ABOUT YOUR NEW LINEAR PEBBLE FIRE
The Flavel Linear range of pebble fuel-bed gas fires incorporates a unique and
highly developed fuel bed which gives the realism of a loose pebble layout
combined with realistic flames and glow. The use of durable ceramic material in
the construction of the fuel-bed components ensures long and trouble free opera-
tion.
When first using the new fire a slight smell may be noticed. This is due to starch
used in the manufacture of the soft ceramic pebbles, it is non-toxic and will soon
disappear.
Discolouration to both the pebble fuelbed and fibreboards will occur when
first lighting the appliance, this is normal and these components will return
to their normal colour when the fire has fully warmed up.
Please take the time to fully read these instructions as you will then be able to
obtain the most effective and safe operation of your fire.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

This appliance has a naked flame and as with all heating appliances a
fireguard should be used for the protection of children, the elderly and
infirm. Fireguards should conform to B.S. 8423 : 2002 (Fireguards for use

It is important that this appliance is serviced at least once a year by a CORGI reg-
istered gas installer and that during the service the fire is removed from the fire
opening and the chimney or flue visually checked for fallen debris or blockages
which must be removed. The chimney should also be checked to ensure
clearance of flue products. We recommend that during the annual service,
replacement of the Oxypilot is carried out.
These are conditions of the
manufacturers guarantee. After installation or during servicing a spillage
test must always be carried out.
Rubbish of any type must NEVER be thrown onto the fuel-bed, this could affect
safe operation and damage the fire.
Any debris or deposits should be removed from the fuel-bed from time to time.
This may be carried out by referring to the cleaning section as described later in
this book.
Only the correct number and type of pebbles must be used and only complete and
genuine replacement sets must be sourced from BFM Europe Ltd.
Always keep furniture and combustible materials well clear of the fire and never
dry clothing or items either on or near to the fire. Never use aerosols or
flammable cleaning products near to the fire when it is in use.
