If the transmitter is activated from a severe cold condition, allow 15 minutes for accurate temperature readings to appear on the LCD. WARNING Turn appliance OFF and allow to cool before installing or servicing. DO NOT connect 110-120 VAC wiring directly to the milli-volt gas control valve. The remote operator must be installed exactly as outlined in these instructions. Read all instructions completely before attempting installation. Follow instructions carefully during installation. Any modification of components will void the warranty and may cause a fire hazard. WARNING • Read this manual thoroughly prior to installing, programming or operating any remote control. This remote control system is designed for use with a millivolt gas valve system. Do not use this remote control system on applications with voltages above 30 Volts AC. This remote control system requires three (3) “AAA” and four (4) “AA” alkaline batteries to power the transmitter and receiver. Wiring must conform to appliance requirement and building codes/ordinances as required by local and national code authorities having jurisdiction. Do not short (or jumper) across the gas valve terminals to test the remote control installation. This could damage the unit and void the warranty. This remote control system should only be used as described in this manual. Any other use is not recommended and will void the warranty. Low battery power in the transmitter or receiver can affect the operation of the remote control in the AUTO mode. In some cases the unit may not cycle off when the target temperature is reached. 50D0077 Rev 1 Page 2 of 10 Ambient Technologies A Division Of MHS INSTALLATIONS Remote Receiver: The remote receiver may be wall mounted or installed into the appliance per the appliance homeowner’s manual. Refer to the Homeowner’s Manual for special installation instructions. If wall mounted, the remote receiver must be installed in a junction box with cover plate provided. Failure to follow the installation instructions found in the appropriate Homeowner’s Manual will void the warranty and may cause a fire hazard. Installing Batteries: The remote receiver uses four (4) “AA”- size batteries. To install batteries, 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. Remove the slide switch by gently pulling straight out.
