Dimplex Optimyst Fire Quick Start Manual

Maintaining your
Optimyst Fire
Carry out some simple, regular maintenance on your
Optimyst fire by cleaning the transducer and water
bottle with warm water.
Use filtered water wherever possible – lime scale in hard
water areas will stop the transducer working.
Only use the water tank provided to refill the sump unit.
Remind the customer to register for their additional
warranty at dimplex.co.uk/register.
Don't allow the water to stand, unused in the fire for
more than two weeks.
Don't use de-ionised water

Troubleshooter
The Stove door is misting up.
Sometimes on start up the stove door can mist up. This will
stop when the temperature of the stove rises. You can resolve
this by opening the stove door slightly and turning the flame
effect down.
The light comes on but there is no flame effect?
Check that the transducer is sat correctly in the sump unit
and the wires are connected. If they are and your flame
effect doesn't work, you will require a new transducer.
The flame effect is beginning to look dull?
Check that all of the lamps are illuminated and clean. If any
lamps are off, check that they are fitted properly. If they
remain off, they will need to be replaced. For replacement
bulbs, please contact Dimplex.
No Heat: (No heat from electric fire).
Your thermostat may be set too high - therefore the electric
fire thinks the room temperature is adequate and that no
heat is needed.
Depending on the model you have:-
Turn the electric fire ON by pressing the on/standby button.
Press the M (Mode Button) until the display reads °C
- this is the thermostat setting.
Using the + button increase the temperature to its highest setting.
Now, using the Mode button select the HEAT setting
and press the + button to turn the heater on.
Turn thermostat control knob to the right to increase the
temperature setting
