Dimplex Electric Fireplace switch question

I have the model BF8000ST MOD:C in my 2011 3150 and need feedback from other owners on the on/off switches. My power and heat switches are reverse from what the Owners Manual Shows! Facing the front of my fireplace, the Main on/off Switch is on the left side next to the two light control knobs. The Heat on/off Switch is on the right side next to the thermostat knob. The Owners Manual pages 10-11 Figure 6 shows the Heat switch A on the left and the Main switch E on the right!
Need help with how is yours wired? It makes sense to me the way mine is set up, and think the Manual is wrong!

UPDATE 11/30/10 See my post below; my Fireplace is correct and Manual is wrong!

Chuck,
I'm sure my model is different from yours since I have an '02. But for what it is worth my power is on the right and the heat control on the left. Sorry to say I don't know what the manual says!

Good luck and sorry I couldn't be of more help. Someone will be along shortly to help you.
Dennis

UPDATE: I called Dimplex today and found out my fireplace is wired correctly and the Owners Manual is incorrect! They were not aware of the mistake so I'm glad I called and hopefully other MOC members who read this will be informed. Thanks drknapp since seeing your response gave me a "warmer feeling". We are in the cold Northwest in our Montana and the Fireplace is on constantly. It is a well appreciated option.
