After preparing the fireplace, apply a lighted match,
paper or smoke match to the chimney opening. Observe
the smoke. If there is a definite flow into the opening
continue with the installation. If there is not a definite
flow, preheat the chimney for a few minutes and recheck
If there is still no definite flow, the chimney may need
attention. Do not fit the appliance. Seek expert
advice.

1/IGN position. A spark should track from the electrode
pin to the thermocouple tip. If there is no spark or
incorrect tracking, check the spark gap between the
electrode wire and thermocouple tip (see figure 3). If the
spark gap is correct, check the ignition wiring.
Before attempting to
install, it is worth
checking that the piezo
electric spark ignition
system operates
satisfactorily.
Temporarily, refit the
control knob.

3. 3.8.
Fit the flue spigot to the back of the fire using
four screws provided. The fire is supplied with a spigot
restrictor which is intended for use where the flue
draught is excessive. The restrictor must not be
fitted to a flue with an effective height less than
4m or where a precast flue is used. Where the
restrictor is required, fit it, at this stage, between the flue
spigot and the back of the fire. There may, however, be
certain exceptional circumstances where fitting the
restrictor causes the fire to fail the spillage test (see
section 5.2). In such cases the restrictor will have to be
removed.
3.3.9.
If the fire is fitted to a recessed fireplace, an
extension flue spigot up to a maximum total length of
125mm may be used. The extension must be a tight fit
over the flue spigot and be secured by two self tapping
screws. Note the minimum clearance required as shown
in figure 2.
