AUTOMATIC  TURN  DOWN 
 
6 Hour  no Motor  Movement 

•   Manual Model/Temperature/Timer  Mode: The 

valve  will turn  to pilot flame  if there  is no change 
in flame  height  for  a 6 hour  period.  In 
Temperature/Timer  Mode  if the  ambient  room 
temperature  changes, the  flame  height  will adjust 
automatically  to maintain  set temperature,  and 
the fire  will  continue  to function  normally.  The 
valve  will turn  to pilot flame  if the  set temperature 
and  the ambient  room  temperature  remain  the 
same over  a 6 hour  period. 

 
Receiver Overheating 

•  Valve  turns to pilot flame  if the temperature  in the 

receiver  is higher  than  140

o

F  (60°C).  The  main 

burner  comes back on  only when  the  temperature 
is below  140°F  (60°C). 

 

AUTOMATIC  SHUT  OFF 
 
Low Battery  Receiver 

•   With low battery power  in the receiver  the system 

shuts off  the fire  completely. This  will not happen 
if the  power  supply is interrupted. 

 

Five Day  Shut Off 

•   The  system shuts off  the fire completely if there is 

no  change  in flame  height  for  5 days. 

 
NOTE:  Before  the next ignition  there  is a 2  minute  

 

   

waiting  period.

Cleaning 
 

 

WARNING:  DO NOT  CLEAN  THE  UNIT  WHEN  HOT.   

 

The  unit  should  receive  regular  cleaning  on,  under,  
and  around  the  stove  to  prevent  the  buildup  of  dust 
and  lint.  The  exterior  surfaces  of  the  unit  can  be 
cleaned  using  soap,  water,  and  a  soft  cloth.  Do  not 
use  abrasive  or  chemical  cleaners  and  take care  not 
to scratch the  glass or  enamel  finish  (if  so equipped) 
when  cleaning  the  unit.  The  use  of  chemical  wax  
based  cleaners  or  polishes  are  not  recommended 
due  to  the  potential  for  discoloration  of  the  castings, 
or  enamel  when  the  residue  of  the  cleaners  or 
polishes  is  exposed  to  heat.  Excessive  buildup  of 
dust,  spider  webs,  or  room  air  contamination  may 
cause odors  when  the stove  is hot.  

 
Monthly (or as needed):

 

 

Glass Cleaning 

As  fuel  gas  may  contain  some  impurities;  it  will  be 
necessary  to  clean  the  inside  of  the  glass 
occasionally.  Do 

not  use 

abrasive 

cleaners.  

Scratching  the  glass  will  weaken  the  integrity  of  the 
glass. 

Do  not  clean the glass  when hot!

  Allow  the 

glass to cool  and  apply  a  mild  window  cleaning  fluid.
