OPERATION

This section will explain the function of each convent control.

To access the controls, open the upper grill by pulling near the top, forward and down.

A. MAIN ON/OFF SWITCH

The on/off switch supplies power to all fireplace functions (heater & flame).

B. FLAME SPEED CONTROL (not available on some models)

Turn the flame speed control knob to adjust the flame speed to the desired level.

C. FLAME LIGHT DIMMER CONTROL

Turn the flame brightness control to increase or decrease the brightness of the flame

and embers.

D. HEATER ON/OFF SWITCH

The heater on/off switch supplies power to the heating unit when the main on/off

switch (A) is in the on position.

E. HEATER THERMOSTAT CONTROL

To adjust the temperature to your individual requirements, turn the thermostat

control clockwise all the way to turn in 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 its setting. For

additional heat, turn clockwise until you hear the click again and the heater will turn

on. To turn the heater off, rotate the knob fully counter clockwise.

RESETTING THE TEMPERATURE CUTOFF

This unit is equipped with a thermostat which controls the temperature of the room.

It does this by turning the heater on and off. The heater is protected with a safety

device to prevent overheating. Should the heater overheat, an automatic cut out will

turn the heater off and it will not come back on without being reset. It can be reset

by switching the ON/OFF SWITCH to OFF and waiting 5 minutes before switching

the unit back on.

CAUTION

If you need to continuously reset the heater, unplug the unit and call your local

dealer.

Allow at least 10 minutes for light bulbs to cool off before touching bulbs to avoid

accidental burning of skin.
