Issue 2. 5/01/04 08/18720/0

IMPORTANT: THESE INSTRUCTIONS SHOULD BE READ CAREFULLY AND RETAINED FOR FUTURE REFERENCE

Introduction This fire incorporates a flame effect which can be used without

heating, so that the comforting effect may be enjoyed at any
time of the year. The flame effect is provided by low wattage
motor and two 40 watt lamps. Using the flame effect on its
own, therefore, requires little electricity.

The controls are concealed behind the ash pan flap beneath
the firebox. A choice of 1 kW or 2kW thermostatically
controlled heat output is provided by the fan heater, which is
concealed beneath the unit.

This model is designed to be free standing and is normally
positioned against a wall.

Installation Instructions Ensure that all packing items are removed (read any warning

labels carefully).

Retain all packing until installation is complete.
