3. PRECAUTIONS FOR INSTALLING THE DEVICE IN ITS ENVIRONMENT:
Do not play any object on the device while operating. Leave access to the control components free.
Do not use in a room with air currents.
4. ELECTRIC CONNECTION TO YOUR DEVICE
Your device is sent with INPUT electric power of 100-240 volts (50/60 Hz) and OUTPUT of 24 volts.
Before embedding your device, you must connect the electric power to a 100-240 volt/50/60 Hz – 12-
amp circuit.
If you want to an external connection for a remote switch control or smart-home installation, you must
use the dry contact meant for this purpose.
5. Installation diagrams:
AFIRE devices are meant to be embedded without needing any ventilation in the housing for the
device.
In the housing, you must install a normal 110/240 volt (12 amp) electric current in order to power the
device through a 24-volt transformer.
You must also install water supply if you want to connect your device directly.
See the daagram below for the embedding dimensions.
You must leave 5 cm minimum around the device to facilitate installation.

7. INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE:
A- Description of the control strip

The ON/OFF button turns the device on and off. Button B1 is used to fill the reservoir with water.
Button B2 is used to empty the device. Hold the button for 5 seconds to start the pumps. Press
once to stop the pumps. The stainless-steel “Tube” connection connects to the plastic hose provided
to fill and empty the device.
ATTENTION: The water used must be perfectly clean with no dust or reside that may clog the
hydraulic system. This point is very important for the operation of your device.
B- Using your device for the first time
Depending on your type of device (PREMIUM AWP, XXL AW, Angle AWA, AW-VIP), it may be
connected directly to your home’s water network (see diagram below, ¼" ). In this case, if you press
the ON/OFF button and the isoalation tap on the hydraulic circuit is open, the device will fill
automatically. In all cases, if you do not use your device, shut off the income water supply to
avoid leaking.
If the device is not connected to the water network, you can fill the reservoir using button B1 (fill). To
do so, first, connect the provided hose to the staintless-steel connector (tube) and submerge the mart
of the hose with its filter in a container of water. Then, press the ON/OFF button. The row of orange
LEDs will blink immediately (empty reservoir). Then, press B1 during 5 secondes once and the filling
pump will start and stop automatically when the reservoir is full. The organge LEDs will remain on and
vapor will start to come out of your device. Note: for the first filling, you will need: 2 liters for AWP 20-
50 and AWO2 0-50, 4 liters for AWP 40-100, AWO 40-100, and AWX 40-100, 6.5 liters for AWP 60-
150 and AWX 60-150. Then, you can control your device using the remote control or the App.
If your device is an ORIGINAL AWO, filling is done manually. You will need to remore the top plate to
access the reservoir cap. When filling, be sure not to let the water overflow, and preferabely use a
funnel.
C- Caution:
Tap water may be used in our devices, however, be sure the water is not considered to be “hard”
and that it contains no impurities (may clog valves). If your water is hard, you must use filtered or
softened water in order not to wear out the Mist Maker too quickly.

Direct connection to the water network ¼”

.8. CONNECTION SEVERAL DEVICES TO CREATE A FIRE LINE
Choose one of the deivces that will be the MASTER receiver. All the other devices will be SLAVES
that depent on this MASTER for control. You can choose any of your devices to be the MASTER.
When you receive your devices, they are all MASTERS. Once you choose your MASTER, adjust all
the other modules as follows so they will become SLAVES.
Simultaneously hold the On/Off and B2 buttons for 5 seconds. You will hear a short beep and
the device is now a SLAVE.
Note that for fireplaces that have several modules, the smartphone app must be registered
ONLY for the MASTER.
To know the status of the module: Simultaneously hold the On/Off and B2 buttons for 5 seconds:
short beep SLAVE – Long beep MASTER
9: DEVICE MAINTENANCE

All cleaning and maintenance operations must be done with the device switched off. Occasionally
clean the visible parts with a soft cloth. Never interfere with the safety or electronic systems. Contact
us or an authorized specialist.
Some components are required to ensure the safety and proper operation of the device. Their
replacement may modify the performance of your device. Only original components should be used for
maintenance or repair operations. This maintenance may only be carried out by authorized specialists.
If these instructions are not followed, our liability will not be incurred. If you plan on moving the device,
always do so with the reservoir emptied.
Cleaning and maintenance: If you do not use your device for several weeks, it is very important
to empty it in order to prevent stagnant water.
After using for a while, your device may produce less vapor, and as such, reduce the quality of the
flames. You should then clean or replace certain worn-out parts, such as the ultrasonic Mist Maker,
the lifespan of which is between 2,000 and 3,000 hours (depending on the quality of the water used).
To do so, follow this procedure:
1 – Switch off your device and remove the top detachable plate.
2 – Disconnect the input of the Mist Make and unscrew the drain cap of the Mist Make.
3 – Replace the Mist Make or try to clean the white disk with white vinegar (a few drops on the disk for
a few minutes to dissolve lime scale).
5 - Reassemble.
Clean the air filter on the Mist Make case ventilator. To do this, clean carefully with water, then let dry
before reassembly.
10: Warranty
Devices have a limited warranty of two years (from date of purchase).
This limited warrenty applies only to the original purchaser of the product and is non-transferable.
Not covered by the warranty: The warranty does not apply to products that have been repaired (unless
they were repaired by the manufacturer or an authorized representative). The warranty does not
apply to replacable parts such as the ultrasonic Mist Maker.
This limited warranty does not apply to defects resulting from improper use, poor cleanliness of the
water used, abuse, accidents, negligence, improper installation, improper maintenance or handling.
For the warranty, defects must be reported to the manufacturer’s technical service or its representative.
Please provide proof of purchase (receipt) and serial number.
