SECTION 3 WALL MOUNTED INSTALLATION Your new electric fireplace may be installed virtually anywhere in your home. However, when choosing a location ensure that the general instructions are followed. For best results, install out of direct sunlight. Make sure that the plug or switched fused spur is accessible after the electric fire is fitted. The appliance should be located close to a suitable mains socket to enable connection. The electrical socket must be easily accessible to allow disconnection. WARNING! Keep drapery and other furnishings at least 1 metre from the front and sides of the electric fireplace. Fig. 1 Clearance to Combustibles sides 50 mm floor 110 mm Top 0 mm Back 0 mm INSTALL YOUR FIREPLACE (WALL MOUNTED) STEP 1 Choose a flat wall and then put the bracket on the position where you want to install the fire. Mark the 4 holes carefully from the holes on the bracket (see Fig. 2) STEP 2 Remove the bracket and then drill 4 x Φ8mm holes on the wall. Use appropriate plugs and fixings for your wall type. (see Fig. 3). STEP 3 Fix the bracket by 4x M5 8 screws (See Fig. 4) STEP 4 With the firebox (A) at an angle, fit the slots in the back of firebox (A) over the hooks on the wall mount bracket, and carefully press the top of the firebox against the wall mount bracket. The slots at the top edge of the firebox should slide over the wall mount bracket tabs. Hold the firebox in place and thread the thumb screws (6) through the holes in the firebox and into the wall mount bracket tabs. Tighten both thumb screws and make sure the firebox is secure to the wall. (See Fig. 5, 6 and 7) STEP 5 Carefully arrange the decorative glass (D) along the inset window ledge at the front of the firebox. Use care when moving the fireplace to prevent the decorative glass from sliding about. (See Fig. 8 and 9) 7 200696_4

SECTION 6 MAINTENANCE WARNING Before any maintenance and/or cleaning the exterior of the fireplace, disconnect the unit from the power supply and leave until cooled off. 6.1 Remote Handset Battery Replacement Replace with one CR2032 battery. Make sure the battery is installed correctly in the remote control. 6.2 RESETTING THE THERMAL CUTOUT SWITCH The appliance is fitted with an Electronic Safety Control (E.S.). This is a safety device, which switches off the fire if, for any reason, the appliance overheats, e.g. when covered. If the heater stops operating whilst the flame effect continues normally, this indicates that the E.S. Control is in operation. The E.S. Control can only be re-set after the appliance has cooled down, in order to re-set the E.S. Control proceed as follows: Switch off the appliance (Manual On/Off switch) and leave for approximately 10-15 minutes. Remove any obstruction to the fan heater outlet or fan blades etc. Make sure that the power supply is disconnected at the plug socket outlet whilst you do this. Switch on appliance and the E.S. Control will re-set. Ensure that the appliance is functioning correctly. If the E.S. Control operates again, the appliance should be checked by a competent Electrician. 6.3 CLEANING THE FIREPLACE You can clean the exterior of the fireplace with a soft, damp, lint-free cloth. Do not use cleaning or polishing products. To remove fingerprints or other marks on the front glass panel, use a soft, damp, lint-free cloth with a good quality household glass cleaner. The front glass panel should always be completely dried with a clean, lint-free cloth or paper towel. CAUTION Do not use abrasive cleaners on the glass panel. Do not spray liquids directly onto any surface of the unit. WARNING An authorised service representative should perform any other servicing. The area around the fire should be kept free of any materials such as lint or house dust (i.e. animal hair/ carpet fibers) that could be drawn into the internal workings of the appliance and hence affect the performance. We recommend that you clean around the fan grille housing at regular intervals. This can be done using standard vacuum cleaner and suitable attachment. 6.4 ENVIRONMENT Meaning of crossed out wheeled dustbin: Do not dispose of electrical appliances as unsorted municipal waste, use separate collection facilities. Contact your local government for information regarding the collection systems available. If electrical appliances are disposed of in landfills or dumps, hazardous substances can leak into the groundwater and get into the food chain, damaging your health and well-being. When replacing old appliances with new ones, the retailer is legally obligated to take back your old appliance for disposals at least free of charge. 15 200696_4
