Useful tips & recommendations
Once your fire has been fitted, the following recommendations are made to ensure you
enjoy the best results from your purchase;
1
The installation of this appliance must have been carried out by a qualified installer
and in accordance with the requirements of the
Gas Safety (Installation & Use)
Regulations
2
The chimney must be swept before the appliance is installed and checked annually to
ensure continued clearance of combustion products and that there is no excessive
build-up of soot.
3
As with any fire, certain components will become hot in use. Care should be exercised
when approaching the appliance when it is hot. We also recommend that a fireguard,
conforming to BS 6539 or BS 6778, be fitted for the protection of young children, the
elderly or infirm.
4
When new any ceramic components may produce a slight odour, but this will
completely vanish after a few hours of use.
5
Handle any ceramic components gently. They are fragile. A soft brush can be used to
clean them of any excess soot.
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES
should they be washed.
6
Never throw cigarette ends or other foreign matter onto the fire.
7
Never leave the house unattended, with the fire alight, for long periods.
8
Check periodically that any purpose-made ventilation is free from obstruction.
9
To obtain the best results from your fire we recommend that it be serviced annually.

This appliance is fitted with a flue blockage device that will shut off the appliance in the
event of abnormal flue conditions. This device is NOT a substitute for an independently
mounted carbon monoxide detector.
Operation of the fire
1
It should be noted that your fire is fitted with a Flame Supervision Device, which cuts
off the gas supply to your fire if, for any reason the pilot light is extinguished. It also
monitors constantly the oxygen in the room. The pilot flame heats the thermocouple
probe and allows gas to flow to the burners. If due to pilot failure, the thermocouple
cools, no gas will flow to the main burner. If the fire is turned off or the flames go out,
wait for
AT LEAST 3 MINUTES
before attempting to relight the fire.
