INSTALLER GUIDE
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, front surround, firebox and ceramic pieces can
be cleaned as described in the user's instructions and that the loose ceramic fuel effect
pieces must be replace as described in those instructions.
Stress that no extra coals 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 lower front casting and underneath the burner.
11. Hand the literature pack with this guide to the customer.
17. 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.
Protective clothing is not required when handling these articles, but we recommend
you follow the normal hygiene rules of not smoking, eating or drinking in the work
area and always wash your hands before eating or drinking.
Check that the appliance is clean and that soot or debris is not blocking the gaps
