Do
provide a suitable guard that complies with BS 8423 for the protection of young
children, the elderly, the infirm and pet animals
(
Although this fire conforms to all the
applicable standards, it is a heating appliance and certain parts of its surface will
become hot).
Note: The guard supplied with the fire acts as a fireguard conforming to BS1945:1971
and satisfies the Heating Appliance (Fireguard) (Safety) Regulations 1991.
Do
wait three minutes before attempting to relight if the fire is switched off or the
flames are extinguished for any reason. (Your fire is fitted with a safety device that will
automatically shut off the gas supply to the fire if, for any reason, the flames go out.)
Do
get advice about the suitability of any wall covering near your fire. Soft wall
coverings (e.g. embossed vinyl, etc.) which have a raised pattern are easily affected
by heat. They may, therefore, scorch or become discoloured when close to a heating
appliance. Please bear this in mind whenever you are considering redecorating.
Do
provide a minimum clearance of 50mm between the fascia sides and any corner
wall having combustible material or other combustible surface which projects beyond
the front of the fire (See figure 2). Please bear this in mind if ever you are considering
altering the room.
Don’t
hang clothing, towels or any other fabrics over the fire.
Don’t
fill in the space behind the fascia.
Don’t
use the fire without the dress guard being in position.
Don’t
attempt to clean or service the fire until it has been switched off and allowed to
completely.
Don’t
use the fire with damaged radiants.
