Locating the Appliance
Your new electric fireplace may be installed virtually anywhere in your home.
However, when choosing a location please ensure that the general instructions
are followed.
5.1 For best results, install out of direct sunlight.
5.2 The appliance should be connected to an earthed electrical outlet and it
must be easily accessible to allow disconnection.
5.3 If installing in an existing fireplace and chimney always block the
chimney with fibreglass insulation or similar, to prevent it sucking air away
through the appliance. Failure to do this may cause poor performance and loss
of heat or make the appliance cut out.

is in operation. The E.S. Control can only be reset after the appliance has
cooled down, and the appliance has been reset. Resetting of the E.S. Control
proceeds is as follows:
6b.34 Switch off the appliance (Manual On / Off switch) and leave it off for
approximately 10-15 minutes.
