ABOUT YOUR NEW FLAVEL RICHMOND PLUS GAS FIRE
The Flavel Richmond Plus coal effect gas fire incorporates a unique and highly
developed fuel bed which gives the realism of a loose coal layout combined with
realistic flames and glow. The use of durable ceramic material in the construction
of the fuelbed components ensures long and trouble free operation.
When first using the new fire a slight smell may be noticed. This is due to starch
used in the manufacture of the soft ceramic coals, it is non-toxic and will soon
disappear.
Please take the time to fully read these instructions as you will then be able to
obtain the most effective and safe operation of your fire.
