GENERAL INSRUCTIONS
This fire is intended for decorative purposes. Any purpose-provided
ventilation should be checked regularly to ensure that it is free from
obstruction. The fire should be serviced regularly by a qualified person.
The chimney should be swept before the appliance is installed, and
should be swept and inspected regularly to ensure that all of the
products of combustion are entering the flue and there is no excessive
build up of soot.
Do not throw rubbish et cetera upon the surface area or otherwise
disturb the fuel bed. Debris from any source, or soot formed, should be
removed from time to time, see ‘Cleaning instructions’.
The pilot light and flame sensing device fitted to this fire is also an
atmosphere sensing device, which shuts off both the main burner and
pilot if evacuation of the combustion products is interrupted. If the fire
shuts itself off, do not use the fire, and have the flue and fire checked
by a suitably qualified person.
Once the flue and fire units have been checked and remedial action
taken, the fire is ignited in the manner depicted in section ‘Lighting the
fire’.
Due to the newness of materials, the fire may give off a slight smell for
a period of time after commissioning. This is quite normal and any
odours should disperse within a few hours of operation.
For some countries a purpose provided air supply must be fitted in
accordance with National Regulations (e.g. Austria – minimum
100 cm
2
).
This fire should be checked regularly to ensure that it is free from
obstruction. A qualified person should service the fire regularly.
NOTE: MANUAL CONTROL VERSION – The bowl must be secure to
the base which it is mounted. If the bowl moves or “rocks” from side
to side when operating the control knob the bowl will become
damaged. In the event of this happening the installer should be
recalled to secure the bowl.
