RECEIVER
Install the (4) AA-size batteries supplied with the unit. It is recommended that ALKALINE batteries always be used for this
product. Be sure the batteries are installed with the (+) and (-) ends facing the correct direction.
The remote receiver has a 3-position slide switch for selecting the mode of operation ON/REMOTE/OFF.
ON
: will manually turn ON the appliance.
REMOTE
: will allow use of handheld transmitter. If the system
does not respond to the transmitter on initial use, check the
battery positions in the remote. If that does not work, see the
LEARNING TRANSMITTER TO RECEIVER section.
OFF

This remote control system must be installed exactly as outlined in these instructions. Read all instructions completely
before attempting installation. Follow instructions carefully during installation. Any modifications of this remote control
or any of its components will void the warranty and may pose a fire hazard.
Do not connect any gas valve or electronic module directly to 110-120VAC power. Consult gas appliance
manufacturer’s instructions and wiring schematics for proper placement of all wires. All electronic modules are to be
wired to manufacturer’s specifications.
The following wiring diagrams are for illustration purpose only. Follow instructions from manufacturer of gas valve and/
or electronic module for correct wiring procedures. Improper installation of electric components can cause damage to
electronic module, gas valve and remote receiver.
WARNING
The remote receiver can be
Wall Mounted
into a standard plastic switch box or
(Hearth Mounted
)
placed on or near the
fireplace hearth. Determine where you will install the receiver before proceeding. Preferably, the remote receiver should
be wall-mounted in a plastic switch box, as this will protect its electronic 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 receiver should be kept away from
temperatures exceeding 130°F inside the receiver case. Battery life is also significantly shortened if batteries are exposed
to high temperatures.
When installing the receiver into a switch box ensure the receiver switch is in the
OFF
position before installation. The
receiver is supplied with 18-inches of wire. If additional wire is required it is recommended that 18 gauge stranded or solid
wires (not included) be used to make connections between the terminal wiring block on the millivolt gas valve or electronic
module and the wire terminals on the remote receiver. For the best results, use 18 gauge stranded or solid wire, splice
into the black wires of the receiver or remove the black wires and install wires directly to the receiver. Be sure no splices
measure longer than 20-feet and allow ample wire to remove the receiver for annual battery replacement.
