Important Safety Advice:
When using electrical appliances, basic precautions should always be followed to reduce the
risk of fi re, 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 fi re immediately below a fi xed socket outlet or connection box.
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 fi re in series with a thermal control, a program controller, a timer or any
other device that switches on the heat automatically, since a fi re risk exists when the fi re is
accidentally covered or displaced.
Ensure that furniture, curtains or other combustible material are positioned no closer than 1
metre from the fi re.
In the event of a fault unplug the fi re.
Unplug the fi re when not required for long periods.
Although this fi re 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 qualifi ed person in order to avoid a hazard.
Keep the supply cord away from the front of the fi re.
WARNING: In order to avoid overheating, do not cover the fi re. Do not place material or
garments on the fi re, or obstruct the air circulation around the fi re.
The fi re carries the Warning symbol indicating that it must not be covered.
General.
Unpack the fi re carefully and retain the packaging for possible future use, in the event of moving or
returning the fi re to your supplier. The Remote Control and batteries are packed separately in the
carton.
The fi re incorporates a fl ame eff ect, which can be used with or without heating, so that the comforting
eff ect may be enjoyed at any time of the year. Using the fl ame eff ect on its own only requires little
electricity.
This model is designed to be installed in a surround or into a wall recess.
Before connecting the fi re check that the supply voltage is the same as that stated on the fi re.
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 fl ame eff ect. This is normal and should not be a cause
for concern.
Electrical connection.
WARNING – THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.
This fi re must be used on an AC ~ supply only and the voltage marked on the fi re must correspond to
the supply voltage.
Before switching on, please read the safety warnings and operating instructions.
PLEASE RETAIN THIS USER'S GUIDE FOR FUTURE REFERENCE
Do not put plastic components into a dishwasher.
Only slide out the drawer when the water tank needs to be fi lled or a lamp needs to be changed
otherwise you will inadvertently alter the water level and the fl ame eff ect operation.
Only use tap water in this appliance with a maximum hardness of 10 dH.
Always ensure that the fi re is sitting on a level fl oor.
If you intend not using the appliance for longer than 2 weeks, drain the water from sump and
water tank and dry the sump.
Once installed, never move this fi re or lay on its back, without draining the water from sump

lamps'.
Installation Instructions
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.
To reduce heat losses and to prevent any chimney updraught aff ecting the operation of your
fi re we recommend that the chimney fl ue is blocked off , ensure that there is a slight gap for
ventilation.
To install the appliance;
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 switching on the appliance, please read the following instructions.
Before using the manual controls fi rstly fi ll the water tank (See 'Maintenance' , 'Filling the water
tank').
Manual Controls.
The manual controls are located behind the drawer.
(See Fig.2 for Manual Control lay out)
Switch 'A':- Controls the electricity supply to the fi re.
Note: This switch must be in the 'ON' ( I ) position for the fi re 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 to put fi re in to standby mode.
This will be indicated by one beep.
Control Knob 'C':- Controls the intensity of the fl ame eff ect.
Turning the control knob clockwise increases the fl ame eff ect, turning the control knob anti-
clockwise will decrease the fl ame eff ect.
When the water tank 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 2 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.
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 is restricted in any way. If the cut-out operates, unplug the fi re from the
socket outlet and allow approximately 10 minutes before reconnecting. Before switching the fi re back
on remove any obstruction that may be restricting the heat outlet, then continue normal operation.
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.
3. Do not tilt or move the fi re while there is water in the tank or sump.
4. Make sure that the fi re is on a level fl oor.
5. The fl ame control knob 'C' (Fig.2) may be turned up or down to give a more realistic eff ect.
6. Sometimes the fl ames appear more real when the fl ame control knob is turned down.
7. Give the fl ame generator some time to react to changes you may make on the fl ame control knob.
