We hope you really enjoy the warmth of your new gas fire. Read these instructions carefully before installing and using the gas fire. Keep these instructions in a safe place. Always provide the following information if the gas fire breaks down: model and serial number, which can be found on the unit. Your purchase invoice is your proof of warranty.

1. General

The entire unit is delivered to you with your choice of mantle and/or accessories. See the installation instructions for the relevant mantle and/or accessories that are packaged separately from the unit. Check the unit immediately after delivery to confirm that it has not been damaged during transport. If it is damaged in any way, please inform your supplier immediately and provide as many details as possible.

Attention

The unit must be installed, connected and checked by a qualified fitter based on national, regional, and local standards and regulations. The fitter must inspect the unit for tightness in relation to gas and combustion products and correct operation of the different components and functions. The flue tube system and the outlets in the outer wall or roof face must also meet the requirements of the applicable regulations. The unit falls in the closed unit category, in a set-up location without a fan and with a chimney loss that is greater than 17% (non-condensing).

Warning

Gas fires become hot when in use. Therefore care should be taken, for example, by keeping children and those requiring help away from the immediate vicinity of burning fires. Gas fires must not be placed on or against flammable materials (curtains, etc.).

2. SAFETY DEVICE

The unit is fully safeguarded by means of thermo-electric pilot light protection to prevent unforeseen discharge of gas from the main burner.

2.1 Safety

Do not place ceramic burner decoration material or logs against the pilot burner. Ensure the pilot light is able to burn freely over the main burner. Good ignition of the main burner is only guaranteed if this is the case. Not adhering to these instructions can lead to dangerous situations.

The unit, complete concentric flue system and flue terminal need to be cleaned and checked annually by a recognised gas technician/fitter, so the unit continues to operate safely. For additional instructions, see

Chapter 10: Maintenance.

If, for whatever reason, the pilot light extinguishes, you must wait 5 minutes before igniting the pilot light again.

The unit may not be operated without the glass panel being in place.

It is not permitted to place flammable materials on the ceramic wood inset.

The layout of the main burner with ceramic burner decoration material and wood inset may under no circumstances be changed or added to.

Light flammable materials, such as nylon clothing or flammable liquids, may not be placed near the unit. Ensure children and other persons unaware of the operation of a gas unit, are supervised at all times when

near the unit.

Use a fireguard to protect against burns and protection of the children and persons named above.

5. INITIAL START-UP

The unit has a layer of heat-resistant varnish that resists very high temperatures. An unpleasant smell may develop in the first hours after starting the unit due to burning in of the varnish; however, this is not dangerous. To accelerate this process, allow the unit to burn at the highest setting for several hours and ventilate the area well. After the first time the unit is turned on, a light deposit may form on the inside of the window. This is due to the varnish hardening. After the fireplace has cooled down, this deposit can be removed using a fireplace glass cleaner or ceramic hotplate cleaner.

5.1 Daily maintenance

* Avoid having a lot of dust and cigarette smoke, candle and oil lamp particles in the air of your home. Heat ing of these particles through the convection system of the unit, can lead to discolouring of walls and ceilings. It is therefore advisable to ensure the area containing the unit is always sufficiently ventilated. Regularly remove any dust that has settled behind the operating lid with a vacuum cleaner.

If the glass is broken or cracked, it should be replaced immediately by a recognised fitter before the unit is used again.

* The unit must be switched off immediately if something is spilt on it. It should only be cleaned once the unit has cooled down. Never use abrasive, aggressive cleaning products or fireplace cleaner; only use a dry cloth that does not give off fluff. * Your local specialised dealer will be able to provide you with spray cans containing heat-resistant varnish, so that small stains or damages may be touched-up during annual maintenance.

5.2 Important tips for gas heating or wood fuelled units and fireplaces. Prevent discolouration of walls and ceilings!

There are always particles in the air in each living area even if the area is vacuum cleaned regularly! These particles are easily visible when the sun streams in. This issue will not arise if the amount of particles in the air is limited. If these particles are present in greater quantities and particularly if the air is contaminated by soot and tar particles, for example, through the burning of candles or oil lamps and cigarette or cigar smoke, then we can speak of a poor inner climate! Cooled air slowly flows over the floor to the heater in a heated living area. This air is heated in the convection system of the fireplace or heater, resulting in a quickly rising column of air that subsequently spreads through the room again. This means there is always dust and other polluting particles depositing on cold and often damp surfaces. This issue occurs especially in a new building (building damp) that is not yet dry. An undesirable consequence of this phenomenon could be discolouration of walls and or ceiling!

