Important: When the bottom cover is used instead of a fret,
a space is required in front of the window to allow the window
to move and relieve during a hard start. It is therefore very
important to ensure that an area of 3/4 inch (19 mm) in front
of the window is kept clear at all times.
Hook the upper fl ange of the bottom
cover onto the window bolts.

Operating Your Fire
For your safety, this appliance is fi tted with a fl ame
supervision device which will shut-off the gas supply
if, for any reason, the pilot fl ame goes out. This device
incorporates a fi xed probe, which senses the heat
from the pilot fl ame. If the probe is cool, the device will
prevent any gas fl ow unless the burner control knob is
kept pushed in at the PILOT position. See full lighting
instructions on page 25 of this manual.

During startup, condensation, which is normal, forms
on the inside of the glass and causes dust, lint etc. to
cling to the glass surface. Initially paint, while curing,
may deposit a slight fi lm on the glass. We therefore
recommend that, during the fi rst few weeks of use,
the glass be cleaned two or three times with non-
abrasive common household cleaners and warm
water. Ammonia based cleaners should not be used.
Subsequently, the glass should be cleaned two or three
times a season depending on the circumstances.
Do not clean the glass while it is hot.
Always securely replace the window before lighting.
If broken, the glass pane may only be replaced
as a complete window unit as supplied by the
manufacturer.
It is necessary to remove the cast iron fret and
brackets or the bottom cover before removing the
window—see previous installation sections.
The window
can be removed
for cleaning by
rotating the two
fastening studs at
the bottom corners
90 degrees to
release, and
swinging the
bottom of the
window unit
outwards to
unhook the top edge.
After refi tting the window, apply light hand pressure against
the window frame sides to bed-in the window seal.
