Install the rheostat into a junction box at the remote location. Run the wire from the junction box to the fireplace. Use the included wire clamp to secure the wiring as it passes through the fireplace (see the illustration below). 4 Connect the three wires from the rheostat to the three wires on the wiring harness disconnected in step 2 (use the included wire nuts).

6 Accent Light Operation OFF LOW HIGH Turn the dial all the way counter-clockwise until it clicks off. Turn the dial 180 clockwise until the light begins to glow. The high position is all the way clockwise. NOTE: The accent light responds best when turned to high, then turned down to the desired light level. Bulb Replacement NOTE: Do not touch the bulb oil or other residue left on the bulb may lead to premature bulb failure. Use the packaging (or paper towel) to handle the bulb. The bulbs must be replaced with 35 Watt 120 Volt T4 Halogen Bulbs (G6.35 Base) available at most hardware stores. To replace the bulb, simply remove it from the socket and insert the new bulb (pin orientation does not matter). Page 6 of 6 6/6/08 Travis Industries, Inc.
