an extreme heat condition occurs at the receiver, (especially the battery-operated receiver), the fireplace may not be able to
process the transmitter’s thermal signal and the fireplace may not shut down causing a high heat condition in the home.
When the ambient temperature at the THERMISTOR, inside the receiver case, reaches 130
0
F, the THERMISTOR will
automatically shut the fireplace system down and the RECEIVER will begin emitting a series of 2 “beeps”, every 4 seconds.
When the ambient temperature, at the RECEIVER, drops between 120
0
F and 130
0
F, the user can reactivate the fireplace by
pushing the MODE
button on the transmitter. The word ON must display on the LCD screen. When the MODE button is
pressed to ON, the THERMISTOR “resets” itself and the fireplace will begin operating again. However, the “beeping” will
continue, if the ambient temperature remains between 120
0
F and 130
0
F. This “beeping” alerts the user that the RECEIVER
should be repositioned so the ambient temperature drops below 120
0
F.
When the temperature drops below 120
0
F, the “beeping” will cease, providing the user has “reset” the THERMISTOR by
pushing the MODE button to ON to operate the fireplace, either manually or thermally. Allow sufficient time for the receiver to
cool below 120
0
F, and then press MODE button to stop beeping.
SYSTEM CHECK
MILLIVOLT VALVES
Light your gas appliance following the lighting instructions that came with the appliance. Confirm that the pilot flame is on; it must be in
operation for the main gas valve to operate.
1. Slide the 3-position button on the remote receiver to the ON position. The main gas flame (i.e., the fire) should ignite. Slide the
button to OFF the flame should extinguish (the pilot flame will remain on).
2. Slide the button to REMOTE (the center position), then press the button on the transmitter to change the system to ON. The main
gas flame should ignite.
3. Press the MODE
button on the transmitter to change the system to OFF. The flame should extinguish (the pilot flame will remain
on).
4. Press the MODE
button on the transmitter to change the system to THERMO. Advance the SET temperature on the transmitter to
a
temperature of a least 2
0
F (1
0
C) above the ROOM temperature displayed on the LCD screen with this manual setting, the normal
thermostatic cycle is overridden and the system flame will ignite. Set the SET temperature to at least 2
0
F (1
0
C) below the room
temperature and the system flame will extinguish in a few seconds. Thereafter, it should continue to cycle to on and off
thermostatically approximately every two minutes as the ROOM temperature changes, but only when the temperature differential
between ROOM and SET temperatures differ at least 2
0
F (1
0
C). The 2
0
F differential is the factory setting.
ELECTRONIC SPARK IGNITION SYSTEMS
1. Slide the 3-position button on the remote receiver to the ON position. The spark electrode should begin sparking to ignite the pilot
(the pilot may ignite after only one spark). After the pilot flame is lit, the main gas valve should open and the main gas flame
should ignite.
2. Slide the button to OFF. The main gas flame and pilot flame should BOTH extinguish.
3. Slide the button to REMOTE (the center position), then press the MODE button on the transmitter to change the system to ON.
4. The spark electrode should begin sparking to ignite the pilot. After the pilot is lit, the main gas valve should open and the main gas
flame should ignite.
5. Press the MODE
button on the transmitter to OFF. The main gas flame and pilot flame should BOTH extinguish.
6. Press the MODE
button on the transmitter to change the system to THERMO. Advance the SET temperature on the transmitter to
a temperature of at least 2
0
F (1
0
C) above the ROOM temperature displayed on the LCD screen. With this manual setting the
normal thermostatic cycle is overridden and the system flame will ignite. Set the SET temperature to at least 2
0
F (1
0
C) below the
room temperature and the system flame will extinguish in a few seconds. Thereafter, it should continue to cycle to on and off
thermostatically approximately every two minutes as the ROOM temperature changes, but only when the temperature differential
between ROOM and SET temperatures differ at least 2
0
F (
0
C). (The 2
0
F differential is the factory setting).
