OPERATION OF THE FIRE
1
. This fire is controlled by a 4 position gas tap mounted on the front leg of the appliance
(see Fig 1). In addition to the OFF position there is a pilot light and 2 heat control
settings.
As a safety feature all fires are equipped with a flame supervision device which will shut
off the supply of gas in the unlikely event that the fire is extinguished.
2. To Light The Pilot
Depress the control knob and turn anticlockwise towards the PILOT/IGN position. A
spark should be generated at the pilot while turning. The spark should ignite the pilot.
The pilot flame can be seen below the dress coal at the front left side.
Keep the button at the PILOT/IGN position for a further ten seconds. This will prevent
the flame sensing device from shutting off the gas while its probe warms up.
If the pilot does not ignite instantly, repeat procedure until ignition is achieved.
NOTE: If after 10 seconds pilot ignition has not occurred, turn the control knob back to the OFF position, wait for 3
minutes and then repeat the ignition procedure.
3. Lighting The Main Burner
Once the pilot light is established, the main burner can be lit by depressing and turning the control knob anticlockwise to
the HIGH position.
4.
Controlling the Heat Setting
In order to change from one setting to another depress the control knob slightly and turn the knob to the required
position. Alternatively, if a setting between LOW and HIGH is required the control may be set in this position.
Note:
Do not operate your fire at the HIGH setting for more than a few minutes in the first eight hours following
installation. This will avoid thermal shock to the coals and burner surface. Minor surface cracking of the burner is normal
and not a cause for concern.
5.
To Turn the fire back to Pilot Setting
Depress the control knob and turn clockwise until the pilot setting is reached.
6.
To Turn the Appliance Off
Ensure that the control knob is in the pilot position. Depress the control knob and turn clockwise to the OFF position.
