Power Outage

Fireplaces with a screen heat barrier and no other optional features (lights, power vent, heat control system, Wi-Fi) may be used
with 4 AA batteries in the receiver in addition to the AC Adapter. If the batteries are used instead of the AC Adapter, the fireplace can
operate in the event of a power outage to the building. Batteries must be replaced annually.
