OPTIONAL REMOTE OPERATION
Note: All remote control accessories must be purchased sepa-
rately (see Accessories, page 38). Follow instructions included
with the remote control.
Thermostat Control Operation
(Optional GHRCTA Series Only) The thermostat control set-
ting on the remote control unit can be set to any comfort level
between WARMER and COOLER. The burners will turn on
and off automatically to maintain the comfort level you select.
The ideal comfort setting will vary by household depending
upon the amount of space to be heated, the output of the central
heating system, etc.
For wall thermostat operation, follow instruction supplied with
thermostat accessory GWMT1. For wall switch operation follow
instructions supplied with GWMS2.
NOTICE: You must light the pilot before using the
hand-held remote control unit. See Lighting Instruc-
tions on page 20.
1. After lighting, let pilot flame burn for about one minute.
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. Note: The burners
may light if hand-held remote ON button was on when se-
lector switch was last turned off. You can now turn the burn-
ers on and off with the hand-held remote control unit.
IMPORTANT : Do not leave the selector switch in the RE-
MOTE position when the pilot is not lit. This will drain the
battery.
IMPORTANT: Be sure to press the ON/OFF buttons on the
hand-held remote control unit for up to 3 seconds to assure
proper operation.

• In the AUTO mode, the thermostat in the hand-held re-
mote unit controls the room temperature. To increase the
room temperature, press the top arrow of the TEMP but-
ton. To lower the room temperature, press the bottom ar-
row of the TEMP button. At higher settings the heater
will run longer.
IMPORTANT: This remote control has been specially en-
gineered to take an air temperature sample every 5.5 min-
utes in the auto mode. It will not respond immediately to
the temperature setting being turned up or down.
IMPORTANT: The hand-held remote control unit must
be near the heater. Do not keep the hand-held remote
control unit too close to the heater. The thermostat on
the hand-held remote control unit will heat up too quickly
and turn the heater off.
3. To turn the burner off, press the AUTO/ON/OFF button un-
til OFF lights. The pilot will remain lit.
IMPORTANT: To turn the pilot off, manually turn the con-
trol knob on the heater to the OFF position.
