Manual Controls
.
The Opti-myst Manual controls are located in the drawer.
The main switch is located at the rear of the stove
(See Fig. 2 for Manual Control lay out)
Switch ‘A’:- Controls the electricity supply to the stove located at rear.
Note: This switch must be in the ‘ON’ ( I ) position for the stove to operate with or without heat.
Switch ‘B’:- Controls the function of the re.
Press
once to turn on ame e ect. This will be indicated by one beep.
Although the main lights operate immediately it will take a further 30 seconds before the ame
e ect starts.
Press
again to give ame e ec t and half heat. This will be indicated by two beeps.
Press
again to give ame e ec t and full heat. This will be indicated by three beeps.
Press
again to return to ame e ect only.
This will b e indicated by one b eep.
Press
to put stove in to standby mode.
This will b e indicated by one b eep.
Control Knob ‘C’:- Controls the intensity of the ame e ect.
Turning the control knob to the right increases the ame e ect, turning the control knob to the left
will decrease the ame e ect.
Control Knob ‘D’:- Controls the Electronic Thermostat setting.
Turning the control knob to the left will decrease the temperature setting, turning the control knob to
the right will increase the temperature setting.
When the water is empty the main lamps go out. See instructions under ‘Maintenance’, ‘Filling the
water tank’. When this procedure is complete, the main lamps will illuminate but it will take 30 seconds
before the ames return.
Depending on room temperature and humidity there may be some condensation on the inside of
the stove. This can be overcome by turning the ame control knob down and leaving the doors of the
stove slightly ajar, until the glass warms up.
Electronic Thermostat
The thermostat controls the heat output according to the room temperature. This ensures that
the stove will not produce heat unnecessarily when the room is warm.
To set the temperature you require, turn the thermostat control knob ‘D’ (See Fig. 2) to the right until
the desired temperature is reached. Alternatively to heat a cold room quickly, turn the thermostat
control knob ‘D’ (See Fig. 2) up fully. When the room has reached the desired temperature, turn the
thermostat control knob ‘D’ (See Fig. 2) to the left until the desired heat setting is achieved.
The stove will now automatically operate at this temperature.
Remote Control Operation
On the control panel, Switch A (see Fig. 2) must be in the ‘ON’ ( I ) position in order for the remote
control to operate. There are 3 buttons on the remote control. (See Fig. 7)
To operate correctly the remote must be pointed towards the front fuel e ect.
The remote control functions are as follows:
Press once to turn on Flame e ect only.
This will be indicated by one beep.
Press once to turn on Half heat and Flame e ect.
This will be indicated by two beeps.
Press again to turn on Full heat and Flame e ect.
This will be indicated by three beeps.
Standby
This will be indicated by one beep.
Battery Information.
1. Unclip the battery cover on the back of the remote control. (See Fig. 7)
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 di erent batter y type, if inserted incorrectly, if all the
batteries are not replaced at the same time, if disposed of in a re, 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 fan stove to prevent damage due to overheating. This
can happen if the heat outlet was restricted in any way or if the chimney ue has not been blocked o
e ectively. If the cut-out operates, unplug the stove from the socket outlet and allow approximately 10
minutes before reconnecting. Before switching the stove back on remove any obstruction that may be
restricting the heat outlet, then continue normal operation.
Tips for using your appliance.
1. Only pull out the drawer when its time to re ll the water tank or change a lamp, otherwise it may
lead to excess water in the sump and reduced ame e ect. If this happens empty the water from
the sump as instructed under ‘Maintenance’.
2. With the ame setting on minimum the unit will use approximately 40ml of water per hour and
will last 3 times as long than when it is at maximum ame setting.
3. Do not tilt or move the stove while there is water in the tank or sump.
4. Make sure that the stove is on a level oor.
5. The ame control knob ‘C’ Fig. 2 may be turned up or down to give a more realistic e ect.
6. Sometimes the ames appear more real when the ame control knob is turned down.
7. Give the ame generator some time to react to changes you may make on the ame control
knob.
