39669-0-0618Page 6
IPI ELECTRONIC SYSTEM OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS (70 SERIES)
5.25 VDC ELECTRONIC CONTROL VALVE
The electronic control valve system includes the ability to switch
the pilot from a standing pilot mode to an intermittent pilot mode.
• IPI Mode - In the Intermittent Pilot mode, when the
replace is turned ON, it will cause spark to the pilot,
light the pilot, then allow the burner to light. When the
replace is turned to OFF, both the burner and pilot will
be OFF.
• CPI Mode - In the Continuous Pilot mode, the pilot
remains ON continuously even when the burner is
turned OFF.
NOTICE: A small toggle switch is located on the front of the
module tray that is used to switch from IPI (left) to the CPI (right).
See Figure 3.
When the replace is turned to ON, the electrical current will
energize a spark to the pilot igniter. Once the pilot sensor heats
up (after a few seconds), the valve will be energized, allowing
gas to ow to the burner.
1. Follow the SAFETY and LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS for
Intermittent Pilot controls found in this manual, and on labels
found in the control compartment located in the lower cavity
of the replace.
2. During the operating season (or in power outage periods),
it is recommended that the pilot remain in the CPI (standing
pilot mode) to reduce cold start issues, and/or conserve
battery backup power during a power outage.
3. The gas valve has inlet and outlet pressure taps as shown in
Figure 3. Refer to page 13 for gas pressure requirements.
NOTICE: The gas control has a manual HI/LO ame adjustment
knob (regulator) that allows you to increase or decrease the
height of the burner ame. See Figure 3. Rotate the HI/LO
knob counterclockwise to “HI” to increase the ame height, and
clockwise to “LO” to decrease the ame height.
OPTIONAL REMOTE CONTROLS
Optional remote controls are available for use with this replace.
It is recommended that the remote receiver be placed either in
a wall outlet box with extended wiring, on the replace hearth,
behind the left side surround panel, or in the control compartment
area as far forward in the insert as possible.
The placement options for the remote receiver are given to allow
exibility, however battery life will be extended when the receiver
is placed in cooler areas.
To connect the remote receiver to the replace, rst disconnect
the ON/OFF switch wires from the white and green wire
connectors and connect the wires from the remote receiver to the
green and white wire connectors. See Figure 3.
Follow the instructions included with the remote control for
programming and other operational information.

39669-0-0618 Page 7
SEASONAL SHUTDOWN
1. At the end of the heating season turn off the replace to
prevent accidentall starting. Remove the barrier screen to
gain access to the gas control valve, ON/OFF switch, and
gas shut-off valve.
2. Depending on the valve type the replace is equipped with,
refer to either pages 3 or 5 for details on shutting off gas to
the replace.
3. Turn off gas to replace using the external shut-off valve.
See pages 3 or 5.
4. If the replace includes a remote control, remove the batter-
ies from the transmitter and battery backup. Purchase fresh
batteries before the start of the next heating season.

39669-0-0618Page 8
PLEASE NOTE
It is normal for appliances fabricated of steel to give off some
expansion and/or contraction noise during the start up or
cool down cycle. Similar noises are found with your furnace
heat exchanger or car engine.
It is not unusual for your gas replace to give off some odor the
rst time it is burned. This is due to the curing of the paint and
any undetected oil from the manufacturing process.
Please ensure that your room is well ventilated - open all windows.
It is recommended that you burn your replace for at least six
(6) hours the rst time you use it. If optional fan kit has been
installed, place fan in the “OFF” position during this time.
IMPORTANT: Turn off gas before servicing appliance. It is
recommended that a qualied service person perform these check-
ups at the beginning of each heating season.
• Clean Burner and Control Compartment
Keep the control compartment, logs, and burner areas surrounding
the logs clean by vacuuming or brushing at least twice a year.
Cleaning Procedure
1. Turn off pilot light at gas valve.
2. Remove glass front. (See Glass Removal)
3. Vacuum burner compartment.
4. Reinstall glass front.
5. Ignite pilot. (See Lighting Instructions)
6. Operate the pilot burner. If it appears abnormal call a service
person.
• Check Vent System
The appliance and venting system should be inspected before
initial use and at least annually by a qualied service person.
Inspect the external vent cap on a regular basis to make sure
that no debris is interfering with the air ow.
Glass Cleaning
It will be necessary to clean the glass periodically. During start-up
condensation, which is normal, forms on the inside of the glass and
causes lint, dust and other airborne particles to cling to the glass
surface. Also initial paint curing may deposit a slight lm on the
glass. It is therefore recommended that the glass be cleaned two or
three times with a non-abrasive household cleaner and warm water
(we recommend gas replace glass cleaner). After that the glass
should be cleaned two or three times during each heating season
depending on the circumstances present.
General Glass Information

