6.1
OPERATING THE APPLIANCE - M M ANUAL CONTROL VERSIONS
The appliance is controlled using four switches, mounted on the side of the appliance. The left switch (OI) controls the main power to the fire
and switches on the fuel effect, which can be used independently of heat for visual effect only. The second switch (*) operates the fan blower
without heat, which can be used in the summer for cool air circulation.
The switch marked with a single bar (I) operates the fan heater on the LOW setting.
The switch marked with two bars (II) operates the fan heater on the HIGH setting.
To operate the fire, the left switch must be turned on first, followed by the second switch to start the blower, if required. To obtain heat from
the appliance, the I switch must then be operated for LOW (1kW) of heat, followed by the II switch for the HIGH setting. It is not possible to
obtain heat from the appliance without first switching on the main power switch (OI) and the fan blower switch (*) in conjunction with either
the LOW (I) or both the LOW and HIGH (II) switches.
6.2
OPERATING THE APPLIANCE - R R EMOTE CONTROL VERSIONS
The appliance is controlled by using the remote control handset provided. For the handset to operate, the stove must be switched on in 'stand-
by' mode. The main on/off (OI) switch is mounted on the side of the appliance and when in the 'on' position a neon light is visible through the
plastic diffusing screen inside the stove.
With the main on/off switch in the 'on' position the remote control handset may be used. To switch on the flame effect only press the button
marked 'FIRE ON'.
With the flame effect switched on the heater may be switched on by pressing the button marked 'ON/OFF HEAT'. This will switch the heater
on to the low heat setting. Pressing this button again will switch the heater unit off.
With the heater on low heat setting, high heat setting may be selected by pressing the button marked 'HEAT HI/LO'. Pressing this button again
will return the heater to low heat setting. Further pressing of the 'HEAT HI/LO' button will continue to switch the heater between high and low
heat settings. Pressing the 'ON/OFF HEAT' button at any time will switch the fan heater unit off altogether and return to flame effect only.
At any time the flame effect is on, the level of illumination may be adjusted by pressing the 'DIMMER' button. This will make the light source
continuously cycle between maximum and minimum. When the desired level of brightness is reached press the 'DIMMER' button again. This
setting will be stored and maintained when the flame effect is subsequently switched on and off. The brightness may be adjusted any number
of times.
At any time, pressing the button marked 'STANDBY' will switch the fan heater and/or flame effect off and return the stove to standby mode.
It is strongly recommended that when the stove is not required for use that it be switched off at this main switch to prevent accidental opera-
tion via the handset. The stove should not be left in standby mode for long periods of time.
6.3
SAFETY CUTOUT SYSTEM
This appliance has a safety cutout system fitted which will activate if the air inlets or outlets are obstructed. For safety reasons the fire will NOT
switch on again automatically, the following procedure must be carried out before the fire can be operated.

Switch OFF the appliance at t t he w w all s s ocket o o r o o utlet. Leave the fire OFF for a period of no less than 10 minutes, ensuring all obstructions are
removed. Switch the appliance ON at t t he w w all. Ensure the appliance is turned ON at the control switch(es) and handset (remote control mod-
els). If the fire fails to operate correctly, repeat the above procedure. If an attempt to switch on the appliance is made before the safety cutout
has reset, the appliance may cutout for a further period of time. If the sequence has been followed correctly and the appliance still fails to func-
tion, check the fuse in the wall outlet. If this is not the cause, call an electrician or maintenance engineer.
