If the supply cord is damaged it must be replaced by the
manufacturer or service agent or similarly qualified
person in order to avoid a hazard.
Caution: In order to avoid a hazard due to inadvertent
resetting of the thermal cut-out, this appliance must not
be supplied through an external switching device, such
as a timer, or connected to a circuit that is regularly
switched on and off by the utility.
The appliance must not to be located beneath a socket
outlet.
Where an appliance is Recessed, necessity to allow
disconnection of the appliance from the electrical supply
is required. Incorporate a switch in the fixed wiring in
accordance with the Wiring regulations.
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.
The fire incorporates a flame effect, which can be used with or
without heating, 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.
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 a sound which is related
to the operation of the flame effect. This is normal and should
not be a cause for concern.
