Page 4 SAFETY OF THE UNIT The unit is fully safeguarded by means of thermo-electric pilot light protection to prevent unforeseen dis- charge of gas from the main burner. Safety Do not place ceramic burner decoration material or logs against the pilot burner. Ensure the pilot light is able to burn freely over the main burner at all times.
REMOTE CONTROL Page 5 General The unit is operated using a radio-controlled remote control. This consists of a manual transmitter and a re- ceiver. The receiver is connected to the gas control block. The receiver and the gas control block are located in the operating box. If there is no change in flame height for a 6-houre period the transmission / communication turn down appli- cation wil turn down the pilot flame.
Page 6 Controls (Remote Control) Igniting the fire Open the gas shut-off cock that has been installed in the gas pipe to the unit. Press the “O I” switch, on the gas control block, in the “I” position. Turn the operating button on the gas control block, into the ON position. Simultaneously press OFF (large) on the manual transmitter.
Page 7 Setting the flame size / Extinguishing the fire After the burner is ignited, the flame size will automatically move into the maximum setting. Press (small) to reduce the flame size and turn off the burner. (Extinguishing the fire: “STAND BY”). (Pressing the key for a short time gradually reduces the flame). Press (large) to increase the flame.
Page 8 MANUAL OPERATION (in case of emergency, only if remote control is not working) The unit may be operated by hand if there is a defect in the remote control. To do so, the ignite (piezo)cable of the receiver must first be removed and carefully slid into the piezo connector on the gas control block. Small metal circle for manual operation of the ignition...
Page 9 INITIAL START-UP The unit has a layer of heat-resistant varnish that resists very high temperatures. An unpleasant smell may develop in the first hours after starting the unit due to burning in of the varnish; however, this is not dangerous. To accelerate this process, allow the unit to burn at the highest setting for several hours and ventilate the area well.
Page 10 6. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS Important The installation may only be performed by an authorised person General instructions The gas fireplace must be installed, connected and inspected as a closed unit by a qualified fitter, according to national, regional, and local standards and regulations. The flue tube system and the outlets in the outer wall or roof face must also meet the requirements outlined in the applicable standards and regulations.
7. CONCENTRIC FLUE SYSTEM CC Page 11 The concentric flue system consists of a 100mm or 130mm Ø inner flue concentric with a 150 mm or 200 mm Ø outer flue. These flues have been set up concentrically; the combustion gases are exhausted through the internal flue while the fresh combustion air is supplied between the internal and external flues.

7.3 Installation instructions regarding existing flues. Page 13 Instructions The flue gas exhaust system falls within category C91 and must be built in accordance with national rules and regulations and the instructions of the manufacturer, as specified in the documentation and installation instructions. This means, among other things, that the chimney pass-through must not be smaller than 150 mm round / square, but no larger than 200 mm, and not ventilated by grilles etc.
Page 15 Instructions for the Mertik Maxitrol GV60 and the Remote Control: Ensure that the fuel supplied to the unit is clean and free from particles and moisture. Before a gas supply pipe (new or existing) is connected to the main gas pipe at the gas meter and to the gas control block of the unit, clean and dry compressed air should been blown through it.

Page 23 PLACING THE UNIT (first read “General instructions”) Please note: Before placing the unit, we recommend you first read Chapter 7 “Concentric flue system” on page 11. 11.1 Connection to the gas pipes (see page 25 for details) You can determine where the gas pipes will be placed, dependent on the layout. Ensure control equipment is not twisted during installation and there is no excessive tension.

With use of gas category G25 20-25 mBar (I2L, I2ELL) mount the primary aeration bracket under the burner setting for a good fire image. method: Take the Decoration plate and burner out from the unit.
Page 27 PROBLEMS AND POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS Please first check if all guidelines were followed before attempting to solve any problems with the unit. Warning: Solving problems with your unit, whether gas related or electrical, must always be performed by a qualified technician.
