Please note: Used in an environment where background
noise is very low, it may be possible to hear the motor
which

operates the flame effect. This is normal and should

not

be a cause for concern.

A 2kw fan heater discreetly positioned in the canopy of the
fire provides heating in cold weather. Switching allows half
or full heat.

Before connecting the heater check that the supply voltage
is the same as that stated on the heater.
