B.Connecting to the Appliance

WARNING

Wire 110V to electrical junction box.

Do NOT wire 110V to valve.

Do NOT wire 110V to wall switch.

•Incorrect wiring will damage millivolt valves.

•Incorrect wiring will override IPI safety lock- out and may cause explosion.

•This appliance may be used with a wall switch, wall mounted thermostat and/or a remote control.

•If using thermostat use one compatible with a millivolt gas valve system.

•Follow parameters for locating thermostat (see individ- ual thermostat instructions) to ensure proper operation of appliance.

•Use low resistance thermostat wire for wiring from igni- tion system to the wall switch and thermostat.

•Keep wire lengths short as possible by removing any excess wire length.

•Low voltage and 110 VAC voltage cannot be shared within the same wall box.

C. Intellifire Ignition System Wiring

This appliance requires a 110 VAC supply to the appliance junction box for operation. A wiring diagram is shown in Figure 10.2.

This appliance is equipped with an Intellifire control valve which operates on a 3 volt system.

This appliance is supplied with a battery pack and a 3 volt AC transformer, which requires the installation of the sup- plied junction box. It is highly recommended that the junc- tion box be installed at this time to avoid reconstruction.

The battery pack requires two D cell batteries (not in- cluded).

NOTE: Batteries cannot be placed in the battery pack while using the 3 volt AC transformer. The transformer must be unplugged if the battery pack is used or battery life will be reduced.

Wiring to the battery pack is left disconnected in order to conserve battery life. In the case of a loss of power, simply connect red and black wire leads to activate battery power (connect red to red, black to black). The fireplace can be used as necessary. Once power (110 VAC) is restored, disconnect red and black wire leads to extend battery life.

CAUTION

Battery polarity must be correct or module damage will occur.

Optional Accessories Requirements

Wiring for optional accessories should be done now to avoid reconstruction.

D. Wall Switch (Required)

A wall switch must be installed of this fireplace. This will allow the unit to operate if the power goes out (battery operation).

Position the wall switch in the desired position on the wall. An assembly of 18 ft of 20 AWG is provided with the appliance to connect the wall switch to the appliance. Instead of the supplied assembly, wire with a length of 25 ft or less and a gauge of 20 AWG through 14 AWG is acceptable. The wire needs a jacket with a temperature rating of 140oF (60oC) or higher. At the appliance connect the wire to the ON/OFF switch pigtails.
