Important Safety Advice
When using electrical appliances, basic precautions should
always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electrical
shock, and injury to persons, including the following:
If the appliance is damaged, check with the supplier before
installation and operation.
Do not use outdoors.
Do not use in the immediate surroundings of a bath, shower
or swimming pool.
Do not locate the heater immediately below a fixed socket
outlet or connection box.
Do not cover the heater. Do not place material or garments
on the heater, or obstruct the air circulation around the
heater, for instance by curtains or furniture, as this could
cause overheating and a fire risk.
This appliance is not intended for use by children or other
persons without assistance or supervision if their physical,
sensory or mental capabilities prevent them from using it
safely. Children should be supervised to ensure that they
do not play with the appliance.
Do not use this heater in series with a thermal control, a
program controller, a timer or any other device that
switches on the heat automatically, since a fire risk exists
when the heater is accidentally covered or displaced.
Ensure that furniture, curtains or other combustible
material are positioned no closer than 1 metre from the
heater.
In the event of a fault unplug the heater.
Unplug the heater when not required for long periods.
Although this heater complies with safety standards, we
do not recommend its use on deep pile carpets or on long
hair type of rugs.
The appliance must be positioned so that the plug is
accessible.
If the supply cord is damaged it must be replaced by the
manufacturer or service agent or a similarly qualified
person in order to avoid a hazard.
Keep the supply cord away from the front of the heater.
General
Unpack the heater carefully and retain the packaging for possible
future use, in the event of moving or returning the fire 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. Using the flame effect on its own only
requires little electricity.
Before connecting the heater check that the supply voltage is the
same as that stated on the heater.
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.
Electrical connection
WARNING – THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED
This heater must be used on an AC ~ supply only and the voltage
marked on the heater must correspond to the supply voltage.
Before switching on, please read the safety warnings and
operating instructions.
In the event of replacing the fuse in the plug supplied, a 13 amp
fuse approved by ASTA to BS1362 must be used.
Wall Fixing - see Fig. 1
The appliance should be securely fixed to the wall using the wall
plugs and screws supplied for block walls.
Both the horizontal wall bracket and the safety fixing at the base of
the appliance must be used.
Note - for studded walls special fasteners are required, see diagram
for recommended position of fixing screws.
Controls - see Fig. 4
Three switches provide a choice of heat settings. The appliance is in
standby mode when the mains lead is plugged in. The two selector
switches are in the ON position when the side with the markings on
(i.e. I, or II) are pushed in.
Stand-by Switch 1 Controls the electricity supply to the heater
and flame effect.
(Remote Control - 1/0) Press once to operate the product and press
again to return to 'Standby' mode
(Alternatively use the RemoteControl). If both
selector switches 2 and 3 are in the OFF
position, the product works on flame effect
only.
Selector Switch 2 (I) Provides 1kW heat output.
Selector Switch 3 (II) Provides 2kW output when Switch 2 and
Switch 3 are used together.
Thermostat (T) - see Fig.4
In order to maintain a certain room temperature, set the controller to
‘max.’. Operate the appliance at full power until the required room
temperature is reached. Set back the thermostatic controller until the
appliance switches off with an audible “click”. This temperature will be
kept almost constant by the thermostatic control switching on and off
automatically. Please note that the appliance can only be switched on
when thethermostat setting is higher than the room temperature.
Remote Control - see Fig. 5
The maximum range of use is ~ 15metres.
Warning: It takes time for the receiver to respond to the transmitter.
Do not press the buttons more than once within two seconds for
correct operation.
Battery Information - see Fig.5
1. Slide open the battery cover on the back of the remote control.
2. Install AAA batteries into the remote control.
3. Replace the battery cover.
Discard leaky batteries
Dispose of batteries in the proper manner according to provincial and
local regulations. Any battery may leak electrolyte if mixed with a different
battery type, if inserted incorrectly, if all the batteries are not replaced
at the same time, if disposed of in a fire, or if an attempt is made to
charge a battery not intended to be recharged.
