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.

8.2

Check For Spillage
A spillage check must be made before 
leaving the installed appliance with the 
customer.  
Make this check with the appliance fully 
installed with the ceramics and fascia 
casting in position.

8.2.1

Close all doors and windows in the room 
containing the appliance.

8.2.2

Light the appliance and set the slide 
control to the maximum burning position.

8.2.3

Leave the appliance on for five minutes.

8.2.4

Fit a smoke match into a tube, light it and 
insert it into the appliance canopy at the 
position shown in Fig.23.

8.2.5

The installation is satisfactory if the 
smoke is drawn into the appliance.  If the 
smoke is not drawn into the appliance, 
leave the appliance alight at the maximum
setting for a further ten minutes and then 
repeat the test.  If smoke is still not drawn
into the appliance, inspect the sealing to 
the fireplace surround. If smoke is still not
drawn into the appliance, 

disconnect the 

appliance and seek expert advice.

8.2.6

If the above test is satisfactory, open all 
internal connecting doors, hatches, 
etc., in the room.  Keep all doors and 
windows that open to the outside of the 
building closed.  Recheck for spillage as 
above.  If an extractor fan is installed in 
the same room as the appliance or a 
connecting room, check that spillage does
not occur with the fan operating and all 
doors and other openings between the fan
and the appliance open.

8.2.7

If the smoke is drawn into the appliance, 
continue with the installation.  If the 
test is not satisfactory, 

disconnect the 

appliance and advise the customer of 
the cause of failure.
