7. Appliance Commissioning Instructions
The burner inlet flow rates are factory set and sealed. Under no circumstances should these
settings be changed. The aeration is fixed. Do not change the burner aeration.
Step 1: The appliance is supplied with a pressure test elbow and gas tap. Connect an 8mm
gas supply to the tap and test for leaks. Remove the screw from the test point within
the appliance and connect a manometer.
Step 2: The appliance requires 6 x “AA” Lithium batteries to operate. Using lower quality
batteries is not advised. The Battery Pack is disconnected when supplied to increase
the life of the batteries.
Reconnect the battery by plugging in the socket.
Step 3: The appliance is supplied with an Infra-Red Remote Control Unit which is operated
via a hand set and magic eye positioned on the right hand side of the enclosure.
There is also a manual wall switch.
Step 4: Light the appliance as shown in section 7. Once lit turn the appliance onto the full
setting and read the gas pressure from the manometer attached to the inlet test
point elbow – WITHIN THE APPLIANCE.
Step 5:
It is very important that this test is performed as stated to ensure the appliance is
safe and reliable.
The inlet supply pressure must be within (+/- 1mb) of the pressure
stated on the Data Plate. For example a 20mBar NG appliance must read between
19mbar and 21mBar. Light all other gas appliances in the house, including central
heating systems and check the inlet pressure again. The pressure must still be within
the tolerance of +/- 1mb. Now turn off all the other gas appliances and turn the
appliance down to pilot only, the pressure must still be in the tolerance of +/- 1mb.
These 3 tests will ensure the fireplace is safe.
