OPTIONAL HAND-HELD

REMOTE OPERATION

Note: The receiver and hand-held remote control kit must be purchased separately (see Accessories, page 27). Follow installa- tion instructions on pages 10 and 11 of this manual.

1.After lighting, let pilot flame burn for about one minute. Turn control knob to ON position. Slide the selector switch to the REMOTE position. Note: The burner may light if hand-held remote ON button was on when selector switch was last turned off. You can now turn the burner on and off with the hand-held remote control unit.

IMPORTANT: Do not leave the selector switch in the REMOTE position when the pilot is not lit. This will drain the battery. IMPORTANT: Be sure to press the ON/OFF buttons on the hand-held remote control unit for up to 3 seconds to assure proper operation.

2.Press the ON/OFF button to turn the burner on and off. When turning burner off, the pilot will remain lit. IMPORTANT: To turn the pilot off, manually turn the con- trol knob on the heater to the OFF position.

Figure 37 - Correct Pilot Flame Pattern

BURNER FLAME PATTERN

Burner flames will be steady; not lifting or floating. Flames should go up through the middle of logset. Flames should not "spill" to the edges of the pan or sides of the logset.

Figure 38 shows a typical flame pattern. If burner flame pattern differs from that described:

turn appliance off (see To Turn Off Gas to Appliance)

see Troubleshooting, pages 19 through 21

Shutting Off Heater

Press in and turn control knob clockwise Clockwise to the OFF position.

Shutting Off Burner Only (pilot stays lit)

Turn remote control/wall switch (if installed) to the OFF position.

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. The pilot is located on the back right hand side of the burner.

The height of the thermopile must be 3/8" to 1/2" above the pilot flame. The flame from the pilot burner must extend beyond the thermopile.

If your pilot assembly does not meet these requirements:

Turn the adjustment screw marked pilot clockwise to decrease or counterclockwise to increase the flame to proper size (see Figure 35, page 16). Do not remove the adjustment screw.
