2
Close all doors and windows in the room or space containing the appliance.
3
Light the appliance and burn at maximum for 5 minutes.
4
Light a smoke match and pass completely along the top front edge of the opening (25mm
down and 25mm inside). A visual check should ascertain that all the smoke generated is
drawn back into the flue.

DECORATIVE TRIMS
1
Place one of the four magnets supplied in each corner of the front frame of the fire. Place
the trim in place. The magnets will ensure it is held in position.
2
When fitting chrome or brass trims, carefully remove the protective plastic covering from
the outside of the brass trim before fitting.

THE ELECTRONIC FAN CONTROLLER.
The fan unit is fitted with an electronic control unit that monitors the behaviour of the fan
during the start up procedure and in the event of high gusts of wind. When the fan is
switched on the controller will set it to run at high speed until the air pressure switch
senses a satisfactory amount of airflow. Once the airflow has been proved the fan will slow
down to its operating speed. If a high gust of wind causes the pressure switch to return to
the 'no air' position, the controller will switch over to the high speed setting to overcome
the wind. The pressure switch will then switch back and the controller will return the fan to
its operating speed. In the event of the gust of wind being more persistent, the controller
will maintain the fan at high speed for approximately 6 seconds. If the pressure switch has
not sensed a return of airflow in this time the controller will shut down the whole system. In
this event the fire will go out and will only relight if the ON switch on the switch panel is
pressed. When first switched on the fan may 'pulse' between high and low operating
speed settings. This is normal providing the fan runs at a steady speed after 5 - 10
minutes of use with the fire alight.

COLD WEATHER PROBLEMS
In freezing conditions the fire maybe very slow to light. After switching the fan on there
may be a delay of between five and ten minutes before the fire will light. In these
conditions the fan will turn quite sluggishly until the fan motor has warmed and increased
speed sufficiently to generate enough airflow to activate the pressure switch. Leaving the
pilot alight may allow a small amount of heat to pass to the fan, which will help to shorten
the warm up period.
If the fire still refuses to light, contact your supply.

BRIEFING THE USER.
1
Demonstrate the full operation of the appliance to the user, referring them specifically to
the lay of the coals / pebbles and removal of soot, as described in the user instructions.
2
Explain about the odour given off by the coals / pebbles, as described in Section 12.
3
Inform the user that all cleaning procedures should be carried out ONLY when the
appliance is cold.
4
Leave these instructions, and the user's instructions, with the user.
5
Advise the importance of having the appliance serviced and the fan unit checked for
clearance of combustion products on an annual basis.

TIMBERED FRAMED BUILDINGS
If any doubt arises regarding the installation into a timber framed building, guidance can be
found in Document IGE/UP/7 (available from the institute of Gas Engineers). If any further
information is required the manufacturer should be contacted.
