The Electronic Control Module (IFT2-ECM) has a three-position ON/OFF/REMOTE selector switch that must be set for proper operation. When changing switch positions, it is important to pause in each position for 1-2 seconds.

OFF Position: The appliance will not respond to any commands from the IntelliFire Mobile App, IFT-RC150U or IFT2-RC450 remote controls. The unit should be in the OFF position during installation, service, fuel conversion and to reset the IFT2-ECM in the event the system goes into a LOCK-OUT mode as the result of a system error. When switched to the OFF position while the appliance is operating, the system will shut down.

ON Position: The appliance will ignite and run continuously at the HIGH flame setting. No adjustment in flame height is possible. The IFT2-ECM has a safety feature that will automatically shut down the fireplace after 9 hours of continuous operation in the ON position.

Remote Position: The remote position allows operation of the appliance from the IntelliFire app, IFT2-RC450 or IFT-RC150U remote controls. The IFT2-ECM switch must be in the REMOTE position to pair the IFT2-ECM with the IFT2-PACM and/or IFT2-RC450 and RC150U remote controls.

In the unlikely event that the remote wall switch malfunctions and will not turn off the appliance, you may choose one of the following actions to turn off the appliance:

Turn off power to the appliance (if back-up batteries are not installed):

When first operated, this appliance may release an odor for the first several hours. This is caused by the burning off of any oils remaining from manufacturing or from finishing materials or adhesives used around the appliance during installation.

Odor may also come from dust, pet dander, deodorizing room sprays and other foreign debris that collects on the surface of the burner and crushed glass media when the unit is not in use for an extended period of time. To avoid odors caused by these substances, have your qualified service technician thoroughly inspect and clean your appliance prior to the first use of each season.

No action is necessary. Noise is caused by metal expanding and contracting as it heats up and cools down, similar to the sound produced by a furnace or heating duct. This noise does not affect the operation or longevity of the appliance.

Verify batteries are functional and installed correctly.

Disengage Child Lock mode if the remote control is in Child Lock mode.

Press buttons firmly for one to two seconds to ensure transmission to module.

Ensure module switch is set to REMOTE.

The control module will beep when it successfully receives a command. If it does not beep, clear module memory and reprogram remote.

If the transmission indicator comes on when the power button is pressed, verify that the control module is plugged in the appliance junction box located in the controls area. Also verify that the batteries are installed in the battery pack.
