Remote Control System
The remote control and receiver allow you
to command the functions of your fireplace
from the comfort of your chair. They are
configured to control the primary burner
operation, its flame levels (through six levels)
and provide ON/OFF and smart control of
this appliance.
The control board connects directly to the
gas valve and stepper motor (see Wire Diagram on Page 18).
The control is powered by four (4) AA batteries in
the wall switch and/or 120 VAC line power.
The control accepts commands via radio
frequency from the transmitter and does not
require line-of-sight operation.
The ON/REMOTE/OFF switch can be set to
one of three positions:
• ON (manual override)
• REMOTE (remote control)
• OFF
Initializing the System for the First Time
Install four (4) AA batteries into the receiver
battery bay, behind the wall switch plate.
NOTE: Install the batteries into the battery
bay as indicated on the battery cover.
Ensure that batteries are installed with
proper polarity (+/-).
Place the ON/REMOTE/OFF switch in the
REMOTE position (see Figure 3 on Page 10).
Insert the end of the paper clip (or other
similar object) into the hole marked "PRG"
on the receiver front cover. The control
board, located in the fireplace, will "beep"
three (3) times to indicate that it is ready to
synchronize with a transmitter.

Install three (3) AAA batteries in the
transmitter battery bay, located on the base
of the transmitter. With the batteries installed
in the transmitter, push the ON button. The
receiver will "beep" four (4) times to indicate
the transmitter command has been accepted
and is set to the particular code of that
transmitter. The system is now initialized.
Low Battery Power Detection
The life span of the receiver batteries
depends on various factors:
• Quality of the batteries used
• Number of ignitions of the appliance
• etc.
When the receiver batteries are low, no
"beep" will be emitted from the receiver when
it receives an ON/OFF command from the
transmitter. This is an alert for a low battery
condition for the receiver. When the batteries
are replaced the "beep" will be emitted
from the receiver when the ON/OFF key is
pressed (See Initializing the System for the First Time).
When the transmitter batteries are low, a
battery icon will appear on the LCD display
of the transmitter before all battery power is
lost. When the batteries are replaced this icon
will disappear.
WARNING
Fire Hazard. Can cause severe
injury or death. The receiver
causes ignition of the appliance. The appliance can turn on
suddenly. Keep away from the
appliance burner when operating
the remote system or activating
manual bypass of the remote
system.
CAUTION: Property damage hazard.
Excessive heat can cause property
damage. The appliance can stay lit for
many hours. Turn off the appliance if it

(see Figure 5 on Page 10).
Turn ON the Appliance
With the receiver switch in the REMOTE
position, press the ON/OFF Key on the
transmitter. The transmitter display will show
all active icons on the screen. At the same
time, the receiver connects to the gas valve
coil and the appliance main burner turns on.
A single "beep" from the receiver will confirm
reception of the command.
Turn OFF the Appliance
Press the ON/OFF Key on the transmitter. The
transmitter LCD display will only show the
room temperature and icon. At the same time,
the receiver disconnects the gas valve coil
and the appliance burner turns off. A single
"beep" from the receiver confirms reception of
the command.
Remote Flame Control
The system has six (6) flame levels. See
Figure 6 on Page 10 for an example. With
the system on, and the flame level at the
maximum in the appliance, pressing the
Down Arrow Key once will reduce the

