INSTALLER GUIDE
flue is primed during the first 20 – 30 minutes of use. To do this, simply turn the control
to its highest setting. This will also burn off any carbon deposits that may have formed
during previous use.
If using the appliance for long periods it is beneficial to change between settings. This
will also help to remove any carbon deposits that may form during use.
8. Recommend that the appliance should be serviced and the chimney inspected by a
competent person (In the UK a CORGI registered person) at least annually.
If the appliance is in premises in the United Kingdom occupied by a tenant, point out
that by law a landlord must have any gas appliance, flue and pipework which is situated
in a tenant's premises checked for safety at least every 12 months.
9. Advise the customer that the castings, fascia, firebox and ceramic pieces can be
cleaned as described in the owner guide and that the ceramic fuel effect pieces must be
replace as described in the installer and owner guide supplied with the ceramic fuel
effect.
Stress that no extra ceramic fuel effect pieces must be added over and above those
supplied with the appliance and that any replacements must only be the authorised
spares. Warn that ignoring this advice could cause incomplete clearance of the
products of combustion with consequent health hazards.
10. Inform the customer that the Serial number for the appliance is located on the
metal plate, located behind the firefront and underneath the burner.
11. The ceramic fuel effect installer and owner guide should be placed inside or attached
to this guide. Hand the literature pack with this guide to the customer.
16. SERVICING & PARTS REPLACEMENT
Always turn off the gas supply before commencing any servicing (The appliance
inlet "T" connector incorporates an isolating valve).
It is recommended that, at least once a year, the appliance is disconnected and the
fireplace opening checked and cleared of any debris.
This product uses fuel effect pieces and a burner compartment rear wall
containing Refractory Ceramic Fibres (RCF), which are man-made vitreous
silicate fibres. Excessive exposure to these materials may cause irritation to eyes,
skin and respiratory tract. Consequently, it is important to take care when
handling these articles to ensure that the release of dust is kept to a minimum. To
ensure that the release of fibres from these RCF articles is kept to a minimum,
during installation and servicing we recommend that you use a HEPA filtered
vacuum to remove any dust and soot accumulated in and around the fire before
and after working on the fire. When replacing these articles we recommend that
the replaced items are not broken up, but are sealed within a heavy duty polythene
bag, clearly labelled as RCF waste. This is not classified as "hazardous waste" and
may be disposed of at a tipping site licensed for the disposal of industrial waste.
