Propane gas.

Propane gas appliances must not be installed in a cellar, basement or other room

which is built entirely below ground level (See Gas Safety (Installation and use)

Regulations).

Gas connection.

A nut and olive are provided for an 8mm pipe inlet connection to the elbow at the

bottom front of the appliance. The elbow can be rotated to allow a connection from

any direction. The elbow includes a valve for isolating the gas supply.

The supply pipe must be rigid material. Flexible pipe must not be used.

Note: Prior to connecting the gas supply it is advisable to blow out the gas

supply so that any dirt which may be present in the pipe is cleared and cannot

enter the gas valve or pilot burner and so cause a blockage.

With the supply connected pressure check the installation pipework for gas

soundness. In the United Kingdom check in accordance with the current edition of

BS6891. In the Republic of Ireland check in accordance with the rules in force.

Fitting the ceramic fuel effect.

The installer and owner guide for the ceramic fuel effect is supplied with the ceramic

fuel effect. It is important that the installer guide for the ceramic fuel effect be placed

inside or attached to this guide and handed to the customer following completion of

the ‘Final review and servicing’ section.
