remove the radiants

Remove the dress guard by pressing down the two hooks at
the top. Tilt the guard forward and lift out.
Lift the radiant upwards to clear the metal retaining tab then
pull out bottom first.
Fit the new radiant by inserting its top under the top lip of
the radiant box then swing the bottom of the radiant over
and behind the retaining tab.The back of the radiant should
rest against the rear support bars and the bottom front edge
should be behind the retaining tab.
Replace the dress guard. Locate the bottom of the dress
guard in the two holes in the apron. Push the guard back so
that the two spring projections at the top of the guard engage
in the slots under the canopy.
Always use the correct type of replacement radiant. Ask for

MAINTENANCE
•
In order to achieve and maintain high levels of
personal safety and performance efficiency it is
essential that the opening at the back of the fire and
the flue are kept clear of any form of obstruction. It is
possible that deposits of mortar or soot could fall and
accumulate causing the flue to be blocked or
restricted and so preventing proper clearance of
dangerous exhaust fumes. In the United Kingdom it
is the law that a landlord must have any gas appliance,
flue and pipework which is situated in a tenant’s
premises checked for safety at least every twelve
months.
We recommend that all gas appliances and their flues,
wherever situated, are checked annually. By a
competent person (in the U.K. a CORGI registered
installer).
General servicing
If you require any attention to your fire, contact your
supplier mentioning the model name and number. It
will also be helpful if the appliance serial number is
quoted. This will be found on a label on the right hand
side of the case near the bottom.
