4.6 INFORM THE CUSTOMER OF THE FOLLOWING TO COMPLETE THE INSTALLATION
Demonstrate the lighng of the appliance and the controls to control the heat seBngs.
Demonstrate how to turn the fire off.
Demonstrate the removal of the door frame and how to reinstall correctly.
Discuss the removal and reinstallaon of the glass door and the ceramics. Explain how
they should be cleaned and make the customer aware of the health and safety warning
detailed in these instrucons.
Explain to the customer that the ceramics are fragile and must be treated with great
care, explain that the ceramics are not covered by the warranty because of their fragility.
Also explain that small hairline cracks will appear in the surface of the ceramics due to
heat expansion and contracon—this is perfectly normal.
During the first several hours of use an odour will be experienced—this is normal and is
the starch, oils and paints used in the manufacturing process. This odour is non toxic and
will eventually disappear with use.
Advise the customer that ALL glass fronted gas appliances will leave condensaon on the
inside face of the glass when first lit—this is perfectly normal and is a result of the water
vapour present in the combuson products hiBng the cold glass surface. This
condensate will disappear over the next minute or so. It is also important to advise the
customer that this condensate will carry with it any
impuri;es in the air
and will
therefore, with use, leave a
slight grey condensa;on mark
on the inside of the glass. We
advise that this is cleaned off maybe 2 to 3 mes a year, dependant on use.
Advise that no rubbish should be thrown onto the appliance and that the appliance
should be cleaned regularly.
Advise the customer that the appliance should be serviced annually by a gas safe
engineer to ensure the safety and integrity of the appliance.
Advise the customer that the appliance has a naked flame and therefore it is essenal
that a suitable fireguard be used for the protecon of the elderly, infirm and young
children. This fireguard should conform to BS8423 : 2002 (Fireguards or use with Gas
Heang Appliances).
These instruc;ons and all supplied installa;on tools must be
handed over to the customer once installa;on is complete.
