NOTICE
i
i
The ignition of the fireplaces can be easily delayed in principle. Multiple ignition attempts
may also be necessary. This is not an indicator of a technical fault.
Thermal hazard
WARNING
!
Risk of combustion
• The gas supply is immediately interrupted by actuating an emergency stop button. The
fireplaces are not extinguished immediately due to the different designs of the pipe
lengths. It can take several seconds until the flames are finally extinguished.
• Delays during ignition may result in flash fires and jets of flame due to gas
accumulations. Inform trainees that a safety distance must be maintained with
extinguished igniters.
• With escaping gas and with gas flow systems where the pipe diameter expands, the
sudden expansion may lead to extremely cold temperatures. Severe frostbite damage
may occur upon contact with unprotected skin.
• When working on igniters, burner elements and sensors, and on the fire room paneling
or on the fireplaces themselves, there is a risk of burning due to direct contact or due to
the thermal radiation of very hot surfaces.
• Any system components may be hot even when the system is switched off.
