manual Limit Switch

(manually-reset blocked flue safety switch)

This appliance is equipped with a manually-

reset blocked flue safety switch. Refer to

Figure 25 for its location. If during appliance

operation, the flame goes out (independently of

the burner on/off wall switch), it may be due to

the operation of this safety limit switch. First

allow the appliance to cool. Then reset the

safety switch by pushing the red reset button

on the back of the switch.

To access the safety limit switch reset button,

remove the screen rod and screen from the right

side of the fireplace. Unscrew two screws and

remove the limit switch with low voltage wires

attached. Push the reset button, then reinstall

the limit switch. Reinstall the screen and rod. At

this time turn the electronic appliance back on.

The appliance should then relight and remain

lit. If this does not occur, turn off the appli-

ance and call a qualified service technician.

The pilot flame should be steady, not lifting

or floating. Flame should be blue in color with

traces of orange at the outer edge.
The top 3/8" (9 mm) at the pilot generator

(thermopile) should be engulfed in the pilot

flame. The flame should project 1" (25 mm)

beyond the hood at all three ports (Figure 26).
Replace logs if removed for pilot inspection.
To light the burner; turn “ON” the remote wall

switch and rotate the gas valve control knob

counterclockwise to the “ON” position (“ON”

will be to the left hand side of the valve).

Step 9. Check Appliance Operation

With the gas line installed, run initial system

checkout before closing up the front of the unit.

Follow the pilot lighting instructions provided in

the Care and Operation Instructions. The piezo

Igniter is located in the control compartment

(see Figure 15).

NOTE: Instructions are also found on the pull

out labels attached to the gas control valve.

The valve is shown in Figure 24.

When first lighting the appliance, it will take

a few minutes for the line to purge itself of

air. Once purging is complete, the pilot and

burner will light and operate as indicated in

the instruction manual.

Subsequent lightings of the appliance will not

require such purging. Inspect the pilot flame

(remove logs, if necessary, handling carefully).
