OPERATING YOUR FIRE
The pilot may be left alight. It is advisable, however, that the pilot is turned off if the
premises are to be left unoccupied for a lengthy period.
For your safety the fire is fitted with a flame supervision device which will shut off the
gas supply if for any reason the pilot goes out. This device incorporates a fixed probe
which senses the heat from the pilot flame. If the probe is cool the device will prevent
any gas flow unless the pilot lighting knob is held in. This device also stops the fire
being turned back on until it is safe after it has been turned off.
If, for any reason, the fire goes out or if the fire is turned off, always
wait at least
three minutes before attempting to relight
If the device starts to shut off the gas frequently, get expert advice
To light the pilot
•
Push in the right control knob (the
pilot lighting knob) and, while keeping
it depressed, turn anticlockwise
through the ignition position marked
and up to the pilot position marked .
The spark should light the pilot. The
pilot flame can be seen by looking
through the gap near the left side of
the coal front (See figure 3).
•
When the pilot has lit, keep the right
hand control knob depressed for a few
seconds to prevent the flame supervision device
from shutting off the gas supply while its probe
warms up, as explained above, then release it. If
the pilot does not remain alight turn the knob back
to the off position marked
•
.
Wait a few seconds
and repeat the lighting sequence.
To Light the Main Burner
•
Partially depress the right control knob and turn to
the main burner position marked . The main
burner should now light at its low position.
•
The left-hand knob is for burner flame adjustment. Turning it anticlockwise should
gradually increase the flame height and heat output. Turning clockwise reduces the
flame height and heat output.
