Please consult with your local Gazco dealer if you have any questions. In all correspondence always quote the Model Number and Serial Number.

1.5 Parts of this appliance become hot during normal use. It is therefore recommended that a suitable fire guard be used for protection of young children and the infirm.

2.1 Locate the control valve on the appliance. There are two

control knobs on the valve, the right hand knob controls the pilot ignition and the left hand knob controls the main burner.

2.2 If your appliance has already been upgraded to battery remote control, please refer to the instructions provided with the upgrade to operate the remote control. The following instructions will work for either situation.

2.3 Ensure that the left-hand control knob is pointing to off ( ).

2.4 Ensure that the right hand control knob is pointing to off ( ).

2.5 Press in the right hand control knob and rotate it anti-clockwise

until a click is heard (keep pressing in) and the knob is pointing to pilot ( ). The pilot should now light. If the pilot has not lit, repeat the procedure until it does.

2.6 Keep the control knob pressed for 10 seconds and then

release it, the pilot should stay alight. If the pilot goes out, repeat the procedures until it does.

2.7 If the pilot will not light after repeated attempts, contact the

retailer or installer from whom the appliance was purchased.

2.8 Turn the right hand control to point to main burner ( ). The appliance can now be controlled using the left hand control knob.

2.9 Turn the left hand control knob to point to low fire ( ), the main burner will light on low. The burner can now be controlled between low and high settings. Turn the control

knob anticlockwise increase the flame height and clockwise to decrease the flame height.

THE YELLOW FLAMES WILL APPEAR WHEN THE FIRE HAS GAINED SUFFICIENT HEAT - TYPICALLY 10 TO 20 MINUTES.

3.1 To turn the fire off, locate the control valve, turn the left-hand control knob until it points to off ( ). The main burner will go out leaving the pilot burning.

3.2 To turn the pilot off, locate the control valve, turn the right

hand control knob until it points to off ( ), the pilot will go out.

If the pilot does not ignite as described in Section 2, please consult your GAZCO dealer to rectify the problem. However, the appliance may be lit as a temporary measure using the following procedure:

4.1 Press in the right hand control knob and rotate it anticlockwise until a click is heard (keep pressing in) and the knob is pointing to pilot ( ), apply a lighted match to the pilot hood, see diagram 2.

4.2 When the pilot is alight, extinguish the match and continue

to depress for 5 to 10 seconds.

4.3 The fire may now be controlled as previously described.

5.1 Your fire is fitted with a control valve that can easily be

upgraded to battery powered remote control. This upgrade can be fitted by anyone capable of simple DIY jobs and requires no special training. This upgrade can be obtained through your local Gazco stockist.

5.2 STANDARD REMOTE CONTROL This remote control can

control the fire after the pilot has been lit. It can turn the main burner on and regulate it from low through to high and back again. It can turn the main burner off leaving the pilot burning GAZCO PART NUMBER 8455.

5.3 IMPORTANT - there is a thermostatic version of the upgrade but this is NOT SUITABLE for open flame fires like the Logic.

6. CLEANING THE FIRE

USER INSTRUCTIONS

7. ARRANGEMENT OF FUEL BED COMPONENTS

6.1 Remove the ceramic coals or pebblesand place on a dry, clean surface. Remove the fuelbed and the burner cover gasket.

6.2 Clean the burner and tray assembly using a vacuum cleaner with soft brush attachment, ensure all debris is removed from the burner ports.

6.3 Replace the ceramics by referring to section 7.

NOTE: CERAMIC PARTS ARE FRAGILE. THE SIDE AND REAR PANELS ARE REVERSIBLE. ONE SIDE IS PLAIN, THE OTHER SIDE IS REEDED. ASK THE CUSTOMER WHICH SIDE IS PREFERRED AT THIS STAGE.

ONLY USE THE CORRECT TYPE AND QUANTITY OF CERAMIC COMPONENTS. POINTS 7.1 TO 7.5 ARE COMMON TO ALL FUEL TYPES AND LAYOUTS.

