Unpack the appliance carefully and retain the packaging for possible future use, in the event of moving or returning
the fire to your supplier.
Always ensure that the appliance is sitting on a level surface.
The appliance is a flame effect only.
The appliance is designed to be built into a surround or built into a wall.
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.
Once installed, never move this appliance or lay on its back, without draining the water from sump and water tank.
Moving the product without draining it, may result in the activation of the leak prevention valve. See "Changing the
Leak Prevention Valve" paragraph below under Maintenance for further information.
The water tank, sump, sump lid, tank cap and air filters must be cleaned once every 2 weeks, particularly in hard
water areas.
If you intend not using the appliance for longer than 2 weeks, drain the water from sump and water tank and dry the
sump.
The sump and the water tank in this product are treated with a biocidal product, Silver Biocide. This conforms to the
latest relevant ISO standard.
As this product contains and utilises water as an aspect of its operation, the adherence to the cleaning requirement
as detailed within the instructions is necessary to ensure that risk/s through bacterial proliferation are minimised. It is
additionally recommended that if this unit is connected to a water supply, that it becomes included within any Legionel-
la assessment. Please refer to the Maintenance section in the following instruction booklet for details on the cleaning
requirements for your product.

Installation Instructions

This section describes how to install and set up your fire.
Before you start:
Ensure that all packing items are removed (read any warning labels carefully) and retain all packing for possible future
use.
Before connecting the appliance, check that the supply voltage is the same as that stated on the appliance.
CONNECTIONS REQUIRED IN ADVANCE OF INSTALLATION
Electrical Connection
Please ensure a 230V / 16A power socket is located within 1m of the product.
Water Connection
Please ensure a water connection is located within 1m of the product. The water connection should be one of the
following:
A male ¾ inch BSP connection (same as a standard supply for a washing machine)
A male ½ inch BSP connection (Fig 5.1)
Both the water and electrical connections should be accessible during product installation so that the connections can
be made to the product easily.
BUILDING THE PRODUCT SURROUND/ENCLOSURE
This product can be built into a wall, surround or structure. Please take note of the product dimensions (Fig.1) and build
your wall, surround or structure accordingly. Suitable clearance should be provided to allow the product to be installed
easily.
You are required to leave a minimum of 400mm from the base of the fuel bed to any shelf/enclosure above the product
(Fig. 2). This will allow enough space above the product to allow the flame effect to form fully and not to be obstructed.
When determining a location for the product, ensure that the unit will not be susceptible to drafts, vents, ceiling fans and
other air currents. Similar to a candle, large movements of air will affect the unit's ability to create and maintain the flame
effect. If the desired location is susceptible to significant air movement, i.e. air vents, the different installation options
illustrated in Fig 2 can be used.
