3.If you decide to purchase your own 12V back up system we rec om m end a sealed gel cell batte ry. Failure to install the proper battery could cause physical harm to you and your property and will also void the heater warranty.
4.W hen the battery is properly connected and the heater plugged in, the fo llowing will happen autom atically:
a.The heater will autom atically switc h to 12V power if there is a power failure, and switch back when power is restored.
b. The battery will be trickle charged as long as the heater is plugged into 110 AC wall outlet. Do not use extension cords. The trickle charge will not recharge a low or dead battery but it will keep a charged battery at maximum performance.
5.If you choose to separate the battery from the heater by lengthening the cables you must m ake sure that the cable wire used will carry the current to the heater. For example, if the distance is 10 to 20 feet then 12 gauge wire must be used. Check with your local electrical professional to mak e sure you have used the proper gauge wire/cable.

4.Clearance to combustibles may only be reduced by m eans approved by the re gulatory au thority.
5.Store pellet fuels in a dry area away from unit. Do not store fuels within the space heater installation clearances or within the space required for charging and ash
rem oval.
6.Adequate ventilation air is required to operate this heater. During operation the heater draws air for combustion which can be assisted by the installation of outside combustion air inlets. However, certain weather conditions such as icing or use of kitchen exhaust fans m ay im pact and red uce the effectiveness of vents . It is im portant to note that room air starvation well negatively impact the operation of the heater.

AUTOLITE OPERATION
Your EASYF IRE Pellet Stove is equipped with the Autolite Automatic ignition and operating system.
The AutoLite system is integrated into the stove to allow for automatic start up using a heating element located in the burn pot. This elem ent starts the initial fire required to burn the wood pellets. The system operates on 120VAC power supplied through a separate fuse and runs for five minutes during the initial stove start up. After the five minute period the AutoLite system is deactivated and the stove operates based on the EasyFire digital control system requirements. If the house AC power should quit, the AutoLite system will not be available however, with the optional battery attached the stove can be manually lit and operate on battery power for several days (depending on battery size, refer to the EasyFire installation manual).
The m ost effective installation of the EasyFire AutoLite Stove is to connect the unit to a thermostat. This can be acc om plished using a standard w all therm ostat or a rem ote control thermostat. A remote control thermostat can be purchased from your local dealer and installed in a few minutes. This will allow the stove to start and shut down whe n there is a call for heat.
If your house power is out the AutoLite system will not be able to start the stove when the therm ostat calls for heat. However if the stove is operating when the power goes out the stove will not shut down operating on the backup battery. Your EasyFire will turn down to low when the thermostat calls for shut down and then turn up to the setting on the control panel when the thermostat calls for heat. A true back up heat source!
