FLUE SSPILLAGE M

MONITORING SSYSTEM

This fire is fitted with a flue spillage safety device (ODS). If the fire shuts down during use for no apparent reason
then several reasons may be suspected. If a door or window has been opened creating a draught, then pilot dis-
turbance could be the problem, and removal of the draught should resolve this. The fire can then be re-lit in
accordance with the previous section. A sealing grommet may have been ommited when the fire was installed,
and the original installer should be called to check this, the gas pressure and pipework.

If pilot disturbance is not the cause, then the ODS safety system may be in operation. Switch the appliance OFF,
call in your installer to check the flue and ventilation and carry out any remedial work required. DO NOT allow
the appliance to be used until the flue system is passed as safe.

CLEANING

Before carrying out any of the following operations, ensure that the fire is OFF and completely cold. Debris that
may form on the firebed should be periodically removed by a competent person. Large deposits could indicate
deterioration of the flue. This should be repaired by a competent person, and the fire serviced before  further use.

FIREFRAME - This is retained by one of two methods, either by magnetic backing pieces, or a three piece clip-on
assembly. The magnetic frame may be removed for cleaning if required, however the clip-on style must not be
removed. A wipe with a dry cloth is normally sufficient, but on stains it is permissible to use a damp cloth with a
mild household cleaner, followed by a wipe with a dry cloth. DO NOT use abrasive cleaners as these may
damage the finish. To re-assemble ensure the magnets are place on the steel backing pieces, and re-fit to the
firebox.

FIREFRONT - Any dust accumulating in the firefront may be removed using a vacuum cleaner or dry cloth. Heavy
stains may be removed by using a damp cloth and mild household detergent. Brass parts of the firefront may be
cleaned using a suitable brass cleaner. Replace the front centrally against the fire after cleaning.

PAINTED AREAS - These can be cleaned using a dry cloth.

COALS AND CERAMICS - See the relevant section in the Installation Guide of these instructions. Do not create
dust from the coals. Clean gently in the open air. Replace components with original spares only as necessary.
