C. CONTINOUS PILOT – FOR VERY COLD CONDITIONS
The IPI gas control system has the option of a continuous (standing) pilot feature. This allows you to change from a spark-to-pilot system to a standingpilot system during cold weather conditions. By having the pilot on continuously, the firebox will remain warm and a draft is established in the vent,allowing the main burner to turn on with less air-flow disruption.When continuous pilot mode is activated, the pilot will spark and light. When fireplace is turned OFF, the pilot will remain lit when main burner has beenturned OFF.This pilot feature can be activated or de-activated by the hand held remote control transmitter or the switch on the module. Instructions on followingpage.
D. OPERATION USING BATTERY POWER
IMPORTANT NOTE
When operating fireplace in this capacity, the only function available is flame modulation.
- This fireplace has an optional battery operation if electrical power is lost (see Page 51, Figure 16B). Position battery pack with four “AA” sizebatteries installed between valve and front of fireplace. This is the coolest location under firebox, ensuring longer battery life.
- Next locate the fireplace’s control module (see Page 51, Figure 16A). The “Remote/Off” slide switch on the back side of the module must be slidinto the “Off” position to allow the battery pack to function.
- Once accomplished, the fireplace can be turned fully on or off using the On/Off Rocker Switch located on the front bracket of the valve assemblybelow.
NOTE: When in Battery Mode, the only functions available are turning the fireplace on or off.No flame adjustments are available nor will the remote control be available for the fan, ember lights, thermostat, etc.
E. MATCHING SECURITY CODES
Before matching security codes make sure 120V AC is connected and powered to fireplace, and hand held remote control is installedwith (4) AAA batteries. It may be necessary to program main control module to LEARN the security code of the hand held remote control upon initialuse, if batteries are replaced, or if a replacement remote control is purchased from your dealer
- When matching security codes, be sure slide button on maincontrol module is in REMOTE; the code will not “LEARN” if slideis in OFF.
- Program main control module to LEARN a new security code bypushing in LEARN button on main control module using a pencilpoint for 2 seconds and let go (you should hear a series of ‘beeps’letting you know module is ready to learn a new code).
- Immediately press MODE button on hand held remote control(you should hear four ‘beeps’ in rapid succession in main controlmodule, indicating remote control’s code has been programmedinto the main control module). When an existing main controlmodule is introduced to a new hand held remote control, the newsecurity code will overwrite the old one.
If it ever becomes necessary to clear the memory from the hand heldremote control, simply push and hold the LEARN button for 10 seconds(you should hear three long beeps in succession). You may now followsteps outlined above to ‘RE-LEARN’ security codes.
