when “ON” button is pushed.

Check the pellet quality. Replace if moist, wet, or dirty.

 

Loss of draft pressure. Check that the main door, ash pan slides, and hopper lid

 

 

are all sealed tightly. Check that the outside air connection is clean and clear of

 

 

any obstructions. Check the exhaust system, clean as needed. The safety pres-

 

 

sure switch will not supply power to the auto-start igniter if there isn’t suffi-

 

 

cient draft pressure inside the stove.

 

Check that the auto-start igniter is not blocked with ash or soot (the igniter is

 

 

located behind the 3/8” diameter hole located on the back wall of the burn pot).

 

 

NOTE: The gasket between the burn pot and rear firewall is critical for the flow

 

 

of hot air from the auto-start igniter into the burn pot. If you have previously

 

 

removed the burn pot, this gasket must be replaced.

 

The Auto-Start Igniter gets “red hot” during start-up. If you can not visibly see

 

 

the igniter glowing during start-up, then the auto-start igniter may need to be

 

 

replaced or there is a problem with the electrical control system.
