OPERATION

Figure 1
A . 3-Position Switch
The switch has two On positions marked. The " -- " position
is for manual operation. In this position the built-in remote
control is by-passed. The " = " position is for operating
the unit with the provided remote control. When in remote
control (" = ") position the unit is operated with the On and
Off buttons of the remote control.
When the switch is in the center "o" position the unit is off.
B . Heater Switch
The Heater Switch supplies power to the heater fan and the
heater element. When the switch is in the ON position the
heater operates if the thermostat calls for heat.
C . Heater Thermostat Control
To adjust the temperature to your individual requirements,
turn the thermostat control clockwise all the way to
turn on the heater. When the room reaches the desired
temperature, turn the thermostat knob counter-clockwise
until you hear a click. Leave in this position to maintain the
room temperature at this setting. For additional heat, turn
clockwise until you hear the click again and the heater will
turn on.
Resetting the Temperature Cutoff Switch
Should the heater overheat, an automatic cut out will turn
the fireplace off and it will not come back on without being
reset. It can be reset by switching the 3-Position Switch to
Off and waiting five (5) minutes before switching the unit
back on.
!
NOTE: If operating the unit with a remote control, the
remote may require re-initializing after turning the power
off.
CAUTION: If you need to continuously reset the heater,
disconnect power and call Dimplex customer service at
1-888-DIMPLEX (1-888-346-7539).

The fireplace is supplied with a radio frequency remote
control. This remote control has a range of approximately
50 feet (15.25 m), it does not have to be pointed at the
fireplace and can pass through most obstacles (including
walls). It is supplied with one of hundreds of independent
frequencies to prevent interference with other units.

the built-in receiver board will hold the memory of
the remote's radio frequency for up to 24 hours. The
remote should continue to operate the fireplace as
normal once unit is re-powered. Re-initialization of the
remote control to the fireplace should only be required
if there is a loss of power to the receiver for longer than
