REMOTE CONTROL 

The remote control has a range of approximately 50 ft. (15.25m), it does not have to be 
pointed at the fireplace and can pass through most obstacles (including walls).  It is supplied 
with 243 independent frequencies to prevent interference with other units.

NOTE 
When the “BAT symbol is present on the remote control it is recommended to replace the 
batteries promptly, to maintain full functionality of the remote/fireplace. The remote transmitter 
has a battery backup time of only several hours.
