INTRODUCTION
This remote control system was developed to provide a safe, reliable, and user-friendly remote control system for gas
heating appliance. The system can be operated thermostatically or manually from the transmitter. The system operates on
radio frequencies (RF) within a 20 feet range using non-directional signals. The system operates one of 1,048,576 secu-
rity codes that are programmed into the transmitter at the factory; the remote receiver’s code must be matched to that of
the transmitter prior to initial use.

exists.
INSTALLATION AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
The transmitter operates on 2AAA-size 1.5V batteries. It is recommended that ALKALINE bat-
teries always be used for longer battery life and maximum operational performance.
IMPORTANT:
New or fully charged batteries are essential for proper operation of the multi-
function transmitter.
Insert 2 AAA-size 1.5 V batteries into the battery transmitter, positioning the (+) and (-) ends
of the batteries as indicated on the casing. When the batteries are inserted, the screen below
(with similar numbers) will display.
Note:
If a LOW battery icon appears on the screen, check the position of the batteries.
Note:
Due to the sensitive temperature-monitoring
components in the transmitter, it may be necessary to
allow the transmitter to stabilize to room temperature
before accurate room temperatures are displayed
on the screen. If the transmitter is activated from a
severe cold condition, it can take up to fifteen minutes
for accurate temperature readings to appear.
