Important Safety Advice

When using electrical appliances, basic precautions
should be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric
shock, and injury to persons, including the following:
If the appliance is damaged, check immediately with the
supplier before installation and operation.
Do not use this heater in the immediate surroundings
of a bath, shower or swimming pool
Do not use outdoors.
This heater must not be located immediately above or
below a fixed socket outlet or connection box.
Do not cover or obstruct in any way the heat outlet grille
located underneath the heater. Overheating will result if
the heater is accidentally covered.
In the event of a fault unplug the heater.
Unplug the heater when not required for long periods.
The supply cord must be placed on the right hand side
of the heater away from the heat outlet underneath the
heater.
Although this heater complies with safety standards, we
do not recommend its use on deep pile carpets or on
long hair type of rugs.
This appliance is not intended for use by children or other
persons without assistance or supervision if their
physical, sensory or mental capabilities prevent them
from using it safely. Children should be supervised to
ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
The appliance must be positioned so that the plug is
accessible.
If the supply cord is damaged it must be replaced by the
manufacturer or service agent or similarly qualified
person in order to avoid a hazard.
Caution: In order to avoid a hazard due to inadvertent
resetting of the thermal cut-out, this appliance must not
be supplied through an external switching device, such
as a timer, or connected to a circuit that is regularly
switched on and off by the utility.
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.
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.
Before connecting the heater check that the supply voltage is
the same as that stated on the heater.
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.

Electrical connection

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.

fire is securely fixed to the wall.
IT IS IMPORTANT THAT THE FIXING DEVICE CHOSEN IS
APPROPRIATE TO THE WALL MATERIAL TO WHICH THE FIRE

the room.
2. Mark the desired location for the new support structure in the
room and store the fire in a safe, dry and dust free location.
3. Using timber studs to support the fire, devise and construct
a suitable means of supporting the product within the wall
partition and provide electrical power for the fire to be HARD
wired. For recommended sizes of height, width and depth of
opening for recess and hole fixing dimensions for each
model
