Installation
Removing peLLet Stove fRom paLLet:
Figure 4: Removing Stove From the Pallet.
Use a flathead screwdriver or
5
/16” socket to remove the
four (4) screws that secure the Empress FPI to the pallet.
Two (2) of the screws are shown in Figure 4 and the other
two (2) are in the same location but on the opposite side;
behind the circuit board and beside the power cord.
theRmoStat inStaLLation:
1. Install the wall thermostat in a location that is not to close too the unit but will effectively heat the
desired area.
2. Install a 12 or 24 Volt Thermostat using an 18 x 2 gauge wire
from the unit to the thermostat.
If the unit has been placed in the HI / LOW mode, the unit will be
taken to a low or idle setting when the thermostat is not calling
for heat. When the thermostat calls for heat, the unit will go to
the setting that is displayed on the control board Heat Indicator.
If the heating load is not great enough when the stove is on
low, the high limit switch will turn the stove off and the switch
will have to be manually reset. To reset the high limit switch,
remove the right cabinet side. The switch is found behind the
control panel. Avoid setting off the high limit switch.
Remove jumper
wire and install
thermostat wires here.
