• Unplug the appliance when not required for long periods.
• This product is only intended for indoor residential applications only.
• DO NOT cover the cord with carpeting, throw rugs, runners, or similar coverings.
• DO NOT route the cord under furniture or appliances. Take care to position the cord away from traffic areas and where it will not be a tripping hazard.
• This appliance must not be used in a bathroom.
• Although this appliance complies with safety standards, we do not recommend its use on deep-pile carpets or on long-haired rugs.
• The appliance must be positioned so that the plug is accessible.
• If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, service agent, or a similarly qualified person to avoid a hazard.
• Keep the supply cord away from the front of the appliance.
• Do not use this heater in small rooms when they are occupied by persons not capable of leaving the room on their own, unless constant supervision is provided.
• To avoid overheating, DO NOT COVER the appliance. Do not place material or garments on the appliance, or obstruct the air circulation around the appliance, for instance by curtains or furniture, as this could cause overheating and a fire risk.
• This heater carries the warning symbol indicating that it must not be covered.
• 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.
• CAUTION: Some parts of this product can become very hot and cause burns. Particular attention has to be given where children and vulnerable people are present.
• Children shall not turn on/off the appliance.
• Ensure that furniture, curtains, or other combustible material are positioned no closer than 1 metre from the appliance.
• Unplug the appliance when not required for long periods.

WARNING: KEEP BATTERIES OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN

• Swallowing may lead to serious injury in as little as 2 hours or death, due to chemical burns and potential perforation of the oesophagus.
• If you suspect your child has swallowed or inserted a button battery, immediately call the 24-hour Poisons Information Centre on 13 11 26 (in Australia) or 0800 764 766 (in New Zealand) for fast, expert advice.
• Examine devices and make sure the battery compartment is correctly secured, e.g., that the screw or other mechanical fastener is tightened. Do not use if the compartment is not secure.
• Dispose of used button batteries immediately and safely. Flat batteries can still be dangerous.

CAUTION: No obvious symptoms

Unfortunately, it is not obvious when a button or coin battery is stuck in a child’s oesophagus (food pipe). There are no specific symptoms associated with this. The child might:

• cough, gag, or drool a lot
• appear to have stomach upset or a virus
• be sick
• point to their throat or stomach
• have pain in their abdomen, chest, or throat
• be tired or lethargic
• be quieter or more clingy than usual or otherwise “not themselves.”
• lose their appetite or have a reduced appetite
• not want to eat solid food/be unable to eat solid food

These types of symptoms vary or fluctuate, with the pain increasing and then subsiding. A specific symptom of button and coin battery ingestion is vomiting fresh (bright red) blood. If the child does this, seek immediate help. The lack of clear symptoms is why it is important to be vigilant with “flat” or spare button or coin batteries in the home and the products that contain them.

Thermal Safety Cut-out

The built-in overheat cut-out switches off the appliance automatically in the event of a fault. If this occurs, switch off the appliance or disconnect the mains plug from the socket. After a short cooling-down phase, the appliance is ready for use again. If the fault should occur again, see your local dealer.

WARNING: 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.

Setup & Product Dimensions

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 choice of 750W or 1.5kW heat output is provided by the fan heater, which is located at the top of the unit. 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 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.

CAUTION: Except for installation and cleaning described in this manual, an authorized service representative should perform any other servicing.

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.

Light Emitting Diode

This fire is fitted with LED (Light Emitting Diode) bulbs in place of traditional incandescent bulbs. These generate the same light levels as traditional bulbs, but use a fraction of the energy consumed. These LED lamps are maintenance-free and should not require replacement during the life of the product.

Operation

Controls

The switches provide a choice of heat settings. The appliance is in standby mode when the mains lead is plugged in. This is indicated by the red neon behind the flame effect screen. The two selector switches are in the ON position when the side with the markings on (i.e., I or II) is pushed.

1. Selector switch 1 (0) – Controls the electricity supply to the appliance and flame effect. Press for “ON” & “Standby”. If both selector switches 2 and 3 are in the OFF position, the product works on flame effect only.
2. Selector switch 2 (I) – Provides 750W heat output.
3. Selector switch 3 (II) – Provides 1.5kW output with switch 2 also pressed.

Thermostat (T)

In order to maintain a certain room temperature, set the controller to “max.” Operate the appliance at full power until the required room temperature is reached. Set back the thermostatic controller until the appliance switches off with an audible “click”. This temperature will be kept almost constant by the thermostatic control, switching on and off automatically. Please note that the appliance can only be switched on when the thermostat setting is higher than the room temperature.

Remote Control

The maximum range of use is ~ 5 metres. WARNING: It takes time for the receiver to respond to the transmitter. Do not press the buttons more than once within two seconds for correct operation.

1. To activate the remote control, remove the battery isolation strip, which is used to ensure your remote control reaches you fully charged.
2. To replace the remote control battery, turn over the remote control and follow the diagram embossed on the remote control.
3. Only use CR2025 or CR2032 size batteries.

To replace the battery:

1. Remove the screw, push down on the battery cover located on the back of the remote control. Slide the battery cover open.
2. Install 1 x 3V CR2025 or CR2032 lithium battery in the battery holder. The positive (+) side of the battery faces up.
3. Close the battery cover and replace the screw.

Cleaning

Over time, dust can accumulate, which can affect performance. It is recommended to clean the unit at least once a month.

CAUTION: ALWAYS turn the unit OFF and disconnect the appliance from the power supply before undergoing any cleaning and maintenance.

For general cleaning, use a soft clean duster – never use abrasive cleaners. The glass viewing screen should be cleaned carefully with a soft cloth. DO NOT use proprietary glass cleaners. To remove any accumulation of dust or fluff, the soft brush attachment of a vacuum cleaner should occasionally be used to clean the outlet grille of the fan heater.

WARNING: Do not operate the product without the grille and outer glass in position, as this may affect the operation of the heater.

IMPORTANT: The control panel and other parts must not come into contact with water or any other liquids.
