Safety Notice

Read this entire manual (especially the "Safety Precautions" on pages 2 and 3)
before using this stove. Failure to follow the instructions may result in property
damage, bodily injury, or even death.

!

Do not unplug the stove to turn it off. This stove relies upon electricity to push the flue
gases out the pellet vent – unplugging it may lead to smoke entering your room.

!

Failure to maintain your heater will lead to a restricted combustion air system, leading to
poor performance and in some cases, smoke spillage into the room. See the
"Maintenance" section for details.

Starting the Heater for the First Time

Curing the Paint

This stove uses a heat-activated paint that will
emit some fumes while starting the first fire.
Open doors and windows to the room to vent
these fumes. You may also notice oil burning
off of the interior of the stove. This rust-
stopping agent will soon dissipate.

Priming the Auger

2 to 4 hours

Because of its electronic control panel, this stove does not require priming. If you run out of pellets
you may notice it will take approximately 5 minutes longer for the stove to start.
