SHOULD ALWAYS BE FOLLOWED TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE,
ELECTRIC SHOCK, AND INJURY TO PERSONS, INCLUDING THE
FOLLOWING:

1) Read all instructions before using this electric fireplace heater.

2) This electric fireplace heater is hot when in use. To avoid
burns, do not let bare skin touch hot surfaces. The grill directly
in front of 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)
away from the front of the unit and keep them away from the
sides and rear.

3) Extreme caution is necessary when any heater is used by, or

5) Do not operate any electric fireplace with a damaged cord or
plug or after the heater malfunctions, has been dropped or
damaged in any manner.

6) Do not use outdoors.

7) This electric fireplace heater is not intended for use in
bathrooms, laundry areas and similar indoor locations. Never
locate heater where it may fall into a bathtub or other water
container.

8) Do not run cord under carpeting. Do not cover cord with throw
rugs, runners, or similar coverings. Arrange cord away from

9) To disconnect fireplace, turn controls to off, then remove plug
from outlet.

10) Connect to properly grounded outlets only.

11) 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 heater.

12) To prevent a possible fire, do not block air intakes or exhaust
in any manner. Do not use on soft surfaces, like a bed, where
openings may become blocked.

13) A heater has hot and arcing or sparking parts inside. Do not
use it in areas where gasoline, paint, or flammable liquids are
used or stored.

14) Use this fireplace heater only as described in this manual. Any
other use not recommended by the manufacturer may cause
fire, electric shock, or injury to persons.

15) Avoid the use of an extension cord because the extension cord
may overheat and cause a risk of fire. However, if you have to
use an extension cord, the cord shall be No.14 AWG minimum
size and rated not less than 1875 watts.

16) Caution: Do not plug this product into a receptacle controlled

CAUTION:
IF YOU USE THIS HEATER IN CONJUNCTION WITH A THERMAL
CONTROL, A PROGRAM CONTROLLER, A TIMER OR ANY OTHER
DEVICE THAT SWITCHES THE HEATER ON AUTOMATICALLY,
REMEMBER TO OBSERVE ALL SAFETY WARNINGS AT ALL
TIMES. THE FIREPLACE HEATER HAS SAFETY OVERHEAT
PROTECTION. IF THE OVERHEAT PROTECTION TRIPS, TURN
OFF ALL SWITCH BUTTONS AND WAIT APPROXIMATELY 5 -10
MINUTES. IT SHOULD RESET AUTOMATICALLY ONCE THE UNIT
COOLS DOWN.

WARNING: PROCEDURES AND TECHNIQUES IF NOT CAREFULLY
FOLLOWED WILL RESULT IN DAMAGE TO THE EQUIPMENT AND

ILLNESS OR DEATH.

This electric fireplace heater is for use on 120 volts. The cord has
a plug as shown at A in illustration below. An adapter as shown
at C is available for connecting three-blade grounding-type plugs
to two-slot receptacles. The green grounding plug extending from
the adapter must be connected to a permanent ground such as a
properly grounded outlet box. The adapter should not be used if a
three-slot grounded receptacle is available.

A 15 AMP circuit is required to operate this heater. If the breaker
trips when the heater is used then you may need to move the
heater to another location or unplug other appliances that are on
the same circuit. If you require an extension cord use one that is
rated at 1875 watts.

FIREPLACE INSERT INSTALLATION:

The fireplace insert can be installed after the mantel has been fully

the fireplace is improperly handled, but is not a substitute for proper
adult supervision. Children should not be left unattended near any
heater.

WALL ANCHOR into the hole and gently tap until the flange on
the anchor is against the wall surface.

OPERATION

MAINTENANCE

After reading complete instructions, confirm all controls on
fireplace are in the OFF position. Plug the fireplace into a
15AMP/120Volt outlet. If the cord does not reach, you may use
an extension cord rated for a minimum of 1875 WATTS. Once the
fireplace insert has been properly connected to a grounded electri­cal outlet, it is ready to operate.

OPERATION BY THE CONTROL PANEL

The controls are located behind the grill below the front glass and
can be accessed by pulling the grill from the top, forward and
down.

WARNING – DO NOT TOUCH. HOT SURFACE AT CENTRE OF
GRILL. USE LEFT OR RIGHT SIDE OF THE GRILL WHEN OPENING.

MAINTENANCE WARNING:

Disconnect power and unplug the power cord before attempting
any maintenance or cleaning to reduce the risk of fire, electric
shock or damage to persons. The bulbs in your unit can become
extremely hot. Allow at least 10 minutes between turning off the
unit and removing the light bulbs to avoid the accidental burning of
the skin.

RISK OF FIRE: Do not exceed the recommended bulb
wattage.

REPLACING THE FLAME EFFECT LIGHT AND LOG-SET
LIGHT BULBS

Step 1: Remove 12 screws on the back of fireplace and open

the rear cover. There are 2 larger screws and 10 smaller

screws.
Step 2: You will find 2 X 40W Type B-10 bulbs under log-set bed.
Step 3: Loosen and remove the burnt out bulb and replace with

new bulb.
Step 4: Close the rear cover. Secure the larger screws into the top

left corner hole and bottom right corner holes as shown

in the diagram. Secure the 10 smaller screws into the

remaining holes. Make sure the screws are in the correct

holes and have been tightened.
Step 5: Plug in the unit.

O/I: Press this button for main power and flame effect. The indica­tor light will turn on. See below for other control switches.

1250W: For heat function - Press this switch while the O/I switch
is in the ON position. The indicator light will turn ON.

Temperature Control: To adjust the temperature to your indi­vidual requirements, turn the temperature control dial to the right
(clockwise) to increase the desired temperature and to the left for
lower temperature. This temperature control dial can only be used
while the O/I switch and 1250W switch are in the ON position.
