TO LIGHT THE FIREPLACE WITH THE WALL
SWITCH
Move the ON-REMOTE-OFF wall switch to the
ON
position
(
Figure 41
). This transmits a rapid series of sparks at the pilot
head and will ignite the gas.
TO SHUT DOWN THE GAS FIREPLACE USING THE WALL
SWITCH
Move the switch to the OFF position (
Figure 41
). The gas flow
will cease, and all flames (main burner and pilot) will go out (see
important note below).
OPERATING THE BURNER USING THE REMOTE
Move the wall switch to the REMOTE position and follow the
instructions included in the remote kit for lighting and shutting
down the attached burner.
IMPORTANT
: Do not allow the fireplace opening to be
blocked in any way while operating the fireplace. The
fireplace may be operated with a Burntech® screen installed
and drawn.

MAINTAINING THE PILOT
Your gas fireplace is equipped with a safety pilot that will shut
off the gas supply in case the pilot is not burning or functioning
properly. Regularly verify that the pilot is adjusted properly with
the pilot flame hitting the electrodes as shown in
Figure 42.
If the
pilot will not stay lit, call your local gas utility or gas supplier.
TO CHECK UPSTREAM GAS PRESSURE
Unscrew the four (4) screws above and below the control panel
face, then pull the control panel out far enough to expose the
test ports on the valve (
Figure 41
). Unscrew the port marked IN
part way and test.
CAUTION
: Do not kink the flex connectors coming from the
valve while accessing it.

Lighting and Operating Instructions
(Burntech supplied burner only)
FOR YOUR SAFETY, READ BEFORE LIGHTING
WARNING
: If you do not follow these instructions exactly, a fire or explosion may result causing property
damage, personal injury or loss of life.
Do not use this gas fireplace if any part has been underwater. Immediately call for a qualified professional service technician to
inspect the fireplace and to replace any part of the control system and any gas control which has been under water.
The Burntech® burner system has a pilot which can be lit by hand using a match or lighter. When lighting the pilot, follow these
instructions exactly.
BEFORE LIGHTING
, smell all around the burner area for gas. Be sure to smell next to the floor as some gas is heavier than air
and will settle on the floor. IF YOU SMELL GAS, FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS ON THE COVER (P. 1).
Warning: BURNTECH accepts no responsibility
for log sets and burners provided by installer or
customer.
