2. To Light The Pilot
Depress the control knob and turn anticlockwise towards the PILOT/IGN position. A spark should be generated at the pilot
while turning. The spark should ignite the pilot. The pilot flame can be seen below the dress coal at the front left side.
Keep the button at the PILOT/IGN position for a further ten seconds. This will prevent the flame sensing device from
shutting off the gas while its probe warms up.
If the pilot does not ignite instantly, repeat procedure until ignition is achieved.
NOTE: If after 10 seconds pilot ignition has not occurred, turn the control knob back to the OFF position, wait for 3 minutes
and then repeat the ignition procedure.
3. Lighting The Main Burner
Once the pilot light is established, the main burner can be lit by depressing and turning the control knob anticlockwise to the
HIGH position.
4. Controlling the Heat Setting
In order to change from one setting to another depress the control knob slightly and turn the knob to the required position.
Alternatively, if a setting between LOW and HIGH is required the control may be set in this position.
Note: The appliance will operate to its maximum potential if the flue is primed during the first 20-30 minutes of operation. To
do this, simply operate the appliance at its HIGH setting. This will also burn off any carbon deposits that may have formed
during previous operations. If operating the appliance for long periods it is beneficial to change between settings. This will
help to remove any carbon deposits that may form during operation.
5. To Turn the fire back to Pilot Setting
Depress the control knob and turn clockwise until the pilot setting is reached.
6. To Turn the Appliance Off
Ensure that the control knob is in the pilot position. Depress the control knob and turn clockwise to the OFF position.

OPERATION OF THE FIRE

1. This fire is controlled by a 4 position gas tap mounted on the front leg of the
appliance (see Fig 1). In addition to the OFF position there is a pilot light and 2
heat control settings.
The flame sensing device & flue blockage safety system.
For your safety, this appliance is fitted with a flue blockage safety device that will shut
down the appliance in the event of abnormal flue conditions. This device is NOT a
substitute for an independently mounted Carbon Monoxide detector.
The device will automatically shut off the gas supply to the fire if the pilot flame goes
out due to lack of oxygen or for any other reason.
If the device starts to shut off the gas frequently, get expert advice.
The system incorporates a probe that senses that the heat from the pilot flame is
correct. If this probe is cool, the device will prevent any gas flow unless the control
knob is kept depressed at the PILOT/IGN position.
If for any reason, the flames go out when the fire is hot or if the fire is turned off when
hot, always wait at least five minutes before attempting to relight.
