Flame Supervision & Spillage Monitoring System
The pilot unit incorporates a system that will automatically shut off the gas supply if the
pilot flame goes out or if there is insufficient oxygen due to spillage or lack of
ventilation.
Check that the system operates properly as follows;
• Light the appliance. Set at the "HIGH" position and leave for one minute.
• Turn back to "OFF" to extinguish the pilot. Note the time when the pilot goes out.
Listen for a snap sound at the gas tap. Note the time when the sound is heard. An
electromagnetic valve shutting off the gas supply through the tap causes this sound. The
valve is located in the body of the tap. The valve should operate within 60 seconds of
the pilot going out. If the valve does not operate within this time limit do not allow the
appliance to be used until the fault has been corrected.
This monitoring system must not be adjusted, bypassed or put out of operation.
This monitoring system, or any of its parts, must only be exchanged using Valor
authorised parts.
Final commissioning
• Visually inspect the appliance. Clean off any marks incurred during installation.
• Hand this guide to the customer.
• Stress that no extra coals / Pebbles must be added over and above those supplied

combustion with consequent health hazards.
• Advise the customer how to operate the appliance. Point out that lighting instruction
details are contained within the user's instructions.
• Explain that this appliance is fitted with an atmosphere-sensing device, ODS pilot unit
that will automatically shut off the supply of gas to the fire if, for any reason, the
flames go out. It will also shut off the gas supply if the flue is blocked or if there is not
enough ventilation. If this device does operate or if the fire is turned off accidentally
or intentionally, always wait three minutes before attempting to relight.
• Advise the customer that the fire front and ceramic pieces can be cleaned as described
in the user's instructions and that the ceramic pieces must be replaced as described in
those instructions.
