Troubleshooting

Unit does not turn on.

Ensure the power cord is securely plugged into a working electrical outlet. Check if the main power switch is on. If using the remote, ensure batteries are correctly inserted and within range.

No heat is produced.

Verify that the heating function is activated via the control panel or remote. Check the thermostat setting to ensure it is below the current room temperature. Ensure the unit is not set to display flame effects only.

Overheating protection is activated.

The unit may have overheated due to blocked ventilation. Turn off the unit, unplug it, and ensure the rear ventilation space (minimum 5cm) is clear. Allow the unit to cool down before plugging it back in and turning it on.

Remote control is not working.

Check that the remote is within the 6m effective range. Replace the batteries in the remote control. Ensure there are no obstructions between the remote and the fireplace receiver.

Flame effect is not as expected.

Adjust the flame color and brightness settings using the control panel or remote. Ensure the unit is placed on a stable, level surface, as uneven placement can sometimes affect the visual effect.
