3.1
LIGHTING THE APPLIANCE
WARNING
If the fire goes out for any reason or is turned off and it is
necessary to relight the fire it is important to allow the fire to cool
for 3 minutes before attempting to re-light it.
a) Turn on the gas restrictor at the inlet fitting.
b) Depress the control knob and turn anti-clockwise to the position marked pilot. Hold
in the control knob for a few seconds to purge the pipe work.
c) Continue to hold-in the control knob and press the igniter button. If the burner does not
light, continue to press the igniter button until ignition occurs. Continue to hold the
control knob for 5-10 seconds to allow thermocouple to heat up, if the pilot goes out
when the control knob is released, repeat the lighting sequence.
d) Turn the control knob in the anti-clockwise direction to the high position and the main
burner will light.
e) Turn the control knob clockwise to the low position and the gas input will be reduced to
the minimum setting.
f)
Slightly depress the control knob and turn to the pilot position, the main burner will go
out but the pilot will remain lit.
g) Slightly depress the control knob and turn to the off position, the pilot will now be
extinguished.
h) 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 odour may be noticed, this is due to the “newness” of the
fire and will soon disappear.
3.2 CHECKING FOR CLEARANCE OF COMBUSTION PRODUCTS
a) Close all doors and windows in the room.
b) Light the fire and allow to run for approximately 5 minutes on high position.
c) After approximately 5 minutes using a smoke match holder, position the tip of the
smoke match 25mm inside the draft diverter, which is in the centre of the convection air
aperture. All smoke generated should be drawn back into the flue. If slight spillage occurs
or if in doubt, repeat the test after a further 5-10 minutes.
