CURING 

LOGS

During the 2-3 hour appliance break-in period, 
you may detect an odor from the appliance 
as the various paints and compounds used in 
the manufacturing of this log set cure. This is 
a normal and temporary situation that is not 
cause for alarm. However, you may want to 
provide extra ventilation to the room during 
this time.
To ensure proper curing of the logs:
•  Ignite a 2" flame and maintain it for 1 hour.
•  Burn the logs in consecutive 1 hour periods 

raising  the  flame  an  additional  2"  to  full 
flame height for a total of three hours.

OPTIONAL HAND-HELD 

REMOTE OPERATION

Note:  All  remote  control  accessories  must 
be purchased separately. Follow instructions 
included with the remote control.

NOTICE: You must light the pilot 

before using the hand-held re

-

mote control unit. See 

Lighting 

Instructions

, page 12.

After lighting, let pilot flame burn for about one 
minute. Turn control knob to ON position. Adjust 
flame adjustment knob anywhere between HI 
and  LO.  Slide  the  selector  switch  to  the  RE

-

MOTE position. 

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.

ON/OFF SERIES (MODEL HRC201)

Hold  the  control  button  on  the  hand-held 
remote until burner turns on. Hold the control 
button again until burner turns off.
TO LOCK press both buttons on hand-held 
remote control until light stops flashing. Hand-
held remote control is now locked. If the fire 
is on it will be turned off automatically. In the 
locked state, the light will not light up when 
any button is pressed.

 

TO  UNLOCK  press  both  buttons  together 
on  hand-held  remote  control  until  the  light 
stops flashing. The hand-held remote is now 
unlocked.

GWMS2 WALL MOUNTED 

SWITCH (OPTIONAL)

This wall switch works just like the conven

tional  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 log set being inadvertently 
turned  on  without  the  proper  precautions 
being taken. See installation instructions on 
page 8 of this manual.

InsPeCTIng burners 

Check  pilot  flame  pattern  and  burner flame 
patterns often.

PILOT ASSEMBLY

The  pilot  assembly  is  factory  preset  for  the 
proper  flame  height. Alterations  may  have 
occurred during shipping and handling. The 
pilot  is  located  on  the  back  right  hand  side 
of the burner.
The thermocouple should be fully enveloped 
in the flame. The flame should not be lifting 
off of the thermocouple element.

If  your  pilot  assembly  does  not  meet  these 
requirements:
•  Turn  the  adjustment  screw  marked  pilot 

clockwise to decrease or counterclockwise 
to increase the flame to proper size (see 
Figure  20,  page  14).  Do  not  remove  the 
adjustment screw.
