PRE-BURN INSTRUCTIONS: The burn pot liner holes must be clear and the liner installed correctly
against the ignitor tube for proper operation. Check the hopper for enough pellets to start the unit.
DO NOT OPERATE THE UNIT WITH THE DOOR OR ASH PAN OPEN.
MANUAL MODE:
To START: Press the ON / OFF button. The stove will turn on. The system light will flash. The Auger
Light will flash with each pulse of the auger (the Auger Feed Rate is pre-programmed during start-up).
The Heat Level Indicator will show the Heat Level that the stove will run at after start-up.
If this is the first time the unit has been started or the unit has run out of fuel, the auger will need to
be primed. Press the Manual Auger Feed button until fuel starts to drop into the Burn Pot Liner (see

”).
To OPERATE: When a fire has been established, the System Light will turn solid (after approximately 10
- 15 minutes) and the Auger Light will continue to flash to the corresponding Heat Level setting. The Heat
Level button can now be pressed at this time to change the desired Heat Level Output setting.
The convection blower (room air blower) will turn on. The speed of this blower is controlled by the setting
of the heat level output indicator.
When operating on LOW HEAT LEVEL, the feed rate can be adjusted, using the auger trim, for different
quality fuels. These settings can be used if the fire keeps going out on low (for poor quality fuel) or if the
low setting is too hot for the room (see “O

THERMOSTAT / SWITCH MODE:
INITIAL START-UP: See above
OPERATION - HI / LOW mode: When the thermostat contacts are closed the stove settings are
adjustable as per Manual Mode (see above). When the thermostat contacts open, the circuit board
will take control of the settings. The stove will drop down to a low burn until the thermostat contacts
close again. This low burn setting can be adjusted for different fuel qualities (see “O

”). The stove will come back to the previous HEAT LEVEL setting when the
thermostat contacts close again.
OPERATION – ON / OFF mode: When the thermostat contacts close, the unit will light automatically.
Once up to temperature, the stove operates the same as in manual mode (see above). When the
thermostat contacts open, the unit automatically begins its shutdown routine. The stove will re-light
when the thermostat contacts close again.
