General
Unpack the heater carefully and retain the packaging for possible future use,
in the event of moving or returning the fire to your supplier.
These models are designed to be free standing and are normally positioned
against a wall.
The fire incorporates a flame effect, which can be used with or without
heating, so that the comforting effect may be enjoyed at any time of the year.
Using the flame effect on its own only requires little electricity.
A choice of 1kW or 2kW heat output is provided by the fan heater, which is
located at the bottom of the unit.
Before connecting the heater check that the supply voltage is the same as that
stated on the heater.
On the Springborne model loose coals are packed separately within the carton.
When the heater is assembled the coals can be placed on top of the fuel bed,
as required.
Please note: Used in an environment where background noise is very low, it may
be possible to hear a sound which is related to the operation of the flame
effect. This is normal and should not be a cause for concern.
