The Anko Flame Effect Fireplace Heater, model ND-16D2P, is an electric heater designed for household use, providing both warmth and the aesthetic appeal of a flame effect. This appliance is intended to be a supplementary heating source for small rooms, offering adjustable heat settings and flame illumination to create a cozy atmosphere.
The primary function of this device is to provide heating for indoor spaces. It operates by drawing in air, heating it using internal elements, and then expelling the warm air through an air outlet located at the bottom of the unit. In addition to its heating capability, the heater features a flame effect display window, which simulates the appearance of a traditional fireplace with glowing embers and flickering flames. This flame effect can be adjusted independently of the heating function, allowing users to enjoy the visual ambiance even when heat is not required.
The heater offers two heating power settings: a half-power setting of 900W and a full-power setting of 1800W. These settings are controlled by separate switches on the control panel. An adjustable thermostat knob allows users to set their desired room temperature. Once the desired temperature is reached, the heater will cycle on and off to maintain it. The flame illumination effect can also be adjusted in intensity using a dedicated control knob, providing flexibility in creating the desired visual ambiance.
For safety, the heater is equipped with a thermal safety cut-out that activates if the unit overheats, for example, due to a blocked air outlet. This cut-out prevents the heater from automatically resetting, requiring manual intervention (unplugging and allowing it to cool) before it can be used again. Additionally, a safety tip-over switch is integrated into the design, which automatically cuts off power if the heater is accidentally knocked over, reducing the risk of fire or injury.
Before initial use, the heater requires a simple assembly step: attaching the four sturdy stable feet to the base of the unit using the provided screws and a Phillips head screwdriver. Once assembled, the heater should be placed on a flat, stable, heat-resistant surface, ensuring it is at least 1 meter away from any objects on its front, sides, and rear. It is crucial to avoid placing the heater on long-pile carpets or flokati rugs, as these can obstruct airflow and pose a fire risk; using a heat board is recommended in such cases.
The control panel, conveniently located under a cover, houses all the operational switches and knobs. To activate the heater, users first plug the power cord into a suitable 240V~50Hz wall outlet. It is strongly advised to plug the heater directly into a fixed domestic power outlet and avoid using extension cords, power boards, or double adaptors, as high-wattage appliances can overload these, leading to overheating.
Once plugged in, the ON/OFF switch can be turned on to activate the flame illumination effect. Users can then select their desired heating level by engaging either the "Heating I" switch for half power (900W) or both "Heating I" and "Heating II" switches simultaneously for full power (1800W). The thermostat knob is rotated clockwise or anti-clockwise to set the preferred room temperature. The flame illumination intensity can be further customized by rotating the adjustable fire illumination control dial.
When moving the heater, it is important to switch it off and use the handle provided. The appliance is designed for indoor use only and should not be used in areas where petrol, paint, or other flammable liquids are stored or used. It is also not suitable for use in the immediate surrounds of a bath, shower, or swimming pool, and must never be immersed in any liquids.
Regular maintenance is essential to ensure the safe and efficient operation of the flame effect fireplace heater. Before any cleaning, the heater must be switched off and unplugged from the socket. The exterior surfaces of the heater can be cleaned with a dry, soft cloth. It is important never to use any form of detergents or solvents, or abrasive cleaning products, as these can damage the finish. Spraying with liquids or submerging the unit in water is strictly prohibited.
Users should never attempt to clean the interior of the heater or open its case, as there are no user-serviceable parts inside. The common cause of overheating is the accumulation of dust or fluff within the appliance. To prevent this, these deposits should be removed regularly by unplugging the appliance and vacuum cleaning the air vents and grills. This helps maintain proper airflow and reduces the risk of the thermal safety cut-out being activated.
When storing the heater during the off-season, the power cord should be neatly wound around the base of the heater to prevent any damage. Proper storage also involves keeping the air inlet and outlet free from obstructions, maintaining a minimum distance of 100cm in front and 50cm behind the heater. The unit should not be placed in wardrobes or other enclosed spaces, as this can create fire hazards.
In case of any transport damage, missing parts, or visible signs of damage to the appliance, users should contact customer services. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent, or similarly qualified persons to avoid a hazard. Any malfunctions, drops, or damages that occur after purchase should prompt users to take the appliance to a qualified electrical person for examination, electrical service, or repair. Regular checks of the supply cord are recommended to ensure no damage is evident, preventing potential hazards from heat build-up if the cord set is coiled during operation.
