Switch the fire and fan off and allow to cool before attempting to clean, service, etc.

This appliance retains heat for some time after it has been switched off

Do always use a fireguard complying with BS 8423 for the protection of young

children, the elderly or infirm.

Do wait three minutes before attempting to relight if the fire is switched off or the

flames are extinguished for any reason.(Your fire is fitted with a safety device that will

automatically shut off the gas supply to the fire, if for any reason , the flame goes out)

Do get advice about the suitability of any wall covering near your fire. Soft wall

coverings (e.g. embossed vinyl, etc.) which have a raised pattern are easily affected by

heat. They may, therefore, scorch or become discoloured when close to a heating

appliance. Please bear this in mind whenever you are considering redecorating.

provide a minimum side clearance as below: The minimum allowable distance from

the outside of the appliance fascia to a corner wall having combustible material or any

other combustible surface which projects beyond the front of the appliance is 100mm.

For access purposes a 50mm clearance is recommended from non-combustible surfaces.

Please bear this in mind if ever you are altering the room.

Don’t hang clothing, towels or any other fabrics over the fire.

Don’t put more ceramic fuel effect pieces on the fire than the number given in this

controls are behind this cover

Check that the red indicator light is on

(this is located at the lower left hand side

of the burner).

Press and hold in the "ON" switch.

Within two seconds, the fan motor should

start and the indicator light should go out

Release the "ON" switch. The fan should

continue to run.

Depress the control knob and turn

partially to the "PILOT/IGN" position

Page 6

OWNER GUIDE

PLEASE NOTE

When operating your fire for the first time, some vapours may be given off which may

cause a slight odour and could possibly set off any smoke alarms in the immediate

vicinity. These vapours are quite normal with new appliances. They are totally harmless

and will disappear after a few hours use.

Figure 1.

until you feel some resistance.

Keep the knob depressed at this position for a few seconds to allow gas to flow to the

pilot.

While keeping the knob depressed, turn to the "PILOT/IGN" position. While turning, a

spark should light the pilot. The pilot flame can be seen through the ceramic fuel effect

at the front left side.

Keep the knob depressed at the "PILOT/IGN" position for a further ten seconds then

release it. The pilot flame should stay alight.

Slightly depress the knob and turn it to "LOW". Release the knob. Within a few seconds

the main burner should light at its low setting.

Slightly depress the knob and gradually turn it

towards "HIGH" until the burner is at your

desired setting. The burner flames will gradually

increase until the knob is at the "HIGH"

position.

If the spark ignition fails, the fire can be lit

manually by inserting a lighted taper into the

opening under the left hand coal pieces of the

front coal (as shown in figure 2) and depressing

the control knob at the "PILOT/IGN" position.

Note: If the fire goes out while setting the

control, repeat the full lighting procedure. If the

fire repeatedly goes out, have the fire serviced.

How to turn your fire off.

! To turn off the main burner but leave the pilot alight

slightly depress the control

knob and turn to "PILOT/IGN". Leave the fan switched on.

! To turn the fire fully off

slightly depress the control knob and turn to "OFF". Press

the "OFF" switch to turn the fan off. The indicator light will come on to show that the

electrical supply to the fire is live. If the fire is not likely to be used again for a long

time we suggest that the mains isolating switch for the fire is switched off.

! Wait at least three minutes after turning the fire off before relighting.

! While cooling, the coals may make some crackling noises. This is quite normal.

The flame sensing & flue blockage safety system.

! For your safety, this appliance is fitted with a flue blockage safety device which

will shut down the appliance in the event of abnormal flue conditions.

This device will also shut down the appliance if the pilot flame goes out due to lack

of oxygen or for any other reason.

Page 7

OWNER GUIDE

Figure 2. Lighting with a taper

The system includes a probe that senses the heat from the pilot flame. If this probe

is cool, the system will prevent any gas flow unless the control knob is kept depressed

at the "PILOT/IGN" position.

! The system also includes an atmospheric pressure detector. This will shut off the

gas supply if the fan is not working.

If there is a blockage preventing the flow of exhaust fumes out of the flue, the fan

will switch to a high boost speed to attempt to clear the blockage. If the boost speed

does not clear the flue, the pressure detector will shut off the gas supply.

! If the flames go out, or if for any reason the fire is turned off,

always wait at least 3

minutes before attempting to relight.

! If this device starts to shut off the gas frequently please get expert advice

! This device is NOT a substitute for an independently mounted Carbon

Monoxide detector.

CLEANING YOUR FIRE

Cleaning your fire.

To maintain the high performance and quality finish of your fire, please follow these

guidelines:

Before attempting to clean the fire, please remember to turn off the gas at the fire and

the electricity at the isolating switch.

Wait for the appliance to cool. The fire will retain heat for some time before cleaning

can begin.

Metal parts.

Clean the metal parts with a slightly damp cloth and then dry.

Do not use abrasive cleaners, as these will scratch the fire surface.

Ceramic fuel effect and burner compartment rear wall.

This product uses fuel effect pieces, gaskets and a burner compartment rear wall

containing Refractory Ceramic Fibres (RCF), which are man-made vitreous

silicate fibres. Excessive exposure to this material may cause temporary irritation

to eyes, skin and respiratory tract. Consequently, it makes sense to take care when

handling these articles to ensure that the release of dust is kept to a minimum.

Light coatings of soot will usually be burnt off during the normal operation of the

fire. Should any soot accumulation become excessive, the fuel effect pieces and

walls should be removed from the fire for cleaning. Cleaning should be carried out

in a well ventilated area or in the open air by gently brushing with the pieces held

away from your face so that you avoid inhaling the dust. We do not recommend the

use of a normal domestic vacuum cleaner which may blow dust back into the air.

We suggest that you remove the coals in the reverse order to that shown in the fuel

OWNER GUIDE

installer and owner guide.

Ceramic burner.

Remove any soot or other foreign matter from the solid areas of the burner with a dry

soft brush.

Be careful not to brush any particles into the open slots.

Remove any particles from the slots with a vacuum cleaner fitted with a soft brush

attachment. Do not poke wire, etc. into the slots in the burner.

Flue terminal.

Keep the slots in the flue terminal on the outside wall clear of any obstructions (leaves,

snow etc.)

Ventilation.

If any purpose made ventilation was provided for this appliance, make sure that it is

always free from any obstruction.

CERAMIC FUEL EFFECT REFITTING

The installer and owner guide for the ceramic fuel effect is separate from this guide. The

installer may have attached it to this guide or placed it inside. It is important that the

installer and owner guide for the ceramic fuel effect is followed correctly. If replacing

the ceramic fuel effect, where a new guide is supplied, follow the installer and owner

guide supplied with the replacement fuel effect.

Keep the replacement installer and owner guide with this owner guide for future

reference.

MAINTENANCE

Regular maintenance.

In order to achieve and maintain high levels of personal safety and performance

efficiency, it is essential that the opening at the back of the fire and the flue are kept

clear of any form of obstruction. It is possible that deposits of mortar or soot could fall

and accumulate causing the flue to be blocked or restricted and so preventing proper

clearance of dangerous exhaust fumes.

In the United Kingdom it is the law that a landlord must have any gas appliance, flue

and pipework which is situated in a tenant's premises checked for safety at least every

twelve months by a competent person (In the U.K, a CORGI registered installer).
