2.1.4. Lighting Procedure (Optimum Control)
1. Ensure the main burner is off by pressing
the button on the trim marked
(‘small flame/dot’) until clicking is heard
on the valve (see
Figure 12
).
2. With the gas available at the valve press
in the IGNITION KNOB and turn it
anticlockwise to the pilot flame position
(see
Figure 13
).
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 will 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. The
pilot flame should stay alight. If the
flame goes out repeat 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 flame
position.
6. Press and hold the
(‘large flame’)
button (in
Figure 12
) until clicking is
heard (fully open).
7. The main burner will have cross-lit from
the pilot.
8. Now the gas rate can be adjusted to the
desired setting by pressing the
(‘small flame/dot’) button. Any rate
between the pre-set high and low can be
obtained using the two buttons.
9. To switch off the main burner press and
hold the
(‘small flame/dot’) button
until clicking is heard from the valve
(OFF position).
10. 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 minimum positions.

NOTE:
No attempt should be
made to relight the fire for at
least 3 minutes after the pilot
flame has been extinguished
either
intentionally
or
unintentionally.
