Finally, place the rear row of two coals.
IMPORTANT : The fire is designed to operate correctly with the coals
supplied when assembled according to the instructions. Never add to
the fifteen coals, or change them for a different type. Never throw rub-
bish or other matter onto the coal bed.
The fire and flue should be checked on an annual basis to ensure all of the products of combustion are entering the flue and that there
is no excessive build up of soot. The frequency of service will depend on usage, but MUST be carried out at least once annually. Servicing
must be carried out by a GAS SAFE registered engineer.
Cleaning of the coals/pebbles may be carried out by following the instructions given in section 9.0 of these instructions. The Installation
instructions carry full servicing details for the use of the installer.
If debris from the flue or other foreign matter is found on the fire it may indicate a need for servicing. Do not use the fire until the
source of the debris has been found and rectified. Air vents (where fitted) should be checked periodically to ensure they are free from
obstruction.
Before carrying out any of the following operations, ensure that the fire is OFF and completely cold.
FIREFRONT - Any dust accumulating in the firefront may be removed using a vacuum cleaner or dry cloth. Heavy stains may be removed
by using a damp cloth and mild household detergent. Brass parts of the firefront may be cleaned using a suitable brass cleaner. Replace
the front centrally against the fire after cleaning. Do not use a damp cloth to clean cast iron fronts (Soho, and Finsbury models) as this
can cause the fronts to rust.
PAINTED AREAS - These can be cleaned using a dry cloth.
COALS AND CERAMICS - Remove the firefront and place to one side. Remove the ceramic components. Gently clean in the open air.
Be careful not to create dust from the coals. Where necessary replace damaged components with genuine spares. Seal scrap compo-
nents in plastic bags and dispose of at proper refuse sites as directed.
Re-fit the ceramics carefully by referring to section 7.0 of these instructions.
Handset - Remove cover from rear of handset and insert 1 x ‘PP3’ (9 volt) battery - Replace
cover
Appliance - Ensure appliance is off and cool. Remove cover from top of receiver box. The
cover is protected by reflective foil, and located towards the right hand side, underneath the
burner unit. Insert 4 x ‘AA’ (1.5 volt) batteries - Replace cover.
Slide control models
Ensure appliance is off and cool. The battery is located in the front of the ignition unit, on
the right hand side of the burner (shown in figure 23). Unscrew the battery holder cap. Insert 1
x ‘AA’ (1.5 volt) battery. Replace cap.
