SITE R R EQUIREMENTS The fireplace opening should be inspected and repairs made where necessary. Any chair brick or fireback may be left in place. The opening WIDTH and HEIGHT dimensions should be between 300mm and 440mm wide, and 505mm to 570mm high.
SITE R R EQUIREMENTS ( ( continued) Any type of fire surround used with this appliance must be adequately sealed to the wall and floor. A combustible shelf may be fixed to the wall above the fire, providing that it complies with the dimensions given below.
PREFABRICATED F F LUE B B OXES This appliance can be fitted into a number of proprietary flue boxes provided that the minimum dimensions given in the diagram below are complied with. Cons s truc c tional N N ote: The frame of the fire, any back panel or other infill panels, and the flue box must be sealed together so that there is no possibility of leakage between them.
PREPARING T T HE O O PENING Before installing the fire, check the flue for correct operation using a smoke pellet. All of the smoke should be drawn up the flue and exit correctly from the terminal. If problems are found DO NOT fit the fire until corrective action is completed.
CABLE FIXING Drill four holes as shown in the diagram and fit the fibre rawl plugs. If the fireplace does not allow for the exact layout shown, A. 250mm the eyebolts should be fixed to give a similar configuration as B.
FUEL BED LAYOUT Place the brick panel against the rear of the firebox Place the ceramic combustion matrix onto the burner and the ceramic side cheeks onto the matrix. Place the front row of six coals on to the matrix, with the two coals second front each end turned on their sides.
FUEL BED LAYOUT ( ( continued) Coals may be rotated slightly within their positions to give a good visual effect. The fire is designed to operate correctly with the coals supplied when assembled according to the instructions. Never add to the fifteen coals, or change them for a different type. Never throw rubbish or other matter onto the coal bed.
11.1 OPERATING THE APPLIANCE ( ( continued) When the pilot lights after the spark, keep the knob depressed for approx- imately ten seconds. Now release the knob and the pilot should stay alight. If the pilot is extinguished during use, wait three minutes before repeating the ignition procedure.
12.0 FLUE SPILLAGE MONITORING SYSTEM (continued) The aeration hole of the pilot must be carefully cleaned out on each annual service to ensure continued function of the ODS. The spillage monitoring system shall not be adjusted, modified, or put out of operation by the installer. Any spare parts fitted MUST be of a type supplied for the purpose by the appliance manufacturer.
14.0 SERVICING Isolate the fire from the gas supply. Ensure that the fire is fully cold before attempting service. A suggested procedure for servicing is detailed below. 1. Lay out the dust sheet and tools. 2. Carefully remove the ceramic components. 3.
14.3 REMOVING THE BURNER TRAY Remove the two screws retaining the decorative casing and lift away. Remove the ceramics and the data/control plate. Remove the two screws securing the tray legs to the firebox. Pull tray forward slightly and lift away. Refitting is the reverse of above, being sure to engage the tray location lugs on the shelf at the rear of the firebox.
15.0 TROUBLESHOOTING G G UIDE Fire s s parks s b b ut p p ilot d d oes s n n ot l l ig g ht No gas to fire, check isolators are open. Pipework blockage, clean out. Air not fully purged, repurge supply or wait longer.

FIREFRONT This fire is supplied with a particular style of firefront. Use of the firefront will ensure an adequate airflow under the firebed for the correct functioning of this appliance. Compliance with safety standards cannot be guaranteed if another style of front is used. CLEARANCES T T O C C OMBUSTIBLES A combustible shelf may be fixed to the wall above the fire, providing that it complies with the dimensions given below.
FLUE S S PILLAGE M M ONITORING S S YSTEM This fire is fitted with a flue spillage safety device (ODS). If the fire shuts down during use for no apparent reason then several reasons may be suspected. If a door or window has been opened creating a draught, then pilot disturbance could be the problem, and removal of the draught should resolve this.
