BASIC OPERATION
DO NOT start your stove until the venting
installation is complete
NOTE:
Your pellet stove is exclusively for burning
pellets made from wood of a controlled quality.
Non-pelletized solid fuels (straw, corn, chopped
matter, etc.) should not be used. Failure to adhere
to these guidelines will void your warranty.
NOTE:
When operated correctly, your pellet stove
will not overheat. Improper operation can shorten
the life expectancy of the stove and its components.
ATTENTION
: Your stove’s automatic ignition
system will not work properly if either the hopper lid
or combustion door are open.
CONTROL UNIT PROGRAMMING AND
FUNCTION
Your pellet stove is equipped with a modern
programmable control board and control software.
The owner can set all equipment functions via the
control keypad which is found on the right hand side

unauthorized changes to your stove, unless outlined
