OWNER´S MANUAL

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

• Do not operate your stove if you smell smoke coming from it. Turn it off, monitor it,
and call your dealer.
• Never use gasoline, gasoline-type lantern fuel, kerosene, charcoal lighter fluid, or similar liquids
to start or "freshen up" a fire in this stove. Keep all such liquids well away from the stove while
in use.
• Never block free airflow through the open vents of the stove.
• Never try to repair or replace any part of the stove unless instructions are given in this Manual.
All other work should be done by a trained technician.
• The stove will not operate during a power outage. If an outage does occur, check the stove
for smoke spillage and open a window if any smoke spills into the room.
• Disconnect the power cord before performing any maintenance or repairs on the stove.
NOTE: Turning the stove "Off" does not disconnect all power from the stove.
• Do not unplug the stove in you suspect a malfunction. Turn the stove off, periodically inspect
it, and call your dealer.
• Keep foreign objects out of the hopper.
• Do not throw this Manual away. This Manual has important operating and maintenance
instructions that you will need at a later time. Always follow the instructions in this Manual.
• Do not place clothing or other flammable items on or near the stove.
• The viewing door must be closed and latched during operation.
• Do not operate the stove if the flame becomes dark and sooty or if the burnpot overfills with
pellets. Turn the stove off, periodically inspect it, and call your dealer.
• Hot while in operation. Keep children, clothing, and furniture away. Contact may cause skin
burns. Educate all children of the danger of a high temperature stove. Young children should
be supervised when they are in the same room as the stove.
• If the stove is installed in a room without air conditioning, or in an area where direct sunlight
can shine on the unit, it is possible this can cause the temperature of the stove to rise to
operational levels; one of the sensors could then make the stove start on its own. It is
recommended that the stove be unplugged when not in use for extended amounts of time
(i.e. during the summer months).
