General.
Unpack the heater carefully and retain the packaging for
possible future use, in the event of moving or returning
the re to your supplier. The Remote Control and batteries
are packed separately in the carton.
The re incorporates a ame eect, which can be used
with or without heating, so that the comforting eect may
be enjoyed at any time of the year. Using the ame eect
on its own only requires little electricity.
The heater is designed for use inset into a 407mm (16”) or
457mm (18”) wide by 559mm (22”) high replace opening
or freestanding - see also section ‘Installation Instructions’.
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 ame eect. This is
normal and should not be a cause for concern.
Electrical connection.
WARNING – THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.
This heater must be used on an AC ~ supply only and the

Important Safety Advice:
When using electrical appliances, basic
precautions should always be followed to reduce
the risk of re, 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 xed
socket outlet or connection box.
This appliance is not intended for use by children
or other persons without assistance or supervision
if their physical, sensory or mental capabilities
prevent them from using it safely. Children should
be supervised to ensure that 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 re 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.

Installation Instructions
Before installing this appliance, we recommend that;
1. You have your chimney cleaned by a competent
chimney sweep.
2. You block o the chimney ue.
This procedure is important for the ecient operation
of the heating unit and will also reduce heat loss up the
chimney.
Installation.
Ensure that all packing items are removed (read any
warning labels carefully).
Retain all packing for possible future use, in the event
of moving or returning the appliance to your supplier.
To install the appliance;
1. Remove the replace grate, ashpan etc.
2. The ashbed grate should be stored away for possible
future use.
3. Clean the hearth of any ash residue or dust etc.
At the rear of the appliance, two adjustable supports are
provided for levelling, where the base of the replace
opening is raised above the level of the hearth.
You are now ready to install the electric re into your
replace.
Make sure the unit is switched OFF.
Hold the re by the sides of surround and gently
manoeuvre into position. Plug the re into a 13amp/240
volt outlet. Ensure that the supply cable exits at the front
of the re, at the right or left hand corner to suit your
supply socket location and is not trapped under the re
such that it might cause it to be damaged.
Before using the manual controls rstly ll the water
tank (See ‘Maintenance’,‘Filling the water tank’).
Manual Controls.
The Opti-myst Manual controls are located beneath the
hinged canopy cover. Raise the canopy cover to access the
controls. (See Fig.2 for Manual Control lay out)
Switch‘A’:- Controls the electricity supply to the heater.
Note: This switch must be in the ‘ON’ ( I ) position for the
heater to operate with or without heat.
Switch‘B’:- Controls the function of the re.
Press once to turn on ame eect. This will be
indicated by one beep.
Although the main lights operate immediately it will
take a further 30 seconds before the ame eect
starts.
Press again to give ame eect and half heat.
This will be indicated by two beeps.
Press again to give ame eect and full heat.
This will be indicated by three beeps.
Press again to return to ame eect only.
This will be indicated by one beep.
Press to put re in to standby mode.
This will be indicated by one beep.
Control Knob‘C’:- Controls the intensity of the ame
eect.
Turning the control knob Clockwise increases
the ame eect, turning the control knob Anti
Clockwise will decrease the ame eect.
Control Knob‘D’:- Controls the Electronic Thermostat
setting.
Turning the control knob Clockwise will decrease
the temperature setting, turning the control knob
Anti Clockwise will increase the temperature setting.
LED ‘E’:- When this is illuminated it indicates that the water
tank is empty. You will hear two beeps.
When the water is empty the main lamps go out. See
instructions under ‘Maintenance’, ‘Filling the water tank’.
When this procedure is complete, the main lamps will
illuminate but it will take 30 seconds before the ames
return.
Electronic Thermostat
The thermostat controls the heat output according to the
room temperature. This ensures that the heater will not
produce heat unnecessarily when the room is warm.
To set the temperature you require, turn the thermostat
control knob ‘D’ (See Fig.2) Anti-Clockwise until the
desired temperature is reached. Alternatively to heat
a cold room quickly, turn the thermostat control knob
‘D’ (See g.2) up fully. When the room has reached the
desired temperature, turn the thermostat control knob
‘D’ (See Fig.2) clockwise until the desired heat setting is
achieved.
The heater will now automatically operate at this
temperature.
Remote Control Operation
On the control panel, Switch A (see Fig.2) must be in the
‘ON’ ( I ) position in order for the remote control to oper-
ate. There are 3 buttons on the remote control. (See Fig.7)
To operate correctly the remote must be pointed towards
the front fuel eect.
The remote control functions are as follows:
Press once to turn on Flame eect only.
This will be indicated by one beep.
Press once to turn on Half heat and Flame
eect.
This will be indicated by two beeps.
Press again to turn on Full heat and Flame
eect.
This will be indicated by three beeps.
Standby
This will be indicated by one beep.

Battery Information.
1. Unclip the battery cover on the back of the remote
control. (See Fig.7)
2. Install AAA batteries into the remote control.
3. Replace the battery cover.
Discard leaky batteries.
Dispose of batteries in the proper manner according to
provincial and local regulations.
Any battery may leak electrolyte if mixed with a dierent
battery type, if inserted incorrectly, if all the batteries are
not replaced at the same time, if disposed of in a re, or if
an attempt is made to charge a battery not intended to be
recharged.
Thermal safety cut-out
A thermal safety cut-out is incorporated in the fan heater
to prevent damage due to overheating. This can happen if
the heat outlet was restricted in any way or if the chimney
ue has not been blocked o eectively. If the cut-out
operates, unplug the heater from the socket outlet and
allow approximately 10 minutes before reconnecting.
Before switching the heater back on remove any
obstruction that may be restricting the heat outlet, then
continue normal operation.
Tips for using your appliance.
1. Only pull out the drawer when its time to rell the
water tank or change a lamp, otherwise it may lead to
excess water in the sump and reduced ame eect. If this
happens empty the water from the sump as instructed
under ‘Maintenance’.
2. With the ame setting on minimum the unit will use
approximately 40ml of water per hour and will last 3 times
as long than when it is at maximum ame setting.
3. Do not tilt or move the re while there is water in the
tank or sump.
4. Make sure that the re is on a level oor.
5. The ame control knob ‘C’ Fig.2 may be turned up or
down to give a more realistic eect.
6. Sometimes the ames appear more real when the ame
control knob is turned down.
7. Give the ame generator some time to react to
changes you may make on the ame control knob.
