ROBERT SHAW 7000MV(RME-PO)
MILLIVOLT GAS VALVE SYSTEM
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
This gas pilot safety valve provides 100% shut-off of
both pilot and main burner gas supply in the event of
pilot flame failure. This valve is equipped with a
manual gas control knob to provide for pilot lighting.
It also has a control knob that controls flame height.
If the pilot flame goes out during normal operation, or
if there is insufficient pilot flame to provide proper
thermocouple output, the safety valve will close,
stopping the flow of all gas. This valve is designed for
use on all domestic heating gases up to 1/2" PSI.
CAUTIONS
1. This valve should be installed only by an
experienced service technician trained in gas
safety equipment.
2. Turn off gas supply before installing valve.
3. All piping must meet applicable local codes
and ordinances and the national fuel gas code
(ANSI Z223.1/NFPA NO. 54)
4. All wiring must meet applicable electrical
codes and ordinances.
5. Check out the complete system after
installing the valve.
6. Prior to installation, verify conformance
with burner manufacturer's installation
instructions.
7. Make sure all piping is free of foreign matter.
FOR YOUR SAFETY
IF YOU SMELL GAS:
1. OPEN WINDOWS
2. DON'T TOUCH ELECTRICAL
SWITCHES
3. EXTINGUISH ALL OPEN FLAMES
4. IMMEDIATELY CALL YOUR GAS

LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS
FOR YOUR SAFETY READ BEFORE LIGHTING
WARNING: If you do not follow these instructions exactly, a fire or explosion may
result causing property damage, personal injury or loss of life.
A. This appliance has a pilot, which must be lit by
hand. When lighting the pilot, follow these
instructions exactly.
B. Before lighting smell all around the appliance area
for gas. Be sure to smell next to the floor because
some gas is heavier than air and will settle on the
floor.
FOR YOUR SAFETY
"What to do if you smell gas"
* Do not try to light any appliance.
* Do not touch any electrical switch; do not use
any phone in your building.
* Immediately call your gas supplier from a
neighbor's phone. Follow the gas supplier's
instructions.
* If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the
fire department.
C. Use only your hand to push in or turn the gas
control knob. Never use tools. If the knob will not
push in or turn by hand, don't try to repair it. Call a
qualified service technician. Forced or attempted
repair may result in a fire or explosion.
D. Do not use this appliance if any part has been
under water. Immediately call a qualified service
technician to inspect the appliance and to replace any
part of the control system and any gas control, which
has been under water.
PILOT LIGHTING PROCEDURE
CAUTION: Make sure the wall switch and remote
are in the off position before lighting the pilot.
1. Turn the gas control knob to the off position (it will
be necessary to depress the knob slightly at the pilot
position). Allow five minutes for any gas in the
combustion chamber to escape (LP gas, which is
heavier than air, may require forced ventilation).
2. Turn the gas control knob to the pilot position.
3. Push in on the gas control knob and light the pilot
immediately. Hold the knob down for one full minute
after lighting the pilot.
4. When the gas control knob is released, the pilot
flame should continue to burn (if the pilot goes out;
repeat the above steps).
5. Rotate the gas control knob from pilot to on
position (full counterclockwise position) to supply full
flow of gas to main burner.
6. Leaving the control knob in the full on position.
The main burner can now be controlled by the remote
control or wall switch. You can adjust the flame
height by the control knob, if you turn it back towards
the pilot position you will decrease the gas flow, in
turn you will decrease the flame height.
PILOT FLAME ADJUSTMENT
These controls are factory preset and will not normally
require additional adjustment of the pilot flame. If
field adjustment of the pilot flame is required, remove
the pilot adjustment cover screw to expose the
adjusting screw. Turn the adjusting screw clockwise
reduce flame, or counterclockwise to increase flame.
Replace pilot adjustment cover screw and tighten
securely.
