Visually inspect the appliance. Clean off any marks incurred during installation.
Advise the customer how to operate the fire.
Explain to the customer that the appliance has a flame failure and spillage
monitoring system. Point out the explanation of this system shown in the owner’s guide.

relighting. Stress that if the monitoring system repeatedly shuts off the fire, the
appliance should be switched off and a specialist should be consulted.
Advise that the dressguard can be removed to replace the radiants.

and it will disappear after a short period of use.

fire and always follow the advice in the section headed “Cleaning your fire”.
Advise the user that the appliance can be lit with a match if necessary by inserting
it through the central opening at the bottom of the radiant box.
Recommend that the appliance should be serviced and the chimney inspected by a
competent person (In the UK a CORGI registered person) at least annually.
If the appliance is in premises in the United Kingdom occupied by a tenant, point out
that by law a landlord must have any gas appliance, flue and pipework which is situated
in a tenant’s premises checked for safety at least every 12 months.
Mention that the radiants may become brown with use, that this is quite normal
and has no adverse effect.
