INTRODUCTION

The LEANLlNE III Te incorporates a single gas control, which selects ignition pilot, low or high
settings. It is operated via a slide lever on the upper right hand side of the appliance.

The appliance incoJorates a safety device in the form of an Oxygen Depletion System, which
constantly monitors ~he oxygen in the room and will cause the fire to switch off if the oxygen
level reduces, for instance due to insufficient ventilation or a blocked flue.

If this regularly occurs do not attempt to relight the appliance until a qualified engineer has

checked it, the problem may not be due to lack of air or a defective flue.

The pilot can be left ~n or the pilot can be extinguished and relit each time the fire is used.

A fire front (fret) muJt be used with this appliance.
