OPERATING FIREPLACE

Continued

Note:

Do not hold the hand-held remote for

a long time. Body temperature will affect its

operation in the AUTO mode.
Safety Features

When away from home for an extended period

of time or as a child safety feature to prevent

accidental ignition of the fireplace, the receiver

ON/OFF/REMOTE switch should be in the

OFF position.
Auto Shutoff Feature

1. If the average room temperature exceeds 82

degrees Fahrenheit (28 degrees Centigrade),

the hand-held remote control will perform a

safety override and shut the fireplace off. This

feature is not available in the MANU mode.

2. The receiver continuously receives signals

from the hand-held remote to control the

room temperature. If the hand-held remote

is misplaced, obstructed, or for any reason

cannot transmit to the receiver, the receiver

will shut off the fireplace after 8 minutes.

Key Pad Lock Feature

This feature allows the user to lock/unlock

the keypad on the hand-held remote in the

MANU or AUTO mode to prevent inadvertent

operation (i.e. children operating the hand-held

remote control, etc.). The keypad is locked in

either on or off. Press the POWER and LOCK

buttons together to turn the unit on or off.

OPTIONAL GWMT1 WALL

MOUNTED THERMOSTAT

Make sure the heater switch is on AUTO and set

the temperature adjustment on wall thermostat

to the desired setting. The thermostat has been

electronically calibrated at the factory and

requires no adjustment or leveling.

Upon installation, the thermostat must be al-

lowed to stabilize at room temperature for a

minimum of 30 minutes for proper operation.

See installation instructions on page 19.

INSPECTING BURNERS

Check pilot flame pattern and burner flame pat-

terns often.

PILOT FLAME PATTERN

Figure 43 shows a correct pilot flame pattern.

Figure 44 shows an incorrect pilot flame pattern.

The incorrect pilot flame is not touching the ther-

mocouple. This will cause the thermocouple to

cool. When the thermocouple cools, the fireplace

will shut down.
If pilot flame pattern is incorrect, as shown in

Figure 44
• turn fireplace off (see To Turn Off Gas to Appli-

ance, page 23)

• see Troubleshooting, page 28
Note:

The pilot flame on natural gas units will

have a slight curve, but flame should be blue and

have no yellow or orange color.

OPTIONAL GWMS2 WALL

MOUNTED SWITCH

Make sure the heater switch is on AUTO. This wall

switch works just like the conventional light switch.

Flip the switch up for on and down for off.
Note:

Make sure that this switch is not in a posi-

tion to be mistaken for a light switch. This may

result in the fireplace being inadvertently turned

on without the proper precautions being taken.

See installation instructions on page 19.
