Remote Control Functions
NOTE: You will hear an audible beep once every time a remote-control button is pressed, signaling that the command has been
received. If you do not hear the beep, press the button again.
Locate the four function buttons on the remote control:
1. On/Off Button: This button turns the fireplace on or off. When this button is pressed, and the system is off, the pilot will
ignite. After pilot ignition, the pilot will light the main burners. Refer to IPI and CPI Modes in this manual for pilot
ignition.
2. Thermostat Button: This button will allow the selection of three modes: Manual, Normal Thermostat, and Smart
Thermostat.
a. Manual (Off): In this mode, the fireplace can be turned on, regardless of the room temperature. The actual room
temperature has no effect in this mode. All other functions such as fan speed control, flame height control,
secondary burner on/off control and accent light intensity controls are manually controlled.
WARNING: Do not leave this appliance burning and unattended for long periods in the manual(of f) mode.
Leaving the appliance burning in manual (off) mode for long periods can lead to overheating of the living
space which can negatively affect plants, animals, infants an d vulnerable people.
Note: In Manual Mode, t he fireplace will automatically shut off after 12 hours of continuous use. In Normal
Thermostat and Smart Thermostat modes, if the fireplace does not receive a prompt from the remote -
control transmitter for 60 mi nutes, the fireplace will automatically shut off. This can occur if the remote
control is moved to another room or if the remote batteries are very weak.
b. Normal Thermostat (On): In this mode, the fireplace will turn
itself on and off, depending on the temperature you set.
When you set the fireplace thermostat, the fireplace will stay
functioning until the room temperature increases 1
the set thermostat temperature. To increase the thermostat
temperature, press the up button until the desired
temperature is displayed in the thermostat temperature window. The fan will turn on five minutes after fireplace
startup and will turn off 12-1/2 minutes after the flames turn off, in this mode. The flame height can be adjusted
while the fireplace is functioning, fan speed can be adjusted after five minutes of startup. Rear burner can be turned
on or off at any time after startup. The accent light can be adjusted any time after startup.
c. Smart Thermostat (Smart): In this mode, room temperature is maintained and flame height adjusts automatically to
provide continual, efficient heat. All other functions of the normal thermostat mode, except the flame height
adjustment, are allowed. Manual flame height adjustment is not allowed in this mode. The Smart Thermostat
function adjusts the flame height in accordance to the difference between the set point temperature and the actual
room temperature. As the room temperature gets closer to the set point temperature, the Smart Thermostat
automatically modulates the flame down.
3. Up/Down Button: This button is used to increase or decrease the thermostat temperature, flame height, fan speed, and
accent light intensity.
4. Mode Selection Button: This button is used to toggle between the various function icons: flame height, fan speed,
accent light.
