NOTICE: You must light the pilot before using the
hand-held remote control unit. See

tions, page 24.

Turn control knob to ON position. Adjust flame adjust-
ment knob anywhere between HI and LO. Slide the selec-
tor switch to the REMOTE position (see Figure 51).

burner on and off with the hand-held remote control unit.
IMPORTANT: Do not leave the selector switch in the REMOTE

enheit (28 degrees Centigrade), the hand-held remote con-
trol will perform a safety override and shut the fireplace
off. This feature is not available in the MANU mode.

rately (see Accessories, page 36). Follow instructions included
