Figure 45 shows a correct pilot flame pattern.
Figure 46 shows an incorrect pilot flame pat

tern. The incorrect pilot flame is not touching
the thermocouple. This will cause the thermo-
couple to cool. When the thermocouple cools,
the heater will shut down.
If pilot flame pattern is incorrect, as shown
in Figure 46
• turn heater off (see

pliance
, page 25

Note: The pilot flame on natural gas units will
have a slight curve, but flame should be blue
and have no yellow or orange color.
Note: Do not hold hand-held remote for a long
time. Body temperature will affect its operation
in the AUTO mode.
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 reaches
a range of 82° F (28° C) to 92° F (33° C),
hand-held remote control will perform a
safety override and shut fireplace off. This
feature is not available in MANU mode.
2. The receiver continuously receives sig-
nals 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. This will
occur in 8 or more minutes depending
upon location of remote transmitter an
strength of batteries.
Key pad Lock Feature
This feature allows the user to lock/unlock the
keypad on the hand-held remote in the MANU
