Explain to the customer that the appliance has a flame failure & spillage
monitoring system. Point out the explanation of this system shown in the owner’s guide
under “Operating the fire”.
Advise that if the fire goes out for any reason, wait at least three minutes before relighting.

switched off and a specialist should be consulted.
9.6
Advise the customer that they should read the Owner’s guide before operating the

Stress that no extra coals must be added over and above those supplied with the
appliance and that any replacements must only be the authorised spares. Warn that
ignoring this advice could cause incomplete clearance of the products of combustion with
consequent health hazards.
9.8
Advise the customer that the appliance will operate to its maximum potential if the
flue is primed during the first 20 – 30 minutes of use. To do this, simply slide the control
to its highest setting. This will also burn off any carbon deposits that may have formed
during previous use.
If using the appliance for long periods it is beneficial to change between settings. This will
also help to remove any carbon deposits that may form during use.
This is explained in the Owner’s Guide under the section ‘Operating the Fire’. Point this
out to the customer before leaving.
9.9
Recommend that the appliance should be serviced and the chimney inspected by a
competent person (In the UK a CORGI registered person) at least annually.
If the appliance is in premises in the United Kingdom occupied by a tenant, point out that
by law a landlord must have any gas appliance, flue and pipework which is situated in a
tenant’s premises checked for safety at least every 12 months.
