Page.4 2. SAFETY DEVICE The unit is fully safeguarded by means of thermo-electric pilot light protection to prevent unforeseen discharge of gas from the main burner. 2.1 Safety Do not place ceramic burner decoration material or logs against the pilot burner. Ensure the pilot light is able to burn freely over the main burner.
REMOTE CONTROL Page.5 General The unit is operated using a radio-controlled remote control. This consists of a manual transmitter and a re- ceiver. The receiver is connected to the gas control block. The receiver and the gas control block are located in the operating box. If there is no change in flame height for a 6-houre period the transmission / communication turn down appli- cation wil turn down the pilot flame.
Page.6 Operation (Remote Control) Igniting the flame Open the gas shut-off cock that has been installed in the gas pipe to the unit. Press the “O I” switch on the gas control block to the “I” position. Turn the operating button on the gas control block into the ON position. Press the OFF (large) switches on the remote control at the same time.
3.8 Setting the flame height / extinguishing the flame Page.7 After the burner is ignited, the flame size will adjust to its maximum height automatically. Press the button (small) on the image of the flame to reduce the height and to switch the burner off. (Extinguishing the flame: “STAND BY”).
Page.8 4.0 MANUAL CONTROL The unit may be operated by hand if there is a defect in the remote control. To do so, the ignite (piezo)cable of the receiver must first be removed and carefully slid into the piezo connector on the gas control block. Small metal circle for Manual ignition Main valve knob...
Page.9 5. INITIAL START-UP The unit has a layer of heat-resistant varnish that resists very high temperatures. An unpleasant smell may de- velop in the first hours after starting the unit due to burning in of the varnish; however, this is not dangerous. To accelerate this process, allow the unit to burn at the highest setting for several hours and ventilate the area well.
Page.10 6. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS Important The installation may only be performed by an authorised person 6.1 General instructions The gas fireplace must be installed, connected and inspected as a closed unit by a qualified fitter, according to national, regional, and local standards and regulations. The flue tube system and the outlets in the outer wall or roof face must also meet the requirements outlined in the applicable standards and regulations.
7. CONCENTRIC FLUE SYSTEM CC Page.11 The concentric flue system consists of a 100mm or 130mm Ø inner flue concentric with a 150 mm or 200 mm Ø outer flue. These flues have been set up concentrically; the combustion gases are exhausted through the internal flue while the fresh combustion air is supplied between the internal and external flues.

7.3 Installation instructions regarding existing flues. Page.13 Instructions The flue gas exhaust system falls within category C91 and must be built in accordance with national rules and regulations and the instructions of the manufacturer, as specified in the documentation and installation instructions. This means, among other things, that the chimney pass-through must not be smaller than 150 mm round / square, but no larger than 200 mm, and not ventilated by grilles etc.
Page.15 Instructions for the Mertik Maxitrol GV60 and the Remote Control: Ensure that the fuel supplied to the unit is clean and free from particles and moisture. Before a gas supply pipe (new or existing) is connected to the main gas pipe at the gas meter and to the gas control block of the unit, clean and dry compressed air should been blown through it.

Page.16 Do not extend the thermocouple supplied to the pilot set Extending the thermocouple beyond its limit will lead to a reduction in voltage. This may, in turn, lead to the magnetic coil not being activated. Prevent leakage of the ignition spark to parts of the installation other than the ignition rod at the pilot. Ensure the ignition cable is not in contact with the shell or other metal parts.

11. PLACING THE UNIT (first read “General instructions”) Page.23 Please note: Before placing the unit, we recommend you first read Chapter 7 “Concentric flue system” on page 11. 11.1 Unit components (see page 34, figures 6 and 7.) Unit Window Set screw Baffle plate Stainless steel front...
Page.24 Now determine the installation and assembly of the CC ducts and accessories. Please refer to Chapter 7 “Concentric flue system” on page 11 and the “Table of concentric pathways” on page 28. Install the Mertik control Box (12) in your chosen installation location. Please note: The distance between the control cabinet and the unit will be determined by the cable lengths from the control cabinet to the pilot burner and the gas block etc.
Page.27 13. PROBLEMS AND POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS Please first check if all guidelines were followed before attempting to solve any problems with the unit. Warning: Solving problems with your unit, whether gas related or electrical, must always be performed by a qualified tech- nician.
