Operation Manual

BASIC HEATER OPERATION

TURNING ON THE POWER

To reset the heater, press the On/Off button 

 once. Press the STANDBY/ON button 

 a second time to switch

the heater on.

USING THE REMOTE CONTROL TO OPERATE THE HEATER 

Press the On/Off button 

 located on the heater control panel once. The Operation

Indicator 

 will illuminate and glow ‘BLUE’ and the ignition process will commence.

The heater will continue to operate in the automatic mode to achieve and maintain a default
temperature setting of 22°C until an alternate command is received from the remote control.

If the main power is disrupted whilst the heater is operating, once the power is restored the
heater will go into power failure mode.

This is indicated by a pair of flashing zeros in the Error Display 

 window and a ‘RED’

flashing Operation Indicator 

.

To operate the heater in automatic mode without using the remote control, press the main power
switch ON the heater OFF and then on again. The heater will operate with a default set temperature
of 22°C.

If the heater is turned off using the On/Off button 

 

on the heater control panel when it is turned

back on it will loose all timer and clock settings until the remote control is used to re-transmit this
information.

DO NOT unplug the main power supply to extinguish the flames as this may cause damage. The
convection fan is required to continue operation for several minutes after extinction of the flames
to assist cooling.

The remote control uses 2 x 1.5V AAA batteries (NEVER mix old and new batteries).

Remove batteries if the remote control is not going to be used for a long period. This will help avoid
damage from leaking batteries.

To replace batteries simply unscrew the battery compartment cover located on the back of the
remote control anti-clockwise. When installing new batteries ensure that the correct polarity is
observed, the polarity is engraved into the battery compartment (see the illustration on page 6).

Turning The Heater On

When the heater is in standby mode (Operation Indicator 

 illuminated ‘RED’) pressing the

STANDBY/ON button 

 will start the ignition sequence and the Operation Indicator 

will glow ‘BLUE’ to indicate that the heater is now in operation.

Turning The Heater To Stand-By

Press the STANDBY/ON button 

. This will extinguish all flames and the Operation

Indicator 

 will glow ‘RED’ to indicate the appliance is now in stand-by mode.

Adjusting The Temperature

When in automatic mode, pressing the Up and Down buttons 

 will change the pre-set

temperature by increments of 1°C with each press. 

"Temperature" 

 will be displayed to confirm that the function has been initiated. The

Remote Display will show the selected temperature 

 in degrees °C.

The Temperature Can Be Pre-set To:

A.

L (Low) 

– Continuous combustion on low.

B.

16°C ~ 26°C (in 1°C steps)

 – Thermostatic control to pre-set temperature selected.

Combustion rate varies to maintain the selected temperature.

C.

H (High)

 – Continuous combustion on high.
