WALL SWITCH INSTALLATION
The installation of a wall switch allows you to ac-
tivate the gas control valve and turn the fireplace
on and off. The wall switch is to be connected to
the incoming 120 volt regular household wiring
that supplies the electricity to the fireplace.
OpTIONAL REMOTE CONTROL
INSTALLATION (MODEL WRC)
Note:
If using optional wireless hand-held remote
control, the wall switch must be in the ON position
to be operational. The remote control then becomes
the switching mechanism for fireplace operation.

battery. The receiver can be installed by first

unit into the extension cord. Finally plug the
ignition module plug into the receiver unit (see
Figure 40).
3. Activate the remote handset battery by
removing the insulating tab on the back of
the handset (see Figure 41). The battery is
included pre-installed.
