BATTERY LIFE
Life expectancy of the alkaline batteries in the
remote control should be at least 12 months.
Check and replace all batteries annually.
When the remote control no longer operates
the remote receiver from a distance it did pre-
viously or the remote receiver does not func-
tion at all, the batteries should be checked. It
is important that the remote receiver batteries
are fully charged and provide continuous out-
put voltage of at least 5.3 Volts. The length of
the wire, the more battery power is required to
deliver signals between the remote receiver
and the gas valve. Recommended length is
no longer than 20 feet The remote control
should operate with as little as 9.0 Volts bat-
tery power.

Be sure receiver and remote control are
within 20 to 25 feet operating range.
Keep receiver from temperatures ex-

°
F. Battery life is shortened
about this level.
If receiver is installed in tightly enclosed
metal surround, the operating distance
will shorten.
ADJUSTMENTS
To adjust at the receiver, use a small slotted
screwdriver. Turn the adjustment screw counter-
clockwise about 5 degrees or a maximum of 1/8
turn. This should correct the distance problem.
If the problem is not corrected, return adjustment
screw to original position and then turn adjustment
screw clockwise.
This adjustment is like turning your radio dial. If you
keep turning the adjustment screw, in either direc-
tion, you will go past the proper setting (tuning).
