Unpacking the Appliance 

 

Carefully examine the carton for damage before proceeding.  If it is obviously 

damaged, please contact supplier to discuss whether to proceed.  
Please check your delivery note. Any missing parts must be notified within 48 

hours of delivery and prior to installation.   
If the carton is undamaged remove the gas  fire  from the packaging and 

examine its general condition.  If satisfied by the condition, proceed with the 

installation. 

Please note no claims will be accepted for any  damaged 

components once the appliance has been installed. 

 

Read this installation booklet fully before starting to install the appliance. 

Special note should be taken to the different installation requirements of the 

two versions (FR-850-V and FR-850-NV). Check the delivery paperwork and 

Data Plate inside the fire to confirm which version was purchased by the 

customer. 

 

The installation should only be carried out by a GAS SAFE registered engineer, 

and in accordance with national and local regulations for gas. The installation 

must also be in accordance with relevant parts of local and national building 

regulations.  Failure to have the fire fitted by a qualified person nullifies ALL 

warranties and guarantees and may render the appliance dangerous. For the 

Republic of Ireland, reference should be made to IS813 and ICP3 and any 

guidance notes from Bord Gais.
