50D0077 Rev 1 Page 2 of 10 Ambient TechnologiesA Division Of MHSWARNINGImportant Safety Information• 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 remotecontrol 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 thetransmitter and receiver. Wiring must conform to appliance requirement and building codes/ordinances asrequired 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 coulddamage the unit and void the warranty.• This remote control system should only be used as described in this manual. Any other use is notrecommended and will void the warranty.NOTEDue to the sensitive temperature monitoring components in the transmitter, it is necessary toallow the transmitter to stabilize to room temperature before accurate room temperatures aredisplayed. If the transmitter is activated from a severe cold condition, allow 15 minutes foraccurate temperature readings to appear on the LCD.WARNINGTurn appliance OFF and allow to cool before installing or servicing. DO NOT connect110-120 VAC wiring directly to the milli-volt gas control valve. The remote operator must beinstalled exactly as outlined in these instructions. Read all instructions completely beforeattempting installation. Follow instructions carefully during installation. Any modification ofcomponents will void the warranty and may cause a fire hazard.WARNINGLow battery power in the transmitter or receiver can affect the operation of the remotecontrol in the AUTO mode. In some cases the unit may not cycle off when the targettemperature is reached.
