IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS
Basic Precautions
When using any electrical appliance, basic precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and injury to persons. These precautions include:
Read all instructions before using the RevillusionTM Built-in Electric Firebox.
DANGER: High temperatures may be generated under certain abnormal conditions. Do not partially or fully cover or obstruct the front of the rebox.
This firebox 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 3 feet (0.9 m) from the front of the firebox.
Extreme caution is necessary when the firebox is used by or near children or invalids and whenever the firebox is left operating and unattended.
Always turn off the firebox when it is not in use.
Do not operate the firebox after it malfunctions, has been dropped, or damaged in any manner. Disconnect power at the service panel and have the firebox inspected by a reputable electrician before using.
Do not use this firebox outdoors.Never locate the firebox where it
may fall into a bathtub or other water
container. Do not insert or allow foreign
objects to enter any ventilation or exhaust opening as this may cause an electric shock, or fire, or damage the firebox.
To prevent a possible fire, do not block air intakes or exhaust in any manner
To disconnect the heater, turn the controls to OFF and turn off the power to the heater circuit at the main disconnect panel.
All electrical heaters have hot and arcing or sparking parts inside. Do not use it in areas where gasoline, paint, or flammable liquids are used or stored.
Do not modify this firebox. Use it only as described in this manual. Any other use may cause fire, electric shock, or injury to persons.
Do not burn wood or other materials in this firebox.
Disconnect all power coming to the firebox at the main service panel before performing any cleaning or maintenance.
When transporting or storing the firebox, keep it in a dry place, free from excessive vibration, and store to avoid damage.
NOTE: Changes or modications
!
not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void user's authority to operate the equipment.

A dedicated circuit is preferred, but not essential in all cases. A dedicated circuit will be required if, after installation, the circuit breaker trips or the fuse blows on a regular basis when the heater is operating. Additional appliances on the same circuit may exceed the current rating of the circuit breaker.
Unpacking the Unit
The unit comes packed with a protective sheet covering the front of the unit. This sheet is intended to prevent dust and debris from entering during construction. This sheet is designed so that it can be partially removed to complete the wiring and unpacking and can be reinstalled until the final installation is complete.
The log set was installed on the grate and the grate permanently fixed to the firebox at the factory.
Carefully remove the packaging from around the log set. Make sure the wires from the log set are connected securely to the grate box.
CAUTION: The Realogs™ contain
LEDs to create a unique pulse and glow effect. Handle the log set carefully. They are fragile and can crack or break if dropped.
WARNING: Electrical outlet wiring must comply with local building codes and other applicable regulations to reduce the risk of re, electric shock, or injury to persons.

Maintenance
General Maintenance
Inspect the built-in electric firebox regularly, depending upon conditions, and at a minimum yearly intervals. Remove dust and clean the logs, grate, and base as required.
WARNING: Disconnect power and allow heater to cool before attempting any maintenance or cleaning to reduce the risk of re, electric shock, or injury.
CAUTION: Except for installation and cleaning described in this manual, an authorized service representative should perform any other servicing.
Clean Logs and Base
The built-in electric firebox set should not be operated with an accumulation of dust or dirt on or in the firebox, as this can cause a build up of heat and eventual damage.
Dust and vacuum the firebox as needed. Use a damp cloth and a mild detergent to clean painted surfaces of the built-in electric firebox. Never use abrasive cleaners.
Remote Battery Replacement
To replace the battery:
1. Push down on the battery cover located on the back of the remote control. Slide the battery cover
open.
2. Install 3V (CR2032) Lithium battery in the battery holder. The positive (+) side of the battery faces up.
3. Close the battery cover.
The old battery must be recycled or disposed of properly. Check with your Local Authority or Retailer for recycling advice in
your area.
CAUTION: When transporting or
storing the heater and cord, keep in a dry place, free from excessive vibration and store so as to avoid damage.
Clean Reflector Screen
The reflector screen is cleaned in the factory during the assembly operation. During shipment, installation, handling, etc., the screen may collect dust particles; these can be removed by dusting lightly with a clean dry cloth.
To remove fingerprints or other marks, clean the reflector screen damp cloth. Never use abrasive cleaners. Dry the screen completely with a lint free cloth to prevent water spots.

What this limited warranty covers and for how long
Products, other than replace surrounds (mantels) and trims, covered by this limited warranty have been tested and inspected prior to shipment. Subject to the provisions of this warranty, Dimplex warrants such products to be free from defects in material and workmanship for a period of 2 years from the date of the rst purchase of such products as follows: (a) a repair or replacement warranty on defective products or parts, including in­home services, for the rst year following the date of rst purchase; and (b) thereafter, a replacement of parts warranty on defective products and parts (with no in-home services) for the 1 year period commencing on the rst anniversary of rst purchase and ending on the second anniversary of the date of rst
purchase. Dimplex replace surrounds (mantels) and
trims covered by this limited warranty have been tested and inspected prior to shipment and, subject to the provisions of this warranty, Dimplex warrants such products to be free from defects in material and workmanship for a period of 1 year from the date of rst purchase of such products. Warranty services do not include in-home services.
The limited 2 year warranty period for products other than replace surrounds (mantels) and trims and the limited 1 year warranty period for replace surrounds (mantels) and trims also applies to any implied warranties that may exist under applicable law. Some jurisdictions do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitation may not apply to the purchaser.

This limited warranty does further not apply to defects resulting from misuse, abuse, accident, neglect, incorrect installation, improper maintenance or handling, or operation with an incorrect power source.
