OPERATION Figure 1 F A C B E Remote Control The fireplace is supplied with a radio frequency remote control. This remote control has a range of approximately 50 feet (15.25 m), it does not have to be pointed at the fireplace and can pass through most obstacles (including walls). It is supplied with one of hundreds of independent frequencies to prevent interference with other units.
Voltage Selector Switch The BFSL33 has 2 voltage options at the time of installation, 110/120v and 220/240v. The voltage selector switch is to be set at the time of installation according to the voltage coming from the power supply. The switch is located on the top right hand side of the fireplace next to the overheat indicator light (Figure 1F). The number 115 (for 110/120v) or 230 (for 220/240v) will be visible on the switch.
