ATTENTION!
The transmitter and receiver are RADIO FREQUENCY DEVICES. Placing the receiver in or near metal may
severely reduce the signal range.
Turn off the main gas supply of the appliance during installation or maintenance of the receiver.
Place the receiver’s 3-position slider switch in the “off” position during installation or maintenance.
Turn “off” main gas supply to the appliance prior to removing or reinserting the batteries in the receiver.
During appliance installation/maintenance or in case of remote control malfunction, turn off electrical supply to
this appliance and remove the batteries from the receiver battery compartment. Contact technical service.
INITIALIZING THE REMOTE CONTROL SYSTEM
(Synchronizing Receiver and Transmitter)
1. Place 3-position slider switch in Receiver in
the “Remote” position.
2.
Locate “PRG” key on Receiver Face. Use
the tip of a pen/pencil or a wire clip to push
the PRG button. The receiver will beep 3
times indicating that it is ready to synchron-
ize with a Remote Transmitter.
3.
Push the “ON” key on the Remote Trans-
mitter. The receiver will beep 4 times to in-
dicate that the Transmitter’s command is
accepted and sets to the particular code of
that Transmitter. The system is now initia-
lized.
NOTE
: Use this Synchronizing procedure every
time the batteries are replaced in the Receiver
or the Transmitter.
IPI/STANDING PILOT SYSTEM
INFORMATION
Intermittent Pilot Light and Standing Pilot Light Features
This gas fireplace is equipped with an electronic ignition System that first
lights a pilot light then uses the pilot light to ignite the main burners. The
pilot light can be set in the “Standing Pilot” mode to allow the pilot light to
remain on indefinitely
by toggling the “Standing Pilot Switch” to the ON posi-
tion. If the “Standing Pilot Switch” is toggled to the OFF position, the pilot
light will only light and remain ON while the main fireplace burners are oper-
ating.
IPI Mode:
This mode turns the pilot light “OFF” when the fireplace is not func-
tioning and only lights the pilot light automatically when a call for heat is made by
the remote control.
Standing Pilot Mode
:
If the “Standing Pilot Switch” is toggled to ON, the pilot
light will ignite and remain ON as long as the “Standing Pilot Light Switch” is in the
ON position.
NOTE
:
Mendota Fireplaces recommends that the Standing Pilot Mode
be used during the winter months when external temperatures fall be-
low 50
o
F
. This will keep the fireplace chimney heated for proper updraft dur-
ing burner ignition and it will also eliminate excessive condensation of
exhaust vapors on the door glass. Further, leaving the fireplace in the
Standing Pilot Mode will keep the fireplace body warm and eliminate cold
drafts and heat loss to the cold air that is trapped inside the firebox.
