Installation Instructions
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 reduce heat losses and to prevent any chimney updraught affecting the operation of your re we
recommend that the chimney ue is blocked off, ensure that there is a slight gap for ventilation.
To install the appliance;
Hold the re by the sides 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 switching on the appliance, please read the following instructions.
Before using the manual controls rstly ll the water tank (See ‘Maintenance’, ‘Filling the water tank’).
Operating the Fire
The manual controls are located behind the drawer.
(See Fig.2 for Manual Control lay out)
Switch ‘A’:- Controls the electricity supply to the re.
Note: This switch must be in the ‘ON’ ( I ) position for the re to operate
Switch ‘B’:- Controls the function of the re.
Press once to turn on ame effect. This will be indicated by one beep.
Although the main lights operate immediately it will take a further 30 seconds before the ame effect starts.
Press to put re in to standby mode.
This will be indicated by one beep.
Control Knob ‘C’:- Controls the intensity of the ame effect.
Turning the control knob up increases the ame effect, turning the control knob down will decrease the ame
effect.
When the water tank 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.
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 operate.
There are 2 buttons on the remote control. (See Fig.7)
To operate correctly the remote must be pointed towards the front fuel effect.
General Information
Unpack the re 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 effect, which can be used with or without heating, so that the comforting effect may be
enjoyed at any time of the year. Using the ame effect on its own only requires little electricity.
This model is designed to be installed in a surround or into a wall recess.
Before connecting the re check that the supply voltage is the same as that stated on the re.
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 effect. This is normal and should not be a cause for concern.
Electrical connection.
WARNING – THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.
This re must be used on an AC ~ supply only and the voltage marked on the re must correspond to the supply
voltage.

4. Leave the appliance for 20 minutes to allow the lamps to cool down before removing them.
5. Remove the water tank by lifting upwards and place in a sink.
6. Remove the sump as described in the Cleaning Section.
7. Remove the defective lamp, by gently lifting vertically and disengaging the pins from the lamp holder, (See Fig.4
and 5). Replace with an original, 12V, 45W, Gu5.3 base, 8º beam angle, coloured lamp. Purchase the lamps from your
supplier
8. Carefully insert the two pins of the new lamp into the two holes in the lamp holder. Push rmly in place. (See Fig.4

3. Remove the water tank by lifting upwards and outwards.
4. Place the water tank in sink and remove cap, Anti-clockwise to open. (See Fig.6)
5. Fill tank with tap water with a maximum hardness of 10 dH only.This is necessary to prolong the life of the ame
and smoke producing unit.
In situations with a higher water hardness, the water should be ltered (for example with a Maxtra lter). Do not use a
decalcier.
6. Screw the cap back on, do not overtighten.
7. Return the tank to the sump, with the tank cap facing down and the at side of the tank facing outward.

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 different battery type, if inserted incorrectly, if all the batteries are

recharged.
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 effect. 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 effect.
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.
