MANUAL LIGHTING
INSTRUCTIONS FOR
ELECTRICAL POWER OUTAGE
WARNING: You must operate this heater with the
fireplace screen in place. Make sure fireplace screen
is in place before running heater.
NOTICE: During initial operation of new heater, burning
logs will give off a paper-burning smell. Open damper or
window to vent smell. This will only last a few hours.
Because this fireplace has an electronic ignition system, in the
event there is a loss of power, it will be necessary to manually
light the pilot with the piezo ignitor. After the pilot is lit, the
main burner will light automatically.
1. Follow steps 1 through 3 under Normal Lighting Instructions,
page 23.
2. Set manual ignition bypass switch on control panel to ON
position (manual ignition position). See Figure 50.
3. The pilot is attached to the rear of the front burner. You
will be able to see the pilot and spark electrode without
removing the screen or logs.
4. Place the magnetic manual override handle, provided with
this unit, on the end of the gas valve stem (see Figure 50).
5. Turn the override handle fully counterclockwise to
the PILOT position. The handle will not stop but will begin
to slip when you have fully turned to the PILOT position.
6. While holding the valve handle in the PILOT position, press
and release piezo ignitor button (see Figure 50). This will light
the pilot. If needed, keep pressing ignitor button until pilot lights.
7. When pilot flame is lit, hold manual override handle until ther-
mocouple heats (approximately 5 to 15 seconds). If pilot goes
out, repeat process. If several attempts to light the pilot fail,
contact a qualified service person or gas supplier for repairs.
8. When thermocouple is heated, release override handle. The
main burner will immediately light on high flame. Adjust
flame size by turning override handle.

B. Using Hand-Held Wireless Remote Control
1. Set manual ignition bypass switch on control panel to OFF
position (automatic ignition position).
2. Wait five (5) minutes to clear out any gas. Smell for gas
around heater and near floor. If you smell gas, STOP! Fol-
low “B” in the safety information on warnings plate. If you
don’t smell gas, go to the next step.
3. Point remote control toward the lower front of fireplace
and push both buttons at the same time. Hold for 6 sec-
onds. The gas valve will open and electronic ignition will
begin sparking to light the pilot.
Note:
You will be able to
hear a clicking sound during this process. LED on wall
switch will light.
Note:
You may be running this heater for the first time
after connecting to gas supply or at the start of your heat-
ing season. If so, the ON button may need to be pressed
again. This will allow air to bleed from gas system. If sev-
eral attempts to light pilot fail, contact a qualified service
person or gas supplier for repairs. Until repairs are made,
light and operate manually (see Manual Lighting Instruc-
tions for Electrical Power Outage).
4. When pilot flame is lit, the thermocouple is heated by the
flame. When thermocouple becomes hot (5 to 15 seconds),
main burner will automatically light on high flame.
5. To lower flame, point remote control toward lower front of
fireplace and push HI/LO button once.
Note:
This fireplace does not have a pilot-only mode.
