ABOUT YOUR NEW KOHLANGAZ DELAMERE GAS FIRE

The Kohlangaz Delamere coal effect gas fire incorporates a unique and highly

developed fuel bed which gives the realism of a loose coal layout combined with

realistic flames and glow. The use of durable ceramic material in the construction

of the fuelbed components ensures long and trouble free operation.

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 coals, it is non-toxic and will soon

disappear.

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

WARNING

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

with gas heating appliances).

It is important that this appliance is serviced at least once a year by a GAS SAFE

registered 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.

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 coals must be used and only complete and

genuine replacement sets must be used.

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.

The ceramic fuel bed remains hot for a considerable period after use and

sufficient time should be allowed for the fire to cool before cleaning etc.
