Resetting the Thermal Cut Out
The appliance is fitted with an Electronic Safety Control (E.S.). This is a safety device,
which switches off the fire if, for any reason, the appliance overheats, e.g. if covered. If
the heater stops operating while the flame effect continues working normally, this
indicates that the E.S. Control is in operation. The E.S. Control can only be reset after the
appliance has cooled down, and the appliance has been reset. Resetting of the E.S.
Control proceeds is as follows:
Switch off the appliance (Manual On / Off switch) and leave it off for approximately
10-15 minutes.
Remove any obstruction to the fan heater outlet or fan blades etc. Make sure that the
power supply is disconnected with the plug socket outlet while doing this.
Switch on the appliance and the E.S. Control will be re-set.
Ensure that the appliance is functioning correctly. If the E.S. Control operates again, the
appliance should be checked by a competent electrician.
