Use the Regency Remote Control Kit approved for this unit. Use of other systems may void your warranty.

The remote control kit comes with a hand held transmitter, a receiver and a wall mounting plate.

2)Connect the wires as per the wiring dia- gram above.

CAUTION

Do not connect the millivolt

remote control wires to the 120V wires.

3)Install 3 AAA alkaline batteries in transmitter and 4 AA alkaline batteries in the receiver. Install the receiver and its cover in the wall. Switch the remote receiver to "remote" mode. The remote control is now ready for operation.

FINAL CHECK

Before leaving this unit with the customer, the installer must ensure that the appliance is firing correctly. This includes:

1)Clocking the appliance to ensure the cor- rect firing rate (rate noted on label) at 15 minutes.

2)If required, adjusting the primary air to ensure that the flame does not carbon. First allow the unit to burn for 15 min. to stabilize.

3)Check for proper draft.

CAUTION

Any alteration to the product that causes sooting or carboning that results in damage to the exterior facia is not the responsibility of the manufacturer.

This heater does not require a 120V A.C. supply for operation. In case of a power failure, the burner switch and the optional remote control/thermostat will continue to op- erate. However, a 120V A.C. power supply is needed for the fan/blower operation.
