Proﬂ ame 2 Transmitter

Proﬂ ame 2 Battery Holder

Proﬂ ame 2 Integrated Fireplace Control (IFC)

TECHNICAL DATA:

Supply voltage 6.0V (four 1.5 V AA batteries)

Ambient temperature ratings 0 - 60 °C (32 - 140 °F)

FUNCTIONS:

The Proﬂ ame 2 battery holder provides backup system

power during line power interruption through the

installed 4 AA batteries.

The Proﬂ ame 2 battery holder connects directly to the

Proﬂ ame 2 integrated ﬁ replace control (IFC) board

through the 600.584.920 and 600.584.922 wire harness.

The Proﬂ ame 2 battery holder has a three position slider

switch for system control. The slider switch can be set to one

of three positions:

1. OFF position: With the slider in OFF position, the system

is “OFF”. No function can be selected by the transmitter.

No “beep” will be emitted from the Proﬂ ame 2 IFC when a

command is sent by pressing any key on the transmitter

(for example the ON / OFF key).

2. On position: With the slider in ON position, the burner

ﬂ ame is “ON”. Only the other functions (Fan etc.) can be selected by the transmitter.

3. Remote position: With the slide in Remote position, all the functions can be selected by the transmitter.

4. Programming Button (PRG): When pushed allows a transmitter to be accepted for use by the system. See

“Initializing the System for the ﬁ rst time” below.

INITIALIZING THE TRANSMITTER / RECEIVER LINK SYSTEM FOR THE FIRST TIME

Install the 4 AA batteries into the Proﬂ ame 2 Battery holder battery bay, it is located behind the magnetic pull

down ﬂ ap that is directly below the ﬁ rebox. Note the polarity of the battery and insert into the battery bay as

indicated on the cover (+/-). Place the 3 position slider switch in the “Remote” position. Press the “PRG”

button on the Receiver front cover. The Receiver will “beep” to indicate that it is ready to synchronize with

a Transmitter. Install 3 AAA type batteries in the Wall Mount Transmitter battery bay, located on the back of

the Transmitter and push the On button. The Receiver will “beep” to indicate the Transmitter’s command is

accepted and set to the particular code of that Transmitter. The system is now initialized.

LOW BATTERY POWER DETECTION

The life span of the Proﬂ ame 2 IFC 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

Proﬂ ame 2 IFC batteries are low, two (2) “beeps” will be emitted from the Proﬂ ame 2 IFC every time it receives

a command from the Transmitter. This is an alert for a low battery condition for the Proﬂ ame 2 IFC. When the

batteries are replaced one (1) “beep” will be emitted from the Proﬂ ame 2 IFC when a command is sent by

pressing any key on the transmitter (for example the ON / OFF key), see “Initialization of The System”.

MAINTENANCE and SERVICE

ROUTINE MAINTENANCE

Regularly:

• Clean and remove any lint accumulations or debris from the grills and combustion or convection air

passage ways.

• Keep the appliance area free from combustible materials, such as paper, wood, clothing, gasoline,

ﬂ ammable solids, liquids and vapors.

• Visually check the height and color of the burner and pilot ﬂ ames. The pilot ﬂ ame should be blue with

little or no yellow on the tips.

• Check for unusual noises or odors during operation of the appliance.

• Check the vent terminal for any damage, or obstruction by plants or debris accumulation.

It is recommended to periodically have your appliance serviced by a qualiﬁ ed service technician:

1. Remove the glass door (see “GLASS DOOR REMOVAL” on next page) and clean the inside of the

glass with a soft, non-abrasive cloth and water or a suitable, mild, non-abrasive cleaner.

2. Remove and clean the glass ﬂ oor panel and set aside.

3. Remove and clean the ﬂ oor panel assembly, check the burner to see if all the ports are clear and clean.

Check the pilot assembly to make sure it is not blocked by anything.

4. Completely inspect the appliance and the venting system.

5. Check the safety system of the gas valve.

CLEANING SURFACES

Painted, powder coated, or porcelain enameled surfaces should be wiped with a damp cloth periodically.

Ensure the appliance has cooled down completely before any cleaning. Do not use other cleaners as they

may leave a residue which can become permanently etched into the surface.

CLEANING THE GLASS

DO NOT TO CLEAN THE GLASS WHILE IT IS HOT

One of the by-products of combustion and moisture in the ﬁ rebox is a white ﬁ lm which can show up on the

glass of the viewing door. Initial curing of the appliance can also leave a slight ﬁ lm on the glass, which is a

temporary problem.

1. Turn oﬀ the appliance and allow it to cool down completely.

2. Remove the glass door from the ﬁ rebox (see “GLASS DOOR REMOVAL” on next page)

3. Check the gasket material on the back of the glass. Ensure that it is attached and intact.

4. Clean the glass with a mild glass cleaner and a soft cloth (see below). Abrasive cleaners will damage

the glass

Slight soiling of SCHOTT ROBAX® panels can be removed using conventional glass cleaning products,

provided they are used according to instructions of use, which means cleaning on cold surfaces. The residues

should be removed since chemical attack is possible on exposure to temperature. The coated ROBAX®

Mirror, ROBAX® TrueView, ROBAX® IR Max and ROBAX® Energy Plus can be cleaned with a soft cloth.

NOTE: IT IS NOT RECOMMENDED TO USE SCOURING PADS, ABRASIVE CLEANSERS OR SCOURING

AGENTS, AS MAY CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE GLASS SURFACE. THE SCHOTT-RECOMMENDED DRY

WIPER IS SUITABLE FOR USE ONLY ON UNCOATED FIRE VIEWING PANELS.
