6 Stove Operation
6.1 First Startup
Before starting your stove, make sure that the burn pot, the baffle and the maintenance
access panels are properly installed. Make sure that the stove has been emptied of all tools
and accessories (see Section 2.3: Before Operating Your Stove). Also make sure that the
venting system is properly sealed, that all doors and hopper lid are closed. Make sure that
the hopper is full of pellets. Press the auger button .
If fire doesn’t start within 20 minutes, a warning code will appear. Refer to troubleshooting
section for more details.
WARNING: NEVER USE A GRATE OR OTHER MEANS OF SUPPORTING THE FUEL.
ONLY USE THE APPROVED STOVE BURN POT.
6.2 Everyday Startup
Before starting the stove, make sure there is enough pellets in the hopper and that the
recommended maintenance schedule has been followed (see Section 7.1.1:
Recommended maintenance schedule). Press the icon for either MANUEL or
THERMOSTAT.
6.3 Running Out of Pellets
If your stove runs out of pellets, the fire will slowly go out; the convection fan will run until the
heat sensor on the exhaust fan reads 115°F. The cooling cycle will take a few minutes before
all other motors stops. When this temperature is reached, a warning message will appear
on the screen.
To restart the stove, wait until all components stop running (usually 10 minutes after the
warning message has been displayed). Press the button, refill the hopper, and press
the auger icon .
6.4 Refueling
While the stove is running, you have up to 3 minutes to refill the hopper with pellets. Note that
opening the hopper lid will stop the auger from feeding pellets to the stove. If the hopper lid is
left open more than 3 minutes, the stove will stop and a warning code will appear on the
control panel. To restart the stove, close the lid, press the button, and then press the
to select either MANUAL or THERMOSTAT.
NOTE: Keep hopper lid closed at all times except when refueling. Do not overfill the
hopper.
