Control Knob ‘C’:- Controls the Thermostat setting.
Turning the control knob Anti Clockwise will decrease the temperature setting, turning the control knob Clockwise
will increase the temperature setting.
Control Knob ‘D’:- Controls the intensity of the ame eect.
Turning the control knob Anti Clockwise increases the ame eect, turning the control knob Clockwise will decrease
the ame eect.
When the water in the tank and in the sump runs out the main lamps will go out. See instructions under ‘Maintenance’, ‘ Filling
the water tank’. When this procedure is complete, the main lamps will illuminate but it will take 30 seconds before the ames
return.
Setting the Thermostat
Plug in and switch on the re to the full heat setting. Turn the Control Knob ‘C’ fully clockwise (max temperature setting) to
warm the room rapidly. When the room temperature has reached the desired level, turn the thermostat knob back slowly until
you hear the thermostat just click o. The heater will then maintain the room temperature at the chosen level.
Note: Should your heater fail to come on when the thermostat is at a low setting, this may be due to the room temperature
being higher then the thermostat setting
Thermal safety cut-out
A thermal safety cut-out is incorporated in the fan heater to prevent damage due to overheating. This can happen if the heat
outlet was restricted in any way or if the chimney ue has not been blocked o eectively. If the cut-out operates, unplug the
heater from the socket outlet and allow approximately 10 minutes before reconnecting. Before switching the heater back on
remove any obstruction that may be restricting the heat outlet, then continue normal operation.
Caution: In order to avoid a hazard due to inadvertent resetting of the thermal cutout, this appliance must not be supplied
through an external switching device, such as a timer, or connected to a switch that is regularly switched on and o by the
utility.
Tips for using your appliance.
1. With the ame setting on minimum the unit will use approximately 40ml of water per hour and will last 3 times as long than
when it is at maximum ame setting.
2. Do not tilt or move the re while there is water in the tank or sump.
3. Make sure that the re is on a level oor.
4. The ame control knob ‘D’ Fig.2 may be turned up or down to give a more realistic eect.
5. Sometimes the ames appear more real when the ame control knob is turned down.
6. Give the ame generator some time to react to changes you may make on the ame control knob.
Maintenance
WARNING: ALWAYS DISCONNECT FROM THE POWER SUPPLY BEFORE BEGINNING ANY MAINTENANCE
Changing lamps.
If the smoke appears grey or colourless it may be that one or more lamps have failed.
You can check for lamp failure as follows.
1. Leaving the ame eect on, lift out the fuelbed and water tank. (See Fig.3)
2. It should be possible to view the lamps with the nozzle (See Fig.4) in place and observe which one needs to be changed.
3. Put Switch ‘A’ in the ‘OFF’ position, and unplug the re from the mains.
4. Leave the appliance for 20 minutes to allow the lamps to cool down before removing them.
5. Remove the sump as described in the Cleaning Section.
6. Remove the defective lamp, by gently lifting vertically and disengaging the pins from the lamp holder, (See Fig.4 and 4a).
Replace with a Dimplex OPTIMYST, 12V, 50W, Gu5.3 base, 8º beam angle, coloured lamp. (Purchased from www.dimplex.co.uk
under the section ‘After Sales Service’, details of how to purchase the lamps are contained therein.)
7. Carefully insert the two pins of the new lamp into the two holes in the lamp holder. Push rmly in place. (See Fig.4 and 4a).
8. Replace the sump, nozzle, water tank and fuelbed.
9. Switch on.
Filling the water tank.
When the water tank is empty, the ame and smoke eect shuts o and you will hear 2 audible beeps, follow these steps.
1. Press Switch ‘A’ to (0) (See Fig.2)
2. Gently lift out the fuelbed and set aside carefully. (See Fig.3)
3. Remove the water tank by lifting upwards and outwards.
4. Place the water tank in sink and remove cap, Anti-clockwise to open. (See Fig.5)
5. Fill tank with ltered tap water only. This is necessary to prolong the life of the ame and smoke producing unit.
The water should be ltered through a conventional domestic water lter unit and the lter should be replaced regularly.
6. Screw the cap back on, do not overtighten.
7. Return the tank to the sump, with the tank cap facing down and the at side of the tank facing outward.

Cleaning.
WARNING – ALWAYS DISCONNECT FROM THE POWER SUPPLY BEFORE CLEANING THE HEATER.
We recommend cleaning the following components once every 2 weeks, particularly in hard water areas:-
Water Tank, Sump, Nozzle, Tank cap and seal, Air lter.
For general cleaning use a soft clean duster – never use abrasive cleaners. To remove any accumulation of dust or u the soft
brush attachment of a vacuum cleaner should occasionally be used to clean the outlet grille of the fan heater.
