2. HANDLING AND UNPACKING
Before continuing any further with the installation of this heater please read the
following:
Important instructions.
The approximate lifting weight (kg) of the heater parts are listed below:
Model Heat engine Fascia Optional Spacer (See section 4)
Petrus 7.7 10.0 1.0*
Dream 7.7 12.4 1.0*
One person should be sufficient to lift the heater. If for any reason this weight is
considered too heavy then obtain assistance.
When lifting always keep your back straight. Bend your legs and not your back.
Avoid twisting at the waist. It is better to reposition your feet.
Avoid upper body / top heavy bending. Always bend from the knees rather than the
waist. Do not lean forward or sideways whilst handling the heater.
Always grip with the palm of the hand. Do not use the tips of fingers for support.
Always keep the heater as close to the body as possible. This will minimise the
cantilever action.
Use gloves to provide additional grip.
Always use assistance if required.

for maintenance and cleaning.

this appliance must not be supplied through an external switching device, such as a
timer, or connected to a circuit that is regularly switched on and off by the utility.

7. HEATER DIMENSIONS
8. WHERE AND HOW CAN I FIT THE HEATER?
Important: Before continuing with the installation of this heater please ensure
that you have completed the information on the last page of this guide.
Please read this section thoroughly before positioning the heater.
Do I need any tools?
Depending upon the chosen method of installation you may need the following tools: -
For Optional Spacer frame or screw fixed installations you will need a cross head
screwdriver. This should have a number 2 size tip.
If wire fixing and drilling into brickwork you will need a power drill (preferably with
hammer action) and appropriate size drill bit for the wall plugs supplied.
Where and how can you fit the heater?
Q Can the heater be installed into a ‘hole in the wall’ (elevated opening)?
A We do not recommend the heater for this type of installation.
Q Do you want to fit the heater into a surround or fireplace opening without
the optional spacer frame?
A The minimum rebate / depth required is 70mm.

INSTALLER AND OWNER GUIDE
Q Do you want to fit the heater against a flat wall with the base of the heater
on a hearth or similar surface?
A You will need to purchase the optional spacer frame kit. This spacer enables the
heater to be flat wall fixed. Please refer to Section 4 of this guide for details.
Q What opening size do you need in the surround or fireplace opening?
A This heater can be fitted into fireplaces or surrounds where the following
dimensions are available.
Width 395mm - 450 mm
Height 555mm - 590 mm
Depth At least 70mm
Q Do you want to fit the heater below a shelf, mantle or similar?
A You will have to allow the clearances as shown below:
The minimum height from the base of the heater to the underside of any shelf made
from wood or other combustible materials is detailed below.
• For a shelf up to 150mm deep: Minimum height = 700mm.
• For a shelf deeper than 150mm: 700mm + 12.5mm for every 25mm depth over
150mm (See Figure 5).
Figure 5. Combustible shelf clearances
General notes to read before fitting your heater.
If fitting the heater onto a reflective or shiny surface such as a hearth we
recommend that this surface does not extend further than 300mm from the fixing
plane (wall). Reflective or shiny surfaces that project further than 300mm may
reflect an image of the internal light source.
When the fuel effect is on, it will be possible to see reflected light and movement
behind the outlet louvre at the top of the heater.
Fitting the batteries to the Remote Control Handset.
The remote control handset uses 2 x 1.5V AAA type batteries. For longer battery life
use only alkaline batteries. To install the batteries, slide the cover down on the rear of
the handset and remove (See figure 6). The polarity of
the batteries is marked on the inside of the battery
compartment.
If the heater does not respond to the remote control
handset commands, it is likely that the batteries are
faulty or require replacement.
Fitting the mains cable.
The heater is supplied with a mains cable assembly
that should be connected to the heater prior to
installation. The heater connector is located at the rear
bottom left (See figure 7).
