MENU SYSTEM

The remote is organized by means of a menu 

system.

After batteries are installed the first time, the 

remote starts at the ''OFF'' screen ( it is pos-

sible that the remote is locked in the ''OFF'' 

screen: to unlock it just press the button below 

''Unlock'', and then ''OK''. See Figure 65).

 

 

SETTING THE CONTROL MODE

There are three different modes for controlling 

the appliance:

 Manual
 Auto
 Program

In Manual mode the main burner can be 

switched on and off.

Auto mode allows you to set a temperature, 

while  in  Manual  mode  the  flame  level  may 

be set to HIGH, MEDIUM, or LOW. Program 

mode offers automatic temperature control for 

specific times of the day.

In the initial screen when the remote is 

turned on, three options are available: AUTO, 

MANUAL and MENU.
Auto and Manual are two of the three differ-

ent modes for controlling the appliance with 

the remote.

MANUAL MODE

If ''Manual'' is pressed, the flame setting ap

-

pears as the selected setting. In the bottom 

row, 

 and 

 appear, indicating that the flame 

level can be changed by pressing the left or 

middle button. Pressing ''Back'' (right button) 

returns to the initial screen (see Figure 64, 

page 29).
Note that a safety temperature can be set 

in the configuration menu. This specifies 

the maximum the maximum permitted room 

temperature. This temperature can never be 

set higher than 40ºC (104ºF).

SWITCHING ON

IMPORTANT:

 When lighting the pilot and 

burner for the first time, air will be present in 

the system that must be purged.
The lighting sequence may have to be re-

peated 10 to 15 times before gas reaches the 

pilot. This is normal.

To turn the system on, press “On” (left but

-

ton) and “OK” (middle button). A beep from 

the control module will be heard and the 

ignition process will start. This will take up 

to 20 seconds. Note that while in operation 

the signal bars will disappear for a few mo-

ments.  If  the  pilot  and  burner  do  not  light, 

press the “Off” button, wait 15 seconds then 

repeat the ignition steps from the beginning 

of this paragraph. Note: each ignition step is 

accompanied by two short series of ignition 

sparks at the pilot.

ADJUST MENU

Before  using  the  remote,  there  are  various 

settings which should be made, such as the 

date, the language, the autolock option and 

the comfort temperature.

For doing this, press ''Menu'' and then press 

''Select'' to chose ''Adjust Menu''. There the 

options shown in Figure 66, can be set. To 

change any of these settings use the down 

arrow to select the feature and then press 

"Select" and "Change" to change the setting.
