 NOTE:

  The remote control is an EEPROM system; 

therefore if power is interrupted for whatever reason, 

the built-in receiver board will hold the memory of 

the remote’s radio frequency for up to 24 hours.  The 

remote should continue to operate the fireplace as 

normal once unit is re-powered.  Re-initialization of the 

remote control to the fireplace should only be required 

if there is a loss of power to the receiver for longer than 

24 hours. (i.e. power failure, main power switch is turned 

off).

To operate, push the ON button to turn fireplace on, push 

the OFF button to turn the fireplace off.

!

 NOTE

: Ensure that the fireplace 3-Position switch is 

set to the remote control setting .

Remote Control Initialization/Reprogramming

If the hand held transmitter or receiver board has been 

replaced, follow these steps to initialize the transmitter and 

receiver:

1.  Place the 

3-Position Switch

 (Figure 1A) in the OFF 

(“O”) position.

2.  Wait a minimum of five (5) seconds and then place the 

3-Position Switch

 in the Remote Control (“=”) position.

3 .  Within

 10 seconds of changing the switch position, 

press the ON button located on the remote control 

(Figure 2). 

This will synchronize the remote control and the fireplace 

receiver.

!

 NOTE: 

You will have only 10 seconds to perform this 

last step. Failure to do so will result in these steps 

needing to be followed again.

Battery Replacement 

To replace the battery:

1.  Slide battery cover open on the remote control  

(Figure 2).

2.  Install one (1) 12-Volt (A23) battery in the battery 

holder.

3.  Close the battery cover

Battery must be recycled or disposed of properly. 

Check with your Local Authority or Retailer for 

recycling advice in your area.

OPERATION

A . 3-Position Switch

The switch has two On positions marked.  The “ -- “ position 

is for manual operation.  In this position the built-in remote 

control is by-passed.  The “ = “ position is for operating 

the unit with the provided remote control.  When in remote 

control (“ = “) position the unit is operated with the On and 

Off buttons of the remote control. 
When the switch is in the center “o” position the unit is off.

B . Heater Switch

The Heater Switch supplies power to the heater fan and the 

heater element.  When the switch is in the ON position the 

heater operates if the thermostat calls for heat.

C . Heater Thermostat Control

To adjust the temperature to your individual requirements, 

turn the thermostat control clockwise all the way to 

turn on the heater. When the room reaches the desired 

temperature, turn the thermostat knob counter-clockwise 

until you hear a click. Leave in this position to maintain the 

room temperature at this setting. For additional heat, turn 

clockwise until you hear the click again and the heater will 

turn on.

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 3-Position Switch to 

Off and waiting five (5) minutes before switching the unit 

back on.

!

  NOTE: 

 If operating the unit with a remote control, the 

remote may require re-initializing after turning the power 

off.

 CAUTION:  

If you need to continuously reset the heater, 

disconnect power and call Dimplex customer service at 

1-888-DIMPLEX (1-888-346-7539).

Remote Control

The fireplace is supplied with a radio frequency remote 

control.  This remote control has a range of approximately 

50 feet (15.25 m), it does not have to be pointed at the 

fireplace and can pass through most obstacles (including 

walls).  It is supplied with one of hundreds of independent 

frequencies to prevent interference with other units.

!

 NOTE: 

 Before attempting any operation with the 

remote, pull the plastic insulator strip out from between
