Dimplex Dimplex DFI2309 User Manual

3

The manual controls for the unit are located in the top, right 

corner, on the front of the firebox (Figure 1).  A switch is in 

the On position when the side with the “ 

I ”,  or “ II ” markings 

on it is pushed in.

This three (3) position switch offers the following functions:
(I) Manual mode

When in the “ 

I ” position, the fireplace bypasses the built-

in remote control, the flame effect is turned on and the 

electrical supply to the heater is controlled manually using 

the Low Heat and High Heat Switches (Figure 1-C and D).

The “ 

II ” position is for operating the unit with the provided 

remote control. When in “ 

II ” position the unit is operated 

with the ON and OFF buttons of the remote control.

 NOTE: Remote control operates main power supply. Heat 

must still be controlled by switches on fireplace.

All power to all functions are switched off.

Should the fireplace overheat, an automatic cut out will turn 

the heater off and it will not come back on without being 

reset.  It can be reset by switching the Main Power Switch 

(Figure 1-A or B) to the Off  (“ 

O ”) position, and waiting five 

(5) minutes before switching the unit back on.

 CAUTION: If you need to continuously reset the heater, 

unplug the unit and call Dimplex North America Limited at 

1-888-346-7539 for technical support.
