a child safety feature to prevent accidental ignition of the fire
-
place, the receiver ON/OFF/REMOTE switch should be in the
OFF position.
Auto Shutoff Feature
1. If the average room temperature exceeds 82° F (28° C), the
hand-held remote control will perform a safety override
and shut the fireplace off. This feature is not available in
the MANU mode.

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.
