OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
SHUTDOWN PROCEDURE
WARNING:
NEVER SHUT DOWN THIS UNIT BY UNPLUGGING IT
FROM THE POWER SOURCE.
Turning your stove off is a matter of pressing the "POWER"
button on the display board. The green light will turn back
to red when the "POWER" button is pushed. The auger
motor will stop, and the blowers will continue to operate
until the internal firebox temperatures have fallen to a
preset level.
1. Your stove is equipped with a high temperature
thermodisc. This unit has a manual reset thermodisc.
This safety switch has two functions.
A. To recognize an overheat situation in the stove and
shut down the fuel feed or auger system.
B. In case of a malfunctioning convection blower, the
high-temperature thermodisc will automatically shut
down the auger, preventing the stove from overheating.
NOTE: On some units, once tripped, like a circuit breaker,
the reset button will have to be pushed before restarting
your stove. On other units the thermodisc has no reset
button and will reset itself once the stove has cooled. The
manufacturer recommends that you call your dealer if this
occurs as this may indicate a more serious problem. A
service call may be required.
2. If the combustion blower fails, an air pressure switch
will automatically shut down the auger.
NOTE: Opening the stove door for more than 30 seconds
during operation will cause enough pressure change to
activate the air switch, shutting the fuel feed off. The stove
will shut down and show "E2" on the two digit display. The
stove has to fully shut down before restarting.
INTERIOR CHAMBERS
• Burn Pot - Periodically remove and clean the burn pot
and the area inside the burn pot housing. In particular,
it is advisable to clean out the holes in the burn pot to
remove any build up that may prevent air from moving
through the burn pot freely.
• Heat Exchanger - There are three panels in the back of
the firebox that need to be removed in order to clean the
fly ash out of the heat exchanger.
a. Open the door and remove the burnpot.
b. Use the tab located at the top of the center panel to lift
the panel up and out of the unit.

d. Remove fly ash.
It is possible that creosote may accumulate in the exhaust
fan therefore, this must be brushed clean. The exhaust fan
can be found behind the left side panel (facing the front
of the heater), the circulation fan can be found behind the
right side panel. To access the igniter, remove the air inlet
tube and cover (2 screws). The auger motor is located in
the center rear of the unit. Note: When cleaning, take care
not to damage the fan blades.
If a vacuum is used to clean your stove, we suggest
using the AV15E AshVac vacuum. The AV15E AshVac is
designed for ash removal. Some regular vacuum cleaner
(i.e. shop vacs) may leak ash into the room.
DO NOT VACUUM HOT ASH.
