Slightly depress the knob and turn it to "LOW". Release the knob. Within a few
!
seconds the main burner should light at its low setting.
Slightly depress the knob and gradually turn it towards "HIGH" until the burner is
!
at your desired setting. The burner flames will gradually increase until the knob is at the
"HIGH" position.

Lighting with a taper.

If the spark ignition fails, the fire can be lit manually by inserting a lighted taper
!
through the ceramic fuel effect at the front left side (as shown in figure 2) and
depressing the control knob at the
"PILOT/IGN" position. Ensure that the fan
is on.
Note: If the fire goes out while setting the
control, repeat the full lighting procedure.
If the fire repeatedly goes out, have the fire
serviced.

How to turn your fire off.

To turn off the main burner but
!
leave the pilot alight slightly depress the
control knob and turn to "PILOT/IGN".
Leave the fan switched on.
To turn the fire fully off slightly depress the control knob and turn to "OFF". Press
!
the "OFF" switch to turn the fan off. If the fire is not likely to be used again for a long
time we suggest that the mains isolating switch for the fire is switched off.
Wait at least three minutes after turning the fire off before relighting.

While cooling, the ceramic fuel effect pieces may make some crackling noises. This
!
is quite normal.

The flame sensing and flue blockage safety system.

For your safety, this appliance is fitted with a flue blockage safety device which
!
will shut down the appliance in the event of abnormal flue conditions.
This device will also shut down the appliance if the pilot flame goes out due to lack
!
of oxygen or for any other reason.
The system includes a probe that senses the heat from the pilot flame. If this probe
!
is cool, the system will prevent any gas flow unless the control knob is kept depressed
at the "PILOT/IGN" position.
The system also includes an atmospheric pressure detector. This will shut off the
!
gas supply if the fan is not working.
If there is a blockage preventing the flow of exhaust fumes out of the flue, the fan
!
will switch to a high boost speed to attempt to clear the blockage. If the boost speed
