INSTALLATION
WARNING: Do not wire re-
mote wall switch to main power
supply (Standard 120v household
current).
WALL SWITCH
INSTALLATION
Since the VDVF36 series models use a
valve that operates on millivolt current gen-
erated by the pilot, a wall switch may be
used to activate the gas control valve with-
out the use of normal household electricity.
1. To remove the louvers, simultaneously
pull both top end spring latches towards
the center of the appliance until they
are disengaged from locating holes.
Repeat for bottom end spring latches
and pull outward. Reverse the proce-
dure to install louvers back onto the
appliance (see Figure 32).
2. Connect the 18 ga. wires from wall
switch to the gas control valve and
microswitch, as shown in Figure 33.
