WARNING: KEEP BATTERIES OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN

• Swallowing may lead to serious injury in as little as 2 hours or death, due to chemical burns and potential perforation of the oesophagus.
• If you suspect your child has swallowed or inserted a button battery immediately call the 24-hour Poisons Information Centre on 13 11 26 (in Australia) or 0800 764 766 (in New Zealand) for fast, expert advice.
• Examine devices and make sure the battery compartment is correctly secured, e.g. that the screw or other mechanical fastener is tightened. Do not use if the compartment is not secure.
• Dispose of used button batteries immediately and safely. Flat batteries can still be dangerous.

CAUTION: No obvious symptoms
Unfortunately, it is not obvious when a button or coin battery is stuck in a child’s oesophagus (food pipe).
There are no specific symptoms associated with this. The child might:

• cough, gag or drool a lot
• appear to have a stomach upset or virus
• be sick
• point to their throat or stomach
• have a pain in their abdomen, chest or throat
• be tired or lethargic
• be quieter or more clingy than usual or otherwise ‘not themselves’
• lose their appetite or have a reduced appetite
• not want to eat solid food/be unable to eat solid food
  These types of symptoms vary or fluctuate. with the pain increasing and then subsiding.
  A specific symptom to button and coin battery ingestion is vomiting fresh (bright red) blood. If the child does this seek immediate help. The lack of clear symptoms is why it is important to be vigilant with ‘flat’ or spare button or
  coin batteries in the home and the products that contain them.
  

Specifications

Rating Label Location

Setup

Operating Temperature
-20°-40°C
Fixed Wiring
In some jurisdictions this appliance is supplied without a plug. This is to comply with local regulations. In such instances, this appliance must be installed by a suitably qualified installer and the means for disconnection must be  incorporated in the fixed wiring in accordance to the local wiring rules.
WARNING: Electrical outlet wiring must comply with local building codes and other applicable regulations to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock or injury.
Note: A 10Amp circuit is required. A dedicated circuit is preferred, but not essential in all cases. A dedicated circuit will be required if, after installation, the circuit breaker trips or the fuse blows on a regular basis when the heater is  operating. Additional appliances on the same circuit may exceed the current rating of the circuit breaker.
Unpacking the Unit
The unit comes packed with a protective sheet covering the front of the unit. This sheet is intended to prevent dust and debris from entering during construction. This sheet is designed so that it can be partially removed to complete the  wiring and unpacking and can be reinstalled until the final installation is complete.
The log set was installed on the grate and the grate permanently fixed to the firebox at the factory.
Carefully remove the packaging from around the log set. Make sure the wires from the log set are connected securely to the grate box.
CAUTION: The Realogs contain LEDs to create a unique pulse and glow effect. Handle the log set carefully. They are fragile and can crack or break if dropped.
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. 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.
WARNING: In order to avoid a 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 circuit that is regularly switched on  and off by the utility.
