Introduction
These fires incorporate 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. The flame effect is provided
by a low wattage motor and two 25 watt lamps. Using the
flame effect on its own, therefore, requires little electricity.
The manual controls are located behind the firebox door. The
remote control is packed separately in the carton. A Choice
of 1kw or 2kw thermostatically controlled heat output is provided by the fan heater, which is concealed beneath the unit.
These models are designed to be free standing and are normally positioned against a wall.
Electrical connection
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. This heater is fitted with a rewirable plug incorporating a 13 amp fuse. In the event of replacing the fuse in the
plug supplied, a 13 amp fuse approved by ASTA to BS 1362
must be used. If any other type of plug is used, a 15 amp fuse
must be fitted in the plug, the adaptor, or at the distribution
board.
IMPORTANT : If the plug is not suitable for your socket, the
13 amp plug should be removed. Before wiring the appropriate plug, please note that the wires in this mains lead are
coloured in accordance with the following code :
GREEN AND YELLOW : EARTH
BLUE : NEUTRAL
BROWN : LIVE
Connect the GREEN AND YELLOW wire to the terminal
marked ‘E’ or by the earth symbol
. Connect the BROWN/
RED wire to the terminal marked ‘L’. Connect the BLUE/
BLACK wire to the terminal marked ‘N’ .

Thermostat Operation (see Fig. 6)
The thermostat controls the heat output according to the room
temperature. This ensures that the heater will not produce
heat unnecessarily when the room is warm.
To set the temperature you require, turn the thermostat knob
fully clockwise to ‘max’ position. When the room is warm
enough, turn the knob back slowly until the thermostat just
clicks off. The heater will now maintain your selected temperature.
Note : Once the thermostat has switched the appliance OFF
it may take some time before the heater comes back on. This
does not mean that the appliance is faulty.
Remote Control
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.
Manual Controls
Note : The Standby
Switch must first be
turned on to operate
either the manual or
the remote controls.
