PART2: 

 

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

How to light your fire

The controls are shown in figure 2.

 

Check that the main isolating switch is on.

 

Remove the bottom front cover. The controls are behind this cover

 

Check that the red indicator light is on (this is located at the lower left
hand side of the burner).

 

Press and hold in the “ON” switch. Within two seconds, the fan motor
should start and the indicator light should go out

 

Release the “ON” switch. The fan should continue to run.

 

Depress the control knob and turn partially to the “PILOT/IGN”
position until you feel some resistance.

 

Keep the knob depressed at this position for a few seconds to allow  gas
to flow to the pilot.

 

While keeping the knob depressed, turn to the “PILOT/IGN” position.
While turning, a spark should light the pilot. The pilot flame can be
seen below the round coal at the front left side.

 

Keep the knob depressed at the “PILOT/IGN” position for a further
ten seconds then release it. The pilot flame should stay alight.

 

Slightly depress the knob and turn it to “LOW”. Release the knob. Within a few seconds
the main burner should light at its low setting.

 

Slightly depress the knob and gradually turn it towards “HIGH” until the burner is at
your desired setting. The burner flames will gradually increase until the knob is at the
“HIGH” position.

 

If the spark ignition fails, the fire can be lit manually by inserting a lighted taper alongside
the left side inside the fire box (as shown in figure 3) and depressing the control knob at
the “PILOT/IGN” position.

Note: 

If the fire goes out while setting the control, repeat the full lighting procedure. If the

fire repeatedly goes out, have the fire serviced

.

How to turn your fire off

 

To turn off the main burner but leave the pilot alight 

slightly depress the control

knob and turn to “PILOT/IGN”. Leave the fan switched on.

 

To turn the fire fully off 

slightly depress the control knob and turn to “OFF”. Press

the “OFF” switch to turn the fan off. The indicator light will come on to show that the
electrical supply to the fire is live. If the fire is not likely  to be used again for a long time we
suggest that the mains isolating switch for the fire is switched off.

 

Wait at least three minutes after turning the fire off before relighting.

 

While cooling, the coals may make some crackling noises. This is quite normal.

The flame sensing & flue blockage safety system

 

For your safety, this appliance is fitted with a flue blockage safety device which will shut
down the appliance in the event of abnormal flue conditions.

 

 This device will also shut down the appliance if the pilot flame goes out due to lack of
oxygen or for any other reason.

 

The system includes a probe which senses the heat from the pilot flame. If this probe is cool,
the system will prevent any gas flow unless the control knob is kept depressed at the
“PILOT/IGN” position.

 

The system also includes an atmospheric pressure detector. This will shut off the gas supply
if the fan is not working.

 

If there is a blockage preventing the flow of exhaust fumes out of the flue, the fan will switch
to a high boost speed to attempt to clear the blockage. If the boost speed does not clear the
flue, the pressure detector will shut off the gas supply.

 

If the flames go out, or if for any reason the fire is turned off, always wait at least 3 minutes
before attempting to relight.

 

If this device starts to shut off the gas frequently please get expert advice from the Valor
Advice Line on 0345 626341 (local call rates apply in the United Kingdom).

 

This device is

 

NOT a substitute for an independently mounted Carbon Monoxide detector.
