USER’S INSTRUCTIONS A

This user manual will give you the information
you need to operate the appliance properly and
safely.

Carefully read this user manual prior to using
the appliance.

Keep this user, installation and servicing
manual in a safe place.

As a user you are only entitled to perform
the work described in the user manual.
Any other work requires a Gas Safe
registered installer.
Www.GasSafeRegister.co.uk

In case of questions or doubts, please contact
your installer.

INTRODUCTION

Your appliance is a room-sealed atmospheric
gas-fired heating appliance. A room-sealed
appliance does not extract the combustion air
from the living environment, but from outside.

The appliance is operated by means of a
wireless remote control that works on batteries.
For some appliances, no control hatch is
supplied. In that case, the receiver and gas
control are placed under the appliance.

SAFETY

Carefully read and observe the safety
precautions and instructions in this manual.

DO NOT make any changes to the appliance.

Servicing should be carried out at least
annually, but depending upon site conditions
more frequently.

A cracked or broken glass panel must be
replaced. DO NOT use the appliance until it has
been replaced.

Ensure that combustible objects or materials
such as curtains have a distance from the
appliance and the flue of at least 50 cm.

DO NOT dry clothes, towels etc. on or near the
appliance as this is a fire risk.

Avoid contact with hot parts of the appliance to
prevent burns.

DO NOT leave children, the elderly or infirm
alone with a burning appliance.

Keep the remote control out of reach from
children the elderly or infirm.

OPERATING YOUR APPLIANCE

(FIRST TIME OPERATION)

We recommend that you allow the chimney
breast installation to completely dry for at least
6 weeks before using your appliance for the first
time to prevent cracks in the plaster or stone
work.

In order to be able to use the wireless remote
control, you must set a communication code
between the remote control and the receiver,
prior to operating your appliance. This should
have been done by your installer but if not or you
have bought a replacement handset or receiver
then please follow the instructions in the
section SETTING THE COMMUNICATION CODE

During the initial use period the flame picture is
affected by the evaporation of volatile
components.

DISCOLORATION OF WALLS AND CEILINGS

As with all high efficiency room heaters,
discolouration of the walls and ceilings can
occur if the room the appliance is installed in
contains contaminants such as; Smoke, burning
candles, oil lamps, etc.
The convection of the hot air from the appliance
can deposit these contaminants on colder walls.

These problems can be (partly) solved by
ventilating the room where the appliance is
installed.

WIRELESS REMOTE CONTROL

The appliance is supplied with a remote control.

When the appliance is lit for the first
time, an unpleasant smell may occur
as volatile components evaporate
from paint, materials, etc. This is
normal in the first few hours of
operation. Place the appliance on the
highest setting, ventilate the room
well and remove pets from the room.

CAUTION

Close the gas isolation valve if the
appliance ignites with a pop sound and
contact the installer.

CAUTION

4

Ignition, controlling the flame height and
switching off are performed by the remote
control that operates a receiver in the control
hatch. For some appliances, no control hatch is
supplied. In that case, the receiver is placed
under the appliance.

The receiver and remote control are battery
powered. The receiver requires 4 × AA type
batteries, the remote control requires a 9V PP3
battery. In normal use, the batteries will have an
average life of one year.

You can also use an optional power supply in
place of the batteries in the receiver. Ask your
installer for information. If you wish to use the
optional power supply you will need a 230V
connection near your appliance.

RECEIVER

The receiver is located in the control hatch (See
Fig. A1) or is placed under the appliance.

TO REPLACE THE RECEIVER BATTERIES

If the receiver’s batteries are low, you will hear
3 short beep sounds when attempting to light
the burner.

The receiver is situated in the optional Control
Hatch on the side of the chimney breast (See
Fig. A1). If your appliance does not have a
control hatch the receiver will be under the fire.
The receiver is fitted with 4 AA batteries.

Pick up the receiver and slide the cover off.
Remove the old batteries and replace all 4
batteries at the same time using new alkaline
AA or equivalent batteries, DO NOT mix old and

new batteries.

When fitting the new batteries, ensure correct
polarity by referring to the polarity diagrams
inside the battery compartment. Replace the
cover and place the receiver back in the location
it came from.

Do not place the antenna (N) too close to the
ignition cable and/or metal parts. Ensure the
antenna is pointing upwards (for the correct
position, see Fig. A1).

Ensure the ignition cable is not running over/
alongside metal parts: this will weaken the
spark.

Do not lay the ignition cable over the receiver:
this could damage the receiver

TO REPLACE THE HANDSET BATTERY

If the handset battery requires replacing turn
the handset over and remove the battery cover.

