d)
If spillage persists, the flue is not functioning correctly and a fault exists.
If, after investigation the fault cannot be traced and rectified, the fire
must be disconnected from the gas supply and expert advice obtained.
e)
If there is an extractor fan fitted any where in the vicinity of the
appliance, or in adjacent rooms the spillage test should be repeated
with the fan running on maximum and all interconnecting doors open.
f)
After ensuring that the fire is safe to use it should be left on high
position to fully warm up. During this time a slight odour may be
noticed, this is due to the “newness” of the fire and will soon disappear.
At this stage any minor adjustments to the coals should be made
using suitable long handled tongs and taking care not to damage the
coals.
Finally, hand the Installation and Maintenance Instructions and the
Users Instructions over to the customer and explain the operation of the
fire.
