the blower accessory.

OPERATING

FAN

This blower has three settings: ON, OFF, and

AUTO. In the ON position, the blower will oper-

ate constantly. In the OFF position, the blower

will not operate. In the AUTO position, the

blower will start when the thermostat senses a

sufficient increase in firebox temperature.
Note:

Your fireplace and thermostat blower

will not turn on and off at the same time. The

fireplace may run for several minutes before the

blower turns on. After the heater modulates to

the pilot position, the blower will continue to

run. The blower will shut off after the firebox

temperature decreases.
Note:

It is safe to operate fireplace with blower

turned off. However, the blower helps distribute

heated air from the fireplace.
