Access to the pilot burner is only required for ignition with a 

match.

When turning main valve knob, do not force. Knob has a slip 

clutch that clicks until the end stops are reached. This allows for 

manual flame height adjustment as well as adjustment to pilot 

standby position.

1.  

STOP! 

Read the safety information included before proceeding.

2.  Turn main valve knob to the 

OFF

, full clockwise 

 position.

3.  Turn MANUAL knob to the 

MAN

5.  Wait five (5) minutes to clear out any gas. Verify that no gas 

is in the area around the appliance, including near the floor. 

If you detect gas STOP! Follow “WHAT TO DO IF YOU 

SMELL GAS” in the safety information on page 2.

 If no gas 

is present, proceed to step 6.

6.  Place ON / OFF switch (if equipped) in 

I

7.  With the MANUAL knob in 

MAN

 position a manual pilot valve 

operator and piezo ignitor (optional) are accessible.

8.  Fully push down manual pilot valve operator and hold in, to 

start pilot gas flow (see figure 32).

   Ignition with match:

   Immediately light the pilot with a match, while continuing to 

hold in the manual pilot valve operator for about one (1) minute 

after the pilot is lit. Release manual pilot valve operator. If pilot 

does not stay lit, wait five (5) minutes and repeat.

  Ignition with piezo ignitor:

   Change the ignition cable from the receiver to the valve. Push 

in the piezo ignitor to ignite. If pilot does not stay lit, wait five (5) 

minutes and repeat.

If the pilot does not stay lit after several tries, turn the gas 

control knob (main valve knob) to 

OFF

 and proceed to step 12.

AUTOMATIC TURN DOWN TO PILOT

3 Hour No Communication Function

▪  The valve will turn to pilot flame if there is no communication 

between handset and receiver for a 3 hour period. The fire will 

continue to function normally when communication is restored. 

Receiver Overheating

▪  Powered by mains adapter: The valve turns to pilot flame if the 

receiver temperature is higher than 176 °F (80 °C). If batteries 

are installed in the receiver in this configuration the temperature 

must not exceed 60 °C.

▪  Powered by batteries and/or connected to the V module: The 

valve turns to pilot position if the temperature in the receiver is 

higher than 140 °F (60 °C).

NOTE:  

When the receiver temperature is below 140 °F (60 °C), 

the main burner can be turned ON manually. In Thermo-

static Mode, the main burner turns ON automatically.

1 Hour Turn Down 

(optional; requires special receiver and handset software)

▪  The valve will turn to pilot flame if there is no motor movement 

over a 1 hour period.

AUTOMATIC SHUT OFF

Countdown Timer

    

At end of countdown time period, the fire shuts off. The Count-

down Timer only works in Manual, Thermostatic, and Eco 

Modes. Maximum countdown time is 9 hours and 50 minutes.

Low Battery Receiver

▪  With low battery power in the receiver the system shuts off the 

fire completely. This will not happen if the power supply is inter-

rupted.

On-Demand Pilot

▪  This green feature eliminates gas energy consumption during 

extended appliance inactivity. When the appliance is inactive 

for an extended period of time the system automatically extin-

guishes the pilot. This feature helps the consumer realize cost 

benefits by automatically eliminating energy consumption dur-

ing non-heating months and limited use. 

▪  The programmed length of inactivity to activate the system is 

specified by the appliance manufacturer and cannot be altered 

in the field.

2

nd 

Thermocouple Shut Off  

(optional)

▪  The system shuts off the fire if the main burner does not com-

pletely ignite approximately 20 seconds after ignition or after 

pushing   button.

NOTE:

  Before the next ignition there is a 2 minute waiting pe-

riod. If the thermocouple is then still too hot, you will 

hear a long beep.
