INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Preliminary Notes Before Installation

This appliance is a high efficiency, flueless, flame effect gas fire.  It provides
radiant and convected warmth both efficiently and safely utilising the latest
type catalytic convertor burner technology.

The appliance incorporates a combustion monitoring system (Oxygen
Depletion System). It must not be adjusted or put out of operation. If replaced
then manufacturers original parts must be used.

The appliance is designed to fit various types of situations as listed in the
Installation Requirements.  

This appliance must be installed in accordance with the rules in force and only
used in a sufficiently ventilated space.  A minimum of 100cm

(15.5in

2

) pur-

pose provided ventilation is required for this appliance. An openable window
or louvre is also required. This appliance is factory set for operation on the gas
type, and at the pressure stated on the appliance data plate.

The room size should be a minimum of 23m

3

(812ft

3

) to allow adequate circu-

lation of air and ensure the correct operation of the fire. This volume may
include adjacent spaces but these spaces must not be separated by a door. In
order to convert from cubic feet (ft

3

) to cubic metres (m

3

) divide the room vol-

ume (in ft

3

) by 35.3. This appliance is intended as a secondary source of heat

only and should not be used in a room without some form of background
heating present.

The appliance must not be installed in a bedroom, bathroom or any sleeping
area.  The appliance does not require a flue system of any type as the catalytic
converter cleans the flue products to provide a complete combustion system,
which is intrinsically safe.

The appliance must be installed by a competent person in accordance with Gas
Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998 or rules in force. It is strongly
recommended that a CORGI registered engineer is used for this purpose, as
they are the only persons approved by the HSE under the above regulations.

On initial lightup of a new appliance, the ‘newness’ will burn off within the first
few hours of operation. During this period some smoke may be emitted from
outlet grille, this should be no cause for concern.  Accordingly, the room
should be well ventilated with all windows and doors open during this period.

Read all these instructions before commencing installation.
