Replacing batteries

WARNING
Do not attempt to access the batteries
while the fi replace is hot! Let the fi replace
cool fi rst before touching it!

Do not use a screwdriver or other metallic
object to remove the batteries from the

Low battery signals:
• Handset: battery icon on display displays one lit bar.
• Holder: rapid series of beeps during use and opera-
tion.
BEFORE changing the batteries, turn the fi replace off
(including pilot).
The fi replace uses four AA 1.5 V alkaline batteries
in a separate battery holder located next to the wall
switch and two AAA 1.5 V alkaline batteries in its
handset. Batteries should last one to two seasons,
depending on usage. Removing the batteries during
the off -season will extend battery life.
To access the battery holder, remove the magnetic
cover on the remote wall switch (no tools required)
and withdraw the battery holder straight out from
the wall (it is attached to the plate).
To replace the batteries:
1. Gently pull the battery holder out of the wall
switch panel.
2. Replace the batteries with 4 AA 1.5V alkaline bat-
teries.
3. Replace the battery holder in the wall switch,
securing it with the magnetic cover.
Caution
Do not put batteries in the receiver as leaking
acid could damage its circuit board.
