20.4 Checks
A periodic check of the pilot and burner
fl
ames should be made. Check after the
fi
re has been on for at
least 30 minutes. The pilot
fl
ame must cover the tip of the thermocouple probe. The main burner
fl
ame
pattern will vary from appliance to appliance depending on the type of installation and climatic conditions.
The appliance area must always be kept clear and free from combustible materials, gasoline and other
fl
ammable vapors and liquids.
Inspect the vent terminal outdoors regularly to make sure that dirt, snow, insects, leaves and trees or
other object do not obstruct it.
Examine the whole vent system regularly using a quali
fi
ed agency. We recommend an annual inspection.
20.5 General Servicing
If your appliance requires any servicing, contact your supplier quoting the model number. It will be helpful if
the appliance’s serial number can also be quoted. The serial number is on the rating plate, which is located
under the
fi
rebox, and is accessible by opening the bottom access panel of the front.
The repair parts are shown in the separate repair parts lea
fl
et. Please always quote the part number and
description when requesting a spare part.
20.6 Vent Safety Switch
This appliance is equipped with a vent safety switch which, when activated, will turn off the burner and pilot if
the vent is blocked, disconnected, or if there is excessive down draught.
If the safety switch is activated, wait for it to cool off before trying to light the appliance again. The safety
switch will cool off and reset itself automatically after 25 to 30 minutes.
In the event that the safety switch is activated again, contact a quali
fi
ed service technician for
inspection.
Should the safety switch require replacement, only use parts supplied by Miles Industries.