How can this problem be avoided?

* With a newly built fireplace or following renovation, wait at least 6 weeks before firing up. * The building damp must have disappeared completely from the walls, floor and ceiling. * The room where the unit is located must be well ventilated. * The required air ventilation must be in line with local building regulations. * Limit the use of candles and oil lamps and keep the taper as short as possible. * These two creators of atmosphere ensure considerable quantities of polluting and unhealthy soot particles in your house. * Among other things, cigarettes and cigars contain tar that will precipitate on cold and damp walls during heating. * This may occur above radiators and light fittings and with ventilation grilles (if there is a poor internal climate), although to a lesser degree.

6. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Important

The installation may only be performed by an authorised person

6.1 General instructions

* The gas fireplace must be installed, connected and inspected as a closed unit by a qualified fitter, according to national, regional, and local standards and regulations. * The flue tube system and the outlets in the outer wall or roof face must also meet the requirements outlined in the applicable standards and regulations. * The temperature of the walls and shelves near the side and back of the unit may not be more than 80°C higher than the temperature of the environment. * The unit has been approved in combination with the Metaloterm US system number: 0063-CPD-6308 con centric flue system Ø100 mm - Ø150 mm and Ø130 mm - Ø200 mm , in accordance with European CE standards for gas units, and may therefore only be applied with this system. * The unit needs to be inspected by the fitter for local gas distribution (gas type and gas pressure) as indicated on the identification plate. * The instructions are only applicable if the relevant country code is stated on the unit. If this is not the case, the gas technical information for the relevant country needs to be consulted and modifications discussed with the manufacturer. * There will be air in the gas pipes when the unit is first used. The gas pipes therefore need to be vented first. * Ignite the heater according to operating instructions and check whether the burner flame is uniform. After the unit has been used for the first time, you should remove any deposits resulting from convection-curing of the unit, from the glass window using a glass cleaner for heaters.

Warning: Never install the unit against or within a flammable wall!

Distance to flammable materials:

* With respect to the front, side and top of the unit, a distance of 1000 mm needs to be kept between the unit and: curtains, floor covering, upholstery and fabrics, and/or other flammable material unless stated other wise in these instructions.

Distance to non-flammable materials:

* The unit needs to be placed a minimum distance of 50 mm from the wall unless stated otherwise in these instructions.

Important

* Construction material for fireplaces and mantles etc., or for an assembly must be made of non flammable material. This also applies to floors and ceilings. Never use flammable materials near the unit in compli ance with the abovementioned instructions.

Note: Please contact your supplier if you are unsure.

7. Concentric flue system CC

The concentric flue system consists of a 100 mm Ø inner flue concentric with a 150 mm Ø outer flue, or a 130 mm Ø inner flue concentric with a 200 mm Ø outer flue. These flues have been set up concentrically; the combustion gases are exhausted through the internal flue while the fresh combustion air is supplied between the internal and external flues.

7.1 Components of the concentric flue system. (See page 28)

Different connections are possible using the concentric flue system. These are:

Through the roof face and through the exterior wall.

The layout used for this system can be laid in different ways but there are a few important conditions: * The maximum allowable vertical flue length is 12 metres (the sum of the flue length and the calculation lengths for the bends). * 90° bends have a 2-metre horizontal calculation length. * 45° bends have a 1-metre horizontal calculation length. * The outlet can be installed at any point on the roof face or exterior wall (supply and discharge in an identi cal pressure area), but must meet applicable regulations.

• Duct pathways may not be insulated.

Important

* Ensure the restriction plate is mounted in the correct manner, as indicated in these instructions. * The correct restriction plate will provide the unit with the most optimal efficiency, flame image and com bustion. * Mounting an incorrectly placed restriction plate may cause malfunction of the unit.

