MAINTENANCE
Servicing Notes
Servicing should be carried out annually by a competent person such as a GAS
SAFE registered engineer.
This is a condition of the guarantee schemes.
The service should include visually checking the chimney and fire opening for
accumulations of debris and a smoke test to check for a positive up-draught in the
chimney. To access the debris collection void a removeable plate is positioned on
the rear face of the firebox box behind the burner. The oxypilot on the burner unit
must also be changed as a condition of the guarantee. The condition of the
fuel-bed should be checked and
if necessary the whole item should be
replaced with a genuine replacement item.
The burner assembly is designed to
be removed as a complete unit for ease of access.
After any servicing work a
gas tightness check must always be carried out.
BEFORE ANY SERVICING WORK IS CARRIED OUT ENSURE THE PRODUCT
HAS BEEN DISCONNECTED FROM THE ELECTRICITY SUPPLY. ALL
ELECTRICAL REPAIR WORK MUST BE CARRIED OUT BY A COMPETENT,
