The Kinder Oasis fuel effect gas fire incorporates a unique and highly developed fuel bed which
gives the realism of a loose coal layout combined with realistic flames and glow. The use of
durable hard ceramic material in the construction of the fuel bed components ensures long and
trouble free operation.

The fire incorporates a flame control which allows you to adjust the flame appearance to give the

desired combination of flames and glow.

When first using the new fire a slight smell may be noticed. This is due to starch used in the

manufacture of the soft ceramic coals, it is non-toxic and will soon disappear.

Please take the time to fully read these instructions as you will then be able to obtain the most
effective and safe operation of your fire. See below for a guide to the main parts and controls of
your fire.
