Manual On-Off Switch
In cases where you want to turn off your
fi
replace
and cannot do it with the remote control handset
(misplaced, lost, dead batteries, etc.) or if you need to
replace the receiver’s batteries, you can turn off the
appliance with the manual switch located on the right
hand side of the valve. If the wall switch is installed and
the remote control will not be used, remove the battery
from the handset and store it away.
If you are planning not to use your

prolonged period of time,
remove the battery from the
remote handset and turn off
the gas valve using the manual
ON/OFF switch.
Batteries
Low batteries signal: see page 24.
BEFORE changing the batteries, turn off the valve
using the manual On/Off switch —

on this page.
The appliance uses four alkaline 1.5 V AA batteries
for its remote control receiver and one 9 V alkaline
battery for its handset. Batteries should last one to two
seasons, depending on usage. Removing the batteries
in the off-season will extend the battery life. Should the
batteries loose power, the control may be operated by
manually turning the control knob at the valve or by
turning off the valve at the switch.
CAUTION
DO NOT USE
a screwdriver or other metallic object
to remove the batteries from the receiver or the
handset! This could cause a short circuit to the
receiver.
To replace the batteries in the remote control
receiver
:
1. The receiver is located to the left of the valve and it
is retained to the
fi
rebox by a
Velcro
tab. Grab the
receiver and pull it out from its location.
2. Slide and remove the receiver cover.
3. Replace the 4 AA alkaline batteries.
4. Replace the cover.
5. Put the receiver back in its position pushing it in so it
attaches to the
Velcro
tab.

Dust, etc. can be brushed from the ceramic fuel effects
and
fi
rebox walls after removing the front unit and
opening the window. Dust etc. can also be removed
from the burner using a soft brush after removing the
ceramic fuel effects.
When cleaning, make sure that
no particles are brushed into the slots in the burner.
Checks
A
periodic check of the pilot and burner
fl
ames should
be made. Check after the
fi
re has been on for at least
30 minutes. The pilot
fl
ame must cover the tip of the
thermocouple probe. The main burner
fl
ame pattern will
vary from appliance to appliance depending on the type of
installation and climatic conditions—see images below.
The appliance area must always be kept clear and
free from combustible materials, gasoline and other
fl
ammable vapors and liquids.
Inspect the vent terminal outdoors regularly to make
sure that, snow, leaves, bushes, trees, etc, do not
obstruct it.
Examine the vent system and terminal regularly. We
recommend annually.
