Operation of the fire – continued
Observe if it is alight by looking through the slots to the left hand end of the front
coals.
If the pilot does not light immediately, repeat the above procedure, keeping the knob
depressed for several seconds in order to purge any air from the system.
If after ten seconds, ignition has not occurred, turn the control knob back to the OFF
position and repeat the ignition procedure after 30 seconds.
Once the pilot is lit, keep the control knob depressed for ten seconds to allow the
flame supervision device to establish.
When the control knob is released, the pilot should remain lit. If the pilot fails to
remain lit, repeat the ignition procedure, this time keeping the control knob depressed
for a longer period of time.
Lighting the Main Burner
Once the pilot light is established, the main burner can be lit by turning the pilot
burner control knob anti-clockwise to position 3 (refer to figure 3), and by then turning
the main burner control knob to the ‘high’ position (5).
Controlling the heat setting.
In order to change from one setting to another turn the main burner control knob to
the required position. Alternatively, if a setting between LOW (4) and HIGH (5) is
required, then the control knob may be turned to this position.
Note: We recommend you use the appliance at a low setting for the first few hours of
use to reduce the thermal cracking of the surface of the burner.
Surface cracking of the burner is normal and is no cause for concern. Whist binding
materials are being burnt out of the burner there may be a slight odour.
To Turn the Fire back to Pilot Setting
Turn the main burner control knob fully clockwise. Alternatively turn the pilot burner
control knob clockwise to the ignition position (2). Refer to figure 3.
To Turn the Fire off
Rotate the pilot/burner control knob clockwise to position 1, as shown in figure 3.
Using the Remote Control Handset
When the pilot burner control knob is in position 3, the remote control handset may be
used to vary the flame effect between ‘High’ and ‘Low’, or switch the fire back to pilot
setting.
The handset operates on ultrasonic principles, and as such it is not necessary to point
the handset directly at the fire.
Please note: We do not recommend pointing the remote control handset at any
domestic animal or operating the device within one meter of the animal’s ear.
Research has shown that a domestic cat or dog will not suffer any pain or hearing
damage but the ultrasonic transmission signal may disrupt its normal behaviour.