7.2 Construction of concentric flue system CC Indirect wall connection.

* The outlet may also be installed above the exhaust in the wall, taking any hindrance to the sur rounding area into consideration, according to national, regional, local standards and regulations. Ensure wind pressure on the flue terminal is not too extreme, such as a balcony, flat roof, corners and in small alleys etc., as this may negatively influence the unit efficiency. * Provide a recess in the exterior wall of around 205 mm (in a flammable wall ensure there is 50mm of extra space around the outer pipe) and fix the wall duct with the wall plate to the inner side of the wall. The wall plate of the exterior wall duct must be sealed sufficiently against the wall on the outside; in connection to there being leaks of moisture and/or flue gas into the living space. * The flue should be cased if necessary. Sufficient fireproof measures must also be taken when the flue is being mounted along flammable materials. * Determine the position of the unit and outlet and begin construction of the flue with the connection on the unit, paying attention to the direction of installation and connecting the elements by means of clamp strips. * The fitted pipe L= 50 - 250 mm can be used between the bends or when connecting to the unit. If necessary, use wall brackets to support the flue.

Mounting using the roof pass-through option

* The flue terminal can be located at any random place on the roof face (supply and exhaust in identical pressure areas) and must meet the applicable rules and regulations. * A roofing sheet for a flat roof or a roofing sheet lead for sloping tiled roofs can be used for a wa tertight duct. Use various bends for the slope, if required. The recess in the roof decking should be 5 cm larger all around, to ensure sufficient fire resistance. * One needs to take into account the regulation regarding fire resistance between rooms (See na tional, regional, local standards and regulations). A casing made of fireproof material (e.g. 12 mm Promatect fire resistant plate) must be used at 25 mm from the outside duct. * Determine the position of the unit and outlet and begin construction of the flue with the connection on the unit (always 1 metre vertical first), paying attention to the direction of installation! The inner flue must be installed for draining purposes. Connect the elements by using clamping strips. En sure the gas tightness of all connections is correct. * A fitted pipe can be used between the bends or when making the connection to the unit and/or the roof pass-through. Use 2 wall brackets to support the flue on each floor

8. Instructions for the Mertik Maxitrol GV60 and the Remote Control: Ensure that the fuel supplied to the unit is clean and free from particles and moisture.

Before a gas supply pipe (new or existing) is connected to the main gas pipe at the gas meter and to the gas control block of the unit, clean and dry compressed air should been blown through it. Cut copper pipes as well as aluminium pilot pipes must be deburred and blown clean before they are con nected. The dust filter at the connection to the gas control block will only filter out the coarsest dirt from the system. Fine particles are still able to reach the inside and may damage and/or adversely affect regula tion in the gas control block.

Heat, moisture and dust are a threat to all electronic components

Protect the electronic gas control until all construction, plastering and paintwork has been completed. If such work cannot be avoided, then protect the control against dirt and moisture penetration by using, for example, plastic film.

Warning

Electronic components will become permanently faulty when exposed to temperatures higher than 60°C. Standard AA batteries will crack open at temperatures >54°C and the battery contents will damage the electronic switches located underneath. Batteries last longest at <25°C. At >50°C the life span is around 23 weeks, this makes the use of the gas fire unnecessarily expensive.

Only install the gas control block and receiver as pre-installed at the factory

Remember that components may have to be replaced or that repairs may have to be performed at a later date. This may be more difficult if the control is installed using a method that is different from the instruc tions provided here.

Please note:

Only place the batteries after wiring to the receiver, gas control block and pilot set is connected.

Premature connection to the energy source may damage the control’s CPU (central processor).

Ensure that the ignition cable is not near the antenna wire and that they do not cross each other.

The high voltage released at ignition may damage the sensitive receiver circuit. This may mean that the unit becomes less responsive or not responsive at all to handset commands. (See photograph 1 on page 16)

Loosen the antenna wire from the terminals on the receiver box

Direct the antenna wire away from the ignition cable and in the direction of the control box door. Ensure there is no contact with metal components. Ensure there is no damage to the connection to elec tronic components or to the wire itself. (See photograph 1 on page 16)

Connect the wires correctly to the contact breaker behind the gas control block.

