When the wall mounted programmable thermostat is fitted –
First ensure that good batteries (3 x AA alkaline) are fitted in the wall thermostat, that the slide switch
behind the hinged bottom cover is set to ‘HEAT’, and that the temperature setting on the thermostat is
above the prevailing room temperature. Full details of the wall-mounted thermostat and programming
instructions are supplied with it.
• Turn the control on the heater fully anticlockwise to the ‘ON’ position and the fire will light at full heat.
There may be a strong smell the first time the logs are fired but this will soon disappear.
When the IRRC 300 portable remote thermostat is fitted –
First check that good batteries are fitted in the remote control. To fit batteries (two AAA alkaline), slide the
cover below the display in the direction of the arrow and pull it further in the same direction firmly until it
disengages. Ensure that the receiver has a valid 230 volt AC supply.
• Move the switch on the receiver control box (at the rear of the pedestal)to ‘REMOTE’. (See page 5,
RECEIVER SWITCH POSITIONS).
• Check the display on the remote control. If it reads ‘OFF’, aim the remote control toward the receiver and
press the centre button on the remote to switch it to ‘ON’.
When the display shows ‘ON’, the SET TEMP will be displayed below the ROOM TEMP. For the burner
to light, the SET TEMP must be higher than the ROOM TEMP. Raise the SET TEMP, if necessary, by
pressing the right hand button.
• Turn the PILOT control fully anticlockwise to the ‘ON’ position and the fire will light at full heat. There
may be a strong smell the first time the logs are fired but this will soon disappear.
• After ten minutes, set the HI-LO control to give the desired heat output.
• At this stage you may turn on the fan by rotating the fan switch in either direction. The switch gives three
speeds and has an ‘OFF’ position. NOTE. The fan is also controlled by an internal switch which will not
permit it to start until the fire is hot (about ten minutes from cold on high fire) and will keep it running for
some time after the fire goes out.
PROGRAMMING THE REMOTE CONTROL
The control can be programmed to operate the heater at a desired later time. The controls for this are under
the sliding cover below the display. Programming instructions are in the instruction sheet supplied with the
remote control.
RMT MODELS:-
First check that the power switch at the wall is ‘ON’ and that the three position switch on the receiver
control box (at the rear of the pedestal) is in the ‘REMOTE’ position. (See page 5, RECEIVER SWITCH
POSITIONS). In the event of a power failure, move the switch to ‘ON’; the heater will then operate on
‘LOW’.
• To avoid the risk of backburning, do not attempt to re-light the fire less than three minutes after it has been
extinguished.
• Push down and turn the control knob (at the top of the heater) anticlockwise to the ‘PILOT’ position. Push
and hold down the control knob firmly. The battery igniter will generate a continuous spark across the
terminals at the pilot light. It may be necessary to hold the control knob down for some time before the
pilot ignites if there is air in the pilot light pipeline. If there is no spark when the control knob is held down
in the ‘PILOT’ position, check the battery in the ignition module. It is mounted under the cover of the small
black plastic housing mounted on the back of the heater. One AA alkaline cell is required.
• Keep holding the control knob down for 15 seconds after the pilot ignites. Release the pressure on the
control knob – the pilot should remain alight when the knob rises.
• Turn the control knob fully anticlockwise to the ‘ON’ position. Note that the main burner will not light until
at least thirty seconds after the pilot is lit.
• Check that good batteries are fitted in the remote control. To fit batteries (two AAA alkaline), slide the
cover below the display in the direction of the arrow and pull it firmly further in the same direction until it
disengages.
