IMPORTANT NOTES
This appliance is a high efficiency, flueless catalytic flame effect gas fire. It provides radiant and convected warmth
both efficiently and safely utilising the latest type catalytic converter and burner technology. The appliance does not
require a flue system of any type as the catalytic converter cleans the flue products to provide a complete combus-
tion system, which is intrinsically safe. It is designed to operate on Natural Gas and is factory set for operation on
the gas type, and at the pressure stated on the appliance data plate.
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.
It is the LAW that all gas appliances and fittings are installed by a competent person and in accordance with the Gas
Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998, the relevant British Standards for Installation, Codes of Practice and
the Manufacturers' Instructions. At the time of writing, CORGI registered operatives are the only class of person
considered as 'competent' by the HSE under the above regulations.The installation shall also be carried out in accor-
dance with the following:
•
Manufacturers' Instructions.
•
The Building Regulations issued by the Department for Communities and Local Government, the Building
Standards (Scotland) (Consolidation) Regulations issued by the Scottish Development Department.
•
Relevant British standards insofar as the relevant areas are not covered by these instructions.
•
For Republic of Ireland, reference should be made to the current edition of IS813 (the relevant standards
governing installation).
Failure to comply with the above could lead to prosecution and deem the manufacturer’s warranty invalid.
This appliance must be installed in accordance with the rules in force and used only in a sufficiently ventilated space.
The appliance is designed to fit various types of situations as described in sections 3.0 and 4.0.The appliance must
be installed in a correctly sized room (see section 3.1), and the correct purpose provided ventilation must be pro-
vided (see section 4.1).
It should be noted that heaters create warm air currents. These currents move heat to wall surfaces next to the
heater. Installing the heater next to vinyl or cloth wall coverings or operating the heater where impurities in the air
(such as tobacco smoke, candle smoke etc.) exist, may cause the walls to become discoloured.
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. If the appliance is used in a room as the sole source of heat, then condensation may
occur on colder surfaces within the room.
On first light up of a new appliance, initial curing of high temperature paint and burning off of lubricants may occur
for 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. During this period the appliance may cause smoke alarms to sound. If this happens, reset the alarms, but
do not remove the batteries.
Consult ALL instructions before installation and use of this appliance. This appliance is free from any asbestos mate-
rial.
