Final Review.
Hand the literature pack with this guide to the customer.
Visually inspect the appliance. Clean off any marks incurred during installation.
Advise the customer how to operate the appliance. Point out that lighting instruction details are on the metal plate
attached to the burner at the bottom of the appliance.
Explain to the customer that the appliance has a flame failure & spillage monitoring system. Point out the explanation of
this system shown in the owner guide under "Operating your stove". Advise that if the stove goes out for any reason, wait
at least ten minutes before relighting. Stress that if the monitoring system repeatedly shuts off the stove, the appliance
should be switched off and a specialist should be consulted.
Advise the customer that they should read their owner guide before operating the stove and always follow the advice in
the section headed "Cleaning your stove".
Stress that no extra ceramic fuel effect pieces 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.
Advise the customer that the appliance will operate to its maximum potential if the flue is primed during the first 20 – 30
minutes of use. To do this, simply turn the control knob to its highest setting. This will also burn off any carbon deposits
that may have formed during previous use.
If using the appliance for long periods it is beneficial to change between settings. This will also help to remove any carbon
deposits that may form during use.
Recommend that the appliance should be serviced by a competent 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.
Explain to the customer that when operating the stove 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 approximately twelve hours use.

Inform the customer that the Serial number for the appliance is located on the metal plate attached to the burner
at the bottom of the appliance underneath the burner module.
Servicing
Always turn off the gas supply and allow to cool completely before commencing any servicing.
This product uses fuel effect pieces 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 stove before and after working on the stove. 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. RCF waste is classed as a stable, non-reactive hazardous waste and may be disposed at
a landfill licensed to accept such 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. This appliance does not contain any component manufactured from
asbestos or asbestos related products.
Check that the thermal switch is correctly located in the diverter box (See
Check that the appliance is clean and that no matter is blocking the burner or pilot which may cause imperfect flames or
prevent a correct electrode spark.
After servicing, make sure that the ceramic fuel effect pieces are replaced correctly as described in the installer and owner
guide supplied with the ceramic fuel effect. The ceramic fuel effect guide may have been placed inside or attached to this
guide.
Always test for gas soundness and spillage after servicing the appliance.
