OPTIFLAME ELECTRIC FIREPLACE

OPERATION

REMOTE CONTROL

The Optiflame fireplace is supplied with a

radio frequency remote control (all models

except BF36E). This remote control has a

range of approximately 50ft. (15.25m), it does

not have to be pointed at the fireplace and can

pass through most obstacles (including walls).

It is supplied with one of 243 independent

frequencies to prevent interference with other

units. The frequency designation is indicated

on the back of the transmitter (FIGURE 1).

A. Remote Control Initialization

This procedure is required every time there is

a loss of power to the remote control in the

fireplace (i.e. power failure, breaker tripped,

main power switch is turned off)

1. Ensure that power is supplied through

main service panel.

2. Access the manual controls, (remove glass

doors if applicable) pull right hand edge of

right hand steel curtain towards the center

of unit. (FIGURE 2)

3. Locate manual controls refer to FIGURE 3.

4. Activate main power switch, red indicator

light 1 will flash.

5. Press ON button located on the remote

control transmitter (FIGURE 1). This will

synchronize the remote control transmitter

and receiver.

FIGURE 1 B. Remote Control Usage

The remote control operates the fireplace

levels sequentially. The level is increased

every time the ON button on the transmitter is

pressed. The fireplace can be turned off at

any point by pressing the OFF button on the

remote control transmitter.

FIGURE 1

OPTIFLAME ELECTRIC FIREPLACE

OPERATION

Level 1: The flame effect is turned on and the

first red indicator light is activated.

Level 2: The flame effect remains on, the

heater is activated to the low heat setting, and

the first and second red indicator lights are

activated.

Level 3: The flame effect remains on, the

heater is set to the high heat setting, and all

three red indicator lights are activated.

FIGURE 2 MANUAL CONTROLS

The fireplace can also be controlled in a similar

manner to the remote control with switches

located on the fireplace (FIGURE3).

A. Main Power Switch

ALL MODELS WITH REMOTE CONTROL.

Main on/off switch, supplies power to the

remote control receiving unit. When placed in

the on position level 1 indicator will flash.

ALL MODELS WITHOUT REMOTE

CONTROL.

Main on/off switch, activates the flame effect.

FIGURE 3 B. Heater Control Switch

ALL MODELS WITH REMOTE CONTROL.

Operates fireplace in the same manner as the

remote control transmitter. Pressing the left

side of this switch has the same effect as the

ON button on the remote control and the right

side has the same effect as the OFF button of

the remote control. Pressing once to the left

activates Level 1, twice activates Level 2,

three times activates Level 3. Pressing to the

right turns the fireplace off.

ALL MODELS WITHOUT REMOTE

CONTROL.

Heater ON/OFF switch, activates heater to

high level.

FIGURE 3

OPTIFLAME ELECTRIC FIREPLACE

OPERATION

WALL MOUNTED CONTROLS

The fireplace can be installed with wall-

mounted controls in addition to the controls

provided. These controls include wall

switches and thermostats.

A. Wall Mounted Thermostats

ALL MODELS WITH REMOTE CONTROL.

When the fireplace is set to Level 2, or Level 3

the wall mounted thermostat will control the

heat output of the unit. When the fireplace is

set to Level 2, or 3 the heater will not activate

until the wall mounted thermostat senses an

ambient temperature lower than the

temperature to which it is set.

B. Wall Mounted Switches

ALL MODELS WITHOUT REMOTE

CONTROL ONLY.

This model may be installed such that a wall-

mounted switch activates the flame effect and

a wall mounted thermostat activates the

heater.

RESETTING THE TEMPERATURE

CUTOUT SWITCH

The heater on this fireplace 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 Main Power switch (FIGURE 3)

to OFF and waiting 5 minutes before switching

it to ON.

The remote control will need to be re-initialized.

OPTIFLAME ELECTRIC FIREPLACE

If unit was operating prior to servicing allow at least 10 minutes for light bulbs and

heating elements to cool off to avoid accidental burning of skin.

Disconnect power before attempting any maintenance or cleaning to reduce the

risk of electric shock or damage to persons.

Light bulbs need to be replaced when you notice a dark section of the flame or

when the clarity and detail of the log exterior disappears. There are four bulbs

under the log set which generate the flames and embers.

It is a good idea to replace all of the light bulbs at one time if they are close to the

end of their rated life. Group replacement will reduce the number of times you

need to open the unit to replace the light bulbs.

TO REPLACE LIGHT BULBS

1. Open the steel curtains (remove glass doors if applicable).

2. Remove the log grate retaining screws and remove the log grate.

3. Pull the rear edge of the log set forward by grasping the ember bed by the

sides (handle the log set only by the ember bed and not the logs) and

pulling firmly until the rear tab pops out from under the back ledge, then lift

out.

4. Locate and examine to determine which bulbs require replacement in the

rear of the unit. If more room is needed the flame rod can be lifted up by

lifting up on the flame rod on the opposite side of the motor.

5. Unscrew bulb counter clockwise.

6. Insert new bulb screwing clockwise.

7. Replace the log set by inserting the front edge, pushing the back down

until the rear tab snaps under the back ledge and the logs are resting

against the mirror.

Quantity 4 clear chandelier or candelabra bulbs with an E-12 (small)

socket base, 60 watt rating. Example GE 60BC or Philips 60CTC

CAUTION DO NOT EXCEED 60 WATTS PER BULB

TO REPLACE MAIN ON/OFF SWITCH

1. Open the steel curtains (remove glass doors if applicable).

2. Remove the log grate retaining screws and remove the log grate.

3. Pull the rear edge of the log set forward by grasping the ember bed by the

sides (handle the log set only by the ember bed and not the logs) and

pulling firmly until the rear tab pops out from under the back ledge, then lift

out.

4. Remove the light bulb closest to the main on/off switch for easier access.

5. Locate the cover plate by the switches and remove the mounting screws.

6. Remove the cover plate.

7. Reach hand into the opening and locate the main on/off switch.

8. Depress the retainer clips on the rear of the switch and push the switch

out of the bottom cover.
