If there are still problems the chimney may require atten-
tion.

2.8.1. Troubleshooting chart
Piezo-electric igniter : The spark between the electrode
and the head of the pilot light is not clean; there is no spark
when the lighter is operated.
- Check the contact of the high tension cable of the spark
plug. When the end of the cable is held at about 3 mm from
the end of the spark plug, a spark should be produced
when the piezo-elertric igniter is operated.
- Check that the insulation of the spark plug is not cracked,
and replaoe the spark plug if necessary.
The thermocouple : When the unit is started up, the pilot
light flame goes out when the handle is turned from the
“ignite” position to the “pilot light” position.
•
The thermocouple is not at a high enough temperature,
the pilot light flame is too short.
- Check that the injector (p. 15, fig. 8, # 8) is not partially
blocked.
To gain access to the injector, the coals and the burner
must first be dismounted (3 screws).
•
Bad contact at the connection of the thermocouple to the
valve.
- Check the tightness of the screw. It should be reasonably
tight.
•
Carbon deposit on the end of the thermocouple, which
reduces temperature transmission.
- Clean the end of the thermocouple with emery paper.
2.8.2. Servicing instructions
These instructions are meant to be used in conjunction
with the normal servicing practices which an installer
would normally use.
- Open the stove door by releasing the door latch.
- Remove the coals carefully and replace any which are
damaged or broken.
- Clean any deposition of lint off the burner. This can be
done with a soft brush.
- Inspect the burner unit.
- Relay the fire in line with the instructions “arranging the
layout of the coals”.
- There should be no need to service the burner. If however
this is required, a CORGI registered fitter should check the
setting pressure at the nozzle on the gas inlet of the
burner. The correct pressure required is stated on the data
information plate.
Please explain to the customer the lighting and extin-
guishing procedures.

User instructions
It is very important to read these instructions
thoroughly before lighting the stove
3.1. Important Notes
• Ensure that the stove corresponds to the type of gas it is
to be used with. This can be confirmed by checking the
data badge located on the rear face of the appliance.
• Remember at all times this product is concerned with
high temperatures, and appropriate care should always be
taken.
• Bear in mind that heat given off by the appliance may
affect articles placed close to it. Curtains should not be
positioned above the appliance at a distance less than 12”
(30 centimetres) from the top
• The appliance was not designed to be used as a dryer. It
is therefore not recommended that the appliance is used in
such a manner.
• Under no circumstances should the appliance be opera-
ted with the door open or the door glass damaged.
• A combustible shelf may be fitted over the appliance
provided that in the case of a 150 mm or less deep shelf,
there is at least 610 mm clearance above the top of the fire
(measured from its highest point).
• Please remember that parts of the appliance become hot
during and after use. If young children, the elderly, or infirm
are likely to be near the stove, ensure a suitable fire guard
(BS6539 or BS6778) is erected.
• Whilst the appliance is called a ‘stove’ the Belfort is not
designed to be used in any way as a cooker. The stove
should not be used for any other purpose than as a
room heater and decorative stove.
3.2. Data information
The data badge is located on the rear face of the
appliance.
3.3. Arranging the layout of the coals.
The coals should be arranged as shown on the coal layout
given in the installer instructions.
DO NOT OBSTRUCT THE PILOT
FRANCO BELGE accept no responsibility for any injury
sustained whilst handling hot ceramics.
3.4. Operating the stove

If the Flame Supervision Devise Actuating Flame (the Pilot
Light) is extinguished either by intention or not, no attempt
should be made to re-light until 3 minutes have elapsed.
Igniting the permanent pilot light
- Depress control knob fully
- Whilst depressed, turn knob sharply 90 degrees anti-
clockwise to ‘PILOT’ setting. Repeat until pilot light is
visibly lit
- KEEP KNOB DEPRESSED AT THIS POINT FOR 15 - 20
SECONDS.
