Three Safety Measures For The Gas Fire - Kalfire G Series Installation Instructions Manual

WARNING Should the floor in front of the fireplace
consist of combustible material and the distance from
the underside of the combustion chamber to the floor be
smaller than 10 cm, a heat-resistant fireguard floor plate
larger than 30 cm or a stone should be placed.
Danger of combustion
FIRE HAZARD! Do not touch the appliance! The gas fire
is hot when switched on or just switched off. Ensure extra
safety precautions and safety measures if less able-bodied
persons, elderly people and/or children have access to the
fireplace. Only the remote control and the technical unit
can be used without fear of danger due to combustion.
Danger caused by fumes or gas leaks
DANGER OF EXPLOSION! Fumes and/or gas leaks
can cause life-threatening situations. Fumes can be the
cause of carbon monoxide poisoning and gas leaks are an
explosion risk.
If you notice fumes or gas, take the following precautions:
1. Switch off the gas fire.
2. Close the main gas valve.
3. Open windows and doors.
4. Advise an approved installer of the issue.
DANGER OF EXPLOSION! Should damage occur, close the
gas valve. Do not use the gas fire if a glass panel is cracked,
is not in place or incorrectly mounted.
The gas fire needs a permanent power supply. Interrupting the
power supply can impact safety precautions.
The risk of discolouration
CAREFUL! After the convection system of the fireplace has
been heated, air particles, cigarette smoke, candles and oil
lamps can cause discolouration of walls and ceilings. Ensure
sufficient ventilation in the room in which the gas fire is
installed.

2.6 Three safety measures for the gas fire

1. The flame is detected due to electronic ionisation
measurement
Should the gas fire be unable to detect a flame during
ignition, the gas supply will be interrupted for one minute.
A new ignition attempt will follow automatically. To interrupt
automatic ignition attempts: Press the
switch off the fireplace directly and depress this button for
approximately 10 seconds.
2. 24 hour security
The appliance will stay in a blocked position if no flame is
detected after three automatic ignition attempts (error
code 08A). The block will take effect after one ignition
attempt with gas type G30. This block can twice be
unlocked manually with the remote control. If no flame
is detected after two manual releases, the appliance will
remain blocked for 24 hours (a 'lock-out', code 08F). In that
case, you may not use the gas fire for 24 hours.
3. Overpressure protection
The gas fire is equipped with overpressure protection to
minimise risk. Should explosive ignition occur, the glass
panel on the front topside will open to reduce the pressure.
