or infirm are likely to be present.
Never Hang Flammable Items Over The Appliance
Notice
Discolouration of wall surfaces
Most heating appliances generate warm air convection currents and
transfer heat to any wall surface against which they are situated.
Some soft furnishings (such as blown vinyl wallpapers) may not be
suitable for use where they are subject to temperatures above normal
room levels and the manufacturer's advice should be sought before
using this type of wall covering adjacent to any heating appliance.
The likelihood of wall staining from convected air currents will be
increased in environments where high levels of tobacco smoke or other
contaminants exist.
Although the fire appears similar to a coal fire when operating care
should be taken to avoid throwing rubbish onto the coalbed.
B.S. Codes of Practice
Shelf
1. If a shelf is to be fitted above the fire, then it must be at least
126mm (5in) above the fire and not more than 178mm (7in) in
depth.
2. Alternatively, a 229mm (9in) deep shelf may be fitted, but must
be at least 180mm (71/8in) above the fire.

2.0 Introduction
4
2.1 Introduction
1. Your Baxi Bermuda Inset 3 Super is a central
heating boiler combined with a gas fire. The
firefront is of the Decorative Fuel Effect type and
incorporates an optional illumination effect for
use when the fire is off. The boiler will provide
heating for the rest of the house and also
domestic hot water if required. The boiler and fire
are independently controlled.
2. The boiler may be controlled by an external
programmer or clock control (see separate
instructions with the clock controller used).
Manual control is available with the boiler
thermostat control.
NOTE: The fire or illumination effect will not
function in the event of a power failure.
2.2 Controls and Identification (Fig. 1)
1. The controls for the fire are situated on the
upper left hand side of the fire surround.
2. Remove the controls access door at the
bottom of the fire to gain access to the boiler
controls.
3. Fire identification is situated on the inner right
hand side panel behind the controls access door.
4. Boiler identification is on the boiler controls
behind the controls access door.
5. Before operating the unit ensure that the main
gas and electricity supplies are turned on.
2.3 Pilot/A.S.D.
1. Both the boiler and firefront are fitted with a
pilot light that also acts as an Atmospheric
Sensing Device. This means that in the event of
the flow of gases out of the flue being interrupted
the pilots will extinguish and shut the fire and
boiler down. If this occurs persistently your
installer or British Gas Service should be
contacted immediately.

3.1 To light the boiler (Fig. 2)
Ensure that all external controls, e.g. room
thermostat, timer etc., are calling for heat. To
operate the pilot turn the thermostat knob to the
desired position. The green neon light on the
control box will illuminate once the pilot is lit. The
burner will also light shortly after the pilot has
been established. The pilot is intermittent and
only lights when the boiler thermostat is calling
for heat.
If the boiler cannot be lit by the above method
consult your Installer or British Gas Service.
3.2 To adjust the boiler temperature
(Fig. 2)
Turn the boiler thermostat knob clockwise to the
required setting. The optimum boiler thermostat
setting depends upon type of system, external
controls and your requirements. Your Installer will
be able to advise you on this matter.
3.3 Resetting the boiler
1. If the boiler lockout light is illuminated, it is
necessary to reset the appliance. To do this turn
the boiler thermostat control knob fully anti-
clockwise to the OFF position and wait 10
seconds. Turn the control knob clockwise to the
required setting. The boiler will commence the
ignition sequence providing the water
temperature is sufficiently cool.
3.4 To switch off the boiler for short
periods (Fig. 2)
1. Turn the boiler thermostat knob fully anti-
clockwise to the off position (O) until it clicks.
3.5 To switch off the boiler for long
periods (Fig. 2)
1. Turn the boiler thermostat knob fully anti-
clockwise to the off position (O) until it clicks.
2. It is recommended that if the system is left off
for long periods during cold weather the whole
system is drained to avoid frost damage.
3. Advice on draining the system can be obtained
from the Installer or a Qualified Service Engineer.

5.1 Arranging the Coals
It is important that all the coals are used and
arranged as shown in order to achieve the
desired flame picture.
CAUTION: The coals are extremely fragile and
must be handled accordingly. Gloves should be
worn and any inhalation of the dust should be
avoided. Keep the coals away from children at
all times. Never use coals other than those
originally supplied or Genuine Baxi Spare Parts.
Never put additional coals on the fire. Please
read section 1.2 Important Information and
section 6.1 Cleaning the Fire.
1. It may be necessary to remove some or all of the
coals to retouch or clean them at some time.
Cleaning must only be done using a very soft
brush. Any areas of the coal bed where the coating
has deteriorated may be retouched using the black
stain available direct from Baxi UK Limited or from
your local Baxi Spares Stockist. Quote Part No
043224 when ordering.
2. The following procedure assumes all the loose
coals, side cheeks, rear and front coals are to be
fitted. If not all the coals require replacement, refer
to the diagrams and determine at which point you
need to commence.
3. Place the right / left hand side cheeks against
the combustion box side walls (Fig. 4).
4. Locate the rear coal behind the combustion box
base front lip and angle it back against the side
cheek location stops (Figs. 4 & 5).
5. Locate the front coal onto the rear coal side
support ledges and behind the lip of the burner
bracket (Figs. 5 & 6).
6. Place 5 of the loose coals into the location
recesses of the front coal, (flat face downward).
The 3 centre coals should rest against the
corresponding rear coal spacer lugs. Orientation of
the coals should be as shown in order to achieve
the desired flame picture (Fig. 7).
7. Place the remaining 4 loose coals between the
front loose coals and the rear coal, (flat face
downwards). Orientation of the coals should be as
shown in order to achieve the desired flame picture
(Fig. 8).

6.1 Cleaning the Fire
1. The fire may be cleaned with a damp cloth and
wiped with a soft duster. Do not use metal polish
on any parts of the appliance. (BC model only -
The fender assembly may be cleaned with a non-
abrasive aluminium, brass or chrome liquid
cleaner.)
2. It is possible that some soot may be
deposited on the coals after use. This is
acceptable providing it is not allowed to
accumulate. Should any soot accumulation
become excessive the fuel effect pieces should be
removed from the fire for cleaning. it is
recommended that gloves are worn when handling
these items. Cleaning should be carried out in a
well-ventilated area or the open air by gently
brushing with a soft brush with the pieces/bed held
away from the face to avoid inhaling the dust. The
use of a normal domestic vacuum cleaner is not
recommended as it may blow dust back into the
air. Care must also be taken if retouching the fuel
effect pieces is required. Always wash hands
thoroughly after handling the fuel effect pieces.

newspaper or similar to prevent soiling
furnishings.
2. Lift out the glass retaining assembly (Fig. 9).
3. Remove the bulb by pulling out from the
ceramic bulb holder to disengage the pins
(Fig. 10).
4. Fit the replacement bulb in reverse order.
NOTE: Halogen bulbs should not be handled with
bare fingers. Always use a cloth to grip the bulb.
5. Replace the glass retaining assembly and
reassemble the coal bed (see Arranging the Coals
- section 5.0).
6.3 Cleaning or Changing the Glass
1. Remove the coals, placing them on a
newspaper or similar to prevent soiling
furnishings.
