OPTIONAL WALL SWITCH OR THERMOSTAT
WARNING: Do not connect electricity to the gas control valve or
control wiring system of this unit.
No electrical connection is required for this system operation. The
self-generating pilot provides current for the remote wall switch or wall
thermostat (not provided).
The installation of a wall switch allows for manual remote operation of
fireplace, and automatic operation with a wall thermostat. Use a
switch or thermostat rated for millivolts.
Position the wall switch or thermostat so that a minimum length of wire
is used from the switch to the fireplace. Use appropriate wire gauge
for length of wire. Connect the wall switch to the valve as shown in
figure #18.

OPTIONAL BLOWER
The optional blower kit (kit #OXFD.BLOW) is equipped with a three
prong power cord and may be installed at any time. Follow installation
instructions supplied with the kit.
Operation:
The optional circulating air blower is either thermostatically or manu-
ally controlled. Set to auto, the fan will only turn on if the appliance is
at operating temperature. A few minutes after the appliance is lit and
the variable speed control is set at a desired setting, the blower will
automatically turn on. The blower will automatically turn off a few
minutes after the appliance is shut down.
The blower may also be operated manually. Push the rocker switch
to manual position and the blower will operate independent of the
burner provided the variable speed control is set.
