Operating Instructions

The controls for the electric fireplace heater are located on the front panel, typically behind the decorative door.

2. Flame Effect Adjustment: Use the 'Flame Dimmer Control' knob to adjust the brightness of the realistic 3D flame effect. Turn clockwise to increase brightness, counter-clockwise to decrease.
