System Status
Every time the thermostat calls for heat, the appliance steps
through fi ve cycles:
1 Start-Up Cycle 4 Shutdown Cycle
2 Soft-Start Cycle 5 Auto-Clean Cycle
3 Heating Cycle
The duration and characteristics of these cycles may be dif-
ferent with each type of fuel selected.
Figure 10.1
1. Start-Up Cycle
During this cycle:
• Igniter turns on for 90 seconds to heat up the air in the
fi repot
• Combustion blower starts
• Vacuum switch comes on
• Feed motor turns on adding fuel to the fi repot and the
appliance waits for the fi re to start
The duration of start-up depends on the type and quality of
fuel used. It is normal to see some smoke during the igni-
tion process as moisture evaporates and the fuel lights. The
smoke will stop once the fi re starts.
2. Soft Start Cycle (SS-Low / SS-Med)
Once the fi re is lit:
• The appliance moves into the low soft-start cycle as it
continues to build the fi re
• More fuel will be added
• As the fi re builds, the appliance will change to medium
soft-start mode
• The heating cycle begins
3. Heating Cycle ( Auto / Man - L, ML, M, MH, H)
There are two choices in the Automatic / Manual menu of
how your appliance will operate:
Automatic Mode
• The wall control will turn the heat output level up or down
depending on how far the room temperature is from the
desired temperature
• The digital display will read AUTO:M, i.e. automatic-medi-
um level
• As the room temperature approaches the desired tem-
perature, the appliance will turn down to lower settings
• When the home reaches your set temperature, the appli-
ance will go into the shutdown cycle
