GWMT1 WALL
MOUNTED
THERMOSTAT
(OPTIONAL)
Make sure the heater switch is on AUTO
and set the temperature adjustment on
wall thermostat 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 allowed to stabilize at room tempera-
ture for a minimum of 30 minutes for
proper operation. See installation instruc-
tions on pages 16 and 17 of this manual.
GWMS2 WALL
MOUNTED SWITCH
(OPTIONAL)
Make sure the heater switch is on AUTO.
This wall switch works just like the con-
ventional light switch. Flip the switch up
for on and down for off.
Note:
Make sure that this switch is not in
a position to be mistaken for a light switch.
This may result in the heater being inad-
vertently turned on without the proper
precautions being taken. See installation
instructions on page 17 of this manual.
IMPORTANT:
The hand-held remote
control unit must be near the heater.
Do not keep the hand-held remote
control unit too close to the heater.
The thermostat on the hand-held re-
mote control unit will heat up too
quickly and turn the heater off.
3.
Use the STATUS button on the hand-
held remote control unit to see the
operation mode being used and the
temperature setting selected. A red
light will come on beside the opera-
tion mode being used when the sta-
tus button is pressed.
4.
To turn the burner off when operating
in the manual mode, press the OFF
button. If operating in the auto mode,
press the MAN button, then press the
OFF button. The pilot will remain lit.
IMPORTANT:
To turn the pilot off,
manually turn the control knob on the
heater to the OFF position.
OPERATING BLOWER
Auto/Off/On Switch
This blower has three settings: ON, OFF,
and AUTO. In the ON position, the blower
will operate constantly. In the OFF posi-
tion, 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 distribute heated air from the
fireplace.
