INSTALLATION

WALL SWITCH

INSTALLATION

Since the VDDVF36 series models use a valve that operates on millivolt current gen- erated by the pilot, a wall switch (not in- cluded) may be used to activate the gas control valve without 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 (not included) 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

Before blower accessory can be operated, it must be properly connected to a standard 120 VAC power source. Refer to Wiring Diagram on page 23.

An outlet box with two receptacles has been supplied for your convenience, located on the lower left side of the appliance (see Figure 34). An optional remote control may be installed at any time.

CAUTION: Due to high tem- peratures, make sure no wires are touching the bottom of the firebox.
