OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance is available with two operating methods, namely manual control and slide control. The following
instructions detail both methods of operation however the basic operation of the appliance involves the ignition of a
pilot burner (See page 11 for spillage monitoring details—ODS), then the control of the main burner with LOW and HIGH
settings.
This appliance has a naked flame and as with all heating appliances a fireguard should be used for the
protection of children, the elderly and infirm. The fireguard should conform to BS8423 : 2002 (Fireguards or
use with Gas Heating Appliances).
SLIDE CONTROL OPERATION
1.
Push the control lever down fully to the IGN symbol . The spark generator should cause a repetitive spark at
the pilot and the pilot should ignite. If the pilot does not light after 10 seconds then lift the control lever upwards
to the OFF symbol and wait for 3 minutes.
2.
Once the pilot is lit keep the control lever pushed down fully for up to 15 seconds.
3.
Now slowly lift the control lever to the symbol, the pilot should remain lit and the burner will be in the LOW
setting. If it goes out, lift the lever upwards to the OFF symbol and wait for 3 minutes. Then return to step 1.
4.
To set the appliance to the HIGH setting, lift the control lever upwards to the flame symbol.
5
It is also possible to adjust the control knob between the and the flame symbols to achieve a mid setting.
6
To turn the fire off, lift the lever to the symbol to turn off.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Should the spark generator fail to provide a spark at the electrode it may be that a small amount of
soot has fallen from the fuel bed onto the pilot assembly, causing a short circuit. If this is the case, ensuring the
appliance is off and cold, this area can be cleaned with the thin nozzle from a vacuum cleaner. Alternatively check the
battery is in good condition—the battery access cover is at the base of the appliance just left of centre.
It is also possible to light the pilot burner with a long taper whilst the control lever is being held at the IGN symbol .
