Start-Up Sequence, Auger on Light | Avalon Stoves Stove manual

Operation2 5

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.
