Ive got a Cheriton optiflame fire and the bulb needs replacing
Ive lost the instructions but can vaguely remeber it said to take all the coals out and unscrew the coal bed and the bulb would be under the coal bed
Ive done this and taken the screws out but I cant see how you get the cover off to get at the bulb-Ive tried brute force but its not working lol
any advice much appreciated :0)Has anyone got any advice about how to change the bulb in an electric fire?Try the technical manuals available online. You can also print off a copy of the user manual if needed -

If you can't find your exact model - look for similar (or Email them) They usually stick to the same method of construction.
Very often products are made to clip in - using fewer screws saves manufacturing costs, so once you've removed all visible screws, use a flat blated screwdriver in any likely slots to pry one side while pulling on the part you need removing. Do not try to remove it in one go like a paint tin lid - but use a constant pull with prying at multiple points along 2 adjacent sides. This can be frustrating as some clips re-attatch while your working on another area - but it will come out eventually.Has anyone got any advice about how to change the bulb in an electric fire?You can download an instruction manual from here.
