located just below the power switch that can be
checked.  A  spare  fuse  is  located  inside  the
fuse holder if needed.  See Figure 20B

Make  sure  the  hopper  is  clean  and  free  of
foreign  matter,  including  pellet  fines  and  dust.
Fill  the  hopper  with  wood  pellets,  making  sure
that NO parts of the bag or any foreign objects
enter  the  hopper,  as  this  may  cause  harm  to
the auger feed system.  

See Figure 21

Also  take  care  to  ensure  there  is  no  pellet
material in the hopper lid seating surfaces.
Close  the  lid.  This  stove  has  a  safety  switch
that  will  not  allow  pellets  to  feed  with  the
hopper door open.
Ensure  the  main  glass  door  is  closed.  This
stove  has  a  safety  switch  that  will  not  allow
pellets  to  feed  unless  there  is  a  negative
pressure detected inside the stove.
Before  actually  starting  your  stove,  you  will
need  to  determine  which  operating  mode  you
would prefer the stove to run in. This stove can
operate in one of three modes.
Manual: In this mode, you can personally adjust
and  set  the  heating  power  level  to  control  the
heat level.
Thermostat  Control  (Temp):  In  this  mode,  you
can set the room temperature and the stove will
automatically  adjust  the  heating  power  level  to
maintain the desired temperature.
Weekly:  In  this  mode,  the  stove  will  work
automatically  during  days  and  times  you
predesignate.  You  can  have  a  program  for
each  of  the  7  days  of  the  week,  and  up  to  4
periods during the day.

You must select your mode before turning on the
stove.
Selecting  a  mode  while  the  stove  is  burning  may
cause the stove to shut down and may force a 30-
minute delay in restarting. You do not need to start
operation  of  the  stove  to  select  your  mode.  To
choose the mode, locate the mode transfer button
on the controller.  

(#6 in Figure 17)

Pressing  the  mode  button  once  selects  Temp
mode, pressing twice will select the Weekly mode,
pressing  a  third  time  will  return  you  back  to
Manual mode.

the stove when it is in use.
