Starting A Fire In "Automatic" Mode; Maintaining A Fire; Shut-Down Procedure - Harman P35i Owner's Manual Installation And Operation

F. Starting a Fire - "AUTOMATIC"
1. With the mode selector in the "Off" position, and the
Feed Limit NOT on "Test", plug the power cord into a
properly grounded receptacle.
2. Fill the hopper with DRY fuel.
3. Turn the Feed Limit dial to "Test". This will run the feed
motor for one minute. If you begin to see fuel entering
the burn pot, you can stop the test cycle. Return to #4
or #5 to start out.
4. Position the Igniter switch to Igniter Auto.
5. Turn the mode selector dial to the desired mode. This
will start the combustion blower, feeder, and igniter
operating. If Room Temp is selected, be sure to
turn the temperature dial above the current room
temperature.
6. After the initial feed cycle is typically when you'll begin
to see sparks, smoke, or flames.
Keep Hopper Lid, Ash Pan, and Fire viewing doors
closed while in operation. Maintain all door seals and
gaskets in good condition. Replace gaskets when
necessary using parts obtained through your Harman
dealer.
G. Maintaining the Fire
Once the Distribution Blower begins operation, your
fire is well established. Now, you can make any desired
adjustments to the temperature dial. Remember, in
Constant Burn, the temperature dial uses the inner portion
of the scale (#1 thru 7). In Room Temp, select the desired
temperature in Fahrenheit from 50° to 90°.
The flames should appear brisk and bright. If you see deep
orange and lazy flames, it is usually an indication that the
burn pot needs to be cleaned. Refer to the Maintenance
Section of this manual.

H. Shut-Down
During operation in Room Temp / Igniter Auto mode, the
appliance will shut down naturally when demand is met or
exceeded. In other modes of operation, the unit will shut-
down only if or when it runs out of fuel.
To kill or stop a fire, turn the mode selector dial to "OFF".
The shut down cycle will slow or stop the feeder to gradually
cool the fire and ensure that all of the exhaust gases are
safely expelled before stopping the combustion blower. This
not only ensures removal of all smoke and gases, it also
keeps the fire from attempting to travel into the fuel storage
hopper. For this reason; Hearth & Home Technologies
recommends installing a battery back-up in areas where
frequent power outages are experienced.
NEVER ATTEMPT TO EXTINGUISH A FIRE BY PULLING
THE PLUG OR OTHERWISE DISCONNECTING THE
ELECTRICITY SUPPLY.
The best way to extinguish a fire, especially at the end of
the heating season, is to simply allow it to run out of fuel.
