Lighting Procedure
1. To light the fire, remove the ash pan cover.
2. To switch on the appliance, first turn the mains electricity supply on at
the fused spur or switched plug. Switch on the fan by depressing the
fan switch on the control panel under the burner left hand corner.
After a few seconds the fan will achieve optimum speed and the air
pressure switch will detect adequate air flow and open the solenoid
valve. When this occurs, the green neon indicator on the control
panel will illuminate, indicating that gas is now available at the burner.
3. Control knob to be in POSITION 1 at commencement of the ignition
sequence.
4. Fully depress control knob and turn anticlockwise to POSITION 2 where it reaches a natural restriction (allow
a couple of seconds for the pilot gas to purge through the pipe). A sparking click is heard/felt and the pilot flame
is then lit (the fire can safely be left on permanent pilot at this stage for future lighting if preferred or can be
ignited every time the fire is lit). The pilot assembly is located at the front lefthand side of the fire, and when
ignited (this can take two or three ‘clicks’) it can be seen through the front coal set. Keep the knob depressed for
10/15 seconds to allow the thermocouple to establish the pilot flame. The knob can then be released.
5. The operating level of the burner is now set by turning the control knob from the pilot POSITION 2 through the
maximum setting POSITION 3 to the minimum POSITION 4. The control knob is adjustable between these two
positions.
6. To turn off the appliance, depress the control knob and turn clockwise until the POSITION 2 is reached. The
main burner will go out but the pilot light will still be lit. The pilot can then be extinguished by depressing the
control knob and then turning to the off POSITION 1.
