enough fuel (pellets) in the burn pot to initiate
a fire.

To prime the auger with pellets follow the
steps listed below (read through entire list of
steps below before beginning the auger
priming process).
1. Load the hopper with pellets.
2. With the stove turned off, open the
burn chamber door and remove the
artificial log (Remove log from front of
burn box by grasping log on the sides
and lifting straight up).
3. Close the burn chamber door, turn the
stove on and raise the set point
temperature at least 3 degrees above
the current room temperature to initiate
a start-up sequence.
4. Wait 2 and ½ minutes. Turn power to
the stove off, wait 30 seconds, turn
power to the stove back on, this will
initiate a second start up sequence
and again begin turning the auger.
5. Looking through the burn chamber
door window, watch for pellets to drop
into the burn pot.
6. When you see the first pellets drop into
the burn pot, turn the power switch to
the off position to terminate the start-up
sequence.
7. Leave the stove powered off while you
open the burn chamber door and place
the artificial log back into the log
retention slots at the front of the burn
box.
8. Close the burn chamber door.
9. Stove is now ready for operation.
Note: If the stove has recently been
burning and the hopper and auger have
been burned empty of pellets, the stove
must be given time to completely cool
before priming the auger.
Start-Up Process
When the stove electronics detects that heat
is required to warm the home, an
uninterruptible start-up sequence is initiated.
Depending on whether the stove is hot or cold
(a recent fire has been in the stove or not),
the stove goes through one of two different
sets of sequences of turning on the
combustion blower to a set speed, feeding
pellets to the burn pot, heating of the igniter
and activation of the circulation blower.
The control software chooses between two
different start-up sequences depending on
whether your stove is cold (has not been
running) or hot (recently shut down and has
been called upon to provide heat). The
software determines if the stove has recently
been burning by checking a temperature-
sensing switch located on the exhaust
system.
If the stove is cold, the software will put the
stove through a “cold start” sequence. Stove
operation cannot be interrupted during this
start-up process. It will be evident that the
stove is going through a start-up routine
because the display will alternately show the
current room temperature, then will display Su
(Start-up). This “cold start” sequence takes
15 minutes and 30 seconds. Once the stove
has completed the start-up sequence, it will
transfer control of the stove operation to
either Automatic Temperature Control Mode
or User Control Mode (manual control)
depending upon the mode the stove was in
prior to the initiation of the start-up sequence.
If power to the stove has just been turned on
and a start-up sequence has been initiated, at
the end of the start-up, control of the stove
transfers to Automatic Temperature Control
Mode (this is the default mode).
If the stove is hot (has recently been burning)
and is again called upon to provide heat, the
software will put the stove through a “hot
start” sequence. Again, stove operation
cannot be interrupted during this start-up
process. It will be evident that the stove is
going through a start-up routine because the
display will alternately show the current room
temperature, then will display Su (Start-up).
