Traditional Style with Modern Convenience

The Flavel Proflame Autograph recreates the appearance of a traditional open fire. However, it does not need stored fuel, a gas supply or a working chimney.

The shaped black nickel and black fascia provides a familiar fireplace appearance. Meanwhile, the smart controls make the fire easy to use throughout the year.

Deep Woodland Log Fuel Bed

The deep fuel bed contains detailed woodland-effect logs designed to recreate the look of natural wood. Glowing ash-effect embers sit beneath the logs and add warmth and depth to the display.

As a result, you can enjoy the appearance of a log fire without cleaning ash, storing fuel or arranging chimney maintenance.

Dual-Colour Flame Effect

The fire offers natural-coloured flames as well as electric-blue highlights. You can display the natural effect on its own or combine it with blue flames for a more modern appearance.

Furthermore, the adjustable flame-speed setting changes the movement of the flames. Choose a quicker setting for a lively display or select a slower speed for a calm and relaxing effect.

Flame-Only Setting

You can use the flame and fuel-bed display without switching on the heater. Therefore, the Autograph can remain an attractive fireplace feature during warmer weather.

The energy-saving LED lighting also helps keep the running cost of the visual display low.

Heat Output and Thermostatic Control

The Flavel Proflame Autograph provides a heat output from 0.8kW to 1.6kW. Therefore, it can supply useful supplementary warmth in a suitable room.

The thermostatic controls help maintain your chosen room temperature. As a result, the fire can reduce unnecessary heating while keeping the room comfortable.

However, the fire should not replace a correctly sized main heating system where full-room or whole-home heating is required.

Remote, App and Voice Control

The supplied multifunction handset allows you to adjust the fire from your chair. Alternatively, you can use the manual controls on the appliance.

For added convenience, download the compatible Flavel Smart App to a suitable iOS or Android device. You can then manage key functions from your smartphone or tablet.

The fire also supports Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant. Once you complete the required app and smart-home setup, you can operate compatible functions with voice commands.

Installation Options

The Proflame Autograph is designed for installation in a suitable fireplace opening or surround. Its 70mm inset rebate helps reduce the depth that must sit behind the fireplace fascia.

However, the complete fire box measures approximately 192mm deep. Therefore, check the whole product as well as the inset rebate before installation.

An optional spacer frame may provide another fitting option where the available recess is limited. Nevertheless, confirm the required spacer, opening and fixing method before ordering.

Installation Guidance

• Read the complete manufacturer’s instructions before installation
• Check the fascia, fire-box and inset dimensions separately
• Make sure the fireplace opening is suitable for the appliance
• Install the fire on a firm, level and secure surface
• Keep the heater inlet and outlet clear
• Allow the ventilation space stated in the instructions
• Provide safe access to the plug or isolation point
• Do not install the fire directly below a socket
• Do not use an extension lead
• Do not connect the fire through an external timer or smart plug
• Arrange fixed electrical work through a qualified electrician
• Follow all instructions supplied with the appliance

Electrical and Operating Safety

Keep curtains, furniture and other items away from the heater outlet. In addition, never cover the fire or block its ventilation openings.

Always switch off and isolate the appliance before cleaning or inspection. Then allow the fire to cool fully.

If the cable, plug or another component becomes damaged, stop using the appliance and contact a suitably qualified technician.

Cleaning and Maintenance

First, switch off the fire and disconnect it from the electrical supply. Next, wait until it has cooled completely.

Clean the fascia and outer surfaces with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. However, avoid abrasive cleaners, scouring pads and strong chemicals because they may damage the plated finish.

Also keep the air inlet and heater outlet free from dust. Regular light cleaning helps maintain the fire’s appearance and supports safe operation.

Three-Year Manufacturer’s Warranty

The Flavel Proflame Autograph comes with a three-year manufacturer’s warranty, subject to Flavel’s warranty terms and conditions.

Register the appliance if required and keep your proof of purchase. Correct installation, normal domestic use and suitable maintenance may also affect warranty cover.
