For optimal heat output and longevity of the convection blower you should allow the convection fan to be controlled by the control panel most of the time In most cases you will only want to increase the convection fan speed when you lower the heat level setting by more than two levels In such a case return it to the normal speed for the heat level you are operating the stove on after about 15 minutes NOTE Running the convection fan on the high setting for long periods of time will degrade the lifespan of your convection blower SHUT DOWN PROCEDURES The shut down procedures for the SP 6000 Multi fuel stove are simple and straight forward Simply press the On Off button one time and your unit will go into a pre programmed shut down mode Although not required you may wish to open the damper completely Your blowers will continue to run for as much as a half an hour or more until the stove cools to below approximately 90 degrees F Allow the stove to complete its shut down procedure completely and do not unplug the stove until completed 10 OPERATION CAUTION AVOID OVERFIRING YOUR STOVE If at any time you observe a portion of the stove glowing red other than the stir rod in the burn pot you are overfiring the unit or some other malfunction has occurred Immediately initiate shut down procedures by pressing the On Off button one time Allow the unit to go through the pre programmed shut down cycle and contact your dealer Observe the
