Pag.3 General The Hi- fire free-standing gas stove offers you the attractive sight of a living fire, combined with the comfort and convenience of remote control operation. The complete appliance is supplied with the surround and/or accessories of your choice. Please refer to the installation instructions for the surround and/or accessories in question, which are packaged separately from the Hi- fire stove.

Pag.5 • Wait or press button (B-4) to switch to automatic mode • A sensor in the transmitter measures the room temperature. The controler compares the room temperature with the set temperature and sends a signal to the receiver to turn the gas valve motor, which adjusts the flame height accordingly.
Pag.6 The temperature is controlled by activating the motor for a specific length of time to adjust the appropriate flame height. This time is calculated by the transmitter and depends on variables such as room size, heater capacity, battery power, etc. Therefore, a few cycles are necessary before an optimum is achieved. If a low flame is sufficient to provide enough warmth to the room, then the appliance will cycle between low fire and off.
Pag.7 Connection to the gas pipe Place the basic unit in its intended position and then mount the surround. Adjust the basis unit to ensure that the mounting holes in the surround and the unit are aligned (do not attach yet). Having done this, you can decide on the position of the gas pipe at the same time.
Pag.8 Concentric duct system The concentric duct system consists of a inner duct, 100 mm in diameter, and a outer duct, 150 mm in diameter. These ducts are fitted concentrically; discharge of combustion gas is through the inner duct and supply of com- bustion air to the appliance is between the inner and outer ducts.
Pag.9 Roof duct without bends (see illustration 6, page 15). A direct course without bends is possible to a maximum length of X=12 metres, measured from the connection to the appliance. The minimum length is 3 metres. The outlet can be positioned anywhere in the roof surface, whether flat or sloping;...
Pag.10 Fitting roofduct • The outlet can be anywhere in the roof surface (outlet and inlet in identical pressure area) and must meet the regulations currently in force. • A roof plate for flat roofs or a lead roof flashing for sloping tiled roofs can be used to make a watertight duct.
Pag.11 Putting the ceramic log set in place The “Oak Set” has already been put in position in new appliances and secured with a string. This string does not have to be removed, it will burn away of its own accord. Only if maintenance work has to be done to the burner, pilot light or thermocouple, the window should be re- moved by dismantling the six glazing tees.

Pag.17 Important tips for heating with gas-fired or wood-fired stoves and fireplaces. Prevent discolouration of walls and ceilings! There are always dust particles in the air in every living space, even if it is regularly vacuumed! These particles are clearly vis ible in rays of sunlight and they will not bother you as long as the concentration of particles in the air remains low.

This is also the date of inception of the guarantee. The guarantee lapses if changes have been made to the appliance without the advance knowledge and written permission of Helex / Thermocet, and when an appliance has been shipped without sound packaging and transport protection.
