Checking for clearance of combustion products
Close all doors and windows in room
Light the fire and allow to run for approximately 5 minutes on high position
After approximately 5 minutes hold a smoke match inside the diverter as shown below
,(it is recommended that a suitable smoke match holder is used when checking for
clearance of combustion )most of the smoke must be drawn into the flue
If in doubt repeat the test after the fire has been burning for 10 minutes
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 advise obtained
If there is an extractor fan fitted any where in the vicinity of the appliance ,the spillage
test should be repeated with the fan running on maximum and all interconnecting doors
open
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 odor may be noticed this is due to the newness of the fire and will
soon disappear
Fit trim and using 4 magnets on vertical flanges on fire box and fit fret centrally in front of
fire
Finally hand the installation and maintenance instructions to the user and explain the
operation of the fire in detail
