PLEASE NOTE
1. This appliance is to be used only with the type of gas for which it has been supplied. Never attempt to use the
appliance with other gas types.
2. Always use a fireguard complying with BS6539 or BS6778 for the protection of young children, the elderly or infirm.
3. The hearth in front of the fire should be of a non-combustible material.
4. The fire is lit by a piezo electric spark unit.
5. When operating your appliance for the first time, some vapours may be given off which may cause a slight odour and
could possibly set off any smoke alarms in the immediate vicinity. These vapours are quite normal with new
appliances. They are totally harmless and will disappear after a few hours use.
6. Never throw paper, ash or other materials onto your fire.
7. The chimney should have been swept thoroughly before installation.
8. In order to achieve and maintain high levels of personal safety and performance efficiency it is essential that the
opening at the back of the fire and the flue are kept clear of any form of obstruction. It is possible that deposits of
mortar or soot could fall and accumulate causing the flue to be blocked or restricted and so preventing proper
clearance of dangerous exhaust fumes.
In the United Kingdom it is the law that a landlord must have any gas appliance, flue and pipework which is situated in
a tenant’s premises checked for safety at least every 12 months. We recommend that all gas appliances and their flues,
wherever situated, are checked annually by a compe t ent person (In the UK, a CORGI register ed installer).
9. Ensure that any purpose made room ventilation is kept clear from obstruction.
10. This appliance is fitted with an atmosphere sensing device (A.S.D). If the appliance closes down after a period of
operation for no apparent reason, stop using the appliance until the installation and appliance have bee n thoroughly
checked by a competent person.
