PRELIMINARY NOTES
The Evoke Electric Wall Heater provides convected heating in conjunction with a LCD screen which can display a number
of different fuel effects and scenes. The appliance is designed for indoor use, and can be simply wall mounted in the major-
ity of wall positions anticipated. It can can be located in any household room, with the exception of bathrooms. Read all of
the instructions before commencing installation. Retain for future reference and pass on as necessary to subsequent owners
of the appliance.
DO NOT use this appliance immediately below a fixed socket outlet.
DO NOT use this appliance in the immediate vicinity of a bath, shower, swimming pool or other area where water/moisture
could present a hazard.
CAUTION: This appliance must not be used in conjunction with any timer, programmer or thermal control, or any other
device that will switch on the appliance automatically, as a fire risk may occur if the heaters are accidentally covered or dis-
placed.
Do not allow the heater to be covered as this may cause overheating. The appliance must not be placed near curtains or sim-
ilar material. A clearance space of at least 500mm should be allowed in front of the appliance.
The electrical socket that the appliance uses MUST be easily accessible. Do not route the supply cord directly over or above
the heater unit. If the cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a service agent or competent person.

SITE REQUIREMENTS
The appliances are designed to be wall mounted via the wall mounting plate and fixings provided. The wall should be rela-
tively flat and not interfere with any of the ventilation slots in the appliance casing.
The wall must be structurally sound and of a material capable of withstanding moderate heat. Finished plaster, conventional
wallpaper, dry-lined plaster board are examples of suitable materials. Materials such as “flock blown vinyl”, embossed paper
and cloth wall coverings which are sensitive to even small amounts of heat should be avoided, as some discolouration may
occur. It should be noted that the appliance creates warm convected air currents. These currents move heat from the room
surroundings to, and up the wall surfaces adjacent to the heater.
Installing the heater next to these types of wall coverings or operating the heater where impurities in the air, (such as tobac-
co smoke) exist, may slightly discolour wall finishing.
If the appliance is to be mounted on a dry lined or timber framed construction then the integrity and ability of the wall to
carry the weight of the appliance must be confirmed. It is important in these circumstances that any vapour barrier and/or
structural members of the house frame are not damaged. If you are unsure of the ability of the wall to carry the weight and/or
which type of wall fixing to use, you should take professional advice and obtain the correct fixings. Alternatively, find a more
suitable wall location.
DO NOT -mount on a ceiling or floor.
-recess any part of the appliance into the wall.
-site any electrical equipment e.g. plasma screen TV sets etc,
on the wall above the appliance.
- site in a position where curtains or drapes could cover the appliance.
-site in a position where other soft materials could cover e.g. below a coat rack.
-site behind an opening door where mechanical impact/damage could occur.
-site where the supply cable would become a trip hazard.
-sit, stand or forcefully pull on the appliance.
-obstruct, cover or force items into the openings.
-use the heater to dry clothes.
- site/use in an outdoor location(s).
-run the supply cable under carpets.
CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS

FIXING THE APPLIANCE
DO NOT connect the appliance to the supply at this stage.
Remove the single thumbscrew from the middle of the base panel of the appli-
ance, then remove the wall mounting plate from the appliance.
After having selected the final mounting position of the appliance, taking into
account the requirements as specified in sections 3.0, 4.0 and 5.0 of these instruc-
tions, the integrity of the wall, and the feasibility of the proposed supply cord rout-
ing, the wall mounting plate may be secured to the wall.
To ensure safety, be sure to design the installation so that the strength of both the wall and any wall fixings used are sufficient.
Focal Point Fires plc. assumes absolutely no responsibility for injuries and damages that may occur due to improper installa-
tion or handling. The appliance should not be installed until all wet plastering and/or dry wall sanding and wall painting has
been completed. Do not block the ventilation holes of the appliance. The wall onto which the appliance is installed must be
flat. Install only on a vertical surface. Avoid sloped surfaces. Installation onto
anything other than a vertical wall may result in fire, damage or injury.
If the appliance is to be mounted on the inner leaf of a conventional cavity brick
wall, or a solid wall, then the wall plugs and fixing screws provided may be
used. Depending on the condition of the wall it may be necessary to use addi-
tional fixings. In this situation, any additional fixings and wallplugs should be of
the same size and type as the ones provided.
Using a spirit level to check correct horizontal alignment, hold the wall mount-
ing plate in the desired position and using a pencil, mark out the position of the
fixing holes on the wall. Remove the mounting plate from the wall and drill four
holes using only a 8.0mm masonry bit to a
depth of 43mm. Insert the wallplugs pro-
vided ensuring they are flush to the wall.
Using the screws provided, fix the mount-
ing plate to the wall.
If the appliance is to be mounted on a dry lined wall or a timber framed construction wall
then efforts should be made to fix in at least two positions vertically, into one of the wooden studs, or supporting wooden
members of the wall using two of the fixing screws provided. If this is not achievable then the wall should be strengthened
using appropriate building materials.
If there is no alternative than to rely on
some plasterboard fixings then special cavity screw fixings or hollow wall anchors will
be required which are not supplied with this
product. These should be constructed from
metal and not plastic and of the design indi-
cated in figure 3.
With the wall plate secured in position the
heater unit can be hung onto the wall plate.
Ensure the two hooks at the top of the wall
plate fully engage the keyhole shaped holes
in the brackets at the top of the heater back
panel as shown in figure 4.
Finally re-fit the thumbscrew to the base
panel of the heater via the tab at the bottom
of the wall plate (see figure 2). This fixes the
heater to the wall plate and will prevent the
heater from falling off the wall in the event it
is accidentally knocked, for example.
When the heater unit is in position on the
wall, remove the decorative glass facia from
the packaging and fit to the heater. The four
keyhole shaped holes on the back of the
frame mount directly onto the four M6
screws on the front of the heater (see figure 4a inset).

