WARNING – THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED
This heater must be used on an AC ~ supply only and the
voltage marked on the heater must correspond to the supply
voltage.
Before switching on, please read the safety warnings and
operating instructions.
In the event of replacing the fuse in the plug supplied, a 13 amp
fuse approved by ASTA to BS1362 must be used.
Using the heater
Before switching on remove the fuel effect (two screws - see
Fig. 1) and check that the lamp and flicker rotor are positioned
correctly.
The flicker rotor should sit horizontal on its pin and spin freely
without fouling its mounting brackets. If necessary, adjust the
bracket by bending slightly.
Refit the fuel effect by inserting the front edge first, then secure
with the screws. Ensure that all packing items are removed
(read any warning labels carefully) and that the radiant elements
and fuel effect are positioned correctly, otherwise damage may
occur.

Operation

When you are certain that you have completed the installation,
plug in and switch on at the wall socket.
The fuel effect will light.
The flicker rotor will begin to rotate after a minute or so.
Radiant elements
Each of the two radiant elements provides 600 watts of heat.

Maintenance

WARNING : ALWAYS DISCONNECT FROM THE POWER
SUPPLY BEFORE ATTEMPTING ANY MAINTENANCE.
Removing the guard
To remove the guard, remove the two screws along the bottom
edge of the guard, then swing the guard upwards to gain access
to the elements - see Fig. 3.
Replace the guard in reverse order.
Removing the elements
The element holders are spring loaded. To remove an element,
grip one end using a soft cloth to protect your hand and the
surface of the element, carefully but firmly push to one side
until the other end disengages from its socket. Withdraw the
element carefully - see Fig. 4. Please take care as outer seath
of element is glass. Refit in reverse order.
Cleaning the reflector
The reflector may be more easily cleaned if the elements are
first removed (see previous). Wipe the reflector with a warm
soapy cloth, then buff with a soft dry cloth - see Fig. 5.
DO NOT use abrasive cleaning powders or metal polish.
Lamp replacement
Remove the fuel effect (two screws) - see Fig. 1 and replace the
defective lamp with a 60 or 40 watt, 220/250 volt, 2 pin bayonet
cap (BC) fire glow fuel effect lamp. Ensure that the flicker rotor
spins freely, then reassemble.
