Faber 3 Step Mode D'emploi page 22

This procedure is important for the effi cient operation of the
heating unit and will also reduce heat loss up the chimney.
Installation.
Ensure that all packing items are removed (read any
warning labels carefully).
Retain all packing for possible future use, in the event of
moving or returning the appliance to your supplier.
Under the appliance there are four adjustable supports
provided for levelling, where the base of the fi replace opening
is raised above the level of the hearth.
You are now ready to install the electric fi re. Make sure the unit
is switched OFF.
Using the correct fi xings for your wall fi x the wall bracket to
the wall. With two persons hold the fi re by the sides and gently
manoeuvre into position. Plug the fi re into a 13amp/240 volt
outlet. Ensure that the supply cable exits at the front of the
fi re, at the right or left hand corner to suit your supply socket
location and is not trapped under the fi re such that it might
cause it to be damaged.
Before using the manual controls fi rstly fi ll the water tank
(See 'Maintenance' , 'Filling the water tank').
Manual Controls.
The Opti-myst Manual controls are located behind the drawer
front. Slide out the drawer to access the controls. (See Fig. 2 for
Manual Control lay out)
Switch 'A':- Controls the electricity supply to the heater.
Note: This switch must be in the 'ON' ( I ) position for the heater
to operate with or without heat.
Switch 'B':- Controls the function of the fi re.
Press once to turn on fl ame eff ect. This will be indicated
by one beep.
Although the main lights operate immediately it will take a
further 30 seconds before the fl ame eff ect starts.
Press it again to give fl ame eff ect and heat. This will be
indicated by two beeps.
Press it again to return to fl ame eff ect only.
This will be indicated by one beep.
Press to put fi re in to standby mode.
This will be indicated by one beep.
Switch 'C':- Controls the mist extractor motor.
There are two speeds for the mist extractor motor, low and
high. This function is required to eliminate concensation on
the glass. When the unit is switched on the mist extractor
motor will run at high speed for 1 minute and then will default
to the switch setting.
Thumb Wheel 'D':- Controls the mist output.
Pressing the wheel up will increase the ammount of mist
produced and pressing the wheel down decreaces the
ammount of mist produced.
Note: Should condendsation occure on the glass, simply turn
down the mist and switch the mist estractor motor to high
speed until the concensation has been eliminated.
When the water is empty the main lamps go out. See
instructions under 'Maintenance' , 'Filling the water tank' . When
this procedure is complete, the main lamps will illuminate but
it will take 30 seconds before the fl ames return.
Remote Control Operation
On the control panel, Switch A (see Fig. 2) must be in the 'ON' ( I
) position in order for the remote control to operate. There are 3
buttons on the remote control. (See Fig. 7)
To operate correctly the remote must be pointed towards the
front fuel eff ect.
The remote control functions are as follows:
Press once to turn on Flame eff ect only.
This will be indicated by one beep.
Press once to turn on Heat and Flame eff ect.
This will be indicated by two beeps.
Standby
This will be indicated by one beep.
Battery Information.
1. Unclip the battery cover on the back of the remote control.
(See Fig. 7)
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 diff erent
battery type, if inserted incorrectly, if all the batteries are
not replaced at the same time, if disposed of in a fi re, or if
an attempt is made to charge a battery not intended to be
recharged.
Thermal safety cut-out
A thermal safety cut-out is incorporated in the fan heater to
prevent damage due to overheating. This can happen if the
heat outlet was restricted in any way or if the chimney fl ue has
not been blocked off eff ectively. If the cut-out operates, unplug
the heater from the socket outlet and allow approximately 10
minutes before reconnecting. Before switching the heater
back on remove any obstruction that may be restricting the
heat outlet, then continue normal operation.
Caution: In order to avoid hazard due to inadvertent resetting
of the thermal cutout, this appliance must not be supplied
through an external switching device, such as a timer, or
connected to a switch that is regularly switched on and off by
the utility.
This heater is not equipped with a device to control the room
temperature. Do not use this heater in small rooms when they
are occupied by persons not capable of leaving the room on
their own, unless constant supervision is provided
Tips for using your appliance.
1. Only pull out the drawer when its time to refi ll the water
tank or change a lamp, otherwise it may lead to excess
water in the sump and reduced fl ame eff ect. If this happens
empty the water from the sump as instructed under
'Maintenance' .
2. With the fl ame setting on minimum the unit will use
approximately 40ml of water per hour and will last 3 times
as long than when it is at maximum fl ame setting.
