Table of Contents

When operating your fire for the first time, some vapours may be given off which may

cause a slight odour and could possibly set off any smoke alarms in the immediate

vicinity. These vapours are quite normal with new appliances. They are totally harmless

and will disappear after a few hours use.

The Oxysafe flame sensing and flue blockage safety system.

For your safety, this appliance is fitted with a flue blockage safety device that will shut

down the appliance in the event of abnormal flue conditions. This device is NOT a

substitute for an independently mounted Carbon Monoxide detector.

The device will also automatically shut off the gas supply to the fire if the pilot flame

goes out due to lack of oxygen or for any other reason.

If this device starts to repeatedly shut off the gas, get expert advice.

This device incorporates a probe that senses that the heat from the pilot flame is

correct. If this probe is cool, the device will prevent any gas flow unless the control

knob is held down at the ignition position.

If, for any reason, the flames go out when the fire is hot or if the fire is turned off

when hot, always wait at least three minutes before attempting to relight.

To light the fire.

The control is shown in Figure 3.

Depress the control knob and turn partially to the 1/IGN position until you feel some

resistance.

Keep the knob depressed at this position for a few

seconds to allow gas to flow to the burner.

While keeping the knob depressed, SLOWLY turn

to the 1/IGN position. While turning, a spark should

light the pilot.

Keep the knob depressed at the 1/IGN position for

a further 10 seconds then release it. The centre

section of the ceramic fuel effect will be alight at this

position.

Depress the control knob slightly and turn it to your

desired burner setting.

The control knob should be depressed slightly

before turning whenever you are changing the burner setting.
