This appliance is not intended for use by children or other persons without assistance or supervision if their physical, sensory or mental capabilities prevent them from using it safely. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

Do not use this stove in series with a thermal control, a program controller, a timer or any other device that switches on the heat automatically, since a fire risk exists when the stove is accidentally covered or displaced.

Ensure that furniture, curtains or other combustible material are positioned no closer than 1 metre from the stove.

In the event of a fault unplug the stove. Unplug the stove when not required for long periods.

Although this stove complies with safety standards, we do not recommend its use on deep pile carpets or on long hair type of rugs.

The appliance must be positioned so that the plug is accessible.

If the supply cord is damaged it must be replaced by the manufacturer or service agent or a similarly qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.

Keep the supply cord away from the front of the stove.

WARNING: In order to avoid overheating, do not cover the stove. Do not place material or garments on the stove, or obstruct the air circulation around the stove.

General.

Unpack the stove carefully and retain the packaging for possible future use, in the event of moving or returning the stove to your supplier. The Remote Control and batteries are packed separately in the carton.

The stove incorporates a flame 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 flame effect on its own only requires little electricity.

These models are designed to be free standing and are normal positioned near a wall.

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

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 flame effect. This is normal and should not be a cause for concern.

Electrical connection.

WARNING – THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED. This stove must be used on an AC ~ supply only and the voltage marked on the stove must correspond to the supply voltage.

Before switching on, please read the safety warnings and operating instructions.
