3. To adjust door, close and turn handle so latch contacts
striker. Door gasket must contact firmly against front face
of unit. This can be checked by closing against a piece of
paper. Firmly tug on paper, if it moves with solid
resistance the door is properly adjusted.
ELECTRIC CONNECTIONS
Route the power supply cord from lower right side of unit
to a grounded three prong 120VAC receptacle. Care should
be taken to make sure the fireplace and hearth does not
pinch or otherwise damage the cord.
OPTIONAL 12V HOOK-UP & OPERATION
1.
The EASYFIRE 12V back up can be purchased as an
option and includes the following components:
a.
Deep cycle sealed 12V battery.
b.
Battery connector cables for hook-up to the heater.
2.
In order to hook-up the battery and engage the 12V
backup system simply connect red cable to red terminal
on the heater
(see Figure 6)
and to positive connector on
battery [the terminal marked (+)] and connect the black
cable to the black terminal on the heater and to the
negative connector on the battery (the terminal marked
(-). If you hook up the cables backwards the red LED
light above the terminal receptacles will come on. If
hooked up properly this LED will glow green.
WARNING - MAKE SURE RED CABLE GOES TO RED
TERMINAL (POSITIVE CONNECTOR) AND BLACK
CABLE GOES TO BLACK TERMINAL (NEGATIVE
CONNECTOR).
3.
If you decide to purchase your own 12V back up system
we recommend a sealed gel cell battery. Failure to install
the proper battery could cause physical harm to you and
your property and will also void the heater warranty.
4.
When the battery is properly connected and the heater
plugged in, the following will happen automatically:
a.
The heater will automatically switch to 12V power if
there is a power failure, and switch back when power
is restored.
b.
The battery will be trickle charged as long as the
heater is plugged into 110 AC wall outlet. Do not use
extension cords. The trickle charge will not recharge
a low or dead battery but it will keep a charged
battery at maximum performance.
5.
If you choose to separate the battery from the heater by
lengthening the cables you must make sure that the
cable wire used will carry the current to the heater. For
example, if the distance is 10 to 20 feet then 12 gauge
wire must be used. Check with your local electrical
professional to make sure you have used the proper
gauge wire/cable.
a.
Unplug heater from wall outlet and 12VDC power!
b.
Mount millivolt style remote receiver box to rear of
stove using double-sided tape.
b.
Remove factory jump wire and hook up thermostat
wires to terminals (
Figure 7
).
d.
Reconnect AC power and follow instructions with
remote thermostat regarding set up.
CANADIAN REQUIREMENTS
If this unit is being installed in Canada, the following
additional requirements must be meant:
1. A chimney connector shall no pass through and attic or
roof space, closet or similar concealed space, or a floor,
or ceiling.
2. Where a chimney passage through a wall, or partition of
combustible construction is desired, the installation shall
conform the CAN/CSA-B365.
3. Maintain an effective vapour barrier at the location where
the chimney or other component penetrates to the
exterior of the structure by sealing with high temperature
silicone.
4. Clearance to combustibles may only be reduced by
means approved by the regulatory authority.
5. Store pellet fuels in a dry area away from unit. Do not
store fuels within the space heater installation clearances
or within the space required for charging and ash
removal.
COMBUSTION AIR REQUIREMENTS
1. Adequate ventilation air is required to operate this heater.
During operation the heater draws air for combustion
which can be assisted by the installation of outside
combustion air inlets. However, certain weather
conditions such as icing or use of kitchen exhaust fans
may impact and reduce the effectiveness of vents. It is
important to note that room air starvation well negatively
impact the operation of the heater.
2. If power outages with battery backup or room air
starvation occurs during operation of heater, smoke in
the house may result. This may trigger smoke detectors
if they are installed.
AUTOLITE OPERATION
Your EASYFIRE Pellet Stove is equipped with the Autolite
Automatic ignition and operating system.
The AutoLite system is integrated into the stove to allow for
automatic start up using a heating element located in the
burn pot. This element starts the initial fire required to burn
the wood pellets. The system operates on 120VAC power
supplied through a separate fuse and runs for five minutes
during the initial stove start up. After the five minute period
the AutoLite system is deactivated and the stove operates