Pull out the battery and carefully disconnect it
from the lead. The replacement battery must be
a new alkaline PP3 or equivalent battery.

REMOTE CONTROL OPERATION

The appliance’s standard functions such as
ignition, controlling the flame height, standby
(pilot burner) position and switching off are
performed in the MAN
position, the manual
control of the remote
control (see Fig. A2).

In addition, the remote
control can also be
used to set a number of
additional functions:

Temperature display in
degrees Celsius or
Fahrenheit, time,
thermostat function and
timer for thermostat
function.

CAUTION

Before reporting a fault on your fire
ensure the batteries are in good
condition.

CAUTION

Batteries are regarded as “small
chemical waste” and must not be
disposed of in the household rubbish.

Prior to completely closing the chimney breast,
complete the flue system as described in
Section D and ensure all clamps and fixing
brackets are securely fixed.

Connect the appliance to the wall using wall
brackets (B) (see Fig. 1).

The control hatch (optional extra) should be
placed as low as possible. The bottom of the
hatch should not be fitted higher than the top
surface of the appliance burner.

A number of components are placed in the
control hatch, such as data plate, gas control
and receiver.

To fit the control hatch, make an opening in the
chimney breast of 285mm high x 194mm wide.
Refer to figures C1 and C.2

Unscrew bolts (5) to remove the inner frame (1).
Fit the inner frame into the opening in the
chimney breast.

If the chimney breast is built from bricks, the
inner frame can be built in at the same time.

When using other materials, you can glue the
inner frame or fix it with four flush screws.

Mount the gas control to the brackets of the
inner frame (2) and reconnect the pipes to the
gas control avoid kinking the pipes.

When connecting the thermocouple to the gas
control, first screw it in until hand tight then
tighten it a quarter turn using a suitable
spanner.

The pilot burner pipe must be protected against
possible corrosive influences as a result of, for
example, humidity, cement that has fallen down,
dirt that has fallen down from the chimney, etc.

The pilot burner pipe should remain
permanently free from the ground and the walls
of the room in which the appliance is built in.

CONNECT THE GAS SUPPLY

Make sure there is no dirt in the gas inlet pipe
and connections. Connect the gas inlet pipe to
the gas control. Bleed any air from the gas line.

frame using 2 socket cap screws (5).

You can place the outer frame in such a way,
that the door turns to the left or to the right.

Do not plaster on or over the edges of
the construction frame, because:

a) The heat of the appliance could
cause the plaster to crack.
b) It will no longer be possible to
remove/replace the glass panel.

WARNING

WARNING

When using a plaster finish, allow the
chimney breast to dry for at least six
weeks prior to using the appliance in
order to prevent cracks.

DESIGN OF THE FLUE SYSTEM

Depending on the design of the flue system, the
appliance will have to be further adjusted with
the addition of a Restrictor Slide or Air Inlet
Guide.

See Tables 2 and 4 to determine the correct
adjustment and Section E - Adjustment of the
appliance.

The flue system is a concentric pipe system
which can terminate either with a roof terminal
or a wall terminal.

Before constructing the flue system determine
the minimum initial vertical pipe run for your
chosen Terminal version. Secondly, determine
the permissibility of the required flue
installation. Refer to Table 2 for Wall Terminal
and Table 3 for Roof Terminal for all allowable
configurations.

POSITIONING OF THE FLUE SYSTEM

Use heat-resistant insulation material when
passing through combustible material;

When the Wall Terminal

Wall TerminalWall Terminal

Wall Terminal is to be fitted on a
combustible wall, the clearance around the flue
pipe is larger than the wall plate on the wall
terminal. Therefore you must fit a intermediate
non-combustible panel which is large enough to
seal the opening. The wall terminal can then be
sealed to the intermediate panel.

The Roof Terminal

Roof Terminal Roof Terminal

Roof Terminal can be supplied with a
sealing plate for a flat roof or with a universal
tile for a sloping roof.

CONSTRUCTING THE FLUE SYSTEM

The flue system should be constructed from the
spigot of the appliance. If however the flue
needs to be fitted prior to the appliance for
constructional reasons then a telescopic flue
section will be required to connect the
appliance at the time of fitting.

Connect the concentric pipe pieces and bends
as required for your installation.

Only use the concentric flue pipe
system supplied by Brilliant. This
system has been tested in conjunction
with the appliance. Brilliant cannot
guarantee proper and safe operation
of other systems and does not accept
any responsibility or liability for the
use of other systems.

PLACING THE LOG FUEL EFFECT

A fuel effect is supplied with the appliance and
consists of chips and a number of logs.

