CAUTION: DO NOT CONNECTTHE APPLIANCE TOTHE ELECTRICAL SUPPLY AT
THIS TIME
To ensure the appliance is positively located into position, it is necessary to secure it in place using
the double-sided neoprene strips included in the instruction pack.
Peel off the adhesive backing from one side of each strip and apply to the periphery of the REAR of
the appliance frame, as shown in figure 1. Ensure that the strips are not applied any closer than 5mm
(1/4”) from the edge of the frame, attaching the strips closer may present problems when fitting the
decorative trim.Tear off any excess lengths of strip to form a neat border around the frame. Before
finally fitting the appliance into its location, remove the remaining strips of adhesive backing, ensure
that the mains cable and plug are properly routed, locate the fire into the opening and press firmly
around the edge of the frame to allow the strips to adhere to the back panel of the surround.
The appliance may be supplied with a decorative frame in a variety of finishes.
IMPORTANT : Due to the possibility of sharp edges, care should be taken when handling the frame components.The use of
protective gloves is recommended.
Blenheim,Traditional and Elegance models : If not pre-fitted, the clip-on frame pieces should be hooked over the outer edges of the fire-
frame, and pushed firmly home.The sides should be fixed first, followed by the top bar, which overlaps the sides. Push firmly home. A plastic
protective film may be applied to the outside of the frame and should be removed at this stage. Place the firefront ashpan centrally below the
bars.The firefront and ashpan are free-standing.
Lulworth models : Remove the protective film from the frame, bars and ashpan and place the frame on a flat surface. Slide each bar on to
the tags on one leg of the frame. Lift the other leg until the bars meet with the tags on this leg. Do not bend the bars. Slide the bars care-
fully on to the tags. Screw the handle on to the ashpan.Attach the frame to the appliance using the four magnetic pieces provided, on to each
corner of the appliance frame. Place the ashpan centrally below the bars.
Remove the loose pebbles from their packaging. Position the pebbles onto the white fuel bed shelf and down behind the frame bars, so as to
create a realistic effect.The pebbles should not be placed over the holes in the fuel bed, which are below the curved panel. These should be
left at least partially un-obscured, so that the effect can be seen on the rear panel.
Check that the fan outlet is not covered or obstructed in any way and ensure the power to the fire is switched on.
The appliance is controlled using four switches, mounted under the lift up hood.The left switch (OI) controls the main power to the fire and
switches on the fuel effect, which can be used independently of heat for visual effect only.The second switch (*) operates the fan blower with-
out heat, which can be used in the summer for cool air circulation. The switch marked with a single bar (I) operates the fan heater on the LOW
setting.The switch marked with two bars (II) operates the fan heater on the HIGH setting.
To operate the fire, the left switch must be turned on first, followed by the second switch to start the blower, if required.To obtain heat from
the appliance, the Iswitch must then be operated for LOW of heat, followed by the II switch for the HIGH setting. It is not possible to obtain
heat from the appliance without first switching on the main power switch (OI) and the fan blower switch (*) in conjunction with either the
LOW (I) or both the LOW and HIGH (II) switches.
This appliance has a safety cutout system fitted, which will activate if the air inlets or outlets are obstructed. For safety reasons the fire will NOT
switch on again automatically, the following procedure must be carried out before the fire can be operated.
NOTE:The visual effect will remain operational if the cutout is activated; only the fan heater is prevented from working.
Switch OFF the appliance at the wall socket or outlet. 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.
