HEAT LEVEL LIGHT INDICATORS
TheSP6000Multi‐FuelStovehasfiveheatlevelsettingsthatrangefromLowtoHigh.Thisdisplayservesmultiplepurposesandyou
needtobefamiliarwiththesepurposes.Thesefivesettingsshowyounotonlywhatheatlevelsettingthestoveisoperatingon,but
theywillalsoshow
youerrordiagnosticcodesifyourstoveisnotoperatingproperly.

Duringnormaloperationoneoftheheatlevellightswillbelitup.AsyoupressthisHEATLEVELbuttonyoucanincreaseordecrease
theheatlevelsettingfromLowtoHigh.Whicheverlightislitistheheatlevelsettingyouhavethestovesetto.Keepinmind
that
whenyouchangetheheatlevel(eitherupordown),thereisathreeminutedelaybetweeneachchangetoallowthestovetoadjust
tothenewfuelrate.

Forexample,let’sassumethatyouarerunningthestoveontheLowheatlevel.Youwanttoincreasethestovetothethirdheat
levelsettingtogetmoreheat.PresstheHEATLEVELadvancebuttonandthesecondlightwillcomeon.Pressitagain,andthethird
light
willcomeon.Afterapproximatelythreeminutestheaugerfeedrateandconvectionfanspeedwillincreasetothesecondheat
levelsetting.Thestovewillcontinuetofunctiononthesecondheatlevelsettingforthreeminutes.Afterthreeminutestheauger
feedrateandconvectionfanspeedwill
thenincreasetothethirdheatlevelsetting.

Thehighestheatlevel(#5)shouldonlybeusedforshortperiodsoftimeinordertorapidlybringupthetemperatureofyourhome.
Donotusethissettingformorethan2hoursatatime,andbesureto
allowseveralhoursbetweeneachuse.Prolongeduseofthis
settingcoulddamageyourstove,shortenthelifeofthestovecomponents,andevenvoidyourwarranty.Ifyoufeeltheneedtouse
the#5settingforlongperiodsoftime,youshouldconsiderusingyourhomefurnaceto
supplementyourheat.

DIAGNOSTICS
TheHeatLevellightswillalsogiveyouanerrormessageifthestoveisnotfunctioningproperly,orifthestoveshutsdownduring
normaloperationforsomereason.Thiserrormessagewillbeaflashinglightoneitherthesecond(AS–AirSwitch),third(POF–
Proof
ofFireThermodisc),orfourth(HT–HighTempThermodisc)heatlevel.Itisveryimportanttotakenoticeofwhichlightis
flashingifyouarehavingtroubleoperatingyourstove.Thisisacriticalpieceofinformationtosupplytoyourdealerorthetechnical
supportdepartment.

IftheASLightisflashing,thisisanindicationthattheproblemisrelatedtoairflowintheunit.Mostofthetimethisisrelatedtoa
dirtystoveorexhaustpipe.Cleaningyourstoveand/orexhaustpipewellwillgenerallyresolvethisproblem.Alsokeepinmindthat

ifyouleavetheviewingdooropenformorethan30secondsthestovewillshutdownandtheASLightwillflash.THISDOESNOT
MEANTHATTHEAIRSWITCHISDEFECTIVE.

IfthePOFLightisflashing,thisisanindicationthateitherthePOFthermodischastrippedorisnotfunctioningcorrectly,oryoumay
haveanaugerjam,oryoumayhaveleftthehopperlidopen.THISDOESNOTMEANTHATTHEPOFTHERMODISCISDEFECTIVE.

Ifthe
HTLightisflashing,thisisan indicationthatyourstovehasbecometoohot.Checktomakesurethatthefueltypeissetin
accordancewiththetypeoffuelthatyouareburning.Ifyouareburningamixtureofcornandpellets,youshouldselectCORNas

yourfueltype.THISDOESNOTMEANTHATTHEHIGHTEMPTHERMODISCISDEFECTIVE.
