10. FULL OPERATING CHECKS
Spillage check.
!
A spillage check must be made before
leaving the installed appliance with the
customer. Make this with all the ceramic fuel
effect pieces and firefronts / castings are in
position (See figure 16 ).
!
Close all doors and windows in the room
containing the appliance. Light the appliance
and set the control to the ‘HIGH’ position.
Leave the appliance on for five minutes. See
lighting instructions within section 7 of this
guide.
!
The end of the smoke match should be level
with the front face of the fireplace opening.
!
The installation is satisfactory if the smoke
is drawn into the fireplace opening. If the smoke
is not drawn into the fireplace opening, leave the appliance alight at the maximum
setting for a further ten minutes and then repeat the test. If smoke is still not drawn into
the appliance
disconnect the appliance and seek expert advice.
!
If the above test is satisfactory, open all internal connecting doors, hatches, etc. in
the room. Keep all doors and windows that open to the outside of the building closed.
Switch on any extractor fan installed in the same room as the appliance or a connecting
room. Open all doors and other openings between the fan and the appliance. Recheck
for spillage as above. If the smoke is drawn into the appliance, continue with the
installation. If the test is not satisfactory,
disconnect the appliance and advise the
customer of the cause of failure.
Flame Supervision & Spillage Monitoring System
The pilot unit incorporates a system that will automatically shut off the gas supply if the
pilot flame goes out or if there is insufficient oxygen due to spillage or lack of
ventilation.
Check that the system operates properly as follows:
!
Light the appliance. Set at the “HIGH” position and leave for one minute.
!
Turn back to “OFF” to extinguish the pilot.
Note the time when the pilot goes out.
Listen for a snap sound at the gas tap.
Note the time when the sound is heard.
