OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

750 Millivolt System

The standing pilot (750 millivolt system) is a continuous burning pilot. The pilot remains ON even when the main burner is OFF.

When you ignite the pilot, the thermopile produces millivolts (electrical current) which energizes the magnet in the gas valve. After 30 seconds to 1 minute time period you can release the gas control knob and the pilot will stay ON. Allow your pilot flame to operate an additional one (1) to two (2) minutes before you turn the gas control knob from the PILOT position to the ON position. This time period allows the millivolts (electrical current) to build-up to a sufficient level allowing the gas control to operate properly.

1.Follow the SAFETY and LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS for standing pilot controls found in this manual and on labels found in control compartment behind the door assembly.

CAUTION: During the initial purging and subsequent lightings, never allow the gas valve control knob to remain depressed in the “pilot” position without pushing the piezo ignitor button at least once every second.

2.During the operating season, leave the control valve knob in the “ON” position. This will allow the pilot flame to remain lit. Turn the burner flame on or off with the fireplace REMOTE/OFF/ON switch, wall switch or remote controls.

NOTE: The gas control valve allows you to increase or decrease the height of the main burner flame. The control valve has a pressure regulator with a knob as shown in Figure 58. Rotate the knob clockwise to “HI” to increase the flame height and counterclockwise to “LO” to decrease the flame height.

3.When the operating season is over, turn the REMOTE/OFF/ON switch to “OFF” and the control valve to “OFF”. The system, including the pilot light, will be shut down.

HI/LO REGULATOR

The OWNER should carefully read and follow these operating instructions at all times. Lower the door assembly to view the gas controls for the fireplace.

Initial Lighting

Upon completing the gas line or turning the gas valve on after it has been in the “OFF” position, a small amount of air will be in the lines. When first lighting the fireplace, it will take a few minutes for the lines to purge themselves of this air. Once the purging is complete, the fireplace will light and operate satisfactorily.

Subsequent lightings of the appliance will not require such purging if the gas valve is not turned to “OFF.”

Pilot Flame (Figure 59)

The thermopile/thermocouple (standing pilot) tips should be covered with flame.
