immediately call the 24-hour Poisons Information Centre on 13 11 26 (in

Australia) or 0800 764 766 (in New Zealand) for fast, expert advice.

e.g. that the screw or other mechanical fastener is tightened. Do not use if the

• Dispose of used button batteries immediately and safely. Flat batteries can

still be dangerous.

CAUTION: No obvious symptoms

child's oesophagus (food pipe).

There are no specific symptoms associated with this. The child might:

• cough, gag or drool a lot

• be sick

• point to their throat or stomach

• have a pain in their abdomen, chest or throat

• be tired or lethargic

• lose their appetite or have a reduced appetite

• not want to eat solid food/be unable to eat solid food

These types of symptoms vary or fluctuate. with the pain increasing and then

subsiding.

A specific symptom to button and coin battery ingestion is vomiting fresh

(bright red) blood. If the child does this seek immediate help. The lack of clear

symptoms is why it is important to be vigilant with 'flat' or spare button or

coin batteries in the home and the products that contain them.

General Information

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 heating, so

that the comforting effect may be enjoyed at any time of the year. Using the flame

effect on its own requires little electricity.

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 fan heater & flame

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

Electrical Connection

WARNING: THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED

This heater must be used on an AC ~ supply only and the voltage marked on the

heater must correspond to the supply voltage. Before switching on, please read the

safety warnings at the start of the instruction manual and operating instructions to

follow. Please retain this user’s guide for future reference

If you settle this appliance in an existing chimney space, we recommend that;

1. You have your chimney cleaned by a competent chimney sweep.

2. You block off the chimney flue.

This procedure is important for the efficient operation of the heating unit and will also

reduce heat loss up the chimney.

Ensure that all packing items are removed (read any warning labels carefully). Retain

all packing for possible future use e.g. in the event of moving or returning the appliance

to your supplier.

Light Emitting Diode

This fire is fitted with LED (Light Emitting Diode) bulbs in place of traditional

incandescent bulbs. These generate the same light levels as traditional bulbs, but use

a fraction of the energy consumed. These LED lamps are maintenance free and should

not require replacing during the life of the product.

WARNING: FALLING OR TIPPING APPLIANCES CAN CAUSE INJURY OR DEATH OF

YOUNG CHILDREN, PLEASE ENSURE CHILDREN DO NOT CLIMB, HANG OR STAND

ON THIS PRODUCT.

Thermal Safety Cut-out

A thermal safety cut-out is incorporated in the fan heater to prevent damage due

to overheating. This can happen if the heat outlet was restricted in any way. If the

cut-out operates, unplug the heater from the socket outlet and allow approximately

10 minutes before reconnecting. Before switching the heater back on remove any

obstruction that may be restricting the heat outlet, then continue normal operation.

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.
