NOTE: DIAGRAMS & ILLUSTRATIONS NOT TO SCALE.
Do not use these appliances if any part has
been under water. Immediately call a qualified,
professional service technician to inspect the
appliance and to replace any parts of the
control system and any gas control which
have been under water.
Ne pas se servir de cet appareil s'il a été plongé
dans l'eau, complètement ou en partie. Appeler
un technicien qualifié pour inspecter l'appareil et
remplacer toute partie du système de contrôle et
toute commande qui ont été plongés dans l'leau.
Test gage connections are provided on the
front of the millivolt gas control valve (identi-
fied OUT for the manifold side and IN for inlet
pressure. A ¹⁄₈" NPT test gage connection is
provided on the electronic gas control valve
adjacent to the outlet to the main burner.
Minimum inlet gas pressure to these appliances
is 5.0 inches water column (1.24 kPa) for natural
gas and 11 inches water column (2.74 kPa) for
propane for the purpose of input adjustment.
Maximum inlet gas supply pressure to these appli-
ances is 10.5 inches water column (2.61 kPa) for
natural gas and 13.0 inches water column (3.23 kPa)
for propane.
The appliance must be isolated from the gas
supply piping system (by closing its individual
manual shut-off valve) during any pressure test-
ing of the gas supply piping system at test
pressures equal to or less than ¹⁄₂ psig (3.5 kPa).
The appliance and its individual shut-off valve must
be disconnected from the gas supply piping system
during any pressure testing of that system at pres-
sures in excess of ¹⁄₂ psig (3.5 kPa).
These appliances must not be connected to a
chimney or flue serving a separate solid fuel
burning appliance.
Any safety guard or screen removed for ser-
vicing the appliance must be replaced prior to
operating the appliance.
Carbon Monoxide Poisoning: Early signs of
carbon monoxide poisoning are similar to
the flu with headaches, dizziness and/or nau-
sea. If you have these signs, obtain fresh air
immediately. Turn off the gas supply to the
appliance and have it serviced by a qualified
professional, as it may not be operating
correctly.
Operation of millivolt and electronic gas con-
trol systems are different. Before lighting
and operating your appliance determine if
you have a millivolt or electronic appliance.
Refer to Figure 1
for access to the gas
control valve. Millivolt appliances will be
fitted with the gas control valve shown in
Figure 2 on page 4
.
Appliances with electronic systems will be
fitted with the electronic valve shown in
Figure
3 on page 4
. Familiarize yourself with the gas
control valve that your appliance uses.
OPERATION AND CARE OF YOUR
APPLIANCE
Appliance operation may be controlled by the
following means: an optional unit-mounted
ON/OFF control switch (Millivolt appliances
only), an optional wall-mounted ON/OFF con-
trol switch or an optional remote control. The
unit-mounted ON/OFF control switch may be
mounted in the bracket below the gas valve
(see Figure 2 on page 4)
.
Gas Controls/Control Compartment Access
The gas controls can be found behind the control
compartment access panel. To open the control
compartment access panel, actuate the spring
loaded magnetic catches securing the panel, by
gently depressing the outer top corners of the
panel until the catches "pop" the door free,
allowing it to swing out and down to open.
To ease door closure, depress the catches to
place them in their retracted position, then
close the door.
Millivolt appliances are fitted with the gas
control valve shown in
Figure 2 on page 4
.
On these systems, the piezo ignitor, Hi/Lo flame
adjustment knob, and pilot and main gas ON/
OFF control knob are located on gas valve.

To light millivolt appliances refer to the de-
tailed lighting instructions found on
page 12
(English) and page 13
(French). Millivolt ap-
pliance lighting instructions may also be
found on the pull out lighting instruction
labels attached to the gas control valve.
Millivolt appliances may be fitted with an op-
tional ON/OFF rocker switch which is used to
control the main burner operation. The op-
tional ON/OFF rocker switch should be in-
stalled in one of the two rectangular slots in the
piezo igniter mounting bracket below the gas
valve. Once the pilot is lit, the ON/OFF rocker
switch will control the main burner operation.
To operate: Toggle the switch between its ON
and OFF positions.
If your millivolt appliance is equipped with an
optional wall-mounted ON/OFF switch or re-
mote control kit and the pilot is lit, the appli-
ance main burner may be turned on and off
with the wall switch or remote control.