Plasterboard alone is not considered to
be a structural material.
It is not recommended to rely on plas-
terboard fixings alone to support the
weight of the appliance.
WARNING
The wall where the appliance is to be
installed must be capable of long-term
support of the total load of the appli-
ance. Measures should also be taken to
ensure sufficient strength to withstand
the force of earthquakes, vibration and
other external forces.

9.0 OPERATING THE APPLIANCE
Read All Instructions Before Use
Check that the heater outlet grille, mounted at the top of the appliance, is not covered or obstructed in any way, and ensure
the power to the fire is switched on. The power to the LCD display panel and the heater functions are controlled using four
switches mounted on the lower right hand side panel.
Controlling the heater functions
The first switch towards the top, marked (0I), controls the main power to the appliance and switches on the LCD display
panel. This feature can be used independently of the heating features.
The next switch down, marked (*) operates the fan blower without heat, and can be used
for cool air circulation. However for this feature, the main power switch (0I), must also be
in the “on” position.
The next switch down, with a “single bar” marked (I) operates the low heat, (1kW), set-
ting.
The switch at the bottom, with “two single bars” marked (II), operates the high heat,
(2kW) setting.
To operate the fire in any of the above modes, the top switch marked (OI) must be
switched to the “on” position.
To operate the fire, the first switch must be turned on firstly, followed by the second
switch to start the blower, if required. To obtain heat from the appliance, the I switch must
then be operated for LOW heat, followed by the II switch for the HIGH heat setting.
Controlling the LCD display panel - Basic functions
The appliance is pre-programmed with seven different scenes as shown in figures 5
through 11. These scenes have been specially edited to run in a seamless loop. When the
appliance is switched on, the coal fire scene will automatically run. To select a different
scene either press the button or the button. This will skip through all of the dif-
ferent scenes in order. Alternatively, to jump directly to a certain scene press one of the
scene select buttons. For example, button will play the log fire scene (see figure 5).
Button will
play the coal fire
scene (see figure
6) and so on.
Certain scenes
also include
sound. This can
be muted by
pressing the
button. The vol-
ume can be low-
ered by pressing
the button
and raised by
pressing the
button.
The footage can
be paused by
pressing the
button. Press
again to resume.
The footage can be speeded up or played backwards by pressing the or buttons.
A clock can be made to appear in the top right hand corner of the screen by pressing .
Press again to hide the clock.
During normal operation the footage may occasionally be seen to ‘freeze’ for a fraction
of a second. This happens as the scene is recycled to loop again. This is perfectly normal
and should be no cause for concern.

OPERATING THE APPLIANCE - continued
Controlling the LCD display panel - Advanced functions
The LCD display panels are factory set for best all-round performance and no further adjustment should be necessary. Should
you wish however, certain settings can be changed by using some of the buttons on the handset and the on-screen menu
systems. There are two main menus.
Display settings menu
Setup menu
Pressing the button will open the setup menu. The
LCD display panel is factory set for best performance and
therefore we recommend against changing any of the set-
tings in this menu.
The appliance can be switched off at any time, irrespec-
tive of the particular mode selected, by simply switching
the first switch marked (OI) to the “off” position. It is also
recommended to unplug the power supply cable at the
supply outlet when not in use.
SAFETY CUT-OUT SYSTEM
This appliance has a safety cut-out system fitted which will activate if the air inlets or heater outlets are obstructed. For safe-
ty reasons the fire WILL NOT switch on again automatically.
NOTE: The LCD display panel will remain operational if the cut-out is activated, only the fan heater elements are prevented
from operating.
The following procedure must be carried out before the fire can be operated again:
1. Unplug the power supply cable at the outlet socket and place all switches to off at the appliance.
2. Leave the fire OFF for a period of not less than 10 minutes, ensuring any obstructions are removed.
3. Plug in the power supply cable at the outlet socket, and then switch on at the appliance.
If the appliance fails to operate correctly, repeat the above procedure.
If an attempt to switch on is made before the safety cut-out has reset, the heaters may cut-out for a further period of time. If
the sequence has been followed correctly and the heaters still fail to function, check the power supply cable plug is plugged
in at the outlet socket. If this is not the cause, call an electrician.
