INTRODUCTION
The remote control system can be operated thermostati-
cally or manually from the transmitter. The system oper-
ates on radio frequencies (RF) within a 20 foot range. Can
be used with DSI, IPI or Standing Pilot systems.
This remote control kit has a hand held transmitter that
can be used as a remote on/off or as a thermostat. The
Transmitter display shows the current room temperature,
target temperature, timer setting, on/off status, low bat-
tery indicator, current time, burner/valve operation and
fan operation. Electrical ratings for the receiver are: 110
VAC, 60 Hz, 6 W.
If pertinent, see additional fi replace wiring diagrams on
pages 9 to 11.

INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS

This remote control kit is tested and safe when installed
in accordance with this installation manual.
Installation of this kit MUST be done by a qualifi ed
service technician.
NOTE: A manometer MUST be used to set the
manifold pressure on the gas valve.
It is the responsibility of the installer to read all instruc-
tions before starting installation and to follow these
instructions carefully during installation. Modifi cation of
the remote control system or any of its components will
void the warranty and may cause a fi re hazard.
NOTE: The factory installed junction box in the gas
fi replace must be wired with 110 VAC before install-
ing this kit. See Installation Instructions section.
CAUTION: All wiring should be done by a qualifi ed
electrician and shall be in compliance with local codes
and with the National Electric Code ANSI/NFPA No. 70-
current (in the United States), or with the current CSA
C22.1 Canadian Electric Code (in Canada).

WARNING: CHANGES OR MODIFICATIONS TO
THIS UNIT NOT EXPRESSLY APPROVED BY
THE PARTY RESPONSIBLE FOR COMPLIANCE
COULD VOID THE USER'S AUTHORITY TO OPER-
ATE THE EQUIPMENT.
NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found
to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device,
pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are
designed to provide reasonable protection against harm-
ful interference in a residential installation. This equip-
ment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with
the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular installation. If
this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio
or television reception, which can be determined by turn-
ing the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged
to try to correct the interference by one or more of the
following measures:
- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
- Increase the separation between the equipment and
receiver.
- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit dif-
ferent from that to which the receiver is connected.
- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio TV techni-
cian for help.
Canadian Equipment Requirements
This digital apparatus does not exceed the (Class A/Class
B)* limits for radio noise emissions from digital appara-
tus set out in the Radio Interference Regulations of the
Canadian Department of Communications. Le present
appareil numerique n'emet pas de bruits radioelectriques
depassant les limites applicables aux appareils nume-
riques (de la class A/de la class B)* prescrites dans le
Reglement sur le brouillage radioelectrique edicte par le
ministere des Communications du Canada.
This device complies with RSS-210 of Industry and Sci-
ence Canada. Operation is subject to the following two
conditions: (1) this device may not cause interference,
and (2) this device must accept any interference, includ-
ing interference that may cause undesired operation of
the device.
