SITE REQUIREMENTS (continued) This appliance requires a natural draught flue system which may be one of the following; 225mm x 225mm (9in x 9in) brick or stone. 175mm (7in) minimum diameter lined brick or stone. 175mm (7in) minimum diameter twin wall flue conforming to BS 715. Any existing under grate draught device must be sealed off.
VENTILATION No purpose provided ventilation is normally required for this appliance. The requirements of other appli- ances operating in the same room or space must be taken into consideration when assessing ventilation. If spillage is detected when commissioning the appliance then amongst other problems there may be insuf- ficient natural ventilation for the correct operation of the flue.
UNPACKING THE APPLIANCE Stand the carton right way up, cut the strapping bands and remove the top end cap. Read all the instructions before continuing to unpack or install this appliance. Remove the box containing the fire front, and the bags and boxes containing the ceramic parts. Remove the cardboard packing pieces, and any bags containing other fittings or parts.
PREPARING THE OPENING Before installing the fire, check the flue using a smoke pellet. All of the smoke should travel up the flue and exit correctly from the terminal. If problems are found, DO NOT fit the fire until corrective action is com- pleted.
10.0 GAS SUPPLY ROUTING (continued) The gas pipe must be suitably protected where it passes through fireplace openings. An isolator cock or restrictor elbow must be fitted to the incoming supply to facilitate servicing. Any sleeving should be sealed to the pipe at its ends. The open end of the supply pipe should be sealed temporarily during the installa- tion of the firebox to prevent the ingress of dirt and dust.
GAS CONNECTION 11.2 Refit the burner tray into the firebox, fit the two screws through the locating holes in the tray legs, and tight- Purge the gas supply thoroughly to remove air and dirt/debris BEFORE connection. Now disconnect the inlet restrictor elbow from the inlet pipe.
14.2 SPARK FAILURE The gap between the spark electrode and the pilot should be 3.5 - 4.5mm to produce a good spark. There should be no need to adjust this. If under any circumstances the electric spark fails, the pilot may be lit man- ually by proceeding with the ignition sequence as previously described, and after turning the control knob through the spark position, the knob should be held in and the pilot lit with a taper.
14.5 TESTING FOR SPILLAGE (continued) A . 2 5 m m Fireplace Opening Cross section of smoke match tube down from top of open- B. 25mm in from front of Tube opening. Crimp Match C. Disregard Make a smoke match tube from 10mm outer 50mm diameter tube.
15.1 CLEANING THE CERAMIC FUEL BED Remove the ceramic components. Gently clean in the open air. Be careful not to create dust from the peb- bles. Where necessary replace damaged components with genuine spares. Seal scrap components in plastic bags and dispose of at proper refuse sites as directed. Re-fit the pebbles carefully by referring to the relevant section of these instructions.
16.0 TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE Fire sparks but pilot does not light No gas to fire, check isolators are open. Pipework blockage, clean out. Air not fully purged, repurge supply or wait longer. Spark earthing to metal work, reset gap correctly. Blocked pilot, clean out internally. Pilot lights but then goes out Severe restriction in gas supply, clear obstruction.

FUEL BED LAYOUT (continued) 5. Place the pebble ‘D’ onto the peg ‘D’ on the matrix as shown. When pebble ‘C’ is in position this pebble can only fit onto the peg one way - do not force it on. 6.
FUEL BED LAYOUT (continued) 10. Place the pebbles ‘I’ and ‘J’ onto the four large pebbles on the left hand side of the fuel bed as shown. 11. Place the pebbles ‘K’, ‘L’ and ‘M’ onto the four large pebbles on the left hand side of the fuel bed as shown.
CLEANING Before carrying out any of the following operations, ensure that the fire is OFF and completely cold. Debris that may form on the firebed should be periodically removed by a competent person. Large deposits could indicate deterioration of the flue. This should be repaired by a competent person, and the fire serv- iced before further use.
