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,
pages 18 and 19.
2. Set manual ignition bypass switch on control panel to ON
position (manual ignition position). See Figure 39.
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.

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.
