REGULATORY INFORMATION AND INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
THE FOLLOWING MUST BE NOTED PRIOR TO THE INSTALLATION OF THIS APPLIANCE.
This gas appliance M ST be installed by a GAS SAFE registered installer by law. It must be installed in
accordance to these installation instructions and the GAS SAFETY (Installation & se) REG LATIONS 1998 as
amended. Non compliance of this law may lead to prosecution and it is in the interest of you and your
family that this condition is observed.
The installation of this appliance must be in accordance with the relevant parts of the LOCAL AND
NATIONAL B ILDING REG LATIONS as issued by the Department of the Environment or B ILDING
STANDARD (Scotland Consolidation) REG LATIONS issued by the Scottish Development Department and
the following relevant British Standards:
BS5871 Part 2 Installation of Inset Live Fuel Effect Gas Fires
BS5440 Parts 1 & 2 Installation of Flues and Ventilation
BS6891 Installation of Gas Pipe-work
BS6461 Part 1 Installation of Chimneys and Flues
BS1251 Open Fireplace Components
BS715/BS EN 1856-2 Metal Flue Boxes / Metal Flue Pipes for Gas Appliances
BS EN 1858 Chimneys Components & Concrete Flue Blocks
IS813:1996 Domestic Gas Installation (Republic of Ireland)
Prior to installation ensure that the gas supply is compatible with the appliance, this appliance must only be
used on natural gas at a supply pressure of 20 mbar as marked on the data plate on the appliance and the
carton.
This appliance is only to be installed into a builder opening which must be constructed of non-combustible
materials confirming to BS1251 or a suitable flue-box complying with the requirements of BS715/BS EN
1856-2.
If the product is being installed into a builders opening the chimney must be at least 3 metres in height and
should be swept before installation if it has been used for the burning of solid fuel (e.g. coal or wood). The
chimney must only serve as a flue-way to this appliance and must have no openings to any other room. The
opening should be inspected and any exposed brickwork should be repaired where necessary. The chair-
brick (if applicable) should be removed. Ensure that the chimney/flue only serves one fireplace. Remove or
securely fix open and dampers or register plates.
If the product is being installed into a fabricated Flue-box (to BS715) it must be installed onto a non-
combustible surface with a thickness of at least 12mm.
The flue should be checked for draw using a smoke bomb or similar, if there is a definite draw then the
installation of the appliance can proceed.

4
No purpose made ventilation is normally required for this appliance when installed in G.B. If the appliance is
being installed in I.E then refer to I.S 813:1996 (Domestic Gas Installation—National Standards Authority of
Ireland). Ventilation areas (if applicable) should be checked periodically to ensure there is no obstruction,
even though none is normally required for this appliance.
When installing into conventional chimneys or 7” dia.(175mm) flues with an effective height of over 5metres
the restrictor baffle supplied may be fitted to increase the efficiency of the appliance. It is mandatory that
the safe clearance of products be checked by performing a smoke match test as described on the product
data label.
SPILLAGE TEST: To check for satisfactory clearance of products of combustion, close all doors and windows
and leave the appliance burning on HIGH for five minutes. Insert a lit smoke match just into the top of the
fire opening and move it left and right, all the smoke must be drawn into the flue. If spillage occurs allow a
further 5 minutes and repeat the test. If spillage still occurs turn off the appliance and seek expert advise . If
an extractor fan is situated in the room the spillage test should be repeated with the fan running. If there is a
connecting room with an extractor fan the test should be repeated with all the doors to that room open and
the extractor fan running. If the appliance spills with the restrictor fitted then the restrictor should be
removed and the spillage test repeated. If the spillage test continues to fail expert advise should be sought
and additional ventilation may have to be provided.
This appliance must only be installed on to a suitable hearth with a minimum thickness of 12mm. The
appliance must not be installed directly onto carpet of other combustible floor materials. The fireplace
surround (back-panel) must have a temperature rating of at least 150oC.
Do not place soft wall coverings (i.e. embossed papers etc,) furniture or other combustible items too close to
the fires as they may discolour or scorch.
Do not place or throw rubbish or otherwise on the fuel-bed.
Do not place any combustible materials or flooring (i.e. carpets etc,) on any part of the hearth.
WARNING: This appliance has a naked flame and as with all heating appliances a fireguard should be used
for the protection of children, the elderly and infirm. The fireguard should conform to BS8423 : 2002
(Fireguards or use with Gas Heating Appliances).
Important Note: It is quite normal for a flame effect gas appliance to experience a small amount of soot or
staining to some parts of the fuel effect components. If this becomes excessive it may because the fuel bed
is not fitted correctly—this should be checked according to these installation instructions prior to
contacting a service engineer.
It is very important that you arrange for a GAS SAFE registered engineer to service your appliance every year
– during this service the engineer will remove the appliance and check for debris, check the operation of the
flue and check the operation of the appliance. This is important for you and your families safety.
NEVER place any rubbish or otherwise onto the fire—this will affect the way the product operates and may
affect the warranty of the product.
NEVER place more ceramic components onto the fuel bed than specified in the instructions.
NEVER touch the ceramics when the appliance has recently been switched off—these components retain
heat and may cause burns. Leave the appliance to sufficiently cool prior to any contact of the ceramics.

