Provide a suitable guard that complies with BS 6539 or 6778 for the protection of

protection of pet animals. (Although this fire conforms to all the applicable standards, it
is a heating appliance and certain parts of its surface will become hot.)
Note: The guard supplied with the fire acts as a fireguard conforming to BS1945:1971
and satisfies the Heating Appliance (Fireguard) (Safety) Regulations 1991.
