2.1.2. Lighting Procedure (Remote Control)
1. Press the bottom button on the remote
handset until clicking is heard on the
valve, and the gas rate adjustment knob
is at the off position.
2. With gas available at the valve press the
IGNITION KNOB (see
Figure 5
) in and
turn it anticlockwise to the pilot flame
position. A click of the piezo igniter will
be heard and a spark will appear at the
electrode. At the same time the gas will
flow to the pilot burner and should be
ignited by the spark. Repeat the
procedure until the pilot flame is
established.
3. Keep the knob pressed in for a further 10
- 12 seconds and slowly release it. The
pilot flame should stay alight. If the
flame goes out repeat the procedure
above to establish the pilot.
4. If the spark unit fails to light the pilot, the
appliance may be lit manually by
applying a lighted match or taper to the
pilot jet and following the above
procedure.
5.
Turn the IGNITION KNOB
anticlockwise to the Main Burner
Operation position as shown in Figure
5.
6. Using the HANDSET (as shown in
Figure 6
) press and hold
both the top
and the small button together
until the
main burner goes to full rate and clicking
can be heard from the valve. During this
process the main burner will ignite from
the pilot.
7. By pressing the two buttons together (to
increase the gas rate) and the lower
button only (to decrease the gas rate)
the valve can be manipulated to select
the desired gas rate between maximum
and minimum. By pressing the buttons
in short bursts you will be able to adjust
the gas rate in small steps.
8. To turn the fire off, continuously press
the lower button until the flame dies
down and clicks can be heard from the
valve. Release the button as soon as
the clicks are heard.
9. The fire can safely be left in this position
at all times, however to prevent
unauthorised or accidental use (say by
children) it is recommended to turn the
IGNITION KNOB to the pilot flame
position by turning it 90 degrees
clockwise. To turn the pilot off, turn the
IGNITION KNOB fully clockwise.
NOTE:
The clicking sound
made by the valve is the
operation of the valve clutch,
and indicates either maximum
or off position.

unintentionally.
