Understanding the Basic Operation

Residential H36PV fireplace

To operate the fireplace, Montigo has supplied and installed 

twenty feet of low voltage wire to this electrical control panel . 

Connect the two wire harness to a standard single pole ON/

Off switch located at a location of your choice . You may also 

extent these wires to any length, as long as you select a wire 

of equal quality .

XW2018

Due to high operating temperatures, this appliance 

should    be  located  out  of  traffic  &  away  from 

furniture and draperies.

  Children  and  adults  should  be  alerted  to  the 

hazards  of  the  high  surface  temperature,  which 

could cause burns or clothing ignition.

  Young  children  should  be  carefully  supervised 

when they are in the same room as the appliance.

  Clothing or other flammable materials should not 

be placed on or near the appliance.
