OPERATING FIREPLACE
Continued
Note:
Do not leave the hand-held remote in the
AUTO mode close to the fireplace. The radiant
heat from the fireplace will turn off the fire-
place. Ideally, place the hand-held remote in the
center of the room facing towards the fireplace.
Note:
Do not hold the hand-held remote for a
long time. Body temperature will affect its op-
eration 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 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.

OPTIONAL GWMT1 WALL
MOUNTED THERMOSTAT
Make sure the heater switch is on AUTO and
set the temperature adjustment on wall ther-
mostat to the desired setting. The thermostat
has been electronically calibrated at the factory
and requires no adjustment or leveling.
Upon installation, the thermostat must be al-
lowed to stabilize at room temperature for a
minimum of 30 minutes for proper operation.
See installation instructions on pages 19 and 20.
OPTIONAL GWMS2 WALL
MOUNTED SWITCH
Make sure the heater switch is on AUTO. This wall
switch works just like the conventional light switch.
Flip the switch up for on and down for off.
Note:
Make sure that this switch is not in a po-
sition to be mistaken for a light switch. This may
result in the fireplace being inadvertently turned
on without the proper precautions being taken.
See installation instructions on pages 19 and 20.
OPERATING
BLOWER
This blower has three settings: ON, OFF, and
AUTO. In the ON position, the blower will op-
erate constantly. In the OFF position, the
blower will not operate. In the AUTO position,
the blower will start when the thermostat senses
a sufficient increase in firebox temperature.
Note:
Your fireplace and thermostat blower
will not turn on and off at the same time. The
fireplace may run for several minutes before
the blower turns on. After the heater modulates
to the pilot position, the blower will continue to
run. The blower will shut off after the firebox
temperature decreases.
Note:
It is safe to operate fireplace with blower
turned off. However, the blower helps distrib-
ute heated air from the fireplace.
