OPTIONAL THERMOSTAT

An optional thermostat may help you maintain a constant house tempera-
ture automatically. A millivolt thermostat is required. A fi xed wall mount or
Breckwell's hand held model can be used. The control panel can be set up
two ways to operate your stove in thermostat mode.
THERMOSTAT INSTALLATION
A MILLIVOLT THERMOSTAT IS REQUIRED.
Unplug stove from power outlet.
Remove control board from stove.
The two thermostat wires connect to the terminal block on the lower
left side of the back of the control board. (See Figure 14)
Insert wires in the terminal side and tighten the two screws.
MODES
TO SWITCH BETWEEN ANY OF THE THREE MODES, THE STOVE
MUST BE SHUT OFF, THE NEW MODE SELECTED AND THE STOVE
RESTARTED.
MANUAL MODE
USE THIS MODE EXCLUSIVELY IF YOU DO NOT CONNECT AN
OPTIONAL THERMOSTAT.
In this mode, the stove will operate only from the control panel as
detailed in the "OPERATION" section of this owner's manual.
HIGH/LOW THERMOSTAT MODE
USE THIS MODE ONLY IF YOU CONNECT A THERMOSTAT.
When engaged in this mode, the stove will automatically switch be-
tween two settings. When warm enough, it will switch to the #1 or low
setting. The room air blower will also slow to its lowest speed.
The Heat Level Advance setting on the bar graph will stay where it
was initially set. When the home cools below the thermostat setting,
the stove will switch to the feed rate of the heat level advance setting.
ON/OFF THERMOSTAT MODE
USE THIS MODE ONLY OF YOU CONNECT A THERMOSTAT
In this mode, when the home is warm enough, the stove will shut off.
The fans will continue to run until the stove cools.
When the home cools below the thermostat setting, the stove will
automatically restart and run at the last feed rate setting.
NOTE: When in "High/Low" or "On/Off" thermostat mode -
Do not operate the stove higher than the #3 setting.
Set damper control rod approximately 1/4" to 1/2" out. This will vary
depending on elevation and weather conditions. Observe stoves op-
eration and adjust damper as necessary.
