GAS CONTROL MODULE SYSTEM

The module has 2 special features built into the system.

Continuous Pilot Feature

This allows the change from a spark to pilot system to a standing 

pilot system
1. There is a switch located on the right side of the module that reads 

CONTINUOUS PILOT ON/OFF. This switch selects the pilot's mode of 

operation 

(

Figure 26

).

2. When the continuous pilot switch is in the OFF position and the appli-

ance rocker switch is turned ON, the pilot will spark and light. When 

the appliance rocker switch is turned OFF, the pilot will shut OFF when 

the main burner shuts OFF.

3. When the continuous pilot switch is in the ON position and the appli-

ance rocker switch is turned ON, the pilot will spark and light. When 

the appliance rocker switch is turned OFF, the pilot will stay ON when 

the main burner shuts OFF.

Remote Control Feature

The module has a built in remote control receiver that allows the 

user to program the remote transmitter at any time during or after 

the installation of the burner.
1. There is a switch located on the right side of the module that reads 

REMOTE/OFF 

(

Figure 27

).

2. When the remote/off switch is in the OFF position, the burner will 

operate from the rocker switch or wall switch connected to the 

two BROWN wires on the module.

3. When the remote/off is in the REMOTE position the burner will 

operate from the Remote Control transmitter.

Figure 25a - Installing/Removing Glass Panel

Clear glass pebbles are included with your fireplace. Install the glass 

pebbles before installation of optional Draft Shield Kit, LV43DS 

(F1031).
1.  Place glass pebbles in a single layer evenly on the pebble pan. 

Make certain that the correct media is used. If crushed glass 

or other media is used, replaced it with the proper media listed 

on the price list. Make certain the media is placed precisely as 

indicated in this instruction manual (single layer of pebbles in 

straight rows) and all glass remains on the pebble tray with no 

glass at all on the burner.

OPTIONAL DRAFT SHIELD KIT INSTALLATION (F1031)

NOTE:

 Barrier kit cat. no. F2882 is required when installing this kit.

The glass panel assembly should be installed after the fireplace is 

completely framed and finished. The brackets are attached to the front 

side face of the fireplace using two screws as shown in

 Figure 25a. 

Position the glass panel in the bracket so that it is securely in place.
