By pressing the TEMPERATURE ICON again you will be able to adjust the heat temperature to your desired temperature.

MEMORY FUNCTION

This unit has a memory function that allows you to turn off the MAIN POWER and retains all the other function settings (excluding the TIMER function).

• When the unit’s main power is OFF, press the POWER ICON once on the insert control panel or on the remote control to power the unit ON and “wake up” the individual function at the last setting. Press the icon again to adjust it and press the main POWER ICON on the insert or on the remote control to turn the unit OFF and save the new setting into memory.
• When the unit is powered ON, the LED readout will show the saved temperature setting. If a temperature setting was not saved, it will show the flame brightness setting saved in memory. If neither one has a setting saved to memory, then only the ember bed will glow (as a power light indicator).
• To reset the memory, hold down the main POWER ICON for 10 seconds at any time. When this happens, the LED readout will blink with three zeros three times the unit will be shut down.
• Another way to reset the memory is to unplug the unit from the wall.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

• Make sure the unit is turned OFF, unplugged and the heating elements of heater are cool whenever you are cleaning the heater or fireplace.
• Clean the metal trim using a water-dampened soft, clean cloth. DO NOT use brass polish or household cleaners as these products will damage the metal trim.
• The motors used on the fan and the flame generator assembly are pre-lubricated for extended bearing life and require no further lubrication. However, periodic cleaning/vacuuming of the fan/heater and air intake/ output vents are recommended.
• When the heater is not in use, the power cord should be stored properly to avoid contact with hot or sharp objects.
• Any other servicing should be performed by an authorized service representative.

Electrical Connection

A 15-Amp, 120-volt, 60 Hz circuit with a properly grounded outlet is required. Preferably, the fireplace will be on a dedicated circuit as other appliances on the same circuit may cause the circuit breaker to trip or the fuse to blow when the heater is in operation. The unit comes standard with 6-ft. three- wire cord, exiting from the rear of the fireplace. DO NOT exceed the current rating of the current tap.

Grounding Instructions

This heater is for use on 120 volt. The cord has a plug as shown below. See illustration or grounding instruction. An adapter as shown at C is available for connecting three-blade grounding type plugs to two-slot receptacles. The green grounding plug extending from the adapter must be connected to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box. The adapter should not be used if a three-slot grounded receptacle is available.
