Lighting the pilot.

This fire is controlled by a  4-position gas tap mounted
on the front leg of the appliance.  In addition to the

“Off” 

position there is a pilot light and 2 heat control

settings (See figure 2).

Depress the control knob and turn anticlockwise

towards the “

Pilot/Ign

” position. A spark should be

generated at the pilot while turning.  The spark should
ignite the pilot.  The pilot flame can be seen through the
lower left hand opening in the front of the fuel effect
bed.

Keep the button depressed at the “

Pilot/Ign

” position

for a further ten seconds.  This will prevent the flame-
sensing device from shutting off the gas while its probe
warms up.

If the pilot does not ignite instantly, repeat procedure.

If after 10 seconds pilot ignition has not occurred, turn the control knob back to
the “Off” position, wait for 3 minutes and then repeat the ignition procedure.

Lighting the main burner.

Once the pilot light is established, the main burner can be lit by depressing and

turning the control knob anticlockwise to the “

High

” position.

Selecting the heat setting.

In order to change from one setting to another depress the control knob slightly and

turn the knob to the required position. Any setting from “

Low

” to “

High

” may be

selected.

Note:

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 operate the appliance at its
“High” setting. This will also burn off any carbon deposits that may have formed
during previous operations. If operating the appliance for long periods it is beneficial to
change between settings. This will help to remove any carbon deposits that may form
during operation.

Turning the fire back to pilot setting.

Depress the control knob and turn clockwise until the pilot setting is reached.
