OWNER’S
INFORMATION
Congratulations on your purchase of a Pacific Energy Gas Fireplace.
Your fireplace has been professionally installed by:
Dealer name: ___________________
Phone Number: _________________
If you discover any problems with your gas fireplace contact your dealer immediately to have the
unit repaired.
Caution: Do not attempt to repair the fireplace, you may cause injury to yourself or others and risk
causing damage to the unit.
Before operating your fireplace carefully read this manual and pay close attention to all Safety
Warnings. The manual contains important information on the unit’s safe operation and
maintenance.
When lit for the first time, the fireplace will emit a slight odour for a couple of hours. This is due to
the curing of paints, sealants, gaskets, and lubricants used in the manufacturing process. This
condition is temporary. Open doors and windows to ventilate the area. Odour caused by the curing
process may cause discomfort to some individuals.
It is normal for fireplaces fabricated from steel to give off some expansion and/or contraction
noises during the start up or cool down cycle. Similar noises are found with your furnace heat
exchanger or cook stove oven.

OWNER’S
INFORMATION
OPERATING PROCEDURE
Initializing the System for the first time
Power the receiver. Activate the procedure of the receiver
address programming, see the receiver instruction (*).
The Receiver will “beep” three (3) times to indicate that
it is ready to synchronize with a Transmitter. Install the
3 AAA type batteries in the Transmitter battery bay, located
on the base of the Transmitter. (fig. 3) With the batteries
already installed in the Transmitter, push the On button.
The Receiver will “beep” four times to indicate the
Transmitter’s
command is accepted and sets to the particular code
of that Transmitter. The system is now initialized.
(*) The receiver may be independent or integrated to the IFC hearth
appliance control module. The receiver instruction may not be
independent when part of the IFC.

compartment
Wall mounting
The Proflame remote control is supplied with an adapter for wall mounting.
Install the controller 1.5 m above floor level, well away from heat sources, kitchens, doors or
windows.
Metallic structures or radio interferences can reduce the operative distance of the device.
Make sure to attach the adapter in a level plane without any distortion. Proceed as follows:
• Detach the adapter from the body of the remote control; see Fig. A.
• Position the adapter on the wall, mark the points for the fixing holes and drill the wall.
• Fix the adapter on the wall using the mounting hardware supplied with the remote control.
• Insert the remote control onto the adapter as shown in Fig. B.

Temperature indication Display
With the system in the “OFF” position, press the Thermostat Key and the
Mode Key at the same time. Look at the LCD screen on the transmitter to
verify that a C or F is visible to the right of the Room Temperature display.
(Fig. 4 & 5)
Turn on the Appliance
With the system OFF, press the ON/OFF Key on the
Transmitter. The Transmitter display will show some other
active Icons on the screen. At the same time the Receiver
will activate the appliance. A single “beep” from the
Receiver will confirm reception of the command.
Turn off the Appliance
With the system ON, press the ON/OFF Key on the
Transmitter. The Transmitter LCD display will only show
the room temperature (Fig. 6). At the same time the
Receiver will turn off the appliance. A single “beep” from
the Receiver confirms reception of the command.
Remote Flame Control
The Proflame has six (6) flame levels. With the
system on, and the flame level at the maximum in
the appliance, pressing the down arrow key once
will reduce the flame height by one step until the
flame is turned off.
The Up Arrow Key will increase the flame height
each time it is pressed. If the Up Arrow Key is
pressed while the system is on but the flame is off,
the flame will come on in the high position. (Fig. 7)
A single “beep” will confirm reception of the
command.

ROOM THERMOSTAT (Transmitter Operation)
The Remote Control can operate as a room thermostat. The
thermostat can be set to a desired temperature to control the
comfort level in a room.
To activate this function, press the Thermostat key (Fig. 1). The
LCD display on the transmitter will change to show that the room
thermostat is “ON” and the set temperature is now displayed
(Fig.8). To adjust the set point, press the up or down arrow keys
until the desired set point temperature is displayed on the LCD
screen of the transmitter.
Smart Thermostat (Transmitter Operation)
The Smart Thermostat function adjusts the flame height in
accordance to the difference between the set point and the room
temperatures. As the room temperature gets closer to the set point
the Smart Function will modulate the flame down. If the room
temperature is cool the Smart function will modulate the flame up.
To activate this function, press the THERMOSTAT key (Fig. 1)
until the word "SMART" appears to the right of the temperature
bulb graphic (Fig. 9). To adjust the set point, press the up or down
arrow keys until the desired set point temperature is displayed on
the LCD screen of the transmitter (Fig. 10).
Note. When Smart Thermostat is activated, manual flame height
adjustment is disabled

LOW BATTERY POWER DETECTION
Transmitter
The life span of the remote control batteries depends on
various factors: quality of the batteries used, the number
of ignitions of the appliance, the number of changes to
the room thermostat set point, etc.
When the Transmitter batteries are low, a Battery Icon
will appear on the LCD display of the Transmitter (Fig. 22)
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.

OWNER’S
INFORMATION
Turn off gas and electrical power supply (if applicable) and allow ample time for unit to cool
before servicing appliance. It is recommended that the fireplace and its venting should be
inspected at least once a year by a qualified service person.
Glass Door:
Warning: Do not operate fireplace with glass door removed, cracked or broken. Replacement of
the glass door should be done by a licensed or qualified service person.
Do not strike or otherwise impact the glass in any way that may cause it to break. If the glass
becomes cracked or broken it must be replaced before using the fireplace. Replacement door can be
obtained from your nearest Pacific Energy dealer. Do not substitute with any other type.
Only the door certified with the appliance shall be used
To remove broken glass, remove Door as noted in "Door Removal" section.
Annual Inspection:
The following procedures must be performed each year by certified personnel.
a) Remove glass door and decorative media (such as logs and rocks). Inspect decorative media
and burner assemblies for soot buildup. If excessive buildup of soot is present, have a
qualified service person inspect and adjust unit for proper combustion. Clean burners with a
brush or vacuum cleaner, paying close attention to burner ports.
b) Check the pilot system for proper flame size and operation. Pilot light flame must be long
enough to overlap the burner ports. Clean pilot hood and spark rod free of soot, dust or any
other deposits.
