Auto Shutoff Feature

1.If the average room temperature exceeds 82 degrees Fahr- enheit (28 degrees Centigrade), the hand-held remote con- trol will perform a safety override and shut the fireplace off. This feature is not available in the MANU mode.

2.The receiver continuously receives signals from the hand- held remote to control the room temperature. If the hand- held remote is misplaced, obstructed, or for any reason cannot transmit to the receiver, the receiver will shut off the fireplace after 8 minutes.

Key Pad Lock Feature

This feature allows the user to lock/unlock the keypad on the hand-held remote in the MANU or AUTO mode to prevent inadvertent operation (i.e. children operating the hand-held re- mote control, etc.). The keypad is locked in either on or off. Press the POWER and LOCK buttons together to turn the unit on or off.

OPERATING OPTIONAL GWMT1

WALL MOUNTED THERMOSTAT

WARNING: Do not connect the thermostat to a power source. Electrical shock and/or a fire hazard will occur.

Light the fireplace as instructed in Lighting Instructions on page 25. Set wall thermostat to desired temperature.

This thermostat has been electronically calibrated at the factory and requires no adjustment or leveling.

Upon installation, the thermostat must be allowed to stabilize at room temperature for a minimum of 30 minutes for proper operation.

To turn the fireplace off, adjust thermostat to the lowest setting and turn the gas control knob back to PILOT. The pilot will remain lit.

IMPORTANT: To turn the pilot off, turn the gas control knob on the heater to the OFF position.

OPERATING OPTIONAL

BLOWER ACCESSORY

Locate the blower controls by opening the lower louver panel on the fireplace. Blower controls are located on the left side of the switch bracket to the left just inside the louver panel.

The BK manual blower and the BKT thermostatically-con- trolled blower have an ON setting and an OFF setting. The blower will only run when the switch is in the ON position. In the OFF position, the blower will not operate.

Note for BKT Only: If you are using BKT blower with optional thermostat (wall mounted or remote control) for the fireplace, your fireplace and blower will not turn on and off at the same time. The fireplace may run for several minutes before the blower turns on. After the heater modulates to the pilot position, the blower will continue to run. The blower will shut off after the firebox temperature decreases.

The blower helps distribute heated air from the fireplace. Periodically check the louvers of the firebox and remove any dust, dirt, or other obstructions that will hinder the flow of air.

INSPECTING BURNERS

Check pilot flame pattern and burner flame patterns often.

PILOT ASSEMBLY

The pilot assembly is factory preset for the proper flame height. Alterations may have occurred during shipping and handling. Call a qualified service person to readjust the pilot if necessary.

The height of the thermopile must be 3/8" to 1/2" above the pilot flame as shown in Figure 55. The thermocouple must be at a height of about 1/8" above the pilot flame. The flame from the pilot burner must extend beyond both the thermocouple and thermopile.

If you pilot assembly does not meet these requirements:

•turn fireplace off (see To Turn Off Gas to Appliance, page 25)

•see Troubleshooting, pages 29 through 31

BURNER FLAME PATTERN

Burner flames will be steady; not lifting or floating. Flame patterns will be different from unit to unit and will vary depending on installation type and weather conditions.

If the vent configuration is installed incorrectly, the flames will lift or "ghost". This can be dangerous. Inspect the flames after installa- tion to ensure proper installation and performance.
