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.
The heater is designed for use inset into a 407mm (16") or 457mm (18") wide by 559mm (22") high fireplace opening or
freestanding - see also section 'Installation Instructions' .
A 2kw fan heater is discreetly positioned in the canopy of the fire provides heating in cold weather. Switching allows half
or full heat. A distance of 1 metre (39") must be maintained between the front of the heater and any surrounding furniture,
overhanging curtains or other obstrustions.
To reduce heat loss and to prevent any chimney up draft affecting the operation of your inset fire we recommend they the
chimney flue is sealed off.
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.
