B. General Operating Information
See Wall Control Thermostat Manual
for detailed operating instructions.
1. Wall Control Thermostat - Automatic Setting
The appliance is like most modern furnaces; when the
wall control thermostat calls for heat, your appliance will
automatically light and deliver heat. When the room is up to
temperature and the wall control is satisfied the appliance
will shut down.
In the automatic setting the heat output level is controlled
by the wall control. Select "Automatic" on the AUTO/
MANUAL screen. Figure 23.1.

2. Wall Control Thermostat - Manual Setting
When you select "Manual" on the AUTO/MANUAL screen
the appliance will still automatically turn on and off
according to the temperature setting. However, you will
be able to manually control the heat output levels. Adjust
the heat output levels by using the HEAT OUTPUT LEVEL
screen.
Figure 23.2
3. Auto-Clean Firepot System
Your appliance is equipped with an automatic firepot
cleaning system that will change the frequency of cleaning
based on the fuel being burned.
The auto-clean system will clean itself immediately on initial
plug in. If there is a power outage, as soon as power is
restored it will automatically clean itself.

C. Before Your First Fire
1. First, make sure your appliance has been properly
installed and that all safety requirements have been met.
Pay particular attention to the fire protection, venting and
wall control thermostat installation instructions.
2. Double check that the ash pan and firebox are empty
and then close the front door.
Tip of thermocouple must be in contact with the inside
end of the thermocouple cover.
Missed ignitions can occur.
D. Starting Your First Fire
1. Fuel Selection
To start your first fire, you must select the appropriate fuel on
the FUEL SELECTION screen on the thermostat wall control
to match the fuel you have chosen to burn.
If the proper fuel is not selected your appliance will not operate
properly. For example, if you have selected wood pellets and
you are burning corn, the appliance may not light, may go
out or overfeed. Figure 23.3.
2. Comfort Level Selection
Once your fuel is selected, select the temperature at the
desired setting on the SET COMFORT LEVEL screen.
Figure 23.4.
3. Automatic or Manual Setting
The automatic setting will control the heat output based on
the comfort level selection. The manual setting allows you
to manually control the heat output settings. See page 24,
Ignition Cycles.
NOTE: See the Wall Control Thermostat manual for
detailed instructions.
