mum speed and the Accent Light may turn on.

LOW BATTERY POWER DETECTION
1. Transmitter Batteries: The life span of the remote control transmitter batteries depends
on various factors: quality of the batteries used, the number of ignitions of the appliance,
the number of changes to the room thermostat set point, etc. When the Transmitter bat-
teries are low, a Battery Icon will appear on the LCD display of the Transmitter before all
battery power is lost. When the batteries are replaced, this icon will disappear.
2. Wall Receiver Batteries: The life span of the wall receiver batteries depend on the quality of the batteries used and
how long the batteries have been installed in the wall receiver. These batteries are only utilized during power outages.
Replace these batteries every heating season even if you have not experienced any power outages. Batteries drain
slowly even when not in use. This is a normal characteristic of all batteries.
OPERATING DURING POWER OUTAGES
This electronic ignition system utilizes the supplied 110VAC power when it is available for all functions of this system. If
the AC power is interrupted during a power outage, this system utilizes the batteries (installed in the Wall Receiver) as
back-up batteries. During the power outage, the appliance's burners will function. In addition, Flame Height adjustment
and Secondary Burner ON/OFF functions will be available. The Fan and Accent Light, which are wholly dependent on
110VAC power, will not function.
This appliance is designed and tested to be operated during power outages. The overall efficiency of this appliance will be
reduced by approximately 5% when the blower function is disabled during the power outage period.
