H. Operation During A Power Outage (IPI
Plus)
The IntelliFire
™
Plus intermittent pilot ignition system
comes with a battery backup system that enables the
system to operate in a power outage. The system
offers seamless transition from household AC power to
battery backup. A factory-installed battery pack is located
at the lower left corner of the appliance adjacent to the
control module. See Figure 3.2. Battery longevity and
performance will be affected by long term exposure to the
service temperatures of this appliance.
NOTICE:
Batteries should only be used as a power source
in the event of an emergency power outage. Batteries
should not be used as a primary long-term power source.
To Operate Fireplace Using Battery Power (DC):
1. Access the control cavity of the appliance. See Figure
3.2 for location. The decorative front may need to be
removed.
2. Locate the battery tray and insert four AA cell batteries.
Battery polarity must be correct or module damage
will occur. See Figure 3.5. A complete wiring diagram
is included in the Electrical section of the appliance
Installation Manual.
Note:
Accessories, such as lights and fan, will not operate
under battery power.
