Remote Control Unit
Note: Do not leave the hand-held remote in
the AUTO mode close to the fireplace. The
radiant heat from the fireplace will turn off the
fireplace. Ideally, place the hand-held remote
in the center of the room facing towards the
fireplace.
Note: Do not hold the hand-held remote for
a long time. Body temperature will affect its
operation in the AUTO mode.
Safety Features
When away from home for an extended period
of time or as a child safety feature to prevent
accidental ignition of the fireplace, the receiver
ON/OFF/REMOTE switch should be in the
OFF position.
Auto Shutoff Feature
1. If the average room temperature reaches
a range of 82° F (28° C) to 92° F (33° C),
the hand-held remote control will perform
a safety override and shut the fireplace off.
This feature is not available in the MANU
mode.
2. The receiver continuously receives sig-
nals from the hand-held remote to control
the room temperature. If the hand-held
remote is misplaced, obstructed or for any
reason cannot transmit to the receiver, the
receiver will shut off the fireplace. This will
occur in 8 or more minutes depending
upon location of remote transmitter and
strength of batteries.
Key pad Lock Feature
This feature allows the user to lock/unlock the
keypad on the hand-held remote in the MANU
or AUTO mode to prevent inadvertent op-
eration (i.e. children operating the hand-held
remote control, etc.). The keypad is locked in
either on or off. Press the POWER and LOCK
buttons together to turn the unit on or off.