Fill the vermiculite tray with chips; spread the
chips evenly (See Fig. E9).

Identify the logs A up to H by using Fig. E10. Use
the burn marks on the logs for identification.
Place branches A up to D around the (main)
burner (See Fig. 11).

Place log F on the left against log A so that
thermocouple 2 is free (See Fig. 12).

Place log G against the indicated ridges on the
vermiculite tray (See Fig. 12).

Next position logs E and H (See Fig. 12).

The logs should not completely cover the burner
deck as this will prevent the main burner from
igniting properly. This could result in unsafe
situations, the appliance producing a lot of soot
and a poor flame picture.

Strictly observe the following
instructions to prevent unsafe
situations.
Only ever use the supplied fuel effect
and place it exactly as described

WARNING

Ensure the pilot burner and the
surrounding space remain free (See
Fig. E7).

come into contact with hot parts

Avoid formation of dust on or in the receiver,
ensure it is covered when performing work.

Place the receiver in its intended holder under
the appliance or in the control hatch according
to Fig. F2.

An optional power adapter is available from
Brilliant to replace the need for batteries. Only
an adapter supplied by Brilliant will guarantee a
proper operation of the receiver.

Do not ignite the appliance before the
flue system connections have been
fully installed. First observe the
procedure described in Section G
Commissioning

WARNING

Use alkaline batteries only.
Rechargeable batteries are not
allowed.

WARNING

Batteries are regarded as "small
chemical waste" and therefore cannot
be disposed of in the household waste.

CAUTION

Do not place the ignition cable over
and/or along metal, stone or concrete
parts: this will weaken the spark. It
must be hanging freely.

CAUTION

Keep the ignition cable at least 10 cm
away from the antenna, in order to
avoid damaging the receiver.

CAUTION

COMMISIONING

In order to check whether the appliance is
working properly and safely, you must perform
the following inspections before the appliance is
used.

GAS SOUNDNESS

Check all the connections for gas soundness.

The gas control can be subjected to a maximum
pressure of 50 mbar.

GAS PRESSURE/LINE-PRESSURE

The burner pressure is set at the factory; see
data plate.

Check the line-pressure; See Fig. G1 for the
measuring nipple on the gas control. Contact
the gas company if the is not correct.

IGNITION PILOT AND MAIN BURNER

For igniting the pilot and main burner, see the
User Manual.

Remove the glass panel as described in Section
E

Start the ignition procedure as described in the
User Manual.

If the pilot flame does not ignite, repeat the
ignition procedure until the pilot burner ignites.

If the pilot doesn’t light after repeated attempts
consult the fault finding diagram in Section H.

After igniting the pilot flame, the main burner
will ignite during the ignition procedure after
approx 25 seconds.

Check whether the main burner continues to
burn.

If the main burner does not continue to burn,
repeat the ignition procedure until the main
burner continues to burn.

If the main burner does not remain alight then
consult the malfunction search diagram in
Section H.

Switch off the appliance and replace the glass
panel as described in Section E

Repeat the ignition procedure a few times and
perform the Main Burner checks below.

MAIN BURNER

The main burner(s) flame must cross the full
burner smoothly and without popping and
continue to burn.

COMMISSIONING AND SERVICING G

After installation, or after work has
been performed, you must ignite the
appliance for the first time without the
glass panel. If necessary, bleed the
gas supply to expel any air.

WARNING

When checking whether the main
burner continues to burn, it is possible
that it still switches off after 22
seconds. This may happen because
the appliance is equipped with a
second thermocouple and the glass
window has not been fitted. In this
case you may presume that the main
burner will continue to burn.

INFO

DO NOT adjust the pilot flame lower
by using the settings on the gas
control.

WARNING

Always wait 5 minutes after the pilot
flame has gone out, before you
reignite the appliance.

WARNING

During the ignition process, you are
not allowed to operate control knob B
on the gas control manually.

WARNING

The pilot burner should ignite the
main burner within a couple of
seconds, and without popping.

WARNING

24

After opening the gas valve, the main burner
should burn within a few seconds.

When the gas valve is opened, the motor will
start to run; this is audible.

The flame picture and a good flame transfer can
only be properly judged if the glass panel is
installed.

Use the fault finding diagrams in Section H if
the ignition of the main burner does not comply
with the abovementioned requirements.

FLAME PICTURE

The flame picture can only really be assessed
when the appliance has been burning for
several hours. Volatile components from paint,
materials, etc., which evaporate in the first
hours, will affect the flame picture.

Check whether the flame picture is acceptable.
and consult the fault finding in Section H if it
isn’t acceptable.
