RECAUTIONS
o Do not operate the heater if you smell smoke coming from the heater. Push the “OFF” Touch pad,
monitor your heater, and call your dealer.
o Never use gasoline, gasoline-type lantern fuel, kerosene, charcoal lighter fluid, or similar liquids to start or
’freshen up’ a fire in this heater. Keep all such liquids well away from the heater while it is in use.
o Don’t unplug the heater if you suspect a malfunction. Push the “OFF” Touch pad and inspect the heater.
o Do not operate the heater if the flame becomes dark & sooty or if the firepot overfills with pellets. Push the
”OFF” Touch pad and periodically inspect the heater (see ”Operating Your Stove”).
o Never try to repair or replace any part of the heater unless instructions for consumer are given in this manual.
All other work should be done by a trained technician.
o The viewing door and ash pan must be closed and latched during operation.
o Never block free airflow through the open vents of the unit.
o Contact your local building officials to obtain a permit and information on any installation restrictions or
inspection requirements in your area. Notify your insurance company of this heater as well.
o The pellet appliance exhaust system works with negative combustion chamber pressure and a slightly
positive chimney pressure, therefore the exhaust system must be completely airtight and properly installed.
All pellet vent joints must be sealed with HI-TEMP RTV silicone sealant and at least 3 sheet metal screws, to
each other as well as to the heater.
o This unit must be properly installed to prevent the possibility of a house fire. The instructions must be strictly
adhered to. Do not use makeshift methods, which may compromise the installation.
o Your heater requires periodic maintenance and cleaning (see ”Operating Your Stove”). Failure to maintain
your heater may lead to smoke spillage in your home.
o Allow the heater to cool before carrying out any maintenance or cleaning. Ashes must be disposed in a metal
container with a tight fitting lid. The closed container of ashes should be placed on a non-combustible surface
or on the ground, well away from all combustible materials, pending final disposal.
o This heater is designed and approved for pelletized wood fuel only. Any other type of fuel burned in this
heater will void the warranty and safety listing.
o The heater will not operate during a power outage. If a power outage does occur, check the heater for smoke
spillage and open a window if any smoke spills into the room.
o Keep foreign objects out of the hopper.
