NOTICE: You must light the pilot
before using the hand-held re-
mote control unit. See
Lighting
Instructions
on page 10.
After lighting, let pilot flame burn for about
one minute. Turn control knob to ON posi-
tion. Adjust flame adjustment knob anywhere
between HI and LO. Flip AUTO/OFF/ON
switch to AUTO. Slide the selector switch
to the REMOTE position (see Figure 13).
Note:
The burner may light if hand-held
remote was on when selector switch was last
turned off. You can now turn the burner on and
off with the hand-held remote control unit.
IMPORTANT:
Do not leave the selector switch
in the REMOTE or ON position when the pilot
is not lit. This will drain the battery.

INSPECTING BURNERS
Check pilot flame pattern and burner flame pat-
terns often.
PILOT FLAME PATTERN
You can view the pilot light through the pilot
viewing hole on the pilot bracket. This is located
under the front grate bar on the right side of the
log set.
Figure 15 shows a correct pilot flame pattern.
Figure 16 shows an incorrect pilot flame pattern.
The incorrect pilot flame is not touching the ther-
mocouple. This will cause the thermocouple to
cool. When the thermocouple cools, the appliance
will shut down.
If pilot flame pattern is incorrect, as shown in
Figure 16
• turn appliance off (see
To Turn Off Gas to
Appliance,
page 10)
• see
Troubleshooting
, page 13
Note:
The pilot flame on natural gas units will
have a slight curve but flames should be blue and
have no yellow or orange color.
