6.3 Fitting the battery.

Fit the battery to the ignition block located to the
bottom right of the fire (See figure 7). The locations
for the +ve and -ve terminals are marked on the
battery holder.

6.4 Ignition.

Before attempting to install, it is worth checking that
the electronic spark ignition system operates
satisfactorily. To initiate the spark, slide the control
knob down as far as it will go and retain in this
position. Sparks should be generated between the
electrode and thermocouple tip on the pilot unit. If
there are no sparks or incorrect tracking, check the
spark gap between the electrode wire and
thermocouple tip (See figure 8).
If the spark gap is correct, check the ignition wiring.

6.5 Fireplace flue pull.

Close all doors and windows in the room in which the
appliance is to be installed. After confirming with a match
that smoke is drawn into the flue, light a 13 gram smoke
pellet and check that there is a definite flow through the
flue. Verify outside that the smoke exits from one
terminal only and that the termination is suitable.
Observe, where possible, upstairs rooms and loft spaces
for signs of escaping smoke indicating a defective flue. If
there is not a definite flow warm the flue for a few
minutes and repeat the smoke pellet test. If there is still
no definite flow the flue may need remedial work – Do
not fit the appliance until there is a definite flow
through the flue.
