Note: If the ambient temperature (the temperature in the area around the fireplace) is greater than the
set temperature, the HI/LOW display, fan, and Bulb will not operate.
1) By pusing the 0C/0F/Down button, you can switch the temperature format from Fahrenheit to
Celsius and vice versa.
2) By pressing the TIME button, the LED display will switch from the “temperature” status to the
“time” status. The default time will display “--“. This means that the TIME is not activated and,
therefore, the fireplace will remain on. You must press the HI/LOW/UP button or the 0C/0F/DOWN
once again within (5) seconds to set the time. Each time you press the HI/LOW/UP button, the
time will increase by 0.5 Hr. If you press the 0C/0F/DOWN button, the time will decrease by 0.5
Hr. The maximum value for time is 8.0 Hr. By holding down the HI/LOW/UP button or

7) Chicago - Portable Infrared Electric Fireplace can be turned off by pressing the POWER button.
DO NOT TURN OFF THE MASTER POWER SWITCH ON THE REAR PANEL OF THE
FIREPLACE OR UNPLUG THE FIREPLACE UNTIL THE FAN TURNS OFF. If the fireplace is
left on using the TIME function, there will be (5) second sound alert to let you know that the time
is expiring. If no actions are taken, the fireplace will shut off.
8) Note that the temperature displayed on the fireplace may not always match the temperature
displayed on wall thermostats, thermometers, or other external temperature read-outs. This is
because the fireplace is often located near the floor, which allows for it to register the temperature
of the cooler air near and around the floor (warmer air rises up). It does not necessarily mean
your room is that cold or that the fireplace is not heating. It is completely normal to have a
variance of 2 to 3 degrees between your fireplace’s display and your external temperature read-
out mechanism (thermometer, wall thermostat, etc.)
Troubleshooting
1. PROBLEM:
a. If the Heat Emitter is broken or damaged
b. If the Control Panel is not responding, the temperature reading is above 860F/300C, or there is
a burning odor coming from the portable fireplace
c. Or if the power cord is damaged
SOLUTION: Contact the manufacturer immediately. DO NOT attempt to operate the portable
fireplace as this may cause electric shock, fire, and/or injury.
2. PROBLEM:
a. The amount of heated air emitting from the front of the portable fireplace is reduced.
SOLUTION: Check the electrostatic filter to make sure it is free of dust and dirt. Also check the front
grill and rear air intake to make sure it is not being blocked by any kind of debris.
3. PROBLEM:
a. The fireplace doesn’t turn on.
SOLUTION: First, test your outlet to make sure it has power. You can do this by plugging in another
appliance and turning the appliance on. Secondly, check the LED display to see if it is on. If this is
the case, press the POWER button to turn off the TIME and resume normal operation of the
portable fireplace. Third, check the power switch to see if it is lighting up. If the outlet does have
power, the LED display would not turn on. If the power switch doesn’t work, contact the
manufacturer immediately for further troubleshooting.
4. PROBLEM:
a. The fireplace continues to operate even when the power switch is turned off.
SOLUTION: Do not unplug. The fireplace has a fan that will continue to operate even when the
power switch is turned off. This fan continues to run in order to cool down the fireplace. Once the
fan stops running, you can then unplug the unit.
5. PROBLEM:
a. The control panel doesn’t display TEMPERATURE or TIME.

8
SOLUTION: First, check to make sure the power cord is not damaged, is plugged in, and the outlet
has power. Secondly, check to make sure the control panel is not damaged. If the control panel
display continues to be inoperable, contact the manufacturer for further troubleshooting.
6. PROBLEM:
a. The control panel displays TEMPERATURE and TIME, but the fireplace does not operate.
SOLUTION: The Signal Cable or other relevant plugs may have lost connection. Please contact the
manufacturer for further troubleshooting.
7. PROBLEM:
a. The heat emitter is functioning and the air outflow is working, but the temperature displayed on
the LED panel does not increase.
SOLUTION: The temperature sensor may be damaged or may have lost connection. Please contact
the manufacturer immediately for further troubleshooting.
8. PROBLEM:
a. The display shows “Er”. This error code means the heating system is not working correctly.
SOLUTION: Contact the manufacturer immediately. DO NOT attempt to operate the fireplace as this
may cause electric shock, fire, and/or injury.
9. PROBLEM:
a. No simulated flame when you turn on the fireplace.
SOLUTION: Contact the manufacturer first for instructions on how to replace the bulb. Working life of
