This document is an owner's manual for the Dimplex electric fireplace models DFI2309 and DFI2310. It provides important safety information, installation instructions, operational guidelines, and maintenance procedures to ensure safe and effective use of the fireplace.
The Dimplex electric fireplace is designed to provide the ambiance of a traditional fireplace with the convenience and safety of an electric appliance. It features a heater that can operate at low or high heat settings, and it includes a flame effect to simulate burning logs and embers. The unit is intended for indoor use and can be installed into an existing fireplace opening or as a standalone unit with appropriate clearances.
The fireplace offers both manual and remote control operation.
The unit is equipped with a 3-position switch (A) for primary control:
Additionally, there are separate switches for heat control:
The fireplace comes with an integrated On/Off remote control. To use the remote, the 3-position switch (A) must be set to the "II" position.
If the remote control ceases to operate the fireplace, it can be re-initialized:
The heater is equipped with an automatic safety device to prevent overheating. If the heater overheats, it will automatically cut out and will not come back on without being reset. To reset, switch the 3-position switch (A) to the "O" (Off) position and wait five minutes before switching the unit back on. If continuous resetting is required, the unit should be unplugged, and a local dealer should be contacted.
The electric insert must be installed in an opening with minimum dimensions of 24 inches (61 cm) wide, 21.5 inches (54.6 cm) high, and 12 inches (30.5 cm) deep. The fireplace does not require any additional venting. When installing into an existing fireplace:
Regular maintenance is essential for the safe and efficient operation of the fireplace. Always disconnect power before performing any maintenance or cleaning to reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or damage.
The fireplace should not be operated with an accumulation of dust or dirt, as this can lead to heat buildup and damage. The heater should be inspected regularly, at least yearly.
Use warm water only to clean painted surfaces. Do not use abrasive cleaners.
The glass is cleaned at the factory. During shipment or installation, dust particles may accumulate and can be removed by buffing lightly with a clean, dry cloth. For fingerprints or other marks, use a damp cloth with a good quality household glass cleaner. Dry completely with a lint-free cloth or paper towel. Do not use abrasive cleaners or spray directly onto the glass surface.
Light bulbs need replacement when a dark section of the flame becomes noticeable. There are two bulbs under the log set that generate the flames and embers.
Except for light bulb replacement and cleaning, all other servicing should be performed by an authorized service representative. Do not attempt to wire new outlets or circuits yourself; always use a licensed electrician.
