This remote control system allows the user to control
the height of the FLAME when the gas valve is factory
equipped with a FLAME CONTROLLER.

Press and release FLAME button to change fl ame height
to HI (see Figure 2.6, Location #5), a second fl ame icon
appears.
• Press again to return fl ame to normal state.
Low/Battery Indicator
An “X” outlined by a battery on the right side of the LCD
screen will appear when battery power has dropped sig-
nifi cantly. At this time, approximately two weeks of battery
power remains.
Child Proof Lockout (CP)
The transmitter contains a “Child Proof” lockout feature
that prevents unauthorized use of the remote control. To
access the “Child Proof” activation button, remove cover
on BACK of transmitter. To activate LOCKOUT:
• Press and hold in the “setting button” for 5 seconds
(see Figure 2.7). The letters CP will display on the LCD
screen). This prevents the activation of fi replace. When
any function button is pressed ON/OFF etc. the letter
CP will display on the LCD screen.
To deactivate LOCKOUT:
•
Press and hold in the “setting button” for 5 seconds. The
LCD will display CP until 5 seconds have elapsed, and
then the LCD screen will return to its normal state.
Transmitter Safety Features
It is recommended that the TRANSMITTERS always be
located within a 20 foot operating range of the fi replace,
preferably in the same room in which the fi replace system
is located. The TRANSMITTER features several safety
features that alert the user when the TRANSMITTER is
placed outside the 20 foot normal operating range.
Thermo-Updating and Communication-Safety
Features
This remote control has a COMMUNICATION-SAFETY
function built into its software. It provides an extra margin
of safety when the TRANSMITTER is out of the normal
20 foot operating range of the receiver. It is also activated
when the batteries become weak or are removed from
the transmitter.
In the THERMO-UPDATING feature (only in the THER-
MO or TIMER modes) the transmitter normally reads the
ROOM temperature every 2 minutes. In addition to check-
ing the temperature, the transmitter sends a signal to the
receiver indicating that the transmitter and its batteries
are still active.
In the COMMUNICATION-SAFETY feature, at all times
and in all OPERATING MODES the transmitter sends a
signal every 15 minutes to the receiver, indicating that the
transmitter is within the normal operating range of 20 feet.
Should the receiver NOT receive a transmitter signal
every 15 minutes (COMMUNICATION-SAFETY feature),
the RECEIVER will begin a 2 HOUR (120 minute) count-
down timing function. If during this 2 hour period, the re-
ceiver does not receive a signal from the transmitter, the
RECEIVER will shut down the fi replace being controlled
by the receiver. The RECEIVER will then emit a series of
rapid “beeps”. Then, after 10 rapid “beeps”, the RECEIV-
ER will continue to emit a single “beep” every 4 seconds
until a transmitter signal is again received. The intermit-
tent 4 second beeping will go on indefi nitely until reset.
To “reset” the RECEIVER and operate the fi replace sys-
tem:
•
Press the MODE button on the transmitter. The word ON
must display on the LCD screen. The COMMUNICATION
-SAFETY operation is overridden and the system will
return to normal operation depending on the MODE
selected at the transmitter. We recommend the user
check the batteries in the TRANSMITTER to make sure
the voltage is no less than 2.7 volts.
Auto Shutdown
This remote control has an Auto Shutdown feature incor-
porated into its system. When the transmitter MODE is
in the ON position the fi replace will continuously operate
for 9 hours. After 9 hours, the fi replace will shut down. To
relight the fi replace:
• Press the MODE button. The fi replace will operate
continuously for up to 9 hours before Auto Shutdown
repeats cycle. The Auto Shutdown signal comes from
the transmitter. The transmitter must be positioned within
a 20 ft operating range for the Auto Shutdown feature to
operate.
System Check
Light the appliance following the lighting instructions that
came with the fi replace. Confi rm that the pilot fl ame is on.
It must be in operation for the main gas valve to operate.
•
Slide the 3-position button on the remote receiver to the
ON position. The main gas fl ame (i.e., the fi re) should
ignite.
• Slide the button to OFF. The fl ame should extinguish
(the pilot fl ame will remain on).
• Slide the button to REMOTE (the center position), then
press the MODE button on the transmitter to change the
system to ON. The main gas fl ame should ignite.
•
Press the MODE button on the transmitter to change the
system to OFF. The fl ame should extinguish (the pilot
fl ame will remain on).
• Press the MODE button on the transmitter to change
the system to THERMO.
