Depress the control lever fully downwards to the position marked “Z”. Hold in
position for a few seconds to allow the gas to reach the pilot. Insert the tip of a lit
taper or spill at the pilot head (LHS of burner) This will light the pilot flame and
low rate gas. When the pilot has lit, continue to depress the control lever in for 5-
10 seconds to allow the thermocouple to heat up before releasing the control lever
apply one firm downwards push to ensure that the f.s.d. valve is fully latched.
3)
After lighting, move control lever up to the high position and the main burner
will light. It is recommended that for the most efficient performance the fire is
allowed to warm up for a few minutes with the control lever set to high.
4)
The gas control can be moved from the High (4.0kW) to Low (2.0kW)
position to give the desired heat output.The lever can be set at a position
between the ignition and low position but this will provide only a glow from
the fuel-bed and not visible flames. (See Fig. 1 on previous page).
5)
To turn the fire off, FULLY raise the control lever to the OFF position.
WARNING
If the fire goes out for any reason or is turned off and it is
necessary to relight the fire it is important to allow the fire to cool
for 3 minutes before attempting to re-light it.
SPILLAGE MONITORING SYSTEM
This appliance is fitted with a spillage monitoring system which shuts down the fire
if the evacuation of combustion products from the fire is affected by a partially or
fully blocked flue. If this system operates the fire will go out. If this occurs, leave
the fire for at least three minutes then follow the lighting procedure as described in
the previous section. In the event of repeated operation a GAS SAFE
registered gas installer must be called to investigate and rectify the cause.
