8. PREPARING APPLIANCE FOR INSTALLATION

IMPORTANT
Before continuing with the installation of this gas fire the aeration setting on
the burner must be checked. The aeration is factory set but may require
adjustment (See section 17.1).

8.1 Appliance preparation.

1. Remove any transit tape and packing
and inspect for any evidence of
mishandling which might affect the
performance. Each unit is flame tested
before it leaves the factory and as a
result there may be slight discolouration
around the burner ports.
2. Detach the burner unit from the
convector box by removing two screws
(See figure 10). Lift the burner unit clear.
3. It is important that the grommet
Figure 10. Burner attachment points
supplied in the loose parts pack is
fitted to the hole in the rear of the convector box.

8.2 Fitting the foam seal.

There is a length of self adhesive
foam seal supplied with the fire.
This will need to be fitted to the
outer rear edges of the side and top
flanges of the convector box. Cut
the foam seal to the required length.
Be careful not to stretch the seal
when measuring. Remove the
protective backing from the foam
seal and fit this to the rear of the
convector box flange (See figure
11).
