material when hot. A propriety non-abrasive ceramic hob cleaner such as ‘hob brite’ can be used to
clean the glass.
9. When the heater is not used for a time, ensure the gas control or adjacent isolator is turned off.
The heater is not to be used for a time, ensure the gas control or adjacent isolator is turned off.
10. The heater must not be used in rooms where the atmosphere is likely to contain water or
chemical vapours, which may adversely affect the appliance or its finish.
11. Do not use whilst painting & decorating, or in newly decorated rooms as the residue can lead to
unpleasant smells from the appliance. Always cover or have the appliance removed when
decorating.
CONTROLS
The fire is fitted with a gas valve and a thermostat. The thermostat automatically regulates the
room temperature by turning the heat output (flames) up or down between high, half or pilot only.
.
The thermostat bulb must be resited to a cool area to measure the air temperature in the room
more accurately.
See installation instructions or consult the manufacturer.
LIGHTING PROCEDURE
Make sure there is no smell of gas
1.
Open the lower cover to reveal the gas control.
2.
There are 2 control knobs on the appliance. The left hand one (coloured red) controls On / Off
and High / Low flame. The right hand one (coloured black) is the comfort level thermostat which
turns the fire to pilot position once the desired temperature is reached. Some people prefer to
retain a flame effect using the left hand knob to control its height whilst keeping the thermostat set
on hot. Others prefer to use the fire purely as a heater in which case they will select a flame height
then set the thermostat to a comfort level. In both cases if the room gets too hot, the thermostat
will reduce the fire to pilot setting. If during use the pilot is alight but the main burner will not light,
check the thermostat position and if necessary select a warmer setting.
3.
To light the fire, press the left hand (red) control knob for several seconds then turn
anticlockwise to the ignition position. A click will be heard and the pilot (under right side of fuel
bed) should light. If it does not repeat the operation a few times. Continue to hold knob for 15 – 20
sec's to establish the pilot and then release. If pilot fails to establish, turn off, wait 1 minute then
repeat the lighting procedure. Rotate the control knob to high flame to light then back to the
desired flame position. If no gas comes through rotate the right knob (thermostat) to a hotter room
setting and the fire will light.
4.
Control the fire by a combination of thermostat and / or flame setting to suit your mode of use
5.
To turn the fire off, rotate the left hand knob fully clockwise.
NOTES
1
The first time that the appliance is used, there will be some odour produced due to the
newness of the materials. It is recommended that the unit is fired at maximum setting for
several hours and the room is kept ventilated during this period. It is usual for flueless
appliances to produce an initial odour after start up.
2
When the pilot flame is alight, the unit may be controlled by turning the knob anywhere
between 1 and 7. If the pilot flame should ever extinguish of its own accord, ventilate the
room and allow a minimum of 5 minutes before relighting.
3
Never attempt to relight the unit if there is a gas smell.
