•If the appliance is damaged, check with the supplier before installation and operation.

•Do not use outdoors.

•Do not use in the immediate surroundings of a bath, shower or swimming pool.

•Do not locate the heater immediately below a fixed socket outlet or connection box.

•Do not cover the heater. Do not place material or garments on the heater, or obstruct the air circulation around the heater, for instance by curtains or furniture, as this could cause overheating and a fire risk.

•Unplug the heater when not required for long periods.

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

General

Unpack the heater carefully and retain the packaging for pos- sible future use, in the event of moving or returning the fire to your supplier. Loose coals are packed separately within the carton. When the heater is assembled the coals are placed on top of the fuel bed. ‘The coals may be removed and peb- bles added in their place up to a maximum weight of 6kg. The pebbles are supplied with the product’.

The heater is designed for use inset into a 407mm (16") or 457mm (18") wide by 559mm (22") high fireplace opening see also section “Installation in a fire place opening”.

A 2kw fan heater discreetly positioned in the canopy of the fire provides heating in cold weather. Switching allows half or full heat.

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

Please note: Used in an environment where background noise is very low, it may be possible to hear the fan which operates the flame effect. This is normal and should not be a cause for concern.
