:

• 

MANUAL and HI / LOW mode: To turn the unit OFF, simply press the ON / OFF button. This will stop 

the feed of pellets. The blowers will continue to operate and cool the stove down. When cool enough, 

the stove will turn off.

• 

AUTO / OFF mode: To turn the unit OFF, turn the thermostat down or off. NOTE: The unit will run on 

low for three (3) minutes before it turns off.

DO NOT unplug unit while Combustion fan is operating.  

This may lead to smoke escaping from the stove.

MANUAL MODE:
All control of circuit board function is adjusted at the circuit board.
To START: Press  the  ON /  OFF  button. The stove  will turn on. The 

system light will flash. The Auger Light will flash with each pulse of the 

auger (the Auger Feed Rate is pre-programmed during start-up). The 

Heat Level Indicator will show the Heat Level that the stove will run at 

after start-up and can be adjusted but the change will not take affect 

until the start -up has finished.
If this is the first time the unit has been started or the unit has run out 

of fuel, the auger will need to be primed. This can be done by restarting the unit five (5) minutes into its 

start-up or by putting a small hand full of pellets into the burnpot. 
To OPERATE: When a fire has been established, the System Light will turn solid (after approximately 10 

- 15 minutes) and the Auger Light will continue to flash to the corresponding Heat Level setting. 
The convection blower (room air blower) will turn on. The speed of this blower is controlled by the setting 

of the heat level output indicator. The convection blower can be turned OFF by depressing the convection 

blower control button. For the best efficiency the convection blower should be left on at all times.
