Note: Supply wires may be alternatively connected to the outlet using the screw terminals,
however the black supply wire must be ganged wired to the same terminal that the pre-wired black
wire is attached to and the white supply wire must be connected to the opposite side of the outlet.
Step 5. Installing the Optional Remote Wall
Switch (VF4000-CMN/P models only) – The
millivolt system comes from the factory wired
as shown in
Figure 10. Select a convenient
location for the remote wall switch and connect
the wiring to the appliance (
Figure 11 ).
CAUTION: DO NOT CONNECT THE OPTIONAL
REMOTE SWITCH TO A 120V POWER SUPPLY.
Note: The optional rocker switch is mounted to
the appliance and wired in the same way as the
remote wall switch.

Step 6. Installing the Optional Forced Air
Blower Kit Wiring – A receptacle plate is
provided for the installation of the FAB-1100
forced air blower kit (optional). Electrical
power must be provided to this plate to oper-
ate the blower.
Route a 3-wire, 120Vac power line with con-
trol switch to the lower left front corner of the
appliance. Supply wires are to be connected to
the outlet as shown in
Figure 12, ensuring that
the polarity (as determined by the colors of the
wires) is exactly as shown. The black and red
wire loop must be left intact, with the mating
connectors connected.

A. Light the appliance (refer to safety and
lighting instructions on pages 14 and 16).
B. Brush all joints and connections with the
gas leak test solution to check for leaks. If
bubbles are formed, or gas odor is detected,
turn the gas control knob to the “OFF” posi-
tion. Either tighten or refasten the leaking
connection and retest as described above.
C. When the gas lines are tested and leak free,
be sure to rinse off the leak testing solution.
D. When the gas lines are tested and leak free,
observe the individual tongues of flame on the
burner. Make sure all ports are open and
producing flame evenly across the burner. If
any ports are blocked, or partially blocked,
clean out the ports.
An external regulator must be used on all pro-
pane (L.P.G.) heaters, in addition to the regula-
tor fitted to the heater, to reduce the supply tank
pressure to 13" w.c. (maximum).
WARNING: CONNECTING DIRECTLY TO
AN UNREGULATED PROPANE TANK CAN
CAUSE AN EXPLOSION.
