AUTO SHUT DOWN
This remote control has an auto shut down feature incorporated into its system. When the transmitter mode is in the ON
position, the appliance will only run for 9 hours. After that it will shut down. To reactivate the appliance, press the
MODE
button.
CP (CHILDPROOF) FEATURE
This remote control includes a childproof feature that allows the user to “lock-out” operations from the transmitter.
• To activate and de-activate the childproof feature, press and hold the
SETTING
button
behind the battery cover for 5
seconds (The letters “CP” will briefly appear on the LCD screen when childproof mode is activated).
• “CP” will appear on the LCD screen if any button is pressed while childproof mode is engaged.
• When this mode is engaged, all auto settings go on without interruption (like thermostat). Only manual functions are
prevented.
BATTERY LIFE
Life expectancy of the alkaline batteries in the transmitter should be at least 12 months. Check and replace all batteries:
• Annually.
• When operating range becomes reduced.
• When transmissions are not received by the remote receiver.
• If the hand held transmitter batteries measure less than 2.5 volts (Both batteries in combination).
TRANSMITTER WALL BRACKET
The transmitter can be hung on a wall using the clip provided.
• Wood - Drill 1/8’’ pilot holes and install with screws provided.
• Plaster/Wallboard - Drill 1/4’’ holes. Use a hammer to tap in the two plastic
anchors. Then install the screws provided.
TROUBLE SHOOTING
If you encounter problems with your fireplace system, the problem may be with either the fireplace itself or with the
remote. Review the fireplace manufacturer’s operation manual to make sure all connections are properly made. Then
check the operation of the remote in the following manner:
• Make sure all batteries are correctly installed in the transmitter. Also check that the batteries are fully charged.
• Check batteries in transmitter to make sure contacts are touching (+) and (-) ends of battery. Bend metal contacts in
for tighter fit.
• Be sure receiver and transmitter are within 20’- 25’ operating range.
• Keep receiver from temperatures exceeding 130° F. Battery life will be shortened if exposed to high temperatures.
• If receiver is installed in a tightly enclosed metal surrounding, the operating distance will be shortened.
• Make sure the hand-held transmitter and remote receiver are communicating properly (see LEARNING
TRANSMITTER TO RECEIVER section).
When the ambient temperature at the THERMISTOR, inside the receiver case, reaches 130°F, the THERMISTOR will
automatically shut the appliance down and the RECEIVER will begin emitting a series of 4 “beeps”, every 2 seconds.
When the ambient temperature, at the RECEIVER, drops between 120°F and 130°F, the user can reactivate the
appliance by pushing the MODE button on the transmitter. The word ON must display on the LCD screen. When the
MODE button is pressed to ON, the THERMISTOR “resets” itself and the fireplace will begin operating again. However,
the “beeping” will continue, if the ambient temperature remains between 120°F and 130°F. This “beeping” alerts the user
that the RECEIVER should be repositioned so the ambient temperature drops below 120°F.
When the temperature drops below 120°F, the “beeping” will cease, providing the user has “reset” the THERMISTOR
by pushing the MODE button OFF then ON to operate the appliance. Allow sufficient time for the receiver to cool below
120°F, and then press MODE button to stop beeping.
