6.2.1
OPERATING THE FIRE (MANUAL CONTROL MODELS)
The controls are located behind the ashpan cover which is situated behind the
Ashpan / Fender. The controls, comprise a control valve to adjust the gas flow and
a push button piezo igniter. To light the fire proceed as follows:-
6.2.1.1
Depress the control knob and turn anti-clockwise to the position
marked pilot. Hold in the control knob for a few seconds to allow
the gas to reach the pilot.
6.2.1.2
Continue to hold-in the control knob and press the igniter button. If
the pilot does not light, continue to press the igniter button until
ignition occurs. The pilot flame can be seen by looking at the left
hand side front bottom corner of the glass panel. When the pilot
has lit, continue to hold the control knob in for 5-10 seconds to allow
the thermocouple to heat up, if the pilot goes out when the control
knob is released, repeat the lighting sequence.
In the unlikely event of a failure of the igniter, the fire can be lit as follows :-
Remove the fret / ashpan cover, depress the control knob and turn anti-clockwise
to the position marked pilot. Hold in the control knob for a few seconds to allow
the gas to reach the pilot. Insert the tip of a lit taper in behind the front ceramic
rail on the left hand side. This will light the pilot flame. When the pilot has lit,
continue to hold the control knob in for 5-10 seconds to allow the thermocouple to
heat up, if the pilot goes out when the control knob is released, repeat the lighting
sequence.
6.2.1.3
After lighting, turn the control knob in the anti-clockwise direction to
the high position and the main burner will light. For most efficient
performance leave the fire on high when lighting from cold for
ten minutes.
6.2.1.4
The gas control can be turned clockwise from the maximum position
to give the desired heat output.
WARNING
If the fire goes out for any reason or is turned off and it is necessary to
re-light the fire it is important to allow the fire to cool for 3 minutes before
attempting to re-light it.
