TESTING APPLIANCE OPERATION

After installation, test the appliance and ensure that it 

operates correctly before handing it over to the customer. 

The following procedure is recommended:

1.   Turn on the gas and electricity supply and attempt 

ignition on all burners, both separately and in 

combination. (For correct procedure, refer to page 4). 

Note that additional time needs to be allowed for the 

initial lighting as air has to be purged from the pipes.

2.   Observe the flame appearance on each burner. 

(Figure 12) If it is much larger or much smaller than 

expected, the injector size and supply pressure 

require checking. Where a flame is unsatisfactory, 

refer to the Troubleshooting Guide (Page 6) to 

correct the fault. If the Troubleshooting Guide does 

not solve the problem, call the Service Centre.

Flame size adjusted to minimum

3.   Once all the previous tests are satisfactory, check 

the turndown (minimum or low) setting on each 

burner, as this may need adjustment. Valves have a 

by pass controlling screw, which may be accessed 

by removing the knob. This screw will be located 

on a particular area of the valve. (Refer Figure 13). 

Normally, this will have been correctly set at the 

factory for use on NG (Natural Gas) and should not 

require adjustment.

 

 If the appliance has been converted to LPG, then the 

bypass screw will have to be screwed in until a small, 

stable flame results.

 Please ensure the supply pressure has been checked 

PRIOR to any adjustment.

4.   If the appliance cannot be adjusted to perform safely, 

inform the customer of the problem and affix an 

appropriate warning notice to the appliance. If the 

fault appears to be dangerous the appliance should 

be disconnected. If a minor fault exists, the customer 

may wish to use the appliance while awaiting service.

 

 If a fault cannot be fixed, please call the  

Service Centre.

5.   The customer should be advised that, in the event  

of a fault, the local Service Organisation or the retailer 

from whom the appliance was purchased should  

be contacted.

TESTING APPLIANCE OPERATION

6.   When satisfied that the unit is operating correctly, 

turn off and instruct the customer on correct 

operation as outlined in this booklet. Ask the 

customer to operate the controls to ensure that the 

correct procedure is understood.

WARNING

WARNING

Servicing must only be carried out by an authorised 

service person.

Injector sizes required for various gas types are shown 

in the Technical Data Table (page 11). The appliance inlet 

pressure for each gas type is also shown.

For model identification after installation, an additional 

data plate sticker has been provided. This sticker is to  

be stuck onto adjacent cabinetry.
