Legend Gas Fires recommend that this appliance is serviced at regular 12 monthly intervals. The
chimney or flue should also be checked regularly to ensure that all products of combustion are entering
the flue and there is no excessive build up of soot.
It is the users responsibility to ensure that the appliance is kept in a clean serviceable condition.

1. 

Ceramic Components and Fuel Bed

- Debris from any

source should be removed with a soft brush. Please ensure
that any debris including soot deposits are removed from the
appliance and not left on the fuel bed. It is recommended that
the user should, on a regular quarterly basis, carefully
remove all ceramic components and thoroughly clean the
stainless steel burner strip and the pilot assembly. Any build
up of debris in this area could affect the operation of the
appliance.

NOTE

: It is common to find surface cracks in the ceramic components. This is due to the expansion and

contraction of the ceramic fibres caused by the intense heat that the burner generates. The cracks will not
affect the safe operation of this appliance. However great care must be taken when handling the ceramic
components as they will break if handled incorrectly. Do not use a vacuum cleaner to clean the ceramics.

2. 

Radiant Box Ceramic Liners

- Use only a soft brush to remove any soot deposits from the ceramic liners

during cleaning as this is the only method that can be used to remove deposits. The ceramic liners are very
delicate and should be treated accordingly.

3. 

Brass Trims and Frets

- The brass trim and fret should be removed from the appliance for cleaning, please

ensure that the appliance has cooled thoroughly. Polished metal trims and frets are not lacquer coated and
therefore require polishing. It is recommended that a good quality metal polish is used.

4. 

Slide Control Lever - 

The slide control mechanism should be greased annually with high temperature

grease. Place a small amount of the grease at the top and bottom of the lever guide and operate the lever
several times to work the grease into the lever guide.

5. 

Battery Replacement - 

The battery will need replacing during the life time of the fire. To change the battery

switch off the appliance and allow it to cool down. Remove the fire front and locate the 9 volt battery (located on
the bottom left hand side of the appliance). Replace  with a good quality alkaline battery
