Important Safety Advice
When using electrical appliances, basic precautions
should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire,
electrical shock, and injury to persons, including the
following:
If the appliance is damaged, check with the supplier
before installation and operation.
Do not use outdoors.
Do not use in the immediate surroundings of a bath,
shower or swimming pool.
Do not locate the heater immediately below a fixed socket
outlet or connection box.
Do not cover the heater. Do not place material or
garments on the heater, or obstruct the air circulation
around the heater, for instance by curtains or furniture,
as this could cause overheating and a fire risk.
The appliance is not intended for use by young children
or infirm persons unless they have been adequately
supervised by a responsible person to ensure that they
can use the appliance safely.
Young children should be supervised to ensure they
do not play with the appliance.
Do not use this heater in series with a thermal control,
a program controller, a timer or any other device that
switches on the heat automatically, since a fire risk
exists when the heater is accidentally covered or
displaced.
Ensure that furniture, curtains or other combustible
material are positioned no closer than 1 metre from the
heater.
In the event of a fault unplug the heater.
Unplug the heater when not required for long periods.
Although this heater complies with safety standards,
we do not recommend its use on deep pile carpets or
on long hair type of 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 or service agent or a similarly
qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.
Keep the supply cord away from the front of the heater.
Introduction
Unpack the heater carefully and retain the packaging for possible
future use, in the event of moving or returning the fire to your supplier.
These models are fitted with castors so they can moved from room
to room with ease, and are normally positioned against a wall.
A choice of 1kW or 2kW heat output is provided by the fan heater,
which is located at the bottom of the unit.
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.

Thermal Safety Cut-out
The built-in overheat cut-out switches of the appliance automatically
in the event of a fault. 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.

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.
