OPERATING FIREPLACE
Continued
Note: Do not leave the hand-held remote in
the AUTO mode close to the fireplace. The
radiant heat from the fireplace will turn off
the fireplace. Ideally, place the hand-held
remote in the center of the room facing
towards the fireplace.
Note: Do not hold the hand-held remote for
a long time. Body temperature will affect
its operation in the AUTO mode.
Safety Features
When away from home for an extended
period of time or as a child safety feature to
prevent accidental ignition of the fireplace,
the receiver ON/OFF/REMOTE switch
should be in the OFF position.
Auto Shutoff Feature
1. If the average room temperature reaches
a range of 82° F (28° C), the hand-held
remote control will perform a safety
override and shut the fireplace off. This
feature is not available in the MANU
mode.
2. The receiver continuously receives
signals from the hand-held remote
to control the room temperature. If
the hand-held remote is misplaced,
obstructed or for any reason cannot
transmit to the receiver, the receiver will
shut off the fireplace. This will occur in 8
or more minutes depending upon loca-
tion of remoter transmitter and strength
of batteries.

Key Pad Lock Feature
This feature allows the user to lock/unlock
the keypad on the hand-held remote in
the MANU or AUTO mode to prevent inad-
vertent operation (i.e. children operating
the hand-held remote control, etc.). The
keypad is locked in either on or off. Press
the POWER and LOCK buttons together to
turn the unit on or off.
OpTIONAL BLOWER
OpERATION
Locate the blower switch by opening lower
louver on fireplace. Blower switch is lo-
cated at lower right inside louver door.
The GA3700T Series thermostat-controlled
blower has a variable speed control with
an ON/OFF switch. The blower will start
when the thermostat senses a sufficient
increase in firebox temperature. The
GA3700 series variable speed blower also
has an ON/OFF switch built into the vari-
able speed control.
Note for GA3700T Series Only: If you are
using GA3700T blower, your fireplace and
blower will not turn on and off at the same
time. The fireplace may run for several
minutes before the blower turns on. After
the heater modulates to the pilot position,
the blower will continue to run. The blower
will shut off after the firebox temperature
decreases.
Note: It is safe to operate fireplace with
blower turned off. However, the blower
helps distribute heated air from the fire-
place.
Follow installation instructions included
with the blower accessory.
