General Information

Only use ltered water in this appliance.

This model is designed to be free standing and is normally positioned near a wall.

Always ensure that the appliance is sitting on a level surface.

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 ame effect. This is normal and should not be a cause for concern.

If this product experiences a power surge for whatever reason the product may cut-out. This is a normal safety feature

and the product will resume operation after 30 seconds.

Once installed, never move this appliance or lay on its back, without draining the water from sump and water tank.

If you intend not using the appliance for longer than 2 weeks, drain the water from sump and water tank and dry the

sump.

The water tank, sump, sump lid, tank cap and air lters must be cleaned once every two weeks, particularly in hard

water areas.

The appliance should never be operated if the lamps are not working.

The lamps should be regularly inspected as described under ‘Maintenance’ and ‘Changing lamps’.

The sump and the water tank in this product are treated with a biocidal product, Silver Biocide. This conforms with the

latest relevant ISO standard

Installation Instructions

This section describes how to set up your re.

BEFORE YOU START

1. Ensure that all packing items are removed (read any warning labels carefully) and retain all packing for possible

future use e.g. in the event of moving house or returning the appliance to your supplier.

2. Before connecting to the mains supply, check that the supply voltage is the same as that stated on the appliance.

INSTALLATION

Place the appliance against a wall.

Connecting the Transducer Unit + Lamps

1. Release the two red tabs by turning them by 90 degrees (see Fig 2)

2. Lift out the Sump Nozzle (Fig 3)

3. Insert lamps into lamp holders (Fig 4), carefully locating the pins into the holes (Fig 4a)

4. Push lamps rmly into place

5. Place the Transducer Unit into the sump and join the cable to the connector on the sump (Fig 5)

6. To ensure that the Transducer Unit is correctly placed in the sump, the tab on the Transducer Unit should be lined

up with the moulded recess in the sump (Fig 5a).

7. Ensure that the cable is not placed above the disc on the Transducer Unit (Fig 5b). To prevent the cable becoming

pinched between the nozzle and the sump, place the cable in the slot in the wall of the sump.

8. Replace the Sump Nozzle and secure it by turning the two red tabs by 90 degrees (Fig 6)

Filling the Water Tank

9. Place Water Tank in sink and remove cap (turn anti-clockwise to open) (Fig 7)

10. Fill Water Tank with ltered tap water only. This is necessary to prolong the life of the ame and smoke effect

producing unit. The water should be ltered through a conventional domestic water lter unit and the lter should be

replaced regularly. Distilled water must not be used.

11. Screw the cap back on – do not overtighten.

12. Place the Water Tank in the Sump, with the tank cap facing down and the at side of the tank facing outward (Fig 8)

Assembling the re

13. Place the Fuelbed on top of the Water Tank and Mist Nozzle (Fig 9)

Connect the power cable to the appropriate power connector at the back of the appliance and

Plug the power cable into a 13amp/240volt outlet. The appliance is now ready for use.

Operating the Fire

This section describes how to activate your re using either the manual controls or remote control.

MANUAL CONTROLS

The manual controls are located beneath the hinged ap.

(See Fig.10 for Manual Control lay out)

Switch ‘A’:- Controls the electricity supply to the Fire.

Note: This switch must be in the ‘ON’ ( I ) position for the Fire to operate.

Switch ‘B’:- Press once to turn on the ame effect. This will be indicated by an audible beep. Although the main

lights operate immediately it will take a further 30 seconds before the ame effect starts.

Press to put re in to standby mode. This will be indicated by one beep.

Control Knob ‘C’:- Controls the intensity of the ame effect.

Turning the control knob to the left increases the ame effect, turning the control knob to the right will

decrease the ame effect.

GETTING THE DESIRED FLAME EFFECT

1. The ame control knob ‘C’ (Fig.10) may be turned up or down to give a more realistic effect.

2. Generally the ames appear more realistic when the ame control is turned down.

3. Give the ame generator time to react to changes you may make.

4. The appliance will use less water if the ame effect is set to a lower level (control knob ‘C’).

5. Do not tilt or move the appliance while there is water in the tank or sump.

6. Make sure that the appliance is on a level oor.

REMOTE CONTROL OPERATION

On the control panel, Switch A (see Fig.10) must be in the ‘ON’ ( I ) position in order for the remote control to operate.

There are 3 buttons on the remote control. (See Fig.12) To operate correctly the remote must be pointed towards the

front of the grate. (See Fig 17). The remote control functions are as follows:

Press once to turn on Flame effect.

This will be indicated by one beep.

Standby

This will be indicated by one beep.
