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.
F. Filling the Hopper
Open the hopper lid by lifting the handle. Fill the hopper
with fuel. Close the hopper lid. The appliance will not feed
with the hopper lid open and the fire will go out.
G. User Dial Control
The appliance has one dial control located on the side of
the appliance (behind a drop door) used for changing the
heat setting and restarting the appliance. There are five
heat settings on this dial ranging to include: LOW, MED-
LOW, MED, MED-HIGH, and HIGH.
Figure 10.1
Turn the dial control to the desired heat setting and turn the
appliance ON and OFF using the remote thermostat.
H. Normal Startup Sequence
The appliance will go into the ignition sequence followed by
a start up sequence (the green LED will flash rapidly).
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 one minute to begin 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 disap-
pear. 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 appliance senses igni-
tion by a rise in the exhaust temperature or the appliance
times out. Following the ignition cycle the appliance contin-
ues 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.
I. Fire pot Purge
Purpose:
To help remove debris from the fire pot and help
the appliance burn as efficient as possible.
The frequency of the purge cycle is once every 30 minutes
while the appliance is burning. During the fire pot purge, the
feed is reduced to the lowest setting and 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 dial control to OFF or
turn the thermostat to OFF. During the shutdown process,
the light will flash amber or green rapidly.
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.
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.
Due to safety precautions:
• If the dial control is turned to OFF and back on (even if
by mistake) the appliance will go through the shutdown
sequence before restarting.
• Additionally, if the remote thermostat is set to “OFF” or
“THERMOFF” during operation the appliance will go
through a shutdown sequence before restarting.
