Safety Features
When away from home for an extended period
of time or as a child safety feature to prevent
accidental ignition of the fireplace, the receiver
ON/OFF/REMOTE switch should be in the
OFF position.
Auto Shutoff Feature
1. If the average room temperature exceeds
82 degrees Fahrenheit (28 degrees Centi-
grade), the hand-held remote control will
perform a safety override and shut the fire-
place off. This feature is not available in
the MANU mode.
2. The receiver continuously receives signals
from the hand-held remote to control the
room temperature. If the hand-held remote
is misplaced, obstructed, or for any reason
cannot transmit to the receiver, the receiver
will shut off the fireplace after 8 minutes.
Key Pad Lock Feature
This feature allows the user to lock/unlock the
keypad on the hand-held remote in the MANU
or AUTO mode to prevent inadvertent opera-
tion (i.e. children operating the hand-held re-
mote control, etc.). The keypad is locked in ei-
ther on or off. Press the POWER and LOCK
buttons together to turn the unit on or off.
INSPECTING BURNERS
Check pilot flame pattern and burner flame pat-
terns often.
PILOT FLAME PATTERN
Figure 37 shows a correct pilot flame pattern. Fig-
ure 38, shows an incorrect pilot flame pattern. The
incorrect pilot flame is not properly heating the
thermocouple. When the thermocouple cools, the
heater will shut down. If pilot flame pattern is in-
correct, as shown in Figure 38
• turn heater off (see
To Turn Off Gas to Appli-
ance
, page 20)
• see
Troubleshooting
, page 24
Note:
The pilot flame on natural gas units will
have a slight curve, but the flame should be blue
and have no yellow or orange color.