SAFETY INFORMATION FOR USERS OF PROPANE GAS
Propane is a ammable gas which can cause res and
explosions. In its natural state, propane is odorless and
colorless. You may not know all the following safety
precautions which can protect both you and your
family from an accident. Read them carefully now, then
review them point by point with the members of your
household. Someday when there may not be a minute to
lose, everyone’s safety will depend on knowing exactly
what to do. If, after reading the following information,
you feel you still need more information, please contact
your gas supplier.
PROPANE GAS WARNING ODOR
If a gas leak happens, you should be able to smell the
gas because of the odorant put in the Propane Gas.
That’s your signal to go into immediate action!
• Do not operate electric switches, light matches, use your
phone. Do not do anything that could ignite the gas.
• Get everyone out of the building, vehicle, trailer, or area.
Do that IMMEDIATELY.
• Close all gas tank or cylinder supply valves.
• Propane Gas is heavier than air and may settle in low
areas such as basements. When you have reason to
suspect a gas leak, keep out of basements and other
low areas. Stay out until reghters declare them to be
safe.
• Use your neighbor’s phone and call a trained Propane
Gas service person and the re department. Even though
you may not continue to smell gas, do not turn on the
gas again. Do not re-enter the building, vehicle, trailer,
or area.
•Finally, let the service man and reghters check for
escaped gas. Have them air out the area before you
return. Properly trained Propane Gas service people
should repair the leak, then check and relight the gas
appliance for you.
NO ODOR DETECTED - ODOR FADE
Some people cannot smell well. Some people cannot
smell the odor of the chemical put into the gas. You
must nd out if you can smell the odorant in propane.
Smoking can decrease your ability to smell. Being around an
odor for a time can affect your sensitivity or ability to detect
that odor. Sometimes other odors in the area mask the gas
odor. People may not smell the gas odor or their minds are
on something else. Thinking about smelling a gas odor can
make it easier to smell.
The odorant in Propane Gas is colorless, and it can fade
under some circumstances. For example, if there is an
underground leak, the movement of the gas through soil can
lter the odorant. Odorants in Propane Gas also are subject
to oxidation. This fading can occur if there is rust inside the
storage tank or in iron gas pipes.
The odorant in escaped gas can adsorb or absorb onto or
into walls, masonry and other materials and fabrics in a room.
That will take some of the odorant out of the gas, reducing
its odor intensity.
Propane Gas may stratify in a closed area, and the odor
intensity could vary at different levels. Since it is heavier than
air, there may be more odor at lower levels. Always be sensitive
to the slightest gas odor. If you detect any odor, treat it as a
serious leak. Immediately go into action as instructed earlier.
SOME POINTS TO REMEMBER
•Learn to recognize the odor of Propane Gas. Your
local Propane Gas Dealer can give you a “Scratch and
Sniff” pamphlet. Use it to nd out what the propane odor
smells like. If you suspect that your Propane Gas has a
weak or abnormal odor, call your Propane Gas Dealer.
• If you are not qualied, do not light pilot lights, perform
service, or make adjustments to appliances on the
Propane Gas system. If you are qualied, consciously think
about the odor of Propane Gas prior to and while lighting
pilot lights or performing service or making adjustments.
• Sometimes a basement or a closed-up house has a musty
smell that can cover up the Propane Gas odor. Do not try
to light pilot lights, perform service, or make adjustments
in an area where the conditions are such that you may not
detect the odor if there has been a leak of Propane Gas.
• Odor fade, due to oxidation by rust or adsorption on walls
of new cylinders and tanks, is possible. Therefore, people
should be particularly alert and careful when new tanks
or cylinders are placed in service. Odor fade can occur
in new tanks, or reinstalled old tanks, if they are lled
and allowed to set too long before relling. Cylinders
and tanks which have been out of service for a time
may develop internal rust which will cause odor fade. If
such conditions are suspected to exist, a periodic sniff
test of the gas is advisable. If you have any question
about the gas odor, call your Propane Gas Dealer.
Aperiodic sniff test of the Propane Gas is a good
safety measure under any condition.
• If, at any time, you do not smell the Propane Gas odorant
and you think you should, assume you have a leak. Then
take the same immediate action recommended above for
the occasion when you do detect the odorized Propane Gas.
• If you experience a complete “gas out,” (the container
is under no vapor pressure), turn the tank valve off
immediately. If the container valve is left on, the container
may draw in some air through openings such as pilot light
orices. If this occurs, some new internal rusting could
occur. If the valve is left open, then treat the container
as a new tank. Always be sure your container is under
vapor pressure by turning it off at the container before
it goes completely empty or having it relled before it is
completely empty.
