Do have the fire installed in accordance with the installation instructions

provide a minimum clearance of 750mm from the top surface of the hearth to any

shelf made of wood or other combustible material where the shelf is not more than

150mm deep. For a shelf deeper than 150mm, add 12.5mm to the clearance for every

25mm of additional shelf depth.(See graph1)

Graph 1. Combustible shelf clearances

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 detailed in figure 1. 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 loose coals on the fire than the number given in this guide or use any

coals other than those authorised for this fire. Incorrect combustion could result.

Don’t put paper or other materials onto your fire.

Don’t use the fire with damaged base ceramics.

Don’t place any combustible material (rugs, carpet, plastic tiles, etc.) on the hearth

Don’t

attempt to clean or service the fire until it has been switched off and allowed to

OPERATING YOUR FIRE

The Oxysafe 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 is NOT a

substitute for an independently mounted Carbon Monoxide detector.

The device will also automatically shut off the gas supply to the fire if the pilot flame

goes out due to lack of oxygen or for any other reason.

If this device starts to repeatedly shut off the gas, get expert advice.

This device incorporates a probe which senses that the heat from the pilot flame is

correct. If this probe is cool, the device will prevent any gas flow unless the control

knob is held at the ignition position.

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

hot, always wait at least three minutes before attempting to relight.

To light the fire

The slide control is shown in figure 2.

1. Slide the control button to the bottom (ignition) position marked .

In this position, the electronic ignition system should

cause a series of sparks which should light the pilot.

Within four seconds of the pilot igniting, the main burner

should light at its minimum setting.

If no sparks are produced to light the pilot, the battery

may need replacing. Details of battery replacement are

given further on in this manual.

Until you can obtain a replacement battery the fire can be

lit with a taper as described later in the instructions.

2. Keep the button at the ignition position for a further

ten seconds. This will prevent the flame-sensing device

from shutting off the gas while its probe warms up as

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 2.

explained above.

If low heat is required, release the button. The button will automatically spring up to

the low heat position shown in figure 2 (See note i).

For a higher heat level slide the button upwards. The burner flames and heat output

will gradually increase until the button reaches the high heat position shown in figure 2.

When the button reaches the high heat position you will feel a check to its movement.

Do not slide the button above the high heat position unless you want to turn the fire off

(See note i).

Note i) If the flames go out while setting the control, repeat the full lighting

procedure. If the flames repeatedly go out have the fire serviced.

ii)

Please note. When first turned on the flames will appear predominantly blue. The

coals will take time to warm up. Although some glow will be seen after approximately

ten minutes, the full visual effect will only be apparent after a somewhat longer time.

iii)

The appliance will operate to its maximum potential if the flue is primed during

the first 20 - 30 minutes of operation. To do this, simply slide the control button to its

highest setting. This will also burn off any carbon deposits that may have formed during

previous operations.

iv)

If operating the appliance for long periods it is beneficial occasionally to change

the settings. This will also help to remove any carbon deposits that may form during

operation.

To turn the fire off

Slide the button up past the high heat position to the "O" position.

Both the main burner and the pilot should go

out.

While cooling, the coals may make some

crackling noises. This is quite normal.

Lighting with a taper

See figure 3.

In the unlikely event of failure of the ignition

spark, the pilot can be lit by a taper or long spill.

Insert the taper or spill through the lower left

hand opening in the front of the fuel effect bed

and operate the slide control as described

previously.

CLEANING

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

these guidelines:

Before attempting to clean the fire, please remember to turn off the fire and wait for

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

If any pieces of debris are found in the firebox, have the chimney inspected before

further use.

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 Rear Wall

! This product uses fuel effect pieces and burner compartment rear wall

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

silicate fibres. Excessive exposure to this material may cause irritation to eyes, skin

and respiratory tract. Consequently, it is important 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 suggest that you remove the coals in the reverse order to that shown in the fuel

bed refitting instructions.

Burner

! The burner surface can be carefully cleaned to remove any loose particles after

taking off the coals. Make sure that no particles are pushed into the burner holes.

OWNER GUIDE

FUEL BED REFITTING

1. Place the rear base coal in the firebox.

It should rest on the ledges at the rear

sides of the burner unit. When located

gently move the rear base coal so that it is

as far forward as possible. The amount of

movement will be negligible (See figure

4).

2. Place the front base coal in the firebox

with its bottom front locating over the

front rim of the firebox. Pull the coal

forward so that it locates immediately

behind the front rim of the

firebox. (See figure 5).The front

base coal will touch the rear base

coal as it is located.

There are two types of loose

coals. These are identified with

the letter “A” or “B” on the

underside of the coal.

There are three “A” coals and

two “B” coals.

3. Place a type “A” coal between

the front and rear base coals with

the letter “A” upright and so that

the coal is against the left side of

the firebox. See figure 6.
