INTRODUCTION
The remote control system can be operated thermostatically
or manually from the transmitter. The system operates on
radio frequencies (RF) within a 20 foot range. It can be
used with Standing Pilot systems only.
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 battery
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 & 10.
INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS
NOTE: Installation of this kit MUST be done by a qualifi ed
service technician.
This remote control kit is tested and safe when installed in
accordance with this installation manual.
It is the responsibility of the installer to read all instructions
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: A manometer MUST be used to set the manifold
pressure on the gas valve.
WARNING
EXPLOSION RISK!
• Incorrect setting on regulator tower may
cause delayed ignition.
• The regulator tower is preset for NG.
LP installation will require resetting the tower.
NOTE: The factory installed junction box in the gas fi replace
must be wired with 110 VAC before installing this kit. See
