Important Safety Advice

When using electrical appliances, basic precautions
should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire,
electrical shock and injury to persons, including the
following:

If the appliance is damaged, check with the supplier
before installation and operation.

Do not use outdoors.
Do not use in the immediate surroundings of a bath,

shower or swimming pool.
Do not locate the heater immediately below a fixed socket

outlet or connection box.
This appliance is not intended for use by children or other

persons without assistance or supervision if their
physical, sensory or mental capabilities prevent them
from using it safely. Children should be supervised to
ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

Do not use this heater in series with a thermal control, a
program controller, a timer or any other device that
switches on the heat automatically, since a fire risk exists
when the heater is accidentally covered or displaced.

Ensure that furniture, curtains or other combustible
material are positioned no closer than 1 metre from the
heater.

In the event of a fault unplug the heater.
Unplug the heater when not required for long periods.
Although this heater complies with safety standards, we

do not recommend its use on deep pile carpets or on
long hair type of rugs.

The appliance must be positioned so that the plug is
accessible.

If the supply cord is damaged it must be replaced by the
manufacturer or service agent or a similarly qualified
person in order to avoid a hazard.

Keep the supply cord away from the front of the heater.
WARNING: In order to avoid overheating, do not cover the

heater. Do not place material or garments on the heater,
or obstruct the air circulation around the heater. The
heater carries the Warning symbol indicating that it must
not be covered.

General

Unpack the heater carefully and retain the packaging for possible
future use, in the event of moving or returning the fire to your supplier.
Loose coals are packed separately within the carton. When the
heater is assembled the coals are placed on top of the fuel bed

The fire incorporates a flame effect, which can be used with or
without heating, so that the comforting effect may be enjoyed at any
time of the year. Using the flame effect on its own only requires little
electricity.

These models are designed to be free standing and are normally
positioned against a wall.

Before connecting the heater check that the supply voltage is the
same as that stated on the heater.

Please note: Used in an environment where background noise is
very low, it may be possible to hear a sound which is related to the
operation of the flame effect. This is normal and should not be a
cause for concern.

Electrical

WARNING – THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.

This heater must be used on an AC ~ supply only and the voltage
marked on the heater must correspond to the supply voltage.

Before switching on, please read the safety warnings and operating
instructions.

Wall fixing - see Fig. 1

Drill holes using a 6mm drill as illustrated. Insert plugs and screws.
The raw plug supplied is suitable for use in block walls (special
fasteners required on stud walls). Do not fully tighten screws, leave
the head of the screw at least 10mm away from the wall. Place the
keyhole slots on the fire over the screws and lower into position.

Controls - see Fig. 2

Three switches provide a choice of heat settings. A switch is in the
ON position when the side with the markings on (i.e. I, I, or II) is
pushed in.

Switch 1 (I) Controls the electricity supply to the heater and

flame effect.

Note: This switch must be in the ON (I) position for heater to operate

temperature is reached. Set back the thermostatic controller until the
appliance switches off with an audible “click”. This temperature will
be kept almost constant by the thermostatic control switching on and
off automatically.Please note that the appliance can only be switched
on when the thermostat setting is higher then the room temperature.

Remote control - see Fig. 3

The maximum range of use is ~ 15metres.
Warning: It takes time for the receiver to respond to the transmitter.
Do not press the buttons more than once within two seconds for

correct operation.

Battery information - see Fig. 3

1. Slide open the battery cover on the back of the remote control

2. Install AAA batteries into the remote control

3. Replace the battery cover.

Discard leaky batteries.

Dispose of batteries in the proper manner according to provincial and
local regulations.

Any battery may leak electrolyte if mixed with a different battery type,
if inserted incorrectly, if all the batteries are not replaced at the same
time, if disposed of in a fire, or if an attempt is made to charge a
battery not intended to be recharged.

Thermal Safety Cut-out

A thermal safety cut-out is incorporated in the heater to prevent
damage due to overheating. This can happen if the heat outlet was
restricted in any way. The heater will switch on once the obstruction
has been removed and the heater has cooled. If the cut-out continues
to operate intermittently, the heater should be switched off and a
service agent contacted.
