E-Codes
“E-Codes,” or Error Codes, are codes that will appear in the Heat Range and Blower Speed
windows of the Control Board if your unit experiences problems. If you receive these codes, wait
until the unit is cooled completely down before trying to restart your unit.
If the unit continues to display any E-Code(s), please contact Technical Support at
(800) 245-6489 before further attempting to restart your unit.
NOTE: “E-0” indicates “No Error”
E-2 = Fail to Start
E-3 = Unit Overfired
If you see the E-3 code displayed on your control board, you have overfired your unit.
You must let the unit cool and clean the Firebox and Burnpot. Be sure to clean the
orifices (holes in the Burnpot). You should not burn your unit on High (Heat Range 9)
continuously when burning corn. After a couple of hours of burning corn on high, turn
the Heat Range to 7 and the Blower Speed to 9. Running the unit on high, when
burning corn for long periods, can damage the unit.
First Fire
: When you push the “ON” button, the Control Board will automatically be set at
both “Heat Range” and “Blower Speed” to setting “5”. Allow the stove to burn in
this manner for at least three (3) hours. This will allow the unit to “cure out” as
the paint and the oils from the manufacturing process burn off. We recommend
you open doors and windows in your dwelling during this process.
NOTE
: Please be patient, your unit has a large Burnpot and it takes a while to equalize
(reach maximum heat levels). Do not be concerned by the size of the flame, as
this unit gets much hotter than the flame appears. Use gloves when filling the
hopper. If you leave the hopper open too long, the stove will shut down.
Subsequent Cold Starts
: In a cold start situation, the unit should be operated at a “5” setting
until the room air blower begins to operate.
NOTE: Press the “ON” button only once on start-up
Except when the hopper is empty (when
you run out of fuel or your first fire), press and hold the “ON” button for 10 seconds to purge
the unit.. Pressing the “ON” button a second time during the start-up cycle will cause
the start-up cycle to begin again.
IMPORTANT: If the unit fails to start properly, or does not properly complete the Shut-Down
procedure, open the closest outside door and a window to eliminate the home’s
natural draft BEFORE opening the stove’s door or hopper lid. This will allow
any smoke to exit through the external air hook-up instead of spilling into the home.
