G. Ignition Cycles
1.During each ignition cycle, it is normal to see some smoke in the firebox. The smoke will stop once the fire starts.
2.The convection blower will automatically turn on after your appliance has reached the set temperature. This blower transfers heat from your appliance into the room, and will continue to run after the thermostat has stopped calling for heat until the appliance has cooled down.
3.Occasionally the appliance may run out of fuel and shut itself down. When this happens, the red call light will be on. To restart it, fill the hopper and press the reset button. When you press the reset button the red call light will go out. Release the button and the light will come back on. You should see a fire shortly. If not, follow the instructions “Starting Your First Fire”.on this page.
