RESETTING THE TEMPERTURE CUTOUT SWITCH

The heater on this fireplace is protected with a safety device to prevent overheating.

Should the heater overheat, a red light (Fig. 4) will be activated and an automatic cut

out will turn the heater off. The heater will re-activate once the heater has cooled. The overheat cutout will be triggered if the filter is dirty.

WALL MOUNTED CONTROLS

The fireplace can be installed with wall mounted controls. These controls include wall switches and thermostats. (see installation guide for details)

A. Wall Mounted Switches

This model may be installed such that a wall mounted switch activates the flame effect and a wall mounted heater switch activates the heater. A wall mounted switch can also be installed to operate the heater independent of the flame.

B. Wall Mounted Thermostat

This unit may be installed such that a wall mounted thermostat can adjust the heat temperature to your individual requirements. Turn the thermostat control clockwise all the way to turn on the heater. When the room reaches the desired temperature, turn the thermostat knob counter clockwise until you hear a click. Leave in this position to maintain the room temperature at this setting. For additional heat, turn the thermostat clockwise until you hear the click again and the heater will turn on. To turn the heater off, turn the thermostat counter clockwise all the way, and/or turn the manual heater switch on the unit to the OFF position.

VOLTAGE SELECTOR SWITCH LOCATION

IMPORTANT:

Ensure that the incoming power supply voltage matches the setting of the voltage selector

switch.

NOTE:

The voltage selector switch is located inside the exhaust panel on the top right hand corner (FIGURE 6).

CAUTION:

When changing the voltage selector switch from 240 volts to 120 volts ensure that the power supply is turned off.

NOTE:

Carefully insert a flat headed screwdriver inside the exhaust panel to change the switch from 240 volts (230 position) to 120 volts (115 position).
