GAZCO PART NUMBER 8456.

WARNING: DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CLEAN THE STOVE
UNTIL IT IS COLD. THE STOVE RETAINS ITS HEAT FOR
A CONSIDERABLE TIME AFTER SHUTDOWN.

5.1 Carefully remove the ceramic fuel bed components and
place to one side taking care to protect floor coverings etc,

PLEASE HANDLE WITH CARE.

5.2 The coals should not require cleaning. Do not use a
vacuum cleaner or brush to clean the coals, any large pieces
of debris can be removed by hand.

5.3 Ensure any debris is removed from the burner ports.

5.4 Replace the ceramics by referring to section 6.

5.5 Use a damp cloth to clean the outer casing of the
appliance.

5.6 The fuel effect and side panels in this appliance are made
from Refractory Ceramic Fibre (RCF), a material which is
commonly used for this application.

Protective clothing is not required when handling these
articles, but we recommend you follow normal hygiene
rules of not smoking, eating or drinking in the work area
and always wash your hands before eating or drinking.

To ensure that the release of RCF fibres are kept to a
minimum, during installation and servicing a HEPA filtered
vacuum is recommended to remove any dust accumulated
in and around the appliance before and after working on it.
When servicing the appliance it is recommended that the
replaced items are not broken up, but are sealed within
heavy duty polythene bags and labelled as RCF waste.

RCF waste is classed as stable, non-reactive hazardous
waste and may be disposed of at a licensed landfill site.

Excessive exposure to these materials may cause temporary
irritation to eyes, skin and respiratory tract; wash hands
thoroughly after handling the material.

To access the ceramic fuel pieces, it will be necessary to
remove the glass door. Lift off the decorative steel trim, see
Diagram 3 and remove the 6 screws holding the glass
frame. See Diagram 4.

7.1 The stove is fitted with the Gazco Flue Sure System, which
will act to cut off the gas supply to the burner in the event
of incorrect operation of the flue. If the system acts to cut
off the gas supply, this indicates that there is insufficient flue
pull. If this occurs a minimum of 10 minutes should be
allowed before trying to relight. Continued operation of this
safety device means there may be a serious problem with
the flue system. A qualified gas engineer should inspect this.

Do not use the stove until an engineer says it is safe to
do so.

8.1 This is a safety feature incorporated in all GAZCO fires,
which automatically switches off the gas supply if the pilot
light goes out and fails to heat the thermocouple.

9.1 The surface coating on your GAZCO stove will ‘burn off’
during the first 24 hours of operation on high, producing a
harmless and temporary odour. If the odour persists ask
your retailer for advice.

10.1 A qualified gas engineer must service the stove every 12
months. In all correspondence, always quote the appliance
type and the Serial Number found on the data badge on
the appliance.

11.1 Any purpose provided ventilation should be checked
periodically to ensure it is free from obstruction.

12.1 To assist in any future correspondence, your installer should
have completed the Appliance Commissioning Checklist in
this manual. This records the essential installation details of
this appliance. In all correspondence always quote the
Model No. and Serial No.

13.1 Parts of this appliance become hot during normal use. It is
recommended that a suitable fire guard be used for
protection of young children and the infirm. Indeed, all
parts of the appliance should be treated as a ‘working
surface’ except for the control area.
