INDICATORS
Cold Climate
This function turns on a small pilot flame and keeps the
air inside your appliance warm while not in use. It is a
useful feature in colder weather to minimize condensa-
tion on the appliance glass.
Note:
This feature is disabled when a Power Vent is
installed on the appliance.
Note:
The continuous pilot will automatically turn OFF
after 166 hours if appliance is not actively used. If Flame
ON is activated before 166 hours, the automatic timer will
re-start.
Temperature Display
You can toggle the temperature display between °F and
°C by tapping on the Room Temperature area.
Lights*
If your appliance is equipped with lighting features, use
this function to adjust them to your desired intensity. The
lights can be adjusted whether the flame is on or off.
* = Optional Feature
Power Vent*
Power Vent technology makes it possible to install a gas
appliance virtually anywhere. The Power Vent is a fan
powered accessory that pulls exhaust from the appliance
providing longer and more flexible venting configurations.
A Power Vent is a standard accessory on some products
and an option on others. When a Power Vent is detected,
a pre-purge of 120 seconds is automatically required.
During this time, the power icon is temporarily replaced
with 2MIN, 90s, 60s, and 30s, denoting the countdown
until the appliance turns on. All other functions, except
for TURN FLAME OFF are disabled during this time.
The Power Vent is always ON when the flame is ON.
When the flame is turned off, a post-purge time of
approximately 20 minutes will occur.
Cold-climate function and battery backup are disabled if
a Power Vent is used.

Fan Speed*
If your appliance is equipped with the fan feature, use
this function to increase or decrease the amount of heat
released into your room. A built-in delay timer will turn
the fan on three minutes after your appliance has been
running to prevent cool air from being pushed into the
room. If the flame is turned off with the fan ON, the fan
will continue to run for 12 minutes then shutdown as long
as the flame stays off.
Your appliance will remember the previous fan speed
setting and automatically adjust to that level 3 minutes
after start-up.
