Control Panel Access Door Installation
1) Place two hinges on the access door in the open
position.
2) Lay the door on the fireplace with the hinge
mounting holes positioned over the two mounting
holes located on each side of the fireplace.
3) Secure with the four #8 self-tapping screws
provided.
REMOTE CONTROL (OPTIONAL)
An Alpine Remote Control Kit (08501) may be
installed on this fireplace. The remote control kit
comes with a hand held transmitter, and a receiver.
The remote control is thermostatically controlled so
you can set the fireplace to the desired room
temperature, and have that temperature maintained.
The remote control is battery powered and will require
periodic maintenance to keep the system working
properly.

PRIMARY AIR ADJUSTMENTS
The flame should have a blue base with yellow tips
(See fig. 9B). A dark orange flame with sooting and
black smoke indicates a lack of primary air. The
primary air shutter is located in the firebox on the right
hand side of the burner. Adjust the primary mixture by
loosening the set screw on the air shutter and
increasing the opening for more air and a bluer,
cleaner flame, or by closing the air shutter for a more
yellow flame. See figure 10.
The primary air adjustment is preset at the factory.
Little or no adjustment may be required for natural
gas. Propane will perform very differently at different
altitudes and from different fuel suppliers. Some
adjustment will most likely be needed for an appliance
burning propane.
DERATING THE BURNER
The fireplace has been designed to operate at
elevations approximately 4500 ft. above sea level. No
deration of the burner needs to occur unless the
fireplace is installed at elevations below 2500 ft. or
above 6500 ft. The burner orifice should then be
adjusted one drill size smaller for higher elevations
and one drill size larger for lower elevations.
TRIM AND DOOR INSTALLATION
Attach all trim panels before snugly tightening all of
the screws. This will provide you with the ability to
make all joints uniform.
1. Attach the bottom trim piece with the screws
provided.
2. Attach the top trim panel
3. Attach the left and right side panels
4. Line up the outside edge of the right side piece with
the edge of the top piece. Line up the right side piece
with the bottom piece. Secure the right side piece.
