ABOUT

YOUR

NEW

DAKOTA

FIRE.

The

Kinder

Dakota

decorative

fuel

effect

vented

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

fuelbed

components

ensures

long

and

trouble

free

operation.

When

first

using

the

new

fire

a

slight

smell

may

be

noticed.

This

is due

to

small

deposits

of

oil

on

the

firebox,

but

will

soon

disappear.

Any

odour

can

be

quickly

reduced

by

operating

the

fire

on

full

for

a

few

hours

to

allow

the

heat

to

fully

penetrate

all

components.

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.
