 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
  RN & RP VALVE ONLY

This unit comes pre-wired from the factory for
connection of the burner on/off switch. A
connection must be made between these wires before
the main burner will ignite. 

Do not wire to 110 AC.

1.   Refer to “Trim Assembly Instructions,” Page 8, to
      find burner on/off switch location. If switch has
      not been installed, do it now.
2.   Route wires connected to gas valve out gas line
      access hole and up back side of face assembly.
3.    Route wires through hole between leg and top face.
4.   Connect wires to switch. It does not matter which
      wire is connected to which terminal on switch.

NOTE: 

 A remote control or thermostat can be

connected in conjunction with the on/off
switch. Connect each as show below. Do not
exceed recommended wire length in table
below.

 INITIAL BURNING

PLEASE NOTE:

It is normal for your unit to give off some odor
the first time it is burned. This is due to the
curing of the paint and any undetected oil from
the manufacturing process.
Please ensure that your room is well ventilated
– open all windows.
It is recommended that you burn your unit for
at least six (6) hours continuously the first time
you use it. If optional fan kit has been installed,
place fan in the “OFF” position during this
time.
Please note that it is normal for appliances
fabricated of steel to give off some expansion
and/or contraction noises during the start-up
or cool-down cycle. Similar noises are found
with your furnace heat exchanger or car
engine.

  FOR UNITS EQUIPPED

WITH HI-LO  FEATURE

This feature is manually operated. The location
of the control knob is on the front face of the
gas control in the center. To access the control knob,
lower the bottom grille and turn knob.
