Operation of millivolt and electronic gas con-
trol systems are different. Before lighting and
operating your appliance determine if you have
a millivolt or electronic appliance. Familiarize
yourself with the gas control valve that your
appliance uses. Refer to
Figure 1
for access
to the gas control valve.
Millivolt Appliances
- Appliances with
Millivolt systems will be fi tted with the gas
control valve shown in
Figures 4 or 5.
Electronic Appliances
- Appliances with
electronic systems will be fi tted with the
electronic valve shown in
Figure 3.
Millivolt Appliances -
To light millivolt appli-
ances refer to the detailed lighting instructions
found on
Page 17
.
Millivolt appliance lighting
instructions may also be found on the pull out
lighting instruction labels attached to the gas
control valve
.
Millivolt appliances are fi tted with an OFF/ON
Rocker Switch located behind the control
compartment access door, below the appli-
ance front glass enclosure panel (see
Figure 2
for location). Once the pilot is lit, the OFF/ON
rocker switch will control the appliance OFF/ON
burner operation. To operate: Toggle the switch
between its ON and OFF positions.
If your millivolt appliance is equipped with an
optional remote switch kit (wall switch, remote
control or wall thermostat) and the pilot is lit,
the appliance main burner may be turned on
and off using the optional switch. When using
an optional remote switch, turn off the standard
OFF/ON switch.
OPERATION AND CARE OF YOUR
APPLIANCE
The standard controls for appliance operation
are located behind the hinged drop-down panel
below the appliance front glass enclosure panel
(see
Figure 1).
Optional control switches are
also available (see
Page 14
-
Remote Wall
Switch, Remote Control or Wall Thermostat
).
Note:
To prevent excessive resistance in burner
circuit (which can cause burner operation prob-
lems), only one burner control switch should be
wired to valve. Therefore, if an optional control
switch is installed, the standard Off/On switch
and wires should be removed.