The shortest wire runs immediately back to the 1/0 switch and can be found nearest to the back of the gas control block. The longest wire runs to one of the two connections on the receiver box and only fits on one of the screws.

Do not tighten the contact breaker and the thermocouple connection too tightly on the gas control block or to each other.

It is sufficient to tighten by hand and add a half a turn with an open-end spanner. Tightening too much will break the connection to the magnetic coil below and/or the insulation around the aluminium contact pin in the contact breaker. This may lead to the magnetic coil not opening the gas supply to the pilot and the unit not working.

Page.16

Do not extend the thermocouple supplied to the pilot set

Extending the thermocouple beyond its limit will lead to a reduction in voltage. This may, in turn, lead to the magnetic coil not being activated.

Prevent leakage of the ignition spark to parts of the installation other than the ignition rod at the pilot.

Ensure the ignition cable is not in contact with the shell or other metal parts. If a cable extension is used, ensure that connections are additionally insulated using silicone.

The receiver and the control units on the gas control block should be switched on to ensure automatic start-up through the manual transmitter.

The oval disk on the gas control block should be turned to the ON position. The I/0 switch should be set to 1. See photograph 2. The ignition cable should be connected to the SPARK connection point on the receiver box. See photograph 1.

The manual transmitter has to communicate with the receiver. This has to be ‘learnt’.

Press the RESET button using a blunt object. (See photograph 3.) Continue to press this button until you hear a short beeping sound, followed immediately by a long beeping signal. Release the button. Direct the manual transmitter towards the receiver and press the arrow down until you hear a long beeping sound. The gas control button will now move for a short period. The manual transmitter has now learned the setting with regard to the receiver and the unit can now be ignited using the remote control.

The system’s thermostat sensor is in the manual transmitter.

The manual transmitter operates best at a distance of 2 or 3 metres from the unit. Although communication occurs via short wave radio signals, it is recommended to place the hand transmitter in view of the gas apparatus in a place where the user wishes to experience a pleasant temperature. Do not place the manual transmitter in direct sunlight or other warm location. The thermostat measures the temperature and regulates the flame size of the gas unit accordingly.

Only remove batteries using non-metallic tools.

Removing batteries with a metal object may damage the electronic control permanently.

11. PLACING THE UNIT (first read “General instructions”)

Please note: Before placing the unit, we recommend you first read Chapter 7 “Concentric flue system” on

page 11.

11.1 Unit components (see page 28, figures 5 and 6.)

1 Unit 5 Window 9 Set screw 13 Baffle plate 2 Stainless steel front 6 Burner plate 10 Adjustment leg 14 Restriction plate 3 Glass strip 7 Burner 11 Wall brackets 4 Glass strip fixing bolts 8 Bottom plate 12 Control box

11.2 Connection to the gas pipes (see also page 22 for details) You can determine where the gas pipes will be placed, dependent on the layout. Ensure control equipment is not twisted during installation and there is no excessive tension. Accessibility of various connection points in relation to components need to be maintained. After installation, check the connections for tightness in relation to gas. Use a 1/2“ gas tap with connection. Ensure the gas pipes are dirt-free and sand-free, and gas and combustion products from various parts and functioning is correct. The gas connection should only be undertaken when the electricity supply is dead. This prevents any damage occurring to the gas control equipment.

11.3 Preparation and installation of the unit

* Remove the packaging and check the unit for possible damage. * Note: place the unit on a stable surface. * Do not place the unit on its back or on its side. * Take the lifting frame (A) out of the packaging and use it to place the unit (B) at its intended location * The window should now be removed in order to take the additional parts out of the unit. * Remove the glass strip (C) by unscrewing the 3, 4 or 5 countersunk Allen screws (page 28 figure 5-4). Carefully remove the glass strip from its fixture, possibly with the aid of a screw driver. * By placing the supplied suction cups (D) evenly over the glass window, the window can be easily removed from the unit by first carefully moving it upwards and then very carefully and slowly pulling the bottom of the window towards you; next, put the window down and leave it in a safe place where it cannot be broken or damaged.