7.1 Position the burner cover gasket on the burner skin ensuring the holes align with the ports. Take care as the front left-hand hole is offset compared to the others. See diagram 3, arrow A.

7.2 Position the flame baffle centrally on the tray and ensure the stepped lower edge engages against the rear edge of the burner skin. See diagram 4.

7.3 Place the rear panel against the rear of the box and slide the side panels on either side of the flame baffle. Ensure they

locate in the brackets at the top of the firebox. DO NOT

SLIDE THEM ALL THE WAY BACK. See diagram 5.

7.4 Locate the top panel on top of the rear and side panels.

Finally push the sides fully towards the rear panel. This will retain the top panel. See diagram 6.

7.5 Place the front coal centrally in the channel at the front of

the tray. See diagram 7. The relationship between the front coal and flame baffle is shown in diagram 7.

USER INSTRUCTIONS

COAL LAYOUT

NOTE: THERE ARE TWO LARGE COALS IN A BAG INSIDE THE MAIN BAG. THESE ARE ONLY TO BE USED WHEN A CURVED FRONT SUCH AS THE HOLYROOD AND RICHMOND ARE USED. DO NOT USE THE TWO LARGE COALS WHEN USING A FLAT FRONTED FRAME.

A) FRONT ROW COAL LAYOUT USING FLAT FIRE FRONTS

7.6 The front row is the only difference in coal layout. Place one large coal centrally on the front coal resting against the frame. Then place three small coals either side. See diagram 8.

B) FRONT ROW COAL LAYOUT USING CURVED FIRE FRONTS.

7.7 Place three large coals resting on top of the front coal and

against the front of the frame, then place two small coals either side of the large ones. See diagram 9

C) COAL LAYOUT CONTINUED FROM FRONT ROW

7.7 Place four large coals behind the first row and one small coal either end resting up against the side panels. See diagram 10

7.8 Place one small coal either side on top of the flame baffle in each rear corner. Then place two large coals in between the two small coals. These coals should touch the rear panel. See diagram 11.

7.9 Finally place five large coals between the second and rear row of coals. See diagram 12.

7.10 It is essential that gaps are left between the coals to maximise

the performance of the appliance.

PEBBLE LAYOUT - CURVED AND FLAT FRONTS

7.12 ALL THE PEBBLES HAVE AN IDENTIFICATION ON THE UNDERSIDE. ENSURE THE PEBBLES ARE PLACED ONLY IN THEIR CORRECT POSITIONS.

7.13 Place the first row of pebbles on top of the front coal resting against the frame front. All the identifications are placed

face down so they cannot be seen. See diagram 13.

7.14 Working from the outside of the appliance, place the second

row of pebbles against the rear of the first row. Note the orientation of each pebble, as this is important to the

performance of the fire. See diagram 14.

7.15 Place the rear row of pebbles on top of the flame baffle,

these must touch the rear panel. See diagram 15.

7.16 Place the remaining five pebbles between the second and rear rows. See diagram 16.

8.1 The appliance is fitted with an oxygen sensitive pilot system will act to cut off the gas supply to the fire should the

oxygen in the room fall below its normal level. If the fire is turned off by this device, it usually indicates that there is a problem with the flue system, and this should be inspected by a qualified engineer. Do not attempt to use the fire

until an engineer says it is safe to do so.

This device is not a substitute for an independently mounted carbon monoxide detector.

9.1 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.

10.1 The surface coating on the coals used in your GAZCO fire

will ‘burn off’ during the first few hours of use, producing a harmless and temporary odour. This will disappear after a short period of use. If the odour persists, ask your installer for advice.

11.1 This fire must be serviced every 12 months by a qualified

Gas Engineer. In all correspondence, always quote the appliance type and serial number, which may be found on the databadge located on a chain beneath the control valve.

12.1 Any purpose provided ventilation should be checked

periodically to ensure that it is free from obstruction.

13.1 To assist in any future correspondence, your installer should

have completed this commissioning sheet, this records, the essential installation details of the appliance. In all correspondence always quote the Model Number and Serial Number.
