To turn on the Dimplex Optiflame Braemar BMR20, ensure it is plugged into a power outlet, then use the power switch located on the unit or the remote control to activate the flame effect and heater.
If the flame effect is not working, check if the unit is plugged in and the power is on. Inspect the LED bulbs for any signs of damage and replace if necessary. Consult the manual for further troubleshooting steps.
Adjust the heat settings using the control panel or remote control. The BMR20 typically offers multiple heat settings, allowing you to select your preferred level of warmth.
Noise from the electric fire could be due to loose components or debris in the fan. Turn off the unit, unplug it, and inspect for any visible issues. If the noise persists, contact customer support.
Clean the exterior of the unit regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Ensure the unit is unplugged before cleaning. The interior should be inspected and cleaned every few months to ensure optimal operation.
It is generally safe to leave the electric fire on overnight, but it's recommended to use the thermostat or timer features to conserve energy and ensure safety.
Ensure that the heat settings are set to the desired level. Check if the air intake or outlets are blocked. If the issue persists, consult the user manual or contact customer support.
To replace the LED bulbs, ensure the unit is turned off and unplugged. Access the bulb compartment as instructed in the user manual, carefully remove the old bulbs, and replace them with compatible LED bulbs.
A slight burning smell can be normal during the first few uses as the unit burns off any dust or residue from manufacturing. If the smell persists, ensure the unit is clean and contact support if necessary.
Regular maintenance includes cleaning the exterior, checking for any obstructions in the vents, and replacing LED bulbs as needed. It's also important to periodically check the power cord and plug for any damage.
