! Do not connect 120 VAC to the gas control valve or wiring of this unit.
1 Expose the back of the on/off switch (on inserts it is on the upper right corner of the surround panels,
on stoves it is on the upper left corner of the rear panel). Remove the green jumper wire and attach
the thermostat wire to the back of the on/off switch (see the illustration below).

2 On stoves, route the thermostat wire through the gas inlet hole. For inserts, run the thermostat wire
behind the surround panels. Pull through all the slack (you may wish to wrap the wire in electrical
tape to prevent damage to the wire). Determine a location for the thermostat that is within range of
the 50' length of thermostat wire. It should be centralized in the room and away from the heater.
The wire may be routed externally on the wall or behind the wall (preferred).
3 Cut the thermostat wire so there is approximately 6" of slack (NOTE: Do not splice thermostat wires
together–this leads to too much electrical resistance). Expose 1/2" off each wire of the thermostat
wire. Attach the exposed wire to the clips on the back of the thermostat using a screwdriver.
Run the thermostat
wire through the
wall (cut off
excess wire,
leaving 6" of slack)
Expose 1/2" of
wire and attach
to the two
connections on
the back of the
thermostat (use a
screwdriver).
Orientation does
not matter.
