Dimplex Yeominster Fuel Effect Fire

Model: YEO20

Important Safety Advice

When using electrical appliances, basic precautions

should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire,

electrical shock, and injury to persons, including the

following:

If the appliance is damaged, check with the supplier

before installation and operation.

Do not use outdoors.

Do not use in the immediate surroundings of a bath,

shower or swimming pool.

Do not locate the heater immediately below a fixed socket

outlet or connection box.

This heater carries a Warning ‘DO NOT COVER THE

HEATER’to alert the user to the risk of overheating that

exists if the heater is accidentally covered.

The guard on this appliance conforms to the

requirements of BS 1945 (1971) and satisfies the heating

appliances (fireguards) regulations 1973. The guard is

to prevent the risk of fire or injury from burns, and no

part of it should be permanently removed.

This appliance is not intended for use by children or

other persons without assistance or supervision if their

physical, sensory or mental capabilities prevent them

from using it safely. Children should be supervised to

ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

Do not use this heater in series with a thermal control, a

program controller, a timer or any other device that

switches on the heat automatically, since a fire risk

exists when the heater is accidentally covered or

displaced.

Ensure that furniture, curtains or other combustible

material are positioned no closer than 1 metre from the

heater.

In the event of a fault unplug the heater.

Unplug the heater when not required for long periods.

Although this heater complies with safety standards,

we do not recommend its use on deep pile carpets or

on long hair type of rugs.

The appliance must be positioned so that the plug is

accessible.

If the supply cord is damaged it must be replaced by the

manufacturer or service agent or a similarly qualified

person in order to avoid a hazard.

Keep the supply cord away from the front of the heater.

Introduction

Unpack the heater carefully and retain all packaging for future

use.

Always ensure that the heater is stood on a firm, level base

near to, but not directly beneath, a suitable mains supply

socket.

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 and

operating instructions.

In the event of replacing the fuse in the plug supplied, a 13

amp fuse approved by ASTA to BS1362 must be used.

Using the heater

Before switching on remove the fuel effect (two screws - see

Fig. 1) and check that the lamp and flicker rotor are positioned

correctly.

The flicker rotor should sit horizontal on its pin and spin freely

without fouling its mounting brackets. If necessary, adjust

the bracket by bending slightly.

Refit the fuel effect by inserting the front edge first, then secure

with the screws. Ensure that all packing items are removed

(read any warning labels carefully) and that the radiant

elements and fuel effect are positioned correctly, otherwise

damage may occur.

Operation

When you are certain that you have completed the installation,

plug in and switch on at the wall socket.

The fuel effect will light.

The flicker rotor will begin to rotate after a minute or so.

Radiant elements

Each of the two radiant elements provides 1000 watts of heat.

A switch is set to ON when the red dot is visible.

For full heat, set both switches to ON - see Fig. 2.

Switch off at the wall socket to turn the heater off completely.

Unplug from the wall socket when not in use.

Maintenance

WARNING : ALWAYS DISCONNECT FROM THE POWER

SUPPLY BEFORE ATTEMPTING ANY MAINTENANCE.

Removing the guard

To remove the guard, remove the two screws along the bottom

edge of the guard, then swing the guard upwards to gain

access to the elements - see Fig. 3.

Replace the guard in reverse order.

Removing the elements

The element holders are spring loaded. To remove an

element, grip one end using a soft cloth to protect the surface,

then push carefully but firmly to one side until the other end

disengages from its socket. Withdraw the element carefully -

see Fig. 4. Refit in reverse order.

Cleaning the reflector

The reflector may be more easily cleaned if the elements

are first removed (see previous). Wipe the reflector with a

warm soapy cloth, then buff with a soft dry cloth - see Fig. 5.

DO NOT use abrasive cleaning powders or metal polish.

Lamp replacement

Remove the fuel effect (two screws) and replace the defective

lamp with a 60 watt, 220/250 volt, 2 pin bayonet cap (BC)

fuel effect lamp. Ensure that the flicker rotor spins freely,

then reassemble.

Cleaning

Before cleaning the heater, disconnect it by pulling out the

plug from the wall socket. Do not use detergents, abrasive

cleaning powder or polish of any kind on the body of the

heater.

Allow the heater to cool, then wipe with a dry cloth to remove

dust and a damp cloth (not wet) to clean off stains. Be

careful not to allow moisture into the heater.

To clean the reflector, see ‘Maintenance’.
