Unpack the heater carefully and retain the packaging for
possible future use, in the event of moving or returning the
fire to your supplier. Loose coals and pebbles are packed
separately within the carton. When the heater is assembled

A 2kw fan heater discreetly positioned in the canopy of the

Before connecting the heater check that the supply voltage is
the same as that stated on the heater.
