Completing the Installation of the Appliance
Remove the protective covering (if applicable) from the face of the decorative trim. To fit the trim to the appliance the
four adjustable mounting features at the rear of the trim need to be set. To allow for a tolerance with the installation the
trim can be adjusted to sit fore and aft as is required to give a neat fit of the trim. The trim should ideally sit approximately
1mm in front of the back panel. Adjust the mounting features until the best fit is achieved.
This appliance should only be installed with the trim and fret assembly supplied. Installation of any other non-specified
trim/fret may cause the appliance to operate incorrectly and may void the warranty on the appliance.
THE INSTALLER MUST INFORM THE CUSTOMER OF THE FOLLOWING TO COMPLETE THE INSTALLATION
Demonstrate the lighting of the appliance and the controls to control the heat settings. Demonstrate how to extinguish
the fire.
Demonstrate the removal of the trim and fret and how to reinstall correctly.
Discuss the removal and reinstallation of the glass and the ceramics. Explain how they should be cleaned and make the
customer aware of the health and safety warning detailed later in these instructions.
Explain to the customer that the ceramics are fragile and must be treated with great care, explain that the ceramics are
not covered by the warranty because of their fragility. Also explain that small hairline cracks will appear in the surface of
the ceramics due to heat expansion and contraction—this is perfectly normal.
During the first several hours of use an odour will be experienced—this is normal and is the starch used in the
manufacturing of the ceramic fuel bed. This odour is non toxic and will eventually disappear with use.
Advise that no rubbish should be thrown onto the appliance and that the appliance should be cleaned regularly.
A vacuum cleaner can be used but it is important that the appliance is turned off and allowed to cool before undertaking
this procedure. See the separate section regarding cleaning the ceramics.
Advise the customer that the appliance should be serviced annually by a
GAS SAFE
engineer to ensure the safety and
integrity of the appliance.
Advise the customer that the appliance has a naked flame and therefore it is essential that a suitable fireguard be used for
the protection of the elderly, infirm and young children. This fireguard should conform to BS8423 : 2002 (Fireguards or use
with Gas Heating Appliances).
These instructions must be handed over to the customer once installation is complete.
