OPERATION

This section will explain the function of each convenient control.

To access the controls, open the upper grill by pulling, near the top right hand side,

forward and down.

A. MAIN ON/OFF SWITCH

The ON/OFF SWITCH supplies power to all fireplace functions (Heater/Flame).

B. FLAME ACTION CONTROL

Turn the flame action control knob to adjust the flame speed to the desired level.

C. FLAME BRIGHTNESS CONTROL

Turn the flame brightness control knob to increase or decrease the brightness of the

flame and embers.

D. LED INDICATORS

E. MANUAL SELECTION SWITCH

To choose between flame effect setting, flame effect with low heat setting, and flame

effect with high heat setting.

F. HEATER THERMOSTAT CONTROL

To adjust the temperature to your individual requirements, turn the thermostat control

clockwise all the way to turn on the heater. When the room reached the desired

temperature, turn the thermostat knob counter clockwise until you hear a click. Leave in

this position to maintain the room temperature at this setting. For additional heat, turn

clockwise until you hear the click again and the heater will turn on.

NOTE:

The heater may emit a slight, harmless odor when first used. This odor is a normal

condition caused by initial heating of internal heater parts and will not occur again.

RESETTING THE TEMPERATURE CUTOFF SWITCH

This unit is equipped with a thermostat which controls the temperature of the room. It

does this by turning the heater on and off. The heater is protected with a safety device

to prevent overheating. Should the heater overheat, an automatic cut out will turn the

heater off and it will not come back on without being reset. It can be reset by switching

the main ON/OFF SWITCH to OFF and waiting 5 minutes before switching the unit back

on.

CAUTION

If you need to continuously reset the heater, unplug the unit and call your local dealer.

REMOTE CONTROL USAGE

The fireplace is supplied with a radio frequency remote control. This remote control has

a range of approximately 50 feet. (15.25m), it does not have to be pointed at the

fireplace and can pass through most obstacles (including walls).

Remote Control Initialization

This procedure is required every time there is a loss of

power to the remote control in the fireplace. (i.e. power

failure, breaker tripped, main power switch is turned off)

1. Ensure that power is supplied through main

service panel.

2. Locate manual controls (refer to OPERATION

section).

3. Activate main power switch, red indicator lights will

flash momentarily.

4. Press ON button located on the remote control

transmitter (FIGURE 1). This will synchronize the

remote control transmitter and receiver.

Remote Control Usage

The remote control operates the fireplace levels

sequentially. The level is increased every time the ON

button on the transmitter is pressed. The fireplace can

be turned off at any point by pressing the OFF button

on the remote control transmitter.

Level 1: The flame effect is turned on and the first red

indicator light flashes momentarily.

Level 2: The flame effect remains on, the heater is

activated to the low heat setting, and the first and

second red indicator lights flash momentarily.

Level 3: The flame effect remains on, the heater is set

to the high heat setting, and all three red indicators

flash momentarily.

MANUAL SELECTION SWITCH

Operates fireplace in the same matter as the remote

control transmitter. Pressing the right side of this switch

has the same effect as the button on the

remote control and the right side has the same effect as

the button of the remote control. Pressing once to

the left activates Level 1, twice activates Level 2, three

times activates Level 3. Pressing to the left side turns

the fireplace off.

WIRING DIAGRAM

If unit was operating prior to servicing allow at least 10 minutes for light bulbs and

heating element to cool off to avoid accidental burning of skin.

Disconnect power before attempting any maintenance or cleaning to reduce the risk of

electric shock or damage to persons.

Light bulbs need to be replaced when you notice a dark section of the flame or when the

clarity and detail of the log exterior disappears. There are two bulbs at the top of the

opening that illuminates the log set exterior and four bulbs under the log set which

generate the flames and embers.

It is a good idea to replace all of the light bulbs at one time if they are close to the end of

their rated life. Group replacement will reduce the number of times you need to open

the unit to replace the light bulbs.

TO REPLACE UPPER LIGHT BULBS

1. Remove the firebox trim by placing your hand on the grill section, grasping the

trim and pulling outwards releasing the retainer clips.

2. Remove the mounting screw in the center of the glass and remove the retainer

bracket.

3. Remove the glass by lifting up from the bottom.

CAUTION

Even though the glass is safety glass it may break if bumped, struck of dropped.

Care must be taken when handling the glass.

4. Locate upper bulbs inside the center of the firebox at the top.

5. Replace bulb(s) that require replacement, holding onto the light socket when

while unscrewing.

6. Reassemble in the reverse order as above.

UPPER BULB-Quantity 2 chandelier or candelabra bulbs with an E-12 (small)

socket base, 15 watt rating.

CAUTION DO NOT EXCEED 15 WATTS PER BULB
