tioned close to front in right or left corner where
ambient temperatures do not exceed 170
0
F.
The remote receiver is powered by 110-120VAC. It plugs
into a standard polarized duplex receptacle.
Locating Receiver and Operating Functions

0
F. This system is
designed to remotely operate the gas valve.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Installing Electrical Service to the Junction Box
WARNING: TURN ELECTRICAL POWER OFF
AT THE CIRCUIT BREAKER BEFORE BEGIN-
NING THIS INSTALLATION.
NOTE:
Some appliances do not have a cover plate.
Instead, there is a hole through which the Romex clamp
is attached to the outer wrap.
1. Remove the electrical cover plate from the lower
side of the fireplace. Remove the knock-out from
the plate and attach the Romex clamp (screws to
the outside) (see Figure 1).
2. Feed the electrical service wires through the Romex
clamp and secure the wires to the clamp.
3. Using the wire nuts provided, connect the service
wires to the junction box. The black wires to the
black service wire, the white wires to the white ser-
vice wire, and the service ground wire to the ground
stud of the junction box.
4. Re-attach the cover plate to the outside of the fire-
place.
WARNING: LEAVE ELECTRICAL POWER OFF

RECEIVER WIRING INSTRUCTIONS
Incorrect wiring connections WILL cause damage to the
gas valve or electronic module operating the gas appli-
ance and may also damage the remote receiver.
Wiring Millivolt Valves
Connect the remote receiver by connecting each of the
two wires leading from the remote receiver to either of
the two wire TH terminals on the gas valve (see Fig-
ure 2). Normally it does not matter which wires go to
which terminal.
Figure 2. Wiring Millivolt Valves
Alternative Wiring for units with a wall switch
Disconnect the wall switch wire from the TH terminal on
the valve and connect this wire to male connector sup-
plied on the receiver. Connect remaining female con-
nector from receiver to the TH terminal on the valve.
