1. General Notes
This Tulp gas appliance is a High Efficiency, Balanced Flue Live Fuel Effect appliance. It provides
radiant and convected heat using the latest burner technology. As well as having a variable heat
output, these fires also utilize a special control system that allows the appliance to use two burners for
high output or a single burner for lower outputs.
One of the burners will be designated as the "Main" Burner, this is the Front, the second burner will be
designated as the "Effect" Burner. The Effect burner can be switched ON or Off whilst the appliance is
alight.
Before Installation, check that the local distribution conditions, nature of the gas and pressure, and
adjustment of the appliance are compatible.
This appliance is intended for use on a gas installation with a governed meter.
This Gas Installation may only be installed by a registered professional competent person (Gas
Safe installer in the UK). The installation must adhere to the requirements of the local and national
Building regulations and national standards. The installation manual must also be followed.
Ensure that the Flue Terminal is not in any way obstructed and is clear of vegetation, i.e. trees, shrubs
etc. and that no objects are leant against the terminal or guard.
Always clean the Window Panel before the fire is ignited. Any finger prints must be removed, as these
will be burnt into the glass and will be un-removable.
Do not operate this appliance if the glass panel has been broken (or cracked), removed or is open.
The appliance is designed to fit numerous installation situations as listed in these installation
instructions. However only flue approved by Tulp for this appliance may be used.
This appliance is a balanced flue product and is room sealed and as such requires no additional
ventilation for operation. However an adequate supply of fresh air to maintain temperatures and a
comfortable environment is recommended.
This appliance is designed as a heating appliance, and as such will get very hot in operation, all
surfaces (except the controls and access door) are considered to be working surfaces and as such
should not be touched. The front windows and surrounds are not considered to be fully secure guards
against accidental contact. It is recommended that an approved fire screen be used if children, the
elderly or persons with limited mobility are to be present in the same area.
Do not place curtains, laundry, furniture etc. within a safe distance of 300mm of this appliance.
Do not attempt to burn rubbish on this appliance.
If this appliance is extinguished, on purpose or other, no attempt to relight should be made within 3
minutes.

2.1 First Time of Operation
Before igniting the appliance, ensure that all packaging, safety stickers and any protective wrapping
have been removed, and that the glass has been cleaned, including all fingerprints from the glass.
Ensure that the room is adequately ventilated the first time that the appliance is ignited, we would
recommend opening windows if possible. Run the appliance at full setting for a few hours so that the
paint gets an opportunity to fully cure. During this period it is possible for some fumes and vapours to
be given off. We would recommend keeping children and pets out of the area at this time.
2.2 Remote control overview
This Tulp Gas appliance has been constructed with an advanced remote control system. This consists of
three main parts: Handset, receiver (fig. 1.1) and gas valve with manual override (fig. 1.2). The gas
control valve and the receiver box are behind the access door. This is also where the product data label
is located.
Fig. 1.1 Receiver
Fig. 1.2 Gas control
With each successful button
press of the handset, the
receiver will emit an audible
signal.
Always leave the dial on the gas
control valve set to “ON”, the
“MAN” position is only for servicing
and emergency use if the handset is
misplaced, or the battery fails.
A toggle switch “0/1” is present on
the gas control valve, this should be
put into the “0” position in the
appliance is not operated for a long
time. Pay attention: when this is on
“0” you cannot operate the fire!!
The heat output can be manually
adjusted by turning the setting knob
on the gas control valve.

2.2.1 Batteries
Remote Handset:3 x 1.5V "AAA" Battery, Quality alkaline recommended
Receiver:4 x 1.5V "AA", Quality alkaline recommended for maximum life.
An alternative AC Mains Adaptor may be used to power the Receiver instead of the 4 AA batteries. Only
an AC Mains Adapter supplied by Tulp may be used. The Mains Adaptor is plugged into the DC 6V
socket on the end of the receiver.
Note - if the AC Mains Adapter is used, remove the 4 AA's from the Receiver, failure to do so could
result in damage and failure of the Receiver. During a period of power outage, the receiver may be
unplugged and batteries returned to the Receiver.
2.2.2 Replacing the batteries
Handset: There is a battery level indicator on the display of the handset. When this gets low remove
the cover on the rear of the handset and replace the battery with another 9V PP3 battery.
Receiver: Three short audible beeps will sound when the appliance is on to indicate that the batteries
in the receiver are getting low.
When the batteries get very low the appliance will be turned off by the remote control. This will fail to
happen if the power supply is interrupted.
To replace the Receiver batteries, slide the cover off of the top of the receiver and use the ribbon to
pull the batteries out. Replace the batteries with new 1.5V AA's, ensuring that the ribbon is located
under the batteries and that the polarity is correct on all 4 batteries.
Never mix new batteries with old, this will result in the new batteries being emptied very quickly.
When the batteries are replaced, it may be necessary to reset the transmitter code, as detailed in the
next section.
2.2.3 Setting the Transmitter code
Press and hold the RESET button with a sharp object (pen or screwdriver) until you hear two audible
beeps. After the second, longer beep, release the RESET button.
Within the next twenty seconds press the down button (Button D fig 1.1) on the remote handset until
you hear an additional long signal confirming the code is set.
2.2.4 Handset

2.3 Cleaning and Maintenance
This appliance should be inspected and serviced once a year by a qualified, competent and registered
person. The inspection and maintenance must at least ensure that the appliance is working correctly
and safely. It is advisable to clean the appliance of any dust and debris before regularly during the
heating season and especially if the appliance has not been used for some time. This can be done with
a soft brush and a vacuum cleaner or a damp cloth and if required a non-abrasive cleaning agent. Do
not use corrosive or abrasive substances to clean the appliance.
Please pay attention: if you keep pushing the arrow down button the fire will go out but the pilot light
will stay on. It is good to keep the pilot light on because then there is less chance of corrosion!

immediately. Before using it again, get in contact with Tulp BV!
