Warning:
Only Straxgas approved ceramic blocks and coals, designed for this appliance, must
be used with this burner. Use of ceramic components from any other supplier will invalidate the

When unpacking the appliance, avoid touching the visible, painted parts as the paint requires
curing (this will take approximately 2 hours under fire. In some cases there may be a slight
odour given off for a short period).

•
Black Broughton Classic
