A. On/Off Switch

The On/Off Switch supplies power to all fireplace functions. When the switch is in the “ I ” position, the unit is on. When in the “ O ” position, the fireplace is off.

B. 3-Position Switch

The 3-Position Switch changes the mode the fireplace operates in and has three (3) positions:

“ MANUAL ”; “ OFF ”; and “ REMOTE ”.

When in “ REMOTE ” mode, the fireplace's three levels of operation are controlled by the ON and OFF buttons of the remote control.

In “ OFF ” mode, power to all functions is cut off.

In “ MANUAL ” mode, the fireplace's three levels of operation are controlled by the Manual Control Buttons.

C. Manual Control Buttons

The Manual Control Buttons operate the fireplace levels sequentially (from off): flames only; to flames and low heat; to flames and high heat.

The level is increased every time the “ I ” button is pressed, and the fireplace can be turned off at any point by pressing the “ O ” button.

Resetting the Temperature Cutoff Switch

Should the heater overheat, an automatic cut out will turn the fireplace off and it will not come back on without being reset. It can be reset by switching the On/ Off Switch to Off and waiting five

(5)minutes before switching the unit back on.

CAUTION: If you need to continuously reset the heater, disconnect power and call Dimplex customer service at 1-888-DIMPLEX (1-888-346-7539).
