This appliance is a high efficiency, flueless, flame effect gas fire. It provides radiant and convected warmth both efficiently and safely utilising the latest type catalytic convertor burner
technology.
The appliance incorporates a combustion monitoring system (Oxygen Depletion System). It
must not be adjusted or put out of operation. If replaced then manufacturers original parts
must be used.
The appliance is designed to fit various types of situations as listed in the Installation
Requirements.
This appliance must be installed in accordance with the rules in force and only used in a sufficiently ventilated space. A minimum of 100cm
2
(15.5in2) purpose provided ventilation is
required for this appliance. An openable window or louvre is also required. This appliance is
factory set for operation on the gas type, and at the pressure stated on the appliance data
plate.
The room size should be a minimum of 30m
3
(1059ft3) to allow adequate circulation of air
and ensure the correct operation of the fire. This volume may include adjacent spaces but
these spaces must not be separated by a door. In order to convert from cubic feet (ft
3
) to
cubic metres (m
3
) divide the room volume (in ft3) by 35.3. This appliance is intended as a
secondary source of heat only and should not be used in a room without some form of
background heating present.
The appliance must not be installed in a bedroom, bathroom or any sleeping area. The
appliance does not require a flue system of any type as the catalytic converter cleans the
flue products to provide a complete combustion system, which is intrinsically safe.
The appliance must be installed by a competent person in accordance with Gas Safety
(Installation and Use) Regulations 1998 or rules in force. It is strongly recommended that a
CORGI registered engineer is used for this purpose, as they are the only persons approved
by the HSE under the above regulations.
On initial lightup of a new appliance, the ‘newness’ will burn off within the first few hours of
operation. During this period some smoke may be emitted from outlet grille, this should be
no cause for concern. Accordingly, the room should be well ventilated with all windows
and doors open during this period.
Read all these instructions before commencing installation.

This appliance may be installed with or without a hearth. If a hearth is fitted, the size and design may be as
desired. If the appliance is to be sited near a disused natural draught flue it is recommended that the old flue
should be partially sealed off to prevent draughts, however some ventilation will be required to prevent condensation. The appliance is designed to be wall mounted. It is possible to install the appliance onto certain
types of combustible materials - see section entitled ‘Clearances to combustible materials’.
In the event that the fire is sited near a disused or unserviceable fireplace served by a natural draught flue, any
existing under grate draught device should be sealed off to prevent loss of heat or creation of draughts. The
passageway into the flue should be partially sealed to prevent excessive draughts, however some ventilation
will be required in the old flue to prevent condensation and dampness. Advice should be sought from your
local building control officer.
RROOOOMM SSIIZZIINNGG
The room size should be a minimum of 30m3(e.g. 11’6” x 11’6” x 8’) to allow adequate circulation of air and
ensure the correct operation of the fire. This volume may include adjacent spaces but these spaces must not
be separated by a door. To calculate a room size in cubic metres (m
3
) divide the room volume in cubic feet
(ft
3
) by 35.3.

This Appliance may be installed in any room in a home, however there are exceptions, and the appliance may
not be used in the following rooms;
· Bedrooms - or areas which are mainly used for sleeping.
· Bathrooms - or areas where large amounts of steam are likely to be generated.
Installation in living rooms is common, however other rooms such as kitchens, dining rooms and hallways are
permitted, providing a suitable natural gas supply is available, and rooms sizing and ventilation requirements
are strictly adhered to (see section 4.1).
The appliance is designed to be versatile, and as such will operate correctly when exposed to normal gentle
draughts experienced within the home. It is not recommended, however that the appliance be installed in areas
where it is likely to be exposed to persistent strong draughts, that may be generated by outside doors or windows, air vents etc. It is recommended that the appliance should not be installed within 500mm of any air vent.

on combustible surfaces are defined as brick, metal, marble, concrete etc. and also a number of man-made
m
aterials impervious to flame. If in doubt refer to the material manufacturer for further information before pro-
c
eeding with installation.
Clearances to the sides of the appliance are 50mm (2in). Clearance to the front of the appliance is 500mm (2ft).
The back of the appliance may be installed directly onto a non-combustible wall, providing the area behind the
appliance is flat and does not interfere with the various vent holes in the back panel of the appliance.
T
he appliance may be installed with or without a non combustible hearth. If a hearth is fitted, the size and design
m
ay be as desired.
A non combustible shelf of any depth may be positioned above the appliance provided it is no closer than
400mm from the top of the appliance glass panel and the wall above the appliance is non combustible.

ombustible materials are defined as wood, fabrics, or other materials likely to combust if exposed to flame.
Generally, any material, which is likely to discolour, melt or misshape when exposed to moderate heat, should
be considered as a combustible material or surface.
Clearance to the sides of the appliance are 100mm(4in) but curtains, drapes and other fabrics are not permitted
within a distance of 500mm(20in) of the appliance sides. No such materials are permitted directly above the
appliance regardless of distance.
The minimum clearance to the ceiling above the appliance is 800mm measured from the top of the appliance
glass panel.
Combustible materials should not be positioned directly in front of the appliance within a distance of one metre.
Under no circumstances should any electrical equipment e.g. plasma screen TV sets etc. be positioned on the
wall above the appliance. The appliance is designed to be wall mounted alone and not in conjunction with any
type of combustible fire surround. No combustible shelves should be positioned on the wall above the appliance. It should be established that any mirrors or picture frames etc. to be positioned on the wall above the
appliance are able to withstand prolonged exposure to moderate heat and moisture before proceeding with
their installation.
The back of the appliance may be installed directly onto a combustible wall, providing it is relatively flat and does
not interfere with the various vent holes in the back panel of the appliance. The wall must be structurally sound
and constructed from a material capable of withstanding moderate heat. Finished plaster, conventional wall
paper and dry-lined plasterboard are examples of suitable materials. Materials such as flock, blown vinyl and
embossed paper which are sensitive to even small amounts of heat should be avoided as scorching and or discolouration may occur over time.
If the appliance is to be mounted on a dry lined wall or a timber framed construction wall then the integrity and
ability of the wall to carry the weight of the appliance must be confirmed. It is important in these circumstances
that any vapour control barrier is not damaged, and that any structural members of the house frame are not damaged.
The appliance may be positioned as close to a solid floor (i.e. stone, wooden laminate etc.) as the particular
design of fireframe permits, however it is not permitted to install the appliance within 100mm of carpet, rugs or
fabric materials of any kind. This dimension is measured vertically to the bottom of the appliance frame.
VVEENNTTIILLAATTIIOONN
A minimum of 100 cm2purpose provided ventilation is required for this appliance. This may be achieved either
with one vent 100 cm
2
at a high or low position in the room, or split ventilation i.e. 50cm2be installed at high
level and 50cm2be installed at low level within the room. An openable window or equivalent is also required.
The requirements of other flued appliance operating in the same room or space must be taken into consideration when assessing ventilation.
