8.1
Check the
control
The control position markings on the front fascia are
shown in figure 22.
When first turned on from cold, the flames will appear
predominantly blue.
Please note that, when operating the fire for the first time,
some vapours may be given off which could set off
smoke alarms in the vicinity. These vapours are quite
normal with new appliances. They are totally harmless
and will disappear after a few hours use.
8.1.1
Make sure the slider button is at the off position
(at topmost position marked “
O
” on the fascia).
8.1.2
Open the isolating valve on the inlet elbow.
8.1.3
Slide the button to the bottom (ignition) position
marked

. Retain in this position to ignite the pilot. The burner should ignite at its lowest
setting within 4 seconds of the pilot igniting. Keep at this position for a further 10 seconds
to allow the pilot flame to stabilise.
8.1.4
Release the button. The button should automatically spring up to the low heat
position. If the flames go out at this stage or when checking the rest of the setting
positions, try the full lighting sequence again. If the flames fail after two attempts,
investigate the pilot unit.
8.1.5
Gradually slide the button up to increase the burner setting. The burner should be
at its maximum setting at the high heat position shown in figure 22. You should feel a
check to the button movement at this position.
8.1.6
Slide the control button up past the high heat position to the off (“
O
”) position at
the top of the slide slot. Both pilot and main burner should go out.
While cooling the coals may make some crackling noises. This is quite normal.
