FAN OPERATION INTO AUTO MODE

If fan will not come on in auto mode see the following possible causes and
solutions:
Possible causes:
- Bypass damper is open
- Brand new unit or first burn of the season
- No ember bed established (embers or coals, not to be mistaken with ashes)
- Primary damper is set to low (all the way to the right)
- There are only a couple small logs on fire or fire is almost out
- Mechanical issues or defects
Solutions:
- Close bypass once unit is at optimum temperature
- Establish a couple inch ember bed
- Set damper between medium to high (middle or all the way to the left)
- Add a few more logs onto the fire
- See your authorized dealer
NOTE: The temperature displayed on the catalyst monitor has nothing to
do with the activation temperature in auto for the fan.
The automatic sensor for this appliance is located at the firebox
base. If the temperature at this location is not met, the fan will not
come on. It is crucial on this appliance to get this up to operating
temperature so that the catalyst is activated and bypass may be
closed to retain heat within the firebox.
