Operation

When you are certain that you have completed the installation, plug in and switch on at the wall socket.

Controls - see Fig. 1

Fuel effect

The fuel effect will be lit all the time that the heater is connected to the power supply, even if the heat selector switches are in the OFF position. The flicker rotors should begin to rotate after a minute

or so.

The lamps will go out only when the heater is switched off at the wall socket or unplugged.

Radiant elements

You have a choice of low heat (two elements, 1332W) or high heat (three elements, 1998W). Both settings have electronic temperature control - see below.

A switch is set to ON when the red dot is visible.

Low heat setting

Press switch 1 to ON. Two elements will glow and, when the temperature selected on the electronic control dial 4 is reached, one of the elements will automatically turn off, switching back on if the temperature falls.

See also ‘Electronic economiser temperature control ’ below.

High heat setting

Set switches 1 and 2 to ON. All three elements will glow and, when the temperature selected on the electronic control dial 4 is reached, two of the elements will automatically turn off, switching back on if the temperature falls.

The fire can be returned to low heat setting by pressing switch 2 to OFF.

See also ‘Electronic economiser temperature control ’ below.

Convector heater

The 700 watt convector heater can be used by itself for background heating, or in conjunction with the radiant elements for extra heat.

The convector output is through the vent in the canopy. This vent must never be covered or obstructed.

Press switch 3 to the ON position. Warm air will now come through the vent in the canopy until the temperature selected on the electronic control dial 4 is reached. The convector heater will then turn off automatically, switching back on if the temperature falls. See also ‘Electronic economiser temperature control ’ below.

Electronic economiser temperature control

This sensitive output control 4 will switch the radiant and convector heater elements ON and OFF to accurately maintain the level of comfort that you have selected.

Select the heat required - convector and/or low or high radiant setting - then turn the control dial to 7; when the room reaches a comfortable level of warmth, turn the dial down until the electronically controlled elements switch off. The control dial should be left at this setting; the electronic control will then switch the elements ON and OFF as needed to maintain your chosen comfort level.
