•
Always use a fireguard complying with BS6539 or BS6778 for the protection of young
children, the elderly or infirm.
•
Wait three minutes before attempting to relight if the fire is switched off or the flames
are extinguished for any reason.
DO
•
Get advice about the suitability of any wall covering near your fire. Soft wall coverings
(e.g. embossed vinyl, etc.) which have a raised pattern are easily affected by heat. They
may, therefore, scorch or become discoloured when close to a heating appliance.
Please bear this in mind whenever you are considering redecorating.
•
Provide a minimum clearance of 100mm from the outside of the fire case to any corner
wall or other combustible surface that projects beyond the front of the appliance.
Please bear this in mind if ever you are altering the room (See figure 1)
DON’T
•
Hang clothing, towels or any other fabrics over the fire.
•
Throw paper or other materials onto your fire.
•
Use the fire with damaged base ceramics.
•
Put more loose coals / pebbles on the fire than the number given in this guide or use
any coals / pebbles other than those authorised for this fire. Incorrect combustion could
result.
•
Attempt to clean or service the fire until it has been switched off and allowed to cool.
