c.CONVECTION BLOWER SPEED CONTROL

The convection blower speed varies directly with the fuel feed rate. Reducing the blower speed will also reduce the noise.

When the “CONVECTION BLOWER SPEED CONTROL” button is pushed, the convection blower will switch to its lowest speed. The convection blower will remain at its lowest speed unless the stove reaches a certain temperature. If this occurs, the convection blower will go back to its highest setting to cool down the stove. The “CONVECTION BLOWER SPEED CONTROL” will have to be pushed again for the convection blower to go back to its lowest speed.

d.HEAT LEVEL

By pressing “+” or “-”, you can set the pellet feed rate and hence the heat output of your stove. The levels of heat output will incrementally change and each LED indicates the level from 1 to 6.

e.RESET

Reset button has to be used to clear most warnings on the control and restart your stove.

2.7.OPENING DOOR

The door should be open only for maintenance purposes.

2.8.CONVECTION BLOWER (ROOM AIR FAN)

Upon starting your stove, the convection blower will not come on until the stove‟s heat exchanger warms up. This usually takes about 10 to 15 minutes from start-up. Speed will vary with the selected feed rate, except if the “CONVECTION BLOWER SPEED CONTROL” mode has been activated.

2.9.IF THE STOVE RUNS OUT OF PELLETS

If the stove runs out of pellets, the fire goes out and the auger motors and blowers will run until the stove cools down. This will take a few minutes.

After the stove‟s components stop running, a warning message will appear.

To restart, press the “RESET” button, refill the hopper, and press the “FUEL FEED” button until pellets begin to fall into the burn pot. Press the “MODE” button to start the unit on Manual or Thermostatic mode.
