Installation & Precautions
Carefully remove the fire from the packing, checking that neither the heater nor the power cable has been damaged during transport. Do not
operate the fire if either is damaged. Please bear in mind the weight of the fire before removal from the packaging and installation. Consider if
help is required. Any alteration to the power cable should only be done by a qualified electrician and to the Flamerite Fires guidelines stated
below. Your fire is guaranteed for one year from the date of purchase. In the unlikely event of a breakdown you have access to our customer
services team, simply call 01543 251122 during office hours, 9am – 5pm or e-mail on
The accessories are found in a box
that is packed at the side of the fire.
INSTALLATION
Where a chimney is not blocked off completely it will cause the heater to cut out during use. ONLY if installing into a chimney and you are not
sure that you have cut off the draw 100% we recommend covering the slots in the rear and at either side.
Automatic safety cut out: The heater is fitted with an automatic cut out to prevent any damage due to overheating. The element will continually
and automatically cut out if the airflow is obstructed. Never cover the air outlets. To reset, switch the fire off, disconnect from the mains supply,
remove the cause of the overheating, check the micro switches and allow to cool for a suitable period then switch the fire back on.
Caution:
In
order to avoid a hazard due to inadvertent resetting of the thermal cut out, the appliance must not be supplied through an external switching
device, such as a timer, or connected to circuit regularly switched on and off by a utility.
Electrical connections. Your appliance comes fitted with a plug that incorporates a 13A fuse. The replacement fuses must be 13A and ASTA
approved. If the fuse cover is lost the plug must not be used until a replacement cover, of the same colour, is obtained from an electrical retailer.
The appliance is fitted with a moulded plug if it is necessary cut off the plug, for any reason, it must be discarded immediately with the fuse
removed. Under no circumstances should any attempt be made to reuse the plug, do not insert into any 13A socket as this could cause a hazard. If
the mains cable is damaged it must be replaced by the manufacturer or an authorised technical service centre.

As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this appliance may not correspond with the colour markings in your plug proceed as follows: -
•
The wire which is coloured green and yellow must be connected to the terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter E, or
coloured green or coloured green and yellow, or marked with the earth symbol

Using in a Fireplace Suite:
Place into the suite from the back. Secure using the 4 x 12mm screws provided, one at each flange corner.
Using as a Hole in the Wall: The inset dimensions are: depth 170mm, height 730mm and width 610mm. There must be enough clearance for the
fire to comfortably fit into the hole. DO NOT SQUEEZE INTO THE OPENING this may deform the case and stop the glass from moving correctly. The
height at which you may wish to fix the fire in the wall is up to you, though we recommend anywhere from 400-500mm from the floor to the
bottom of the fire opening (not the fire case itself). Prior to sealing/plastering the wall around the fire, it must be secured into place using the 4 x
36mm screws and rawl plugs provided. Four larger holes should be visible at each corner of the opening, two on each side of the flange. Place the
fire into the hole, mark off where the fixing holes are to be drilled. Remove the fire and drill the holes. When done push the rawl plugs into the
drilled holes, lift and secure the fire into place.
Please now test the fire and follow the rest of the instructions below before permanently
boarding/sealing/plastering in place.
