OPERATION

Figure 1

CAUTION: If you need to continuously reset the heater,

disconnect power and call Dimplex customer service at 1-888-DIMPLEX (1-888-346-7539).

Remote Control

The replace is supplied with a radio frequency remote control. This remote control has a range of approximately

50 feet (15.25 m), it does not have to be pointed at the

replace and can pass through most obstacles (including

walls). It is supplied with one of hundreds of independent

frequencies to prevent interference with other units.

NOTE: Before attempting any operation with the

remote, pull the plastic insulator strip out from between

the remote casing and battery cover (Figure 2).

The controls for the Electric Fireplace are located at the top

right hand corner of the unit.

Manual Controls

NOTE: Ensure that the Voltage Selector switch is set to the appropriate voltage (115V or 230V) (Figure 1F)

A. On/Off Switch

On/Off Switch, energizes rebox.

B. “-- “ Button

Pressing this button toggles sequentially through the three

levels of the replace: ame only; to ame and low heat; to ame and high heat.

NOTE: In some units after the unit is switched from

ame and high heat to another function there is a 30

second fan delay, where the fan will continue running before turning off.

C. “O” Button

Pressing this button at any time will shut the unit off.

D. 3-Position Switch

Switches the operation of the replace between the different modes of the replace:

• OFF (center): Makes the unit inoperable.

• MANUAL (top): All functions of the replace are

controlled by the On and Off buttons as described above

(A, B).

• REMOTE (bottom): All functions of the replace are

controlled by the Remote Control.

E. LED Indicators

Depicts which of the three (3) levels the replace is

currently operating at: Level 1 , Level 2 or Level 3 .

F. Voltage Selector Switch

Needs to be set to reect the incoming voltage to the unit -

115V or 230V.

Resetting the Temperature Cutoff Switch

Should the heater overheat, an automatic cut out will turn the replace off and it will not come back on without being reset. It can be reset by switching the On/Off Switch to Off and waiting ve (5) minutes before switching the unit back

on.

Remote Control Initialization/Reprogramming

If the remote control or receiver has been replaced, follow these steps to initialize the remote control and receiver:

1. Ensure that power is supplied through main service panel.

2. Access the manual controls, (remove the glass doors if applicable) pull the right hand steel curtain to the outside of the unit.

3. Locate manual controls. (Figure 1)

4. Set the 3-Position switch to “Remote” (Figure 1D)

5. Activate the On/Off Switch, the red Level 1 Indicator

Light will ash. (Figure 1A)

6. Press and hold the On button on the manual controls

(Figure 1B) for ve (5) seconds. The Level 1 Indicator Light (Figure 1E) will then ash for 10 seconds.

7. Within the 10 seconds press the ON button located on

the remote control. (Figure 2) This will synchronize the

remote control and receiver.

NOTE: In case initialization fails, repeat step 4 to 6 but stand a few feet away while pressing the ON button on the remote control.

Remote Control Usage

The remote control operates the replace levels sequentially (from off): ames only; to ames and low heat; to ames and high heat.

The level is increased every time the ON button is pressed on the remote control and the replace can be turned off at any point by pressing the OFF button.

Battery Replacement

To replace the battery:

1. Slide battery cover

open on the remote

control (Figure 2).

2. Install one (1) 12-Volt

(A23) battery in the battery holder.

3. Close the battery cover

Battery must be

recycled or

disposed of properly. Check with your Local Authority or Retailer for recycling advice in your area.

Voltage Selector Switch

The BFSL33 has 2 voltage options at the time of installation, 110/120v and 220/240v. The voltage selector switch is

to be set at the time of installation according to the voltage coming from the power supply.

The switch is located on the top right hand side of the replace next to the overheat indicator light (Figure 1F). The

number 115 (for 110/120v) or 230 (for 220/240v) will be vis-

ible on the switch. The voltage should be veried and noted

by the installer and homeowner for possible troubleshooting purposes in the future.

WARNING: Do not change the setting on the voltage

selector switch without verifying:

1. The incoming voltage from your power supply

2. The hardwire connections match your incoming voltage according to the Dimplex BFSL33 Installation Instructions.

If they do not match it could lead to internal damage or non-

functioning components within the electric replace.

NOTE: If there is a need to change the voltage selector switch position, ensure that the power to the unit

has been turned off and carefully insert a at head

screwdriver through the right side of the exhaust panel

into the notch on the switch. (Figure 1F) Then move

the switch either left or right to change it to the correct position.

MAINTENANCE

WARNING: Disconnect all power coming to replace

at main service panel before attempting maintenance

or cleaning to reduce risk of re, shock or damage to

persons.

Partially Reective Glass Cleaning

The partially reective glass is cleaned in the factory during

the assembly operation. During shipment, installation, han-

dling, etc., the partially reective glass surface may collect dust particles. These can be removed by bufng lightly with

a clean dry cloth.

To remove ngerprints or other marks, the partially reective glass can be cleaned with a damp cloth using high

quality household glass cleaner. The partially reective glass should be completely dried with a lint free cloth. To

prevent scratching, do not use abrasive cleaners or spray liquids on any surface.

CAUTION: When changing the voltage selector switch,

ensure that the power supply is turned off.

Wall Mounted Controls

The replace can be installed with wall mounted controls. These controls include wall switches, thermostats or wall mounted remote controls. (See installation guide for de-

tailed installation instructions.)

1. Wall Mounted Switches

This model may be installed so that a wall mounted switch energizes the rebox and dependent on the wiring can control the operation/function of the ame and heat (On/ Off Switch must be in the ON position). For all wiring and control options see the Installation Guide.

2. Wall Mounted Thermostat

This unit may be installed so that a wall mounted thermostat can adjust the heat temperature to your individual requirements. Please refer to thermostat manufacturers operation Instructions.

3. Wall Mounted Remote Controls (WRCPF-KIT)

Dimplex manufactures a optional wall mounted remote

control which allows the user to fully control the replace

from a central location with the added functionality of a built in thermostat.
