Replacing batteries
Low batteries signals:
• Handset: battery icon on display shows 1 lit bar
• Holder: frequent beeps for 3 seconds when valve
motor turns.
BEFORE changing the batteries, turn the stove o ff
(including pilot) and let it cool.
The stove uses four 1.5 V AA
alkaline batteries in a
separate battery holder located next to the receiver
under the fi rebox and one 9V alkaline battery in its
