IMPORTANT: Failure to read and follow these instruc-

tions may create a possible hazard and will void the ﬁ re-

place warranty.

These instructions must remain with the equipment.

CAUTION! Risk of Cuts or Abrasions. Wear protective

gloves and safety glasses during installation. Sheet metal

edges are sharp.

Note: The battery back-up feature of the IPI system is removed

when the PVI-SLP power vent is installed. The ﬁ replace may

no longer be operated with battery back-up.

The PVI-SLP operates on 120VAC, 60Hz electrical service

which is supplied at the ﬁ replace junction box.

IMPORTANT OPERATIONAL NOTE: When the control

being used to run the ﬁ replace is activated, a 120 second

delay will occur before ignition occurs. This is to allow a

pre-purge by the PVI-SLP. If ﬁ replace does not light after

135 seconds, refer to the Troubleshooting section of this

instruction for further direction. If an RC100, RC200 or

RC300 remote is being used, there will also be a 20 minute

post-purge in which the PVI-SLP will continue to run after

appliance is turned off.

Installation of the PVI-SLP may be done by a qualiﬁ ed

service technician only. Installation MUST comply with lo-

cal, regional, state and national codes and regulations.

2 Vent Information and Diagrams A. Installation of Vent Pipe B. Vent/Pipe Regulations For information on standard procedures for venting the appliance, refer to the "Vent Information and Diagrams" section of the appliance installation manual. WARNING! Risk of Fire! Maintain minimum pipe length between appliance and PVI-SLP on all models. Combustible materials surrounding pipe may overheat. 1. A minimum length of venting is required between the appliance and the PVI-SLP.
PAGE 4
B. Vent/Pipe Regulations (continued) WARNING! Risk of Fire! • PVI-SLP cannot be installed directly on appliance. The PVI-SLP and combustible materials surrounding vent pipe may overheat. • A minimum length run of initial vent pipe is required between the appliance and the inlet of the PVI-SLP. The initial minimum vent run requirement varies depending on the specific appliance and its venting configuration. • Some models require DVP Series pipe for the initial minimum vent section directly off the appliance.

F. PVI-SLP Troubleshooting Symptoms Possible Causes Corrective Action IntelliFire™ Plus System Main Closes/ Pilot open, 5 seconds later pilot sparking with Blower ON. If condition persists for 60 seconds, 8K-1 locks out with 3 LED alarm. Pilot Rectification Failure 1. Verify that black wire on IPI wire harness is properly grounded to the fireplace chassis. 2. Verify that pilot is not being compromised by draft such that it fails to rectify.
