Start-Up Sequence
This stove utilizes a start-up sequence whenever the mode switch is changed or the heater is started
when cold. This is to ensure proper operation through all possible settings and operational states (hot
or cold, pellets burning or not burning, etc.). This sequence over-rides all user settings (except the
"OFF" position) to set the auger feed rate to medium, the exhaust blower to high, and the igniter on.
During this period the lowest “HEAT OUTPUT” light will flash.
"AUGER ON" Light
This light comes on when the auger is turning. This allows the operator to determine when the auger
is turning.
"MAINTENANCE REQUIRED" Light
N O T E : If the “MAINTENACE REQUIRED” light
comes on, check the items below before calling
for service .
The “MAINTENACE REQUIRED” light is used to
indicate maintenance is required on the heater. It
will turn on due to various operating circumstances.
When it turns on, a second light will turn on near
“HEAT OUTPUT” (see the illustration to the right).
Determine the maintenance code (2, 4, or 6), then
use the chart below to diagnose and remedy the
situation. HIGH
