WARNING:INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
The appliance is supplied with a pre-wired three pin BS1363 plug (13Amp fuse rated) and 1.6 meters of electrical flex. It is therefore necessary for a suitable electrical socket to be located within this distance of the appliance and be easily accessible. The stove may be installed on a combustible or non-combustible floor, however the heater outlet is underneath the stove and certain types of floor covering may be affected by the heat produced by the stove. The ability of the floor covering to withstand the heat produced by the stove should be ascertained before proceeding with the installation of the stove. If in doubt then the stove should be mounted on a non-combustible hearth or plinth which extends for at least 150mm in front of the stove. This appliance should be positioned on a firm level sur-face. If the stove is to be sited in a fire surround then the suitability of the surround for use with electrical heaters should be established with the fire surround manufacturer. If fitted into an open draught fireplace, it is advisable to block off the chimney to reduce the risk of draught through the stove which may cause the safety cut out system in the fan heater to operate. If you are placing the heater in an alcove, make sure that there is at least 150mm of space on all sides to ensure good air circulation.

Leave the fire OFF for a period of no less than 10 minutes, ensuring all obstructions are removed. Switch the appliance ON at the wall. Ensure the appliance is turned ON at the control switches. If the fire fails to operate correctly, repeat the above procedure. If an attempt to switch on the appliance is made before the safety cutout has reset, the appliance may cutout for a further period of time. If the sequence has been followed correctly and the appliance still fails to function, check the fuse in the wall outlet. If this is not the cause, call an electrician or maintenance engineer.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
| Fire is not switching on | Ensure the mains switch is on Replace the fuse in the plug |
| Fire is not emitting any heat | The fire is fitted with an energy saving thermostat. If the temperature in the room is higher than the temperature selected on the fire, then the thermostat will stop the heater from turning on. |
| Fire shuts off after a period of time | Check that the temperature is not set onto the lower settings. If the room is warm enough the thermostat will stop the fire switching the heat on. Check that the chimney/ flue is blocked off. |
| Fire seems noisy | There is a level of noise when the flame effect is in use, caused by a motor that helps generate the effect. This noise will be heard when there is not other background noise.There is a higher level of noise associated with the heater motor, this is due to the air flow required when the heat is selected. |
| Remote is not operating | Before the remote will operate the plastic insulating sheet needs to be removed. Check or replace batteries. |
