PRE-START-UP CHECK
Remove burn pot, making sure it is clean and none of the
air holes are plugged. Clean the firebox, and then reinstall
burn pot. Clean door glass if necessary (a dry cloth or
paper towel is usually sufficient). Never use abrasive
cleaners on the glass or door. Check fuel in the hopper,
and refill if necessary.
BUILDING A FIRE
Never use a grate or other means of supporting the fuel.
Use only the burn pot supplied with this heater. Hopper lid
must be closed in order for the unit to feed pellets. During
the start-up period:
•
Make sure the burn pot is free of pellets.
•
DO NOT open the viewing door.
• The damper may need to be closed during startup.
•
DO NOT add pellets to the burn pot by hand.
NOTE: During the first few fires, your stove will emit an odor
as the high-temperature paint cures or becomes seasoned
to the metal. Maintaining smaller fires will minimize this.
Avoid placing items on the stovetop during this period
because the paint could be affected. Attempts to achieve
heat output rates that exceed heater design specifications
can result in permanent damage to the heater.
IGNITOR
1.
Fill hopper and clean burn pot.
2.
Press the “On/Off” button. Make sure the green light
comes on.
3.
Adjust the feed rate to the desired setting by pressing
the “Heat Level Advance” button.
If the fire doesn’t start in 12 minutes, press “On/Off”, wait
a few minutes, clear the burn pot, and start the procedure
again.
OPENING DOOR
CAUTION:
• DO NOT OPERATE YOUR STOVE WITH THE VIEWING
DOOR OPEN. THE AUGER WILL NOT FEED PELLETS
UNDER THESE CIRCUMSTANCES AND A SAFETY
CONCERN MAY ARISE FROM SPARKS OR FUMES
ENTERING THE ROOM.
• THE DOOR MUST BE CLOSED AND SEALED DURING
OPERATION.
If the door is opened while the stove is in operation it must
be closed within 30 seconds or the stove will shut down. If
the stove shuts down push the “On/Off” button to re-start
your stove. The stove will have to fully shut down and turn
off before you will be able to restart the stove.
ROOM AIR FAN
When starting your stove the Room Air Fan will not come
on until the stove’s heat exchanger warms up. This usually
takes about 10 minutes from start-up.
IF STOVE RUNS OUT OF PELLETS
The fire goes out and the auger motor and blowers will run
until the stove cools. This will take 30 minutes or longer
depending on the heat remaining in the appliance. After
the stove components stop running all lights on the display
will go out and the two digit display will begin flashing “E3”
REFUELLING
WARNING:
• KEEP HOPPER LID CLOSED AT ALL TIMES EXCEPT
WHEN REFILLING.
• DO NOT OVERFILL HOPPER.
CAUTION:
• THE HOPPER AND STOVE TOP WILL BE HOT
DURING OPERATION; THEREFORE, YOU SHOULD
ALWAYS USE SOME TYPE OF HAND PROTECTION
WHEN REFUELING YOUR STOVE.
• DO NOT TOUCH THE HOT SURFACES OF THE STOVE.
EDUCATE ALL CHILDREN ON THE DANGERS OF A
HIGH-TEMPERATURE STOVE. YOUNG CHILDREN
SHOULD BE SUPERVISED WHEN THEY ARE IN THE
SAME ROOM AS THE STOVE.
• NEVER PLACE YOUR HAND NEAR THE AUGER
WHILE THE STOVE IS IN OPERATION.
• WE RECOMMEND THAT YOU NOT LET THE HOPPER
DROP BELOW 1/4 FULL.
