IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS
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 think batteries might have been swallowed or placed inside any part of the body seek immediate
medical attention · 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 a 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; and · not want to eat solid food/be unable to eat solid food. These sorts 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 medical 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.

Operation

General Operation

WARNING: This electric firebox must be properly installed before it is used.
This firebox operates with Comfort$averTM technology, which automatically adjusts the fan speed and heater wattage to safely and precisely match the requirements of the room based on the thermostat setting. The heater operates such that once the room reaches the set point, the fan and heater will continuously run at a low level, to maintain the desired room temperature. If the temperature in the room rises significantly, the heater will turn off and periodically turn back on to circulate the air around the unit, until the room temperature drops and requires the heater to be on again.
! NOTE: The element retains heat after shutdown. When the heat is turned off, there is a two-minute cool down
period before the fan shuts off completely.
! NOTE: The fireplace will retain the previously used settings after a power interruption.

Hidden Touch Controls

The hidden touch controls are located on the upper right of the fireplace. (Figure 24)

Remote Operation

The fireplace is supplied with a multifunction IR remote control. (Figure 25)
! NOTE: To operate correctly, the remote control must be pointed toward the front of the unit.

App

The fireplace is capable of being controlled using the Flame Connect app for mobile devices. For up-to-date information about the app, please visit www.dimplex.com/fcapp

Resetting the Temperature Cutoff Switch

Maintenance

Remote Control Battery Replacement

Figure 26

To replace the battery:

1. Remove battery cover of the remote control using a Philips screwdriver.

2. Correctly install one 3 Volt (CR2032 [longer life] or CR2025) battery in the battery holder with the + side facing up.

3. Secure the battery cover using the previously removed screw.

Battery must be recycled or disposed of properly. Check with your Local Authority or Retailer for recycling advice in your area.

WARNING: Disconnect power and allow heater to cool before attempting any maintenance or cleaning to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock or injury to persons.

Partially Reflective Glass Cleaning The partially reflective glass is cleaned in the factory during the assembly operation. During shipment, installation, handling, etc., the partially reflective glass may collect dust particles; these can be removed by dusting lightly with a clean dry cloth. To remove fingerprints or other marks, the partially reflective glass can be cleaned with a damp cloth. The partially reflective glass should be completely dried with a lint-free cloth to prevent water spots. To prevent scratching, do not use abrasive cleaners.
Fireplace Surface Cleaning Use only a damp cloth to clean painted surfaces of the fireplace. Do not use abrasive cleaners.
The fireplace should not be operated with an accumulation of dust or dirt on or in the unit, as this can cause a buildup of heat and eventual damage. For this reason the heater must be inspected regularly, depending upon conditions and at a minimum yearly intervals.
Servicing Except for installation and cleaning described in this manual, an authorized service representative should perform any other servicing.
