SMOKE SMELL OR SOOT BUILD-UP

Because it is a wood-burning device, this stove may emit a faint wood-burning odor. If this increases beyond normal
or is you notice an unusual soot buildup on walls or furniture, check your exhaust system carefully for leaks. All joints
should be properly sealed. Also, clean your stove following instructions in "MAINTENANCE." If problem persists,
contact your dealer.
Possible Remedies:
Clean any dust off the windings and fan blades. If oiling the blower does
not help, the blower may be bad
The highest level setting is designated for use over short periods of time.
Burning the stove on the highest setting for longer that 1-2 hours could
lead to potential overheating situations.
US Stove pellet stoves are designed and tested to use wood pellets.
Check for signs of fuel other than wood pellets. No other type of fuel
have been approved for US Stove pellet stoves. If there are signs of other
types of fuel being used, stop using them immediately.
A power surge, spike, or voltage drop could cause the high limit switch to
trip. Check to see if a surge protector is being used on the stove. If not,
recommend one to the consumer.
If the other items checked out okay, replace the high limit switch.
