SYSTEM SHUT DOWN
Simply push the “ON/OFF” button and hold for 5 seconds until the lights on the heat settings start to
flash from top to bottom. This designates the “cool down” cycle. The feed auger will shut off
immediately and the blowers will shut down when the unit has cooled off sufficiently.
The stove will remain in the cool down cycle until such time that the Intelli-Choice control board
senses that all temperature sensors have returned back to their “normal” startup state. Once this
occurs, the Intelli-Choice control panel will shut down all fans and turn off the system. Until shut off
is complete, the Intelli-Choice control panel will remain with its temperature lights moving in a
downward motion as the entire group of lights is turned on and each one turned off from top to bottom
to simulate a reduction in temperature.
HOT SYSTEM RESART
Should the operator decide to restart the pellet stove during the cool down cycle, simply push and hold
the “Red” arrow button down 15 seconds until the igniter (red) and auger (green) lights come on. This
initiates the “hot restart” mode has begun. The Intelli-Choice control panel will restart the stove by
turning on the igniter and feeding pellets into the burn pot.
IMPORTANT: If any changes have been made to the air damper setting during any of these shut off
procedures, it is important to monitor the hot restart until such time that the fire is properly burning.
Failure to properly set the air damper based on changes made in temperature settings can lead to “fuel
rich” or “fuel lean” operations. Either of these conditions requires attention by the operator to
properly correct before leaving the stove unattended. Once placed in the hot restart mode, the pellet
stove will automatically proceed into the burn cycle. Adjustment of the air damper may be required
depending on the cleanliness of the stove or other site specific conditions.
