SEISMIC RESTRAINT

New Zealand regulations require that flued gas heaters be secured to prevent shifting in the event of an
earthquake. This is best done by fastening the heater to the floor right through the floor protector if one is
fitted. Fasten with two screws not less than 12 gauge or the equivalent in coach screws or toggle fasteners.
Anchor the appliance through the holes in the seismic restraint bracket or in the two angle brackets supplied.
The angle brackets attach at each side of the pedestal. If the seismic restraint bracket is used, it can be
fastened to the rear of the pedestal either before or after fitting the anchor screws. The small centreline hole
in the bracket will help in pre-positioning it.

TEST FIRING

It is absolutely essential that the installer test fires the heater before leaving the site.

If fitted, open the gas supply valve at the rear of the heater and check all gas joints for leakage using a leak
check solution or an electronic ‘sniffer’, NOT a naked flame.

Test fire the heater, following the lighting instructions on page 6 of this manual.

First check that the pilot light ignites satisfactorily. Initially it may take several attempts until the air is purged
from the pipeline. Once it has lit, extinguish it again and verify instant re-ignition.

Light the main burner to verify satisfactory ignition and cross-lighting. Repeat this procedure several times.
Always wait two or three minutes after turning off the main burner before lighting it again. The main burner
should be test run for at least ten minutes.

After the fire has been alight for five minutes on ‘HIGH’, hold a smoking taper or match at the exit of the
draught hood (behind the heater) to verify that the flue is drawing correctly and that flue gases are not
spilling into the room.

Drawn in: No spillage

Blown out: Spillage/Backdraughting

If satisfactory operation cannot be achieved, contact the Retailer for further advice.

IMPORTANT. It is the responsibility of the installer to instruct the customer on the safe and

correct operation of the appliance, and to ensure that this instruction booklet remains with the

customer.
