To stop the fire, simply press the power button again and the burner will stop. Disconnect the pressure
gauge, replace the test point sealing screw and test for gas soundness.
Once the fire has been successfully lit and extinguished, you can then put batteries in the remote
control and check that this is functioning correctly (see user instructions including how to set the time
and date on the handset).

CHECK FOR SPILLAGE

Close all doors and windows in the room containing the appliance. Light the stove and set the control
unit to 'HIGH', leave the appliance running for 5 minutes.
Apply a smoke match along the bottom edge of the draught diverter, the smoke match can be inserted
at least 5-10mm. The spillage test will be deemed to satisfactory if the smoke is drawn into the stove.
If in doubt wait a further 10 minutes and then repeat the test.
If still in doubt and the flue restrictor ring is fitted, remove the ring and repeat the spillage test.
If there is a nearby room with an extractor fan then the spillage test must be repeated with the fan
running and take into account any other factors which may adversely affect flue/chimney performance,
e.g. operation of tumble driers or forced-air heating systems in the room housing the appliance or any
adjoining room (with interconnecting doors open). Passive houses may also have an adverse effect. If in
doubt disconnect the appliance permanently from the gas supply, issue the appropriate paperwork and
labels and seek further advice.
NOTIFIABLE WORK – BUILDING CONTROL
As a Gas Safe registered engineer, in England and Wales you must report the installation of heat
producing gas appliances, and the installation of heating and hot water systems connected to the gas
appliance, through the online notification system. By reporting your safe work in this way the Gas Safe
register will ensure that a Building Regulations Compliance certificate will be sent to the homeowner
or builder and they will also advise the relevant Local Authority building control department of the
work on your behalf. This certificate is important and will form part of the warranty agreement.
There is no mandatory requirement to notify gas work in Northern Ireland or Scotland. However, we do
encourage businesses to provide customers with a quality record of work. This can be done by making
voluntary Declarations of Safety, you can do this online in the same way as mandatory notifications and
once the notification has been received Gas Safe Register will provide your customer with a Declaration
of Safety certificate.
