!
Depress the control knob and turn anticlockwise towards the PILOT/IGN position
(See figure 3). A spark should be
generated at the pilot while turning. The
spark should ignite the pilot. The pilot
flame can be seen at the left side of the
fuel effect.
Keep the button at the PILOT/IGN
position for a further ten seconds. This
will prevent the flame sensing device
from shutting off the gas while its probe
warms up as explained previously.
!
If the pilot does not ignite quickly
repeat the procedure.
If after 10 seconds pilot ignition has
not occurred, turn the control knob back to the “Off” position, wait for 3
minutes and then repeat the ignition procedure.
!
When the pilot is alight and stable, partially depress the knob and turn to “LOW”.
The pilot should then light the main burner at its low setting. There may be a delay of
up to four seconds between the pilot lighting and ignition of the gas at the main
burner. This is normal and is due to the time required to fill the main burner
compartment with sufficient gas for ignition.
!
When the main burner is alight at its low setting, partially depress the knob and
gradually turn it anti-clockwise until the burner is at your desired level. The burner
flames will gradually increase until the knob reaches the “HIGH” position.
Note:
i) If the flames go out while setting the control, repeat the full lighting
procedure. If the flames repeatedly go out have the fire serviced.
ii) Please note. When first turned on the flames will appear predominantly blue.
The fuel effect will take time to warm up. Although some glow will be seen after
approximately ten minutes, the full visual effect will only be apparent after a
somewhat longer time.
iii) The appliance will operate to its maximum potential if the flue is primed
during the first 20 – 30 minutes of operation. To do this, simply set the control
knob to its ‘HIGH’ setting. This will also burn off any carbon deposits that may
have formed during previous operations.
iv) If operating the appliance for long periods it is beneficial occasionally to
change the settings. This will also help to remove any carbon deposits that may
form during operation.
Lighting with a taper.
(See figure 4).
In the unlikely event of failure of the ignition spark, the pilot can be lit by a taper or
long spill. Insert the taper or spill into the gap in the fuel effect at the left hand side.
Depress the control knob, turn it to PILOT/IGN
