in a standard plastic switch box or placed on or
QHDUWKH¿UHSODFHKHDUWK3UHIHUDEO\WKHUHPRWH
receiver should be wall-mounted in a plastic switch
box, as this will protect its electrical components
from both the heat produced by the gas appliance
and potential damage or abuse that can occur if it
is left exposed on the hearth. PROTECTION FROM
EXTREME HEAT IS VERY IMPORTANT. Like any
piece of electronic equipment, the remote receiver
should be kept away from temperatures exceeding
130
°
F inside the receiver case. Battery like is also

high temperatures.
Make sure the remote receiver switch is in the OFF
position. It is recommended that 18 gage solid or
stranded wires with no splices and measuring no
longer than 20 feet (not included) be used to make
connections between the terminal bloc on the mil-
livolt gas valve or electronic module and the wire
terminals on the remote receiver for wall-mount
installation.

Install 4 AA-size Alkaline batteries in the remote
receiver. For best performance, remote receiver
batteries should be factory fresh when installed.
Very little battery power is required to operate the
remote receiver, the electronics are tuned to oper-
ate best when battery output is greater than 5.3
Volts. Four new batteries should provide an output
voltage of 6.0 to 6.2 Volts.
Be sure batteries are
installed with the (+) and (-) ends facing the
correct directions.
To attached cover plate to receiver box, position
the receiver as shown in Figure 3 to the left with
the lower tab on cover plate inserted into groove of
receiver. Make sure ADJ hole and LEARN hole on
cover plate align properly with remote receiver. Pull
receiver up and snap into top tab of cover plate.
Position the cover plate so the word ON is facing
up, then, install the remote receiver into the plastic
switch box using the two long screws provided.
Push the white button over the receiver slide
switch only after making sure the remote receiver
has "Learned" the transmitter's security code (see
Matching Security Codes
).
NOTE: The remote receiver will only respond to
the transmitter when the 3-position slide button is
in the REMOTE position. If the system does not
respond to the battery transmitter on initial use,
see
Matching Security Codes
, and recheck battery
positions in the remote receiver.
