Flame and Low Heat; and Flame with High Heat.
F. Manual Selection Switch

functions.
NOTE: The heater may emit a slight, harmless odor when
first used. This odor is a normal condition caused by
initial heating of internal heater parts and will not occur
again.
Resetting The Temperature Cutoff Switch
This unit is equipped with a thermostat which controls the
temperature of the room. It does this by turning the
heater on and off. The heater is protected with a safety
device to prevent overheating. Should the heater overheat,
an automatic cut out will turn the heater off and it will come
back on when temperature reaches its safety setting.
Manual Selection Switch (FIGURE 3)
The Manual Selection Switch operates the fireplace levels
sequentially, flame only to flame and low heat, to flame and
high heat. The level is increased every time the " I " side of
the switch is pressed. The fireplace can be turned off at any
point by pressing the " II " side of the switch.