SITING THE APPLIANCE
Fireplace Opening
This fire is suitable for fitting into non combustible fireplace back panels with a temperature rating of
at least 150oC. (This is also known as CLASS”O” If in doubt please contact the supplier of the back
panel supplier to check suitability). It is recommended that the back panel be constructed of 3
sections with joints across the upper level of the fireplace opening to allow for expansion and
contraction. The installation of this appliance into an unsuitable back panel, where this component
subsequently cracks, will not be deemed to be a fault of the appliance. This appliance is suitable for
installation into a Be Modern approved back panel where it is NOT installed as a closure plate (i.e.
the fireplace opening must be coincidental with the back panel opening).
The fireplace opening must be between 405mm and 450mm wide and between 555mm and 570mm high. If the
opening intended for the appliance is in excess of these dimensions then a suitable surround must be constructed
of non-combustible material to produce an opening within this range of dimensions.
A flat face of a minimum 470mm wide and 590mm high must be provided around the fireplace opening to ensure a
good seal is formed. In addition it is important to ensure that the base of the fireplace opening is flat and level with
the hearth surface to ensure a secure and aligned installation of the appliance.
The minimum hearth dimensions are shown in the diagram above. The upper surface of the hearth must be a
minimum of 50mm above the floor and must protrude a minimum distance of 300mm out from the fireplace
opening. (It is important to note that should a spacer of any kind be used to bring the appliance out of the fireplace,
then the 300mm dimension must be taken from the most forward surface of this spacer).
Installation into a Brick Chimney
When the appliance is being installed into a brick chimney there must be sufficient depth behind the appliance to
accommodate any falling debris. This debris collection void should be capable of accommodating up to twelve (12)
litres of volumetric space. The appliance will require a debris collection space behind the firebox of 23mm to achieve
this.
Installation into a Prefabricated Twin Wall Metal Flue Box
This appliance can be installed into a prefabricated metal twin wall flue box providing it complies to the requirements of
BS715 / BS EN 1856-2. The box must have an insulated flue with a minimum diameter of 125mm (5”) diameter and a
minimum effective overall height of 3 metres.
The top outer face of the flue box should be insulated to prevent heat loss with a layer of mineral wool insulation or
similar. The metal flue box (to BS715) must stand on a non-combustible surface with a minimum thickness of 12mm.

6
Fireplace Opening (Hole in the Wall Installation)
This appliance M ST be installed in accordance with all relevant sections of document ‘J’ of the building regulations.
This appliance may be installed such that the base of the appliance sit on the surface of a fireplace opening at least
110mm up from the floor—this dimension ensures that there is no incandescent material (flame or ceramic
impinged by flame) is less than 225mm from the floor.—This is a requirement of document ‘J’of the building
regulations.
Where a hole in the wall installation is employed it is important that the fret to the appliance is either integral with
the trim, is fixed to the appliance securely or a small hearth surface is constructed at the base of the opening for the
fret to sit upon. If such a hearth is constructed it must be a minimum of 480mm in width and 100mm deep.
It is always important to ensure that the appliance is fixed securely to the fireplace opening and that no movement
of the ceramics takes place when the appliance is operated. It is additionally important in a ‘hole in the wall’
installation to ensure loose ceramics cannot fall from the appliance. In addition it is imperative that ONLY fascia/trim
arrangements supplied by Be Modern deemed suitable to be used with Be Modern appliances in a ‘hole in the wall’
installation shall be used.
THE INSTALLER M ST INFORM THE SER OF THE FOLLOWING IMPORTANT NOTICES AFTER A HOLE IN THE WALL
INSTALLATION HAS BEEN NDERTAKEN.
1. The user must be made aware to fit a secure fireguard where the room is used by elderly, infirm, infants or
young children.
2. The customer should be advised to fit a hearth panel or a physical barrier in accordance with BS5871-2. Should
this advice not be followed the customer should be advised to give due to consideration to the safety of the
occupants in the room where the appliance is to be installed.
3. The user must be made aware to keep the area immediately in front of the appliance must always be kept clear
of combustibles items. This does not include the floor covering however such covering should be fixed.
4. The user must ensure that the ceramic fuel bed is maintained in the correct condition of installation, especially
after cleaning. If the fuel bed is removed for cleaning or maintenance the ceramics should be checked for
secure placing and tested for movement during appliance operation.
5. The user must ensure that other occupants of the room where the appliance is installed are notified to not get
unnecessarily close to the appliance when in use or to position any furniture or appliances too close to the fire.
Checking the Flue
se a smoke pellet prior to the appliance installation to ensure the viability of the flue and check that the smoke can
be seen being emitted from the terminal / chimney pot outside. There must be no leakage of smoke through the
structure of the chimney/flue during or after the smoke pellet test and it is important to check inside upstairs rooms
adjacent to the chimney/flue. If the installation is into a pre-cast flue ensure check the loft space to ensure that the
connection between the pre-cast block and the fluepipe is sound. Check the chimney pot / terminal and general
condition of the brickwork or masonry. If the chimney or flue is in poor condition or if there is no up-draught do not
proceed with the installation. If there is a history of down-draught conditions with the chimney / flue, the
installation of a tested and certificated flue terminal or cowl suitable for the relevant flue type should be considered.
A spillage test must be performed—see page 4 of these instructions.

