Operation
The controls are located behind the hinged ‘ash pan ‘flap – see Fig.3.
A switch Is in the ‘ON’ position when the red indicator mark of the switch is
visible.
Connect the fire to your electricity supply.
Flame Effect
Press switch ‘ ****‘ to the ‘ON’ position. The flame effect will now operate.
Heating unit
You have a choice of low heat (1 kW) or high heat (2kW) output.
Both settings have thermostat temperature control.
In order to operate the heating, switch ‘ ****‘ must be in the ‘ON’ position
-see Fig. 4.
Low heat setting
With switch ‘ ****‘ in the ‘ON’ position, press switch to ‘ON’.
The 1 kW heat output is controlled by the thermostat, which should be set to
maximum (see ‘Thermostat operation’).
High heat setting
With switches ‘ **‘ and’ in the ‘ON’ position, press switch ”to ‘ON’.
The 2kW heat output is controlled by the thermostat, which should be set to
maximum (see ‘Thermostat operation’).
Thermostat operation**
The thermostat controls the heat output according to the room temperature.
This ensures that the heater will not produce heat unnecessarily when the room
is warm.
To set the temperature you require, turn the thermostat knob fully
clockwise,.. to ‘max’ position. When the room is warm enough, turn the knob
back slowly until the thermostat just clicks off. The heater will now maintain
your selected temperature.
Thermal safety cut-out
A thermal safety cut-out is incorporated in the heater to prevent damage due
to overheating.
This can happen if the heat outlet were restricted in any way. The heater will
switch on once the obstruction has been removed and the heater has cooled. If
the cut-out continues to operate intermittently, the heater should be switched
off and a service agent contacted.
