Operating Instructions
All of the fireplace control functions can be accessed
in two (2) ways:
• Using a multifunction remote control unit.
• Using touchpad control panel, located in the lower
right-hand corner of the fireplace behind the door
front or fixed front (depending on the model).
The infrared remote control relies on a line of sight
and must be pointed at the touchpad control panel of
the fireplace to work. The remote control unit has all
the controls required to operate any electronic features
on the unit. If you prefer to use the touchpad control
on the fireplace unit itself, open the fixed front or open
the doors (depending on the model) to access the
touchpad buttons. The layout of the buttons on touch-
pads and remote control unit can be seen in Figures
10, 11 & 12, respectively.

The fireplace features conveniently separate controls
for flame effect and for heater control. This allows you
to operate the unit in three (3) different modes:
• As a full-featured fireplace - both flame effect and
heater are on. This mode allows you to enjoy the
look of the fire along with the heat output of a
heater.

does not apply to HEF22.)
• As a visual effect - only flame effect is on, the
heater is off. We recommend this mode for warm
weather application, when you want the ambiance
of a fire, without any heat output.
• As a heater - only heater is on, while the flame
effect is off. This mode allows you to use your fire-
place as an electric heater, without any flame effect.
Refer to Figures 10, 11 & 12 for locations of the but-
tons on both, the touchpad and remote control unit,
described in the following operating instructions. Note
that in both cases, button numbers as shown in the fig-
ures are the same.
NOTE: When the flame or heater is activated by but-
tons 1 or 4 on either the remote control or touchpad
control panel, the respective LED lights up to indicate
and allow settings to be changed. After 20 seconds of
inactivity, a feature of the fireplace is for the LED visu-
als on the touchpad control panel to go out. You must
activate the fireplace electronics by depressing any
buttons on the remote control or the touchpad control
panel for the LED visuals to reappear before any set-
tings can be made or changed.

Flame Speed Control
Your fireplace features a flame speed that can be con-
trolled either by remote control or at the touchpad con-
trol panel. By depressing button 1 once, the flame
effect will be activated and turn on. By repeatedly
depressing buttons 2 or 3, you can decrease or
increase the flame effect speed to achieve the desired
flame effect. Refer to the visual indicator A to monitor
the relative speed of the flame effect between the
slowest (lowest light bar) and fastest (highest light
bar). For your added convenience, the flame effect
speed setting is stored in memory when the flame
effect is turned off.
