HOW YOUR STOVE WORKS
Your pellet stove utilizes an inclined auger fuel feed system that is operated by a microprocessor controlled digital circuit
board. The digital circuit board allows the inclined auger fuel feed system to run in a timer-based, non-continuous cycle;
this cycling allows the auger to run for a predetermined period of seconds. The auger pushes pellets up a chute located
at the front/bottom of the hopper which in turn falls through another chute into the burnpot. Your stove is equipped with
an automatic ignition system that should ignite the fuel within 5-10 minutes from pressing the ON button. As pellets enter
the burn pot and ignite, outside air is drawn across the fuel and heated during the combustion process which is then pulled
through the heat exchanger by the exhaust motor or draft fan. As the stove heats up, room air is circulated around the
heat exchanger by means of a room air blower, distributing warm air into the room. The amount of heat produced by the
stove is proportional to the rate of the fuel that is burned, and this rate is controlled by the “HEAT RANGE” setting. In
order to maintain combustion of the fuel at a desired rate, the air provided to the burn chamber by the exhaust or draft
fan must be maintained precisely. Too little air will result in a ame that is non-energetic or lazy. If the fuel continues
to ow with too little air for long enough, the burn pot will ll with too much fuel and the re will smother out. To much
air will result in a ame that is overactive or aggressive. The ame in this situation is typically very blue at the bottom
and resembles a blow torch. If this situation continues, the fuel in the burn pot will be consumed and the re will go out.
Matching the amount of air required for proper combustion to the fuel rate is the primary objective in effectively burning
pellets of various brands and qualities in your stove. The air to fuel ratio can be adjusted to allow almost any fuel quality
to burn effectively by following the procedures detailed in the remainder of this manual. Because a forced draft pressure
is required for the combustion process inside your stove, it is extremely important that the exhaust system be properly
installed and maintained. And, that when operating your stove, you make sure that the viewing door is properly sealed.

Understanding your stove
PANEL/REMOTE CONTROLS
The remote control is an optional kit sold separately contact USSC customer service at (800) 750-2723
for more information. The operation of this appliance can be controlled from the panel located on the side
of the stove and/or by the remote control. The control functions are as follows:
A. ON/OFF SWITCH (“POWER” BUTTON)
• When pushed, the stove will automatically ignite. No other re starter is necessary. The igniter will
stay on for at least 10 and up to 12 minutes, depending on when Proof of Fire is reached. The re
should start in approximately 5 minutes.
• After pushing “POWER”, the auger motor is on for 3.5 minutes, off for 1 minute. During the remainder
of the start-up period, the auger motor operates on the heat range “1” setting.
• During start up the heat level advance (Up and Down keys) will change the heat range indicator level
accordingly, but there is no change in the stoves operating conditions until start-up is completed.
• During start-up ignition must occur within 12 minutes or the stove will error out and show E3.
• During the start-up phase, the Mode key does not function.
B. HEAT RANGE ARROW BUTTONS
• These buttons when pushed will set the pellet feed rate, hence the heat output or heat range of your stove. When
using the hand-held remote this function can be performed with the “Up/Down” buttons.
• The levels of heat output will incrementally change on the bar graph starting from heat range “1” to heat range “5”.
