Installation & Precautions

INSTALLATION

Where a chimney is not blocked off completely it will cause the heater to cut out during use. ONLY if installing into a chimney and you are not
sure that you have cut off the draw 100% we recommend covering the slots in the rear and at either side.
Automatic safety cut out: The heater is fitted with an automatic cut out to prevent any damage due to overheating. The element will continually
and automatically cut out if the airflow is obstructed. Never cover the air outlets. To reset, switch the fire off, disconnect from the mains supply, remove the cause of the overheating, check the micro switches and allow to cool for a suitable period then switch the fire back on. Caution: In order to avoid a hazard due to inadvertent resetting of the thermal cut out, the appliance must not be supplied through an external switching device, such as a timer, or connected to circuit regularly switched on and off by a utility.
Electrical connections: Your appliance comes fitted with a plug that incorporates a 13A fuse. The replacement fuses must be 13A and ASTA approved. If the fuse cover is lost the plug must not be used until a replacement cover, of the same colour, is obtained from an electrical retailer. The appliance is fitted with a moulded plug if it is necessary cut off the plug, for any reason, it must be discarded immediately with the fuse removed. Under no circumstances should any attempt be made to reuse the plug, do not insert into any 13A socket as this could cause a hazard. If the mains cable is damaged it must be replaced by the manufacturer or an authorised technical service centre.

Once the bracket has been fixed in place, lift and hook the fire onto the upward facing hooks. At the bottom of the back casing, is a fold out tag. Fold this down so as to expose it under the fire when it is hung in place. Mark through the hole in the tag; remove fire from its position, drill the hole and fit rawl plug. Hang the fire back on the wall and safely secure.

• As with any electrical appliance whilst the instructions aim to cover as many eventualities as possible, caution and common sense should
be applied when operating your appliance, particularly in the vicinity of small children.
Areas around the fire will become hot when activated. We strongly recommend small children be kept away from having any direct
contact with the appliance by means of fitting a fireguard. This appliance is not intended for use by persons (or children) with r educed
physical sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience or knowledge unless they have been given supervision or instruction
concerning the use of the appliance by the person responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure they do not

PROBLEM SOLVING

• No power to the fire: Check the wall socket, plug, fuse and lamps.
• No illumination: Make sure fire is turned on. Check heater is working, if so check lamps.

chimney or cavity wall is 100% of drawn air blocked off from the fire.
• Noise when illuminated: Due to moving parts, the electric fire will make a noise.
• Noise from the heater when in use: The sound of rushing air is normal.
