QUICK REFERENCE GUIDE
1. Prior to the fi rst use of the fi rebox verify the following:
• Are the circuit breakers for the fi rebox on?
• Are the light bulbs in your fi rebox loose? (to check, follow the instructions
for replacing the light bulbs under the Maintenance section of this manual)
• Is the fi rebox switched on?
2. The heater on your fi rebox may emit a slight, harmless odor when fi rst used.
This odor is a normal condition caused by the initial heating of internal heater
parts and will not occur again, if required ventilate the room.

electric shock, and injury to persons, including the following:
1. Read all instructions before using the electric fi rebox.
2. This fi rebox is hot when in use. To avoid burns, do not let bare skin touch hot surfaces. The trim
around the heater outlet becomes hot during heater operation. Keep combustible materials, such as
furniture, pillows, bedding, papers, clothes, and curtains at least 0.9m from the front and side of the
unit.
3. Extreme caution is necessary when any heater is used by or near children or invalids and whenever
the unit is left operating and unattended. For additional safety purchase a suitable fi reguard.
4. Young children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
5. The appliance is not intended for use by persons(including children) with reduced physical sensory or
mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or
instruction concerning the use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
6. The appliance must be positioned so that the plug is accessible.
7. Always unplug the electric fi rebox when not in use.
8. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, or its service agent, or a
qualifi ed person in order to avoid a hazard.
9. Do not operate any unit with a damaged cord or plug, or if the heater has malfunctioned, or if the

OPERATION
REMOTE CONTROL
The remote control has a range of approximately 15 meters.
REMOTE CONTROL INITIALIZATION
This procedure may be required if there is a loss of power to the remote
control in the fi rebox (i.e. power failure, breaker tripped, main power switch is

2. Locate manual controls. (FIGURE 4)
3. Activate main power switch.
4. Press — (ON) button located on the Manual Selection Control
for 3 seconds (FIGURE 5). All 3 indicators will fl ash.
5. Press the ON button on the transmitter (FIGURE 3). The
indicators will fl ash rapidly and then turn off.
This will synchronize the remote control transmitter and receiver.
REMOTE CONTROL USAGE
The remote control operates the fi rebox levels sequentially. The level is
increased every time the ON button on the transmitter is pressed. The fi rebox
can be turned off at any point by pressing the OFF button on the remote
control transmitter, or by switching off the mains switch.

HEATER THERMOSTAT CONTROL
To adjust the 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 clockwise until you hear the click again and the heater will turn on

GLASS CLEANING
The glass is cleaned in the factory during the assembly operation. During shipment, installation, handling,
etc., the glass may collect dust particles. These can be removed by dusting lightly with a clean dry cloth.
To remove fi ngerprints or other marks, the glass can be cleaned with a damp cloth. To prevent scratch-
ing, do not use abrasive cleaners or spray liquids on the glass surface.
