If you settle this appliance in an existing chimney, we recommend that;
1. You have your chimney cleaned by a competent chimney sweep.
2. You block off the chimney flue.
This procedure is important for the efficient operation of the heating unit and will also reduce heat
loss up the chimney.
Ensure that all packing items are removed (read any warning labels carefully). Retain all packing
for possible future use e.g. in the event of moving or returning the appliance to your supplier.

The fire incorporates 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.
A fan heater can provide heating in cold weather. A distance of 1 metre (3 feet) must be maintained
between the front of the heater and any surrounding furniture, overhanging curtains or other
obstructions.
To reduce heat loss and to prevent any chimney up draft affecting the operation of your stove fire,
we recommend that the chimney flue is sealed off.
Always ensure that the appliance is sitting on a level surface.
Before connecting the appliance, check that the supply voltage is the same as that stated on the
appliance.
Please note:
Used in an environment where background noise is very low, it may be possible to
hear a sound which is related to the operation of the flame effect. This is normal and should not
be a cause for concern.
Thank you for choosing a Dimplex electric fire.
