Fill the burn pot with 2 or 3 handful of pellets.
Then It depends on what you have on hand for lighting.
do you have any hand sanitizer? or alcohol or gel fire starter
or a simple torch?
if you have a torch..light it and press the head into the pellets a little bit and hold steady in the same spot for about 30 seconds.
Pull away the torch and you should see a glower ball of embers.Close the door..turn on the stove and away you go.
if you have some alcohol or sanitizer you can then pour some on top of the pile of pellets and lite then close door and turn on stove.

There are many ways. On my old stove I would turn on the stove, put a small handful of pellets in the burn pot, use propane torch on pellets in burn pot of about 20-30 seconds(till pellets are glowing red), then add second small handful on top of them heat for another 15-20 seconds(till pellets are glowing red). Shut door stove should have flames in less than one min. when using this leave stove on manual an run on low-medium to keep stove running.
Or could go get some starting gel.
Do a search, was lot of talk about this earlier this year.
Good luck.

With the coming cold spell coming down you wont probably need to worry about shutting the stove down for a week. Just remember to keep the hopper full
