electric fireplace. (FIGURE 13)
A. MAIN ON/OFF SWITCH

C. HEATER THERMOSTAT CONTROL
To adjust the temperature to your individual requirements, turn the thermostat control
clockwise all the way to turn on the heater. When the room reaches the desired
temperature, turn the thermostat knob counter clockwise until you hear a click. Leave in
this position to maintain the room temperature at this setting. For additional heat, turn
clockwise until you hear the click again and the heater will turn on.
RESETTING THE TEMPERATURE CUTOFF SWITCH
Should the heater overheat, an automatic cut out will turn the heater off and it will not come
back on without being reset. It can be reset by switching the MAIN ON/OFF SWITCH to OFF
and waiting 5 minutes before switching the unit back on.
CAUTION
If you need to continuously reset the heater, unplug the unit and call Dimplex customer service
at 1-888-DIMPLEX (1-888-346-7539).
NOTE
The heater may emit a slight, harmless odor when first used. This odor is a normal condition
caused by initial heating of internal heater parts and will not occur again.

REMOTE CONTROL USUAGE
The corner wall mounted electric fireplace is supplied with a radio frequency remote control.
This remote control has a range of approximately 50 feet (15.25m), it does not have to be
pointed at the fireplace and can pass through most obstacles (including walls). It is supplied
with one of 243 independent frequencies to prevent interference with other units. The
frequency designation is indicated on the back of the transmitter.
A. Remote Control Initialization
This procedure is required every time there is a loss
of power to the remote control in the fireplace.
(i.e. power failure, breaker tripped, main power switch
is turned off)
1. Ensure that power is supplied through main
service panel.
2. Locate manual controls. (refer to FIGURE 13)
3. Activate main power switch, red indicator light 1
will flash.
4. Press and hold the heater control switch for five
seconds. The second red indictor light will flash.
5. Press ON button located on the remote control
transmitter (FIGURE 14). This will synchronize
the remote control transmitter and receiver.
B. Remote Control Usage
The remote control operates the fireplace levels
sequentially. The level is increased every time the
ON button on the transmitter is pressed. The
fireplace can be turned off at any point by pressing
the OFF button on the remote control transmitter.
Level 1: The flame effect is turned on and the first red
indicator light is activated.
Level 2: The flame effect remains on, the heater is
activated to the low heat setting, and the first and
second red indicator lights are activated.
Level 3: The flame effect remains on, the heater is

MAINTENANCE
WARNING

electric shock or damage to persons.
LIGHT BULB REPLACEMENT
Allow at least 5 minutes for light bulbs to cool before touching bulbs to avoid accidental burning
of skin.
Light bulbs need to be replaced when you notice a dark section of the flame or when the clarity
and detail of the log exterior disappears. There are two bulbs under the log set which generate
the flames and embers.