periodic inspections and cleanings should be
performed by the homeowner.
Glass Cleaning
See Front Glass Enclosure Panel, Removal
and Installation on Page 13.
12
NOTE: Clean glass after first two weeks
of operation (after Burn-In period is over)
and then only when necessary and when
the fireplace is cool. Wipe surface with
clean, dampened, soft cloth. Follow with a
dry, soft towel as desired. Take care not to
scratch the glass surface.
WARNING: Do not use abrasive
cleaners on glass. Never clean the
glass when it is hot.
The viewing glass should be cleaned
periodically to remove any build-up caused
from the following:
• During start-up, it is normal for
condensation to form on the inside of
the glass (this condensation and fog will
usually disappear in a few minutes). The
moisture can cause lint, dust and other
airborne particles to cling to the glass
surface.
• Initial curing of the high temperature paint
and burning off of lubricants used in the
manufacturing process may result in a
film on the glass.
• A white coating may form on the glass as a
result of impurities and minerals in the fuel.
It is recommended that the glass be cleaned
two or three times during each heating
season, depending on the circumstances
present. The following cleaning solutions are
approved for use to clean glass:
• Non-ammonia based household cleaner
• 50/50 mix of white vinegar & water
• Gas replace/stove glass cleaner
Inspect Glass Gasket
Visually inspect the gasket on the backside
of the glass enclosure panels. The gasket
surface must be clean, free of irregularities
and seated firmly.
Clean Control Compartment
Keep control compartment clean by
vacuuming or brushing at least twice a year.
More frequent cleaning may be required due
to excessive lint from carpeting, bedding
materials, etc. It is important that control
compartments, burners and circulating air
passageways of the appliance be kept clean.
Clean Logs and Burner
Carefully remove the logs (use care when
handling the fiber logs, as they become quite
fragile after curing). Vacuum out any foreign
matter (lint, carbon, etc.) on the burner.
Ensure the burner ports are “open.” Remove
any carbon deposits from the under side of
the logs using a vacuum cleaner, or a soft
bristled brush (i.e. paint brush).
NOTE: Improperly positioned logs can
create carbon build-up and will alter the
performance of the appliance.
Replacing Logs
If the logs become damaged by accident or
improper handling and need replacement,
use only the proper replacement logs
from manufacturer (see Page 18 for
ordering information).
Re-install Embers, Volcanic stone and Logs
Carefully follow placement instructions on
Pages 14 and 15). All logs should fit onto
corresponding pins and/or log stoppers.
This will ensure a proper flame and
safe combustion.
NOTE: If installing the contemporary burner/
floor kit, skip this step and instead refer to
the instructions provided with the kit.
Inspect Wiring
Refer to wiring diagram on Page 18.
CAUTION: Label all wires prior to
disconnection when servicing controls.
Wiring errors can cause improper and
dangerous operation. Verify proper
operation after servicing.
ATTENTION: Au moment de
l'entretien des commandes,
étiquetez tous les fils avant de les
débrancher. des erreurs de cáblage
peuvent entraîner un fonctionnement
inadéquat et dangereux.
Inspect and clean all wire connections.
Ensure there is no melting melting or other
damage. Inspection should include:
• Terminals at the valve
• Wall ON/REMOTE/OFF switch
Low Battery Power Detection
The life span of the remote control system
batteries depends on many factors:
• the quality of the batteries used
• the number of appliance ignitions
• etc.
When the batteries are low, the receiver will
emit two (2) beeps (low battery alert) when it
receives a command from the transmitter.
After the batteries are replaced, the
receiver will emit one (1) beep when it
receives a command from the transmitter.
See "Initialization of the System" in the
Installation Instructions (P/N 506023-16).
Inspect Burner Flame and Pilot Flame Appearance
Periodically do a visual check of the burner
flame and the pilot flame. Ensure that the
burner flame appearance resembles the
flame shown in Figures 18 and 19 and as
described in Flame Appearance and Sooting
on Page 16. Refer to Figure 20 on Page 17
for more information about the pilot flame
appearance. Contact a qualified service
technician at once if any abnormal condition
is observed.
Small Area Paint Touch-up
Only use a factory supplied paint kit for
touch-ups. Paint is available at your local
Lennox Hearth Products dealer. Never
attempt to paint a hot fireplace.
If the surface later becomes stained or
marred, it may be lightly sanded and touched
up with spray paint.

BURNER ADJUSTMENTS
(QUALIFIED TECHNICIANS ONLY)
Flame Appearance and Sooting
Proper flame appearance is a flame which is
blue at the base and becomes yellow-orange
in the body of the flame. When the appliance
is first lit, the entire flame may be blue and will
gradually turn yellow-orange during the first
15 minutes of operation. After 15 minutes of
operation, if the flame is blue, or if the flame is
orange with evidence of sooting (black tip), the
air shutter opening may need to be adjusted.
If the air shutter opening is closed too far,
sooting may develop. Sooting is indicated by
black puffs developing at the tips of very long
orange flames. Sooting results in black deposits
forming on the logs, appliance inside surfaces
and on exterior surfaces adjacent to the vent
termination. Sooting is caused by incomplete
combustion in the flames and lack of combustion
air entering the air shutter opening. To achieve
a warm yellow-orange flame with an orange
body that does not soot, the shutter opening
must be adjusted between these two extremes.
Air Shutter Adjustment Guidelines
• If there is smoke or soot present, rst check
the log set positioning to ensure that the
flames are not impinging on any of the logs.
If the log set is properly positioned and a
sooting condition still exists, then the air
shutter opening should be increased.
• The more offsets in the vent system, the larger
the air shutter opening will need to be.
• An appliance operated with the air shutter
opened too far, may have flames that appear
blue and transparent. These weak, blue and
transparent flames are termed anemic.

Any damage due to carboning
resulting from improperly
setting the air shutter is not
covered under the warranty.
The following paragraphs address burner
adjustment concerns and procedures.
When lit for the first time, this appliance will emit
a slight odor for an hour or two. This is due to
the “burn-in” of internal paints and lubricants
used in the manufacturing process.
Adjustment
To adjust the flame, move the adjustment air
shutter (located on the lower venturi) back or
forward to increase or reduce the air shutter
opening, respectively. Position the air shutter to the factory setting as shown in Table 8. Allow
the burner to operate for at least 15 minutes.
Observe the flame continuously. If it appears
weak or sooty as previously described, adjust
the air shutter until the flame appearance is
as desired.
