K. Fire Characteristics
The overall height of the flame will vary throughout the burn
for a couple of reasons:
1.
The flame will vary based on type of fuel or batch
of fuel.
2. The unit adjusts the burn rate according to the dial
setting – the further the dial is rotated clockwise the
higher the flame and consequently, heat output.
3. General maintenance and cleaning. Infrequent or poor
general maintenance will result in poorer performance.
Indicators for additional maintenance activities include:
-
Lazy flame
-
Black-sooted glass
- Pellets not igniting
-
Excess pellets fall ing to the side of the fire pot
4. See trim adjustment section for additional information.
NOTICE:
If you expect children to come into contact
with this appliance, we recommend a barrier
such as a decorative screen. See your retailer
for suggestions.
I. Fire pot Purge
Purpose: To help remove debris from the fire pot and help
the unit burn as efficient as possible.
The frequency of the purge cycle is once every 30 minutes
while the unit is burning. During the fire pot purge, the feed
is reduced to the lowest setting and the exhaust blower
ramps up to a very high setting. The purge cycle lasts 99
seconds.
The purge cycle does not replace daily cleaning.
J. Shutdown
To shut the appliance down, turn the user interface to
OFF from the main menu. During the shutdown process,
the user interface will read shutdown. Once shutdown is
established the user interface will read standby.
Unlike the fire pot purge, during shutdown existing fuel in
the fire pot will continue to burn without the feed motor run-
ning; but, the exhaust and convection blowers will remain
on until the exhaust has cooled.
HOT WHILE IN OPERATION. KEEP CHILDREN,
CLOTHING AND FURNITURE AWAY. CONTACT MAY
CAUSE SKIN BURNS.
CAUTION
NOTE:
If maintenance or daily cleaning is going to be
conducted immediately following a shutdown,
please use caution as components especially
those inside the firebox may still be hot.

M. Restarting the Appliance
Restart Process:
1. When the unit has run out of fuel and the “feed error”
code is displayed, add pellet fuel to the hopper.
2.
Dump the ashes and clinkers built up in the fire pot by
pulling the ash dump removal handle out several times.
Make sure clinkers have dropped into the ash pan then
return the handle to fully closed position.
3. If needed perform a manual feed; refer to section on
manual feed.
Restarting After a Power Failure:
1. For an electrical disruption the appliance will start on
its own without need for manual feed - providing the
control system is asking for heat.
2. The appliance will always go through a normal
shutdown sequence before restarting.
