FITTING THE DECORATIVE FRAME The appliance is supplied with a decorative frame. The frame attaches to the firebox using either four magnetic pieces, or as a three piece clip-on assembly. If a three piece clip on frame is to be fitted, and the firebox is to be retained by the cable method, this is the most convenient stage at which to do so.
10.0 GAS S S UPPLY R R OUTING ( ( continued) The gas pipe must be suitably protected where it passes through fireplace openings. Any sleeving should be sealed to the pipe at its ends. This appliance is fitted with an inlet restictor elbow. The open end of the supply pipe should be sealed temporarily during the installation of the firebox to prevent the ingress of dirt and dust.
11.3 GAS CONNECTION Purge the gas supply thoroughly to remove air and dirt/debris BEFORE connection. Now disconnect the inlet restrictor elbow from the inlet pipe. Connect the previously installed gas supply to inlet restrictor elbow, and re-fit the restrictor elbow to the inlet pipe of the appli- ance.
12.0 FUEL BED LAYOUT ( ( continued) 5. Now take another four coals and place behind the second row of coals, in order to complete the third row. The coals may be orien- tated as desired to achieve a realistic effect. Keep the spacing between the coals even and uniform.
12.1 FUEL BED LAYOUT ( ( continued) 4. Now take another two pebbles and place behind the second row of coals, next to each other in the centre of the fuel bed. The peb- bles may be orientated as desired to achieve a realistic effect. Keep the spacing between the pebbles even and uniform.
