Safety Thermal Cut-out and Thermal Link:
This appliance is fitted with an Electric Safety Control (E.S.). This is a safety device, which switches off the fire if, for any reasons, the appliance overheats. The E.S.
Control can only be re-set after the appliance has cooled down, in Order to re-set the E.S. Control, proceed as follows:

  • Switch off the appliance. Unplug at wall socket and leave for approximately 15 minutes.
  • Plug in switch on appliance and the E.S. Control will re-set.
    Ensure that the appliance is functioning correctly. If the E.S. Control switches off again it is advisable to have the appliance checked by a competent electrician.

CAUTION: In order to avoid a hazard due to inadvertent resetting of the thermal cut out, this appliance must not be supplied through an external switching device, such as  a timer, or connected to a circuit that is regularly switched on and off by the utility.

Maintenance

WARNING: – Before undertaking any maintenance or cleaning, ensure appliance is disconnected from mains supply. Only competent persons should service / repair appliance.
WARNING: There are no internal user serviceable parts, i.e. bulbs, in this product. Under no circumstance should access be gained to the internal parts other than by a  suitably qualified person.
Please note: – If the supply cord on this appliance is damaged it must be replaced by the manufacturer, Authorised Service Agent, or a qualified person to avoid hazard.

General Suite Care – not glass
To maintain the appearance of you new suite we recommend that it is dusted using a lint free cloth. NEVER use any form of abrasives or a DAMP cloth on the surround.
The area around the fire should be kept free of any materials such as lint or house dust (i.e. animal hair/ carpet fibres) that could be drawn into the internal workings of the  appliance and hence affect the performance. We recommend that you clean around the fan grille housing at regular intervals. This can be done using standard vacuum cleaner and suitable attachment.

Glass Care
Periodically it may be necessary to remove the glass screen for cleaning, this is achieved by first disconnecting the appliance from the mains supply, then remove the fuel bed  by unscrewing the two screws, then remove the fuel bed brackets. Finally remove the bracket at the top of the glass by unscrewing the 3 screws whilst supporting the glass  from the front. With the bracket removed, lift the glass panel upwards and towards to remove the panel from the fire. And place in a clean, soft, safe location for cleaning.  When cleaning the glass panel use a slightly damp cloth. Do not use washing powders or any other substance containing abrasives since these substances scratch glass. Refitting is the reversal of this procedure.
