Dimplex MCFSTV1, Manual

General

Unpack the heater carefully and retain the packaging for possible future 

use, in the event of moving or returning the fire to your supplier.

These models are designed to be free standing and are normally 

positioned against a wall. 

The fire incorporates a flame effect, which can be used with or without 

heati

ng, so that the comforting effect may be enjoyed at any time of 

the year. Using the flame effect on its own only requires little electricity.

A choice of 600W or 1.2KW heat output is provided by the fan heater, 

which is located at the bottom of the unit.  

Before connecting the heater check that the supply voltage is the same 

as that stated on the heater. 

Please note: Used in an environment wh

ere background noise is very 

low, it may be possible to hear a sound which is related to the operation 

of the flame effect. This is normal and should not be a cause for concern.