Please note: the window is very fragile. You should therefore be very careful when moving/ installing the window!

* Next, take the packaged components out of the unit and check to make sure they are not damaged or broken. * Situate the unit (see page 29 figures 7 and 8 as an example of an instal lation location) in your chosen installation location using the lifting frame (A and B). At the rear and the sides, the unit must have at least 50 mm clearance from fireproof built-in materials. Install the convec tion set and position the supplied convection grilles at least 50 cm be low the ceiling (see page 29 figures 7C and 8C) on the appropriate wall. A lowered ceiling inside the whole structure (fireproof built-in materials) could be a possible solution in the event of a situation with a visual obstruction.

Please note: Convection temperature output can be over 100 °C at

the convection grilles

Attention: in an installation location similar to figure 7, a mantle iron will have to be installed. See also the

detail on page 29 figure 7A for the installation of the mantle iron.

* The legs of the unit can provide additional height of up to 300 mm (min. 185 and max. 485) for the rough adjustment using the set screw (9). The adjustment legs (5) allow the unit to be adjusted more finely. * Attach the unit to the wall using the wall brackets (11) for a stable installation.

* Now determine the installation and assembly of the CC ducts and accessories. Please refer to Chapter 7 “Concentric flue system” on page 11 and the “Table of concentric pathways” on page 25. * Install the Mertik control Box (12) in your chosen installation location.

Please note: The distance between the control cabinet and the unit will be determined by the cable lengths from

the control cabinet to the pilot burner and the gas block etc. and how all these items are installed. The max. distance is 800 mm (see also page 27 figures 1 to 4). The pipes, cables and/or couplings etc. should only be connected when the electricity supply is off.

* It is also possible to install the fireplace using fireproof sheets (see example on page 29, figure 8) * The slats, log inset / pebbles or Carrara stones may now be installed.

MAKE SURE THE PILOT LIGHT REMAINS UNOBSTRUCTED!

* Before reinserting the window, check whether or not a restriction plate needs to be installed. See page 20 and the “Table of concentric pathways” on page 25. * If a restriction plate is required for your installation situation, remove the baffle plate (13) by un screw ing the front of the plate (see page 28 figure 6) and then sliding the plate backwards and taking it out. Now install the restriction plate (14) using the two supplied screws and reinsert the baffle plate.

11.4 Fitting the ceramic log inset 1036, 1037, 1038 and 1039 (see pages 30, 31 and 32)

Please note: when installing the log inset and the various glowing materials and accessories, the fol-

lowing must be taken into account:

A: There should be no glowing material in or on the pilot burner. B: Ceramic materials should not come into contact with the cord of the window fixture.

Remove this if necessary. The window may otherwise be damaged. * Mix the glowing material (lava granules) and the “fusilli” (spiral-shaped ceramic material) and spread them evenly over the burner and the burner plate so that they are just covered. Glowing embers can be placed here and there as decoration.

NOTE: the remaining material can be discarded. The use of too much glowing material can adversely affect the combustion process (see also notes A and B above)

* Then insert the logs in the correct order as shown on pages 30, 31 and 32. * Position the log inset carefully. Different positions may have a significant influence on the flame image or

cause poor functioning of the burning process (explosion).

11.5 Fitting the optional pebble set (see page 33 figure 9)

* Scatter vermiculite evenly over the burner tray. Make sure the pilot light remains unobstructed. * Place a row of medium-sized and large pebbles at the front of the burner plate * Insert the pilot light protective cage in the 2 sockets to the left and right of the pilot light. * Fill the burner tray with small and medium-sized pebbles from the front to the rear. Place the pebbles as closely as possible to each other on the burner tray. * Fill the rear of the burner plate with medium-sized and large pebbles. * Reinstall the window, following the instructions for removing it in reverse order.

11.6 Fitting the optional Carrara stones (see page 33 figure 10)

* Scatter vermiculite evenly over the burner tray. Make sure the pilot light remains unobstructed. * Insert the pilot light protective cage in the 2 sockets to the left and right of the pilot light. * Fill the burner tray neatly and evenly with the Carrara stones. * Reinstall the window, following the instructions for removing it in reverse order.
