Product Information

Full details

The Dimplex Cheriton Deluxe is designed for homeowners seeking the aesthetic appeal of a traditional fireplace without the maintenance of solid fuel, offering a sophisticated black nickel finish and realistic Optiflame technology. It serves as an excellent focal point for living rooms or bedrooms, providing flexible 2kW heating and year-round ambient flame effects. While the unit is highly versatile and easy to install, users should be aware that the fan heater can produce a noticeable hum during operation, which may be a consideration for those prioritizing near-silent environments.

Can I operate the flame effect without the heat?

How long is the power cable?

The unit comes with a standard length power cable designed for reaching nearby wall sockets; please avoid using extension leads to prevent electrical hazards.

What is the total width of the fire?

Troubleshooting

The flame effect is working, but the heater is not producing air.

Check that the thermostat is set higher than the current room temperature and ensure the heater switch on the control panel is set to the 'on' position.

The remote control is unresponsive.

Replace the batteries in the remote control and ensure there are no obstructions between the remote and the infrared receiver on the front of the unit.

The unit switches off suddenly.

The safety cut-out system may have activated due to overheating or a blocked air vent. Ensure the vents are free from dust and debris, and allow the unit to cool for 15 minutes before restarting.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation is straightforward due to the freestanding design. Simply place the unit in your desired location, ensure it is on a level surface, and plug it into a standard domestic power outlet. No recessed wall cavity or chimney is necessary.

Compatibility: This fire fits flush against flat walls or can be integrated into standard fireplace surrounds. Ensure there is a minimum of 1 meter of clearance from flammable materials like curtains or furniture.

Care: Always switch the unit off at the mains and allow it to cool before cleaning. Use a soft, lint-free cloth to dust the exterior metal frame. Avoid using abrasive cleaning agents on the black nickel finish. The coal bed may be gently cleaned with a dry brush if dust accumulates over time.
