Generally the fire will be placed against a wall. Place the heater on a sturdy, flat
surface. The aspiration grilles are located on the bottom; make sure they are
never blocked! So do not place the fire on high-pile carpets and never on soft
surfaces like mattresses, cushions or blankets. The following applies to the
Barcelona with a mantel: the fireplace must be able to suction in air from the
rear; do not therefore position flush against a wall, and instead position 1 to 2
cm away (one skirting-board thickness is sufficient). If placed flush against a wall
the fireplace will overheat and switch itself off, see ‘Safety device’.
Choose a suitable location for the fireplace, at least one metre from all
obstructions, walls and flammable materials (see safety instructions) and in the
vicinity of a 16 Amp (at least) fused, earthed electrical socket (protected by a 30
mA earth leakage circuit breaker).
OPERATING
Check that the details on the data plate
correspond to those of the electrical supply
which you wish to use for the fireplace. Do not
use the same connection for any other
equipment.
The control switches are located behind the
metal panel on the front of the heater. Pull
out the panel and you will find three control
switches.
By pressing the bottom switches you will make the following happen:
Switch 1: switch on the power supply to the heater and the flame
effect (without heating) (O depressed is OFF - I depressed
is ON).
Switches 1+2: switch on 1000 Watt heating, with flame effect
Switches 1+2+3: switch on 2000 Watt heating, with flame effect
Check whether switch 1 is set to OFF (O depressed)
Connect the plug to an earthed power outlet.
Press switch 1 and, depending on what you want, switches 2 and 3 to start using
the heater.
Switch off the heater by resetting all switches to the OFF position. Remove the
plug from the power outlet; do this whenever the heater is not in use!
Warning: This heater is not equipped with a device to control the room
temperature. Do not use this heater in small rooms when they are occupied by
persons not capable of leaving the room on their own, unless constant supervision is
provided.
