MOUNTING THE REMOTE RECEIVER
HEARTH MOUNT
•
The remote receiver can be placed on the fireplace hearth or under the fire-
place behind the control access panel.
• MAKE SURE THAT WHERE THE RECEIVER IS PLACED DOES NOT
EXCEED 170ºF. IT WILL CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE PRODUCT.
•
Use the wires attached to the remote receiver to connect to the gas valve or
the electric module.
•
Be sure that the connectors do not touch each other or other bare metal
surfaces; this will cause the appliance to turn on. The connectors may be
wrapped with electrical tape to prevent this.
