Maintenance
General Tips
Only use filtered tap water in this appliance.
Always ensure that the appliance is sitting on a level surface.
If you intend not using the appliance for longer than 2 weeks, remove and empty the sump and water tank.
Once installed, never move this appliance or lay on its back, without draining the water from
sump and water tank.
Changing lamps
If a large amount of the smoke appears grey or colourless it may be that one or more lamps have failed.
You can check for lamp failure as follows.
1. Leaving the flame effect on, lift out the fuel-bed and water tank. (See Fig.3) and lift out the nozzle (See
Fig.4)
2. View the lamps from a distance in front of the fire and observe which lamp needs to be changed.
3. Press switch ‘A’ to off (0) position (See Fig.2), and unplug the fire from the mains.
4. Leave the appliance for 20 minutes to allow the lamps to cool down before removing them.
5. Remove the water tank by lifting upwards and place in a sink.
6. Remove the sump as described in the Cleaning Section.

Cleaning
Warning - Always press Switch A to turn off the product and disconnect the product from the
power supply before cleaning the fire. Leave the appliance for 10 minutes to allow the product

We recommend cleaning the following components once every 2 weeks, particularly in hard water
areas: Water Tank, Sump, Nozzle, Tank cap and seal, Air filter.
For general cleaning; use a soft clean duster – never use abrasive cleaners.
To remove any accumulation of dust or fluff, the soft brush attachment of a vacuum cleaner should
occasionally be used to clean the outlet grille of the fan heater.
Water Tank
1. Remove water tank, as described earlier, put into sink and empty water.
2. Using the supplied brush gently rub the inside surfaces of the cap paying particular attention to the
rubber ring in the the outer groove and the center rubber seal.
3. Put a small quantity of washing up liquid into the tank, refit the cap and shake well, rinse out until all
traces of washing up liquid are gone.
