Control Knob 'C':- Controls the intensity of the flame effect.
Turning the control knob up increases the flame effect,
turning the control knob down will decrease the flame
effect.
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 flames 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 effect.
The remote control functions are as follows:
Press once to turn on Flame effect only.
This will be indicated by one beep.

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 different
battery type, if inserted incorrectly, if all the batteries are
not replaced at the same time, if disposed of in a fire, or if
an attempt is made to charge a battery not intended to be
recharged.
Tips for using your appliance.
1. Only pull out the drawer when its time to refill the water
tank or change a lamp, otherwise it may lead to excess water
in the sump and reduced flame effect. If this happens empty
the water from the sump as instructed under 'Maintenance' .
2. With the flame 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 flame setting.
3. Do not tilt or move the fire while there is water in the tank
or sump.
4. Make sure that the fire is on a level floor.
5. The flame control knob 'C' (Fig.2) may be turned up or down
to give a more realistic effect.
6. Sometimes the flames appear more real when the flame
control knob is turned down.
7. Give the flame generator some time to react to changes you
may make on the flame control knob.
Maintenance
WARNING: ALWAYS DISCONNECT FROM THE POWER
SUPPLY BEFORE ATTEMPTING ANY MAINTENANCE
Changing lamps.
If a large amount of the smoke appears grey or colourless it
may be that one or more lamps have failed.
You can check for lamp failure as follows.
1. Leaving the flame effect on, open the drawers fully, gently
pull the drawer fully out by the tab. (See Fig.3)
2. View the lamps from a distance in front of the fire and
observe which lamp needs to be changed.
3. Put Switch 'A' in the 'OFF' position, and unplug the fire from
the mains.
4. Leave the appliance for 20 minutes to allow the lamps to
cool down before removing them.
5. Remove the water tank by lifting upwards and place in a
sink.
6. Remove the sump as described in the Cleaning Section.
7. Remove the defective lamp, by gently lifting vertically and
disengaging the pins from the lamp holder, (See Fig.4 and 5).
Replace with an original, 12V, 50W, Gu5.3 base, 8º beam angle,
coloured lamp. Purchase the lamps from your supplier
8. Carefully insert the two pins of the new lamp into the two
holes in the lamp holder. Push firmly in place. (See Fig.4 and
5).
9. Replace the sump and water tank and carefully close the
drawer.
10. Switch on.
Filling the water tank.
When the water tank is empty, flame and smoke effect shuts
off, and you will hear 2 audible 'beeps' . Follow these steps to
refill:
1. Press Switch 'A' to (0). (See Fig.2)
2. Pull out the drawer as far as possible by the tab. (See Fig.3)
3. Remove the water tank by lifting upwards and outwards.
4. Place the water tank in sink and remove cap, Anti-clockwise
to open. (See Fig.6)
5. Fill tank with tap water with a maximum hardness of 10
dH only. This is necessary to prolong the life of the flame and
smoke producing unit.
In situations with a higher water hardness, the water should
be filtered (for example with a Maxtra filter). Do not use a
decalcifier.
6. Screw the cap back on, do not overtighten.
7. Return the tank to the sump, with the tank cap facing down
and the flat side of the tank facing outward.

control section and Fig.2).
9. Press Switch 'A' to 'ON' ( I ) position. (See Fig.2)
10. Gently push the drawer back in as far as it will go.
Cleaning.
WARNING – ALWAYS DISCONNECT FROM THE POWER
SUPPLY BEFORE CLEANING THE FIRE.
We recommend cleaning the following components once
every 2 weeks, particularly in hard water areas:-
Water Tank, Sump and Seal, Sump lid, Tank cap and seal, Air
filter.
For general cleaning use a soft clean duster – never use abrasive
cleaners. To remove any accumulation of dust or fluff the soft
brush attachment of a vacuum cleaner should occasionally be
used to clean the outlet grille of the fan fire.
Water tank
1. Remove water tank, as described earlier, put into sink and
empty water.
2. Using the supplied brush gently rub the inside surfaces of
the cap paying particular attention to the rubber ring in the
outer groove and the centre rubber seal.
