INSTALLATION

Since the VDVF36 series models use a valve that operates on millivolt current gen- erated by the pilot, a wall switch may be used to activate the gas control valve with- out the use of normal household electricity.

1.To remove the louvers, simultaneously pull both top end spring latches towards the center of the appliance until they are disengaged from locating holes. Repeat for bottom end spring latches and pull outward. Reverse the proce- dure to install louvers back onto the appliance (see Figure 32).

2.Connect the 18 ga. wires from wall switch to the gas control valve and microswitch, as shown in Figure 33.

WARNING: Do not wire re- mote wall switch to main power supply (Standard 120v household current).

ELECTRICAL HOOKUP FOR BLOWER ACCESSORY
