E. Before Your First Fire
1.
First, make sure your appliance has been properly
installed and that all safety requirements have been
met. Pay particular attention to the fire protection
and venting.
2.
Double check that the firebox is empty and the fire pot
floor is fully closed.
3. Close and latch the door.

HEATING
H. Startup
The unit will go into the ignition sequence followed by a
start up sequence (the user interface will read startup).
The ignition sequence involves the exhaust blower and
igniter turning on, and the feed motor running in two stages.
The first stage involves the feed motor running continu ously
for about a minute to start loading pellets into the fire pot.
In the second stage, the feed motor will begin cycling on
and off.
When the pellets are warming - on the verge of igniting - it
is not uncommon for the firebox to fill with smoke.
Once ignition happens, the smoke should quickly
disappear. During this stage, as well as any part during the
burn process, the front door should not be opened.
This startup cycle continues until the unit senses ignition
by a rise in the exhaust temperature or the unit times out.
Following the ignition cycle the unit continues to feed
pellets to build up the fire.
After warming up, the convection blower will begin to blow
warm air into the room. As the appliance increases heat the
blower will increase its output.
F. Filling the Hopper
Open the hopper lid by lifting the handle. Fill the hopper
with fuel. Close the hopper lid. The unit will not feed with
the hopper lid open and the fire will go out.
G. User Interface
The appliance comes with a user interface and Bluetooth
key, both need to connected for the appliance to operate.
Reference user interface manual supplied for installation
and operation instructions
(Figure 10.1).
Odors and vapors released during initial operation.
• Curing of high temperature paint.
•
Open windows for air circulation.
•
Odors may be irritating to sensitive individuals.
CAUTION
Size
• Pellets are either 1/4 inch or 5/16 inch (6-8mm) in
diameter
• Length should be no more that 1-1/2 inches (38mm)
• Pellet lengths can vary from lot to lot from the same
manufacturer
• Due to length variations, the feed rate may need
adjusting occasionally
Performance
•
Higher ash content requires the fire pot and the ash
drawer to be emptied more frequently
• Hardwoods require more air to burn properly
• Premium wood pellets produce the highest heat output
• Burning pellets longer than 1-1/2 inches (38mm) can
cause an inconsistent fuel feed rate and/or missed
ignitions or feed jams.
Storage
• Wood pellets should be left in their original sealed bag
until using to prevent moisture absorption
• Do not store any pellet fuel within the clearance
requirements or in an area that would hinder routine
cleaning and maintenance
Tested and approved for wood pellets. Burning of any
other type of fuel voids your warranty.
