When using electrical appliances,

basic precautions should always

be followed to reduce the risk of

fire, electric shock, and injury to

persons, including the following:

①Read all instructions before

using the Convex In-Stud

replace.

②The heater is hot when in use.

To avoid burns, do not let bare

skin touch hot surfaces. The trim

around the heater outlet becomes

hot during heater operation.

Keep combustible materials, such

as furniture, pillows, bedding,

papers, clothes, and curtains at

least three (3) feet (0.9 m) from

the front of the unit.

③ Extreme caution is necessary

when any heater is used by or near

children and whenever the unit is

left operating and unattended.

④Always disconnect power to

the replace when not in use for

extended period of time.

⑤Do not operate with a

damaged cord or plug (for units

supplied with a cord), or if the

heater has malfunctioned, or if

the replace has been dropped or

damaged in any manner. Contact

Dimplex Customer Services at

1-888-346-7539 immediately.

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS

⑥Do not use outdoors.

⑦Never locate heater where it

may fall into a bathtub or other

water container.

⑧Do not run the cord under

carpeting (for units supplied with

a cord). Do not cover cord with

throw rugs, runners, or the like.

Arrange cord away from trafc

area and where it will not be

tripped over.

⑨To disconnect the unit, turn

the controls off, and then remove

the plug from the outlet or switch

off at main power supply panel if

the unit is hard wired.

⑩Do not insert or allow foreign

objects to enter any ventilation

or exhaust opening as this may

cause an electric shock or re, or

damage to the heater.

⑪ To prevent a possible re, do

not block air intake or exhaust in

any manner.

⑫All electrical heaters have

hot and arcing or sparking parts

inside. Do not use in areas where

gasoline, paint, or ammable

liquids are used or stored or

where the unit will be exposed to

ammable vapors.

CAUTION

RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK

DO NOT OPEN

NO USER-SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS

⑬ Do not modify the replace.

Use it only as described in this

manual. Any other use not

recommended by the manufacturer

may cause re, electric shock or

injury to persons.

⑭This unit may have a

polarized plug (one blade is wider

than the other). The plug will t in

a polarized outlet only one way.

If the plug does not t fully in the

outlet, reverse the plug. If it still

does not t, contact a qualied

electrician to install the proper

outlet.

⑮ Do not change the plug in

any way. Avoid the use of an

extension cord. Extension cords

may overheat and cause a risk of

re. If you must use an extension

cord, the cord must be No. 14

AWG minimum size and rated no

less than 1875 Watts.

⑯Do not burn wood or other

materials in the replace.

⑰Do not strike the glass front.

⑱ Always use a certied

electrician for build-in hard-wired

installation.

⑲Always use properly

grounded, fused and polarized

outlets.

⑳Disconnect all main power

supply (unplug the unit or switch

off at main service panel) before

performing any cleaning,

maintenance or relocation of the

unit.

21 Do not operate the replace

without the glass assembly and/or

frame.

22 When transporting or storing

the unit and cord, keep in a dry

place, free from excessive

vibration and store so as to avoid

damage.

23 Do not put combustible

material, liquid, or small articles

such as sand inside glass

assembly.

Fireplace Installation

!NOTE: A 15 Amp, 120

Volt circuit is required. A

dedicated circuit is preferred

but not essential in all cases.

A dedicated circuit will be

required if, after installation,

the circuit breaker trips or the

fuse blows on a regular basis

when the heater is operating.

Additional appliances on the

same circuit may exceed the

current rating of the circuit

breaker.

WARNING: Ensure the

power cord is not installed so

that it is pinched or against a

sharp edge and ensure that

the power cord is stored or

secured to avoid tripping or

snagging to reduce the risk of

re, electric shock or injury to

persons.

Construction and electrical

outlet wiring must comply

with local building codes and

other applicable regulations to

reduce the risk of re, electric

shock and injury to persons.

Do not attempt to wire your

own new outlets or circuits. To

reduce the risk of re, electric

shock or injury to persons,

always use a licensed

electrician.

Quick Reference Guide

① Before using the In-Stud

replace verify:

• Are the circuit breakers for the

unit on?

• Are the light bulbs loose? (to

check, follow the instructions

for replacing the light bulbs

under the maintenance section

of this manual)

②The heater may emit a slight,

harmless odor when rst used.

This odor is a normal condition

caused by the initial heating of

internal heater parts.

③The information regarding the

model of your unit can be found

on the model and serial number

plate located on the side of the

unit. See Page 3 for an illustration

on how to locate the rating plate.
