CAUTION - Indicates a hazardous situation which, if notavoided,couldresultinminorormoderateinjury.

NOTICE-Addressespracticesnotrelatedtopersonalinjury.

WARNINGWhen used without adequate combustion and ventilation air, appliance may give off CARBON MONOXIDE, an odorless, poisonous gas.

Do not install appliance until all necessary provisions are made for combustion and ventilation air. Consult the written instructions provided with the appliance for information concerning combustion and ventilation air. In the absence of instructions, refer to the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, Air for Combustion and Ventilation, or applicable local codes.

This appliance is equipped with a PILOT LIGHT SAFETY SYS-TEM designed to turn off the appliance if not enough fresh air is available.

DO NOT TAMPER WITH PILOT LIGHT SAFETY SYSTEM!

If fireplace shuts off, do not relight until you provide fresh air.If fireplace keeps shutting off, have it serviced. Keep burner and control compartment clean. See installation and operating instructions accompanying heater.

CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING MAY LEAD TO DEATH.

Early signs of carbon monoxide poisoning resemble the flu, with headache, dizziness and/or nausea. If you have these signs, fireplace may not be working properly. Get fresh air at once! Have fireplace serviced. Some people — pregnant women, persons with heart or lung disease, anemia, those under the influence of alcohol , those at high altitudes — are more affected by carbon monoxide than others.The pilot light safety system senses the depletion of oxygen at its location. If this fireplace is installed in a structure having a high vertical dimension, the possibility exists that the oxygen supply at the higher levels will be less than that at the fireplace. In this type of application, a fan to circulate the structure air will minimize this effect. The use of this fan will also improve the comfort level in the structure. When a fan is used to circulate air, it should be located so that the air flow is not directed at the burner.

DANGERTheinstallerof thisproduct isresponsiblefor theverifyingthecorrectpositionoftheairshutterandadjustingitifrequired.Ifnotadjustedtotheproperopening,afire,explosion,orproductionofcarbonmonoxidemayresultcausingpropertydamage,personalinjuryorlossoflife.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

34380-0-0914 Page 11

SAFETY INFORMATION FOR USERS OF LP-GASPropane (LP-Gas) is a flammable gas which can cause fires and explosions. In its natural state, propane is odorless and colorless. You may not know all the following safety precautions which can protect both you and your family from an accident. Read them carefully now, then review them point by point with the members of your household. Someday when there may not be a minute to lose, everyone’s safety will depend on knowing exactly what to do. If, after reading the following information, you feel you still need more information, please contact your gas supplier.

LP-GAS WARNING ODOR

If a gas leak happens, you should be able to smell the gas because of the odorant put in the LP-Gas.

That's your signal to go into immediate action!

REMOTE RECEIVER

Figure 55The remote receiver operates on 4AA-size 1.5Vbatteries. It isrecommended thatALKALINE batteries be used for longer bat-terylifeandmaximummicroprocessorperformance.IMPORTANT:Neworfullychargedbatteriesareessentialforproperoperationoftheremotereceiver.

Theremotereceiverhousesthemicroprocessorthatrespondstocommandsfromthetransmittertocontrolsystemoperation.Theremote receiver has a 3-position slide switch for selecting theMODEofoperation:ON/REMOTE/OFF

• WiththeslideswitchintheONposition(towardtheLEARNbutton), the system will remain on until the slide switch isplacedintheOFForREMOTEposition.

• WiththeslideswitchintheREMOTEposition(centered),thesystemwillonlyoperateiftheremotereceiverreceivescom-mands from the transmitter.

• With the slide switch in the OFF position (away from theLEARNbutton),thesystemisoff.

• It is suggested that the slide switch be placed in the off position if you will be away from your home for an ex-tended period of time. If the remote receiver is mounted out of children’s reach, placing the slide switch in the OFF position also functions as a safety “lock-out” by both turning the system off and rendering the remote re-ceiver inoperative.
