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.
Figure 22
CPI/IPI SWITCH
This appliance comes equipped with a CPI/IPI switch. The functions of
both the CPI/IPI switch are as follows:
Continuous pilot (CPI) - A pilot that when in operation, is intended to
remain continuously ignited until it is manually interrupted.
Intermittent pilot (IPI) - A pilot that is automatically ignited when an ap-
pliance is called on to operate and which remains continuously ignited
during each period of main burner operation. The pilot is automatically
extinguished when each main burner operating cycle is completed. The
mode of the fireplace is easily changed from an intermittent pilot ignition
system (IPI) to a continuous pilot ignition system (CPI) by using remote
control as noted above.
The benefits of having as CPI are as follows:
- Keeps venting primed for trouble free start-up under colder weather
conditions or inversions.
- Keeps the unit glass warm, which decreases the amount of condensa-
tion on start-up
-Provides owners with flexibility to choose a traditional continuous pilot.
The primary benefit of having the IPI function is a significant savings on
fuel as the pilot will only run when there is a call for heat.
Thermostat Icon: If the thermostat icon is not present on the remote
transmitter, follow instructions noted below:
1. Remove one battery from the remote.
2. Press and hold down the Thermostat button on the remote.
