OPTIONAL HAND-HELD
REMOTE OPERATION
Note: All remote control accessories must be
purchased separately (see Accessories, pages
29). Follow instructions included with the re-
mote control.
NOTICE: You must light the pilot
before using the hand-held re-
mote control unit. See Lighting
Instructions on page 19.
After lighting, let pilot flame burn for about
one minute. Turn control knob to ON posi-
tion. Adjust flame adjustment knob anywhere
between HI and LO. Slide the selector switch
to the REMOTE position (see Figure 30).
Note: The burner may light if hand-held
remote was on when selector switch was last
turned off. You can now turn the burner on and
off with the hand-held remote control unit.
IMPORTANT:
Do not leave the selector switch
in the REMOTE or ON position when the pilot
is not lit. This will drain the battery.