7
Spillage monitoring System
This appliance is fitted with an atmospheric sensing system in the form of an oxygen sensing pilot burner. This is designed
to shut the fire off in the event of products being spilled into the room where the fire is being operated. It is important to
note that this spillage monitoring device should not be disabled or be adjusted by the installer. If the spillage monitoring
device (O.D.S pilot) is replaced it must only be exchanged with a suitable component which is supplied by Be Modern Ltd.
Combustible Shelf
This appliance may be fitted below a surround with a combustible shelf providing the following dimensional criteria is met:
There must be a minimum distance of 250mm from the top of the appliance to the underside of the shelf. The shelf must
not project more than 150mm from the mounting surface of the appliance into the room. If the shelf projects more than
150mm then the distance between the top of the appliance and the underside of the shelf must be increased accordingly;
for every 10mm of projection above 150mm the distance between the fire and shelf must be increased by 20mm
Shelf Protrusion Min. Distance Between Fire and Shelf
150mm 250mm
160mm 270mm
170mm 290mm
180mm 310mm
190mm 330mm
200mm 350mm
Fixing the Appliance.
If the appliance is being installed with a spacer kit, this should be attached to the appliance using the screws included
and the foam seal which is supplied with the appliance should be affixed to the rear face of the spacer. Do not use any
permanent sealing substance as this will invalidate warranty as the appliance cannot be removed for periodical
inspections.
Cable Fixing System (Supplied as standard)
This appliance is best installed with the cable fitting system which is supplied in the standard fitting pack. The fitting
system comprises four (4) eyebolts, two (2) fixing cables, two (2) screwed nipples and two (2) adjuster fittings.
This installation requires that the burner tray is removed from the firebox. Remove the screws securing the burner tray
to the firebox and set the tray aside during the firebox installation.
Simply drill and fit the eyebolts in the positions shown in the next diagram.
Then thread the fixing cables through the two small holes at the top/rear of
the appliance, pass each cable through two of the eyelets then back through
one of the two holes at the rear of the appliance. Thread the cable through
the adjuster fittings. When the appliance is in its installed position, pull the
cables tight and slide the adjuster to the back of the fire—ensuring the back-
nut on the adjuster has been run as far up the thread as possible to the
hexagon shoulder. Keeping the cable tight, fit the screwed nipple to the
cable and secure. Turn the back-nut on the adjuster fixing and the cable will
be tensioned until the appliance is securely fixed.
Drill a hole 8mm
dia. by 40mm
deep. Ensure all
the debris is
removed from
the hole.
Use a wrench to twist the
nut tightly until the
anchor is solid and
reliable.

Removal of the front glass panel.
The top glass clamp is held in place with 3 screws. This
panel is concealed behind the top cover strip which is held
in place by two magnets. The two magnets are fitted to the
top glass clamp as shown in this diagram.
Carefully remove the 3 fixing screws and whilst supporting
the glass panel, remove the clamp. Now lift the glass from
the appliance. The bottom edge of the glass is retained in
the two supports bottom left and right.
Now the ceramics can be installed, rearranged correctly or
removed for service. Correct installation of ceramics is
details on pages 15 & 16.
Installation of the front glass panel.
Before replacing the glass ensure that the seal around the top
and two sides of the firebox is in good condition and is
securely affixed to the appliance. If the seal is damaged of
loose then it should be replaced / reaffixed before the glass is
replaced. This seal is important and if damaged, the appliance
should not be operated.
The glass panel should be undamaged. If the glass panel is
broken or cracked it should not be used. Contact the
manufacturer for a suitable replacement before continuing.
Replace the glass panel into position by locating the bottom
edge into the two lower supports.
Rotate the glass panel back into position and hold whilst the
top clamp is secured with the 3 fixing screws (as detailed
above.
Ensuring the two magnets are in the correct position (see
above) then the top cover can be placed into position. This
component is purely decorative and is used to conceal the
top clamp fixing structure.

9
Connecting the Appliance to the Gas Supply
The gas supply can be connected to the appliance by a concealed fitting from the rear. In all installation conditions the gas
connection should be provided using 8mm (O/D) copper tubing. If the concealed installation method is chosen, there are
three optional entry points at the rear/side of the appliance. The relevant ‘knock-out’ entry point should be removed to
allow the gas supply to enter the appliance. No soldered joints should be used with the firebox of the appliance. The blind
grommet which is supplied in the standard fitting pack should be used to close up the knock out hole—simply cut a small
cross with a sharp knife in the centre of the grommet—this will then seal around the gas pipe to provide a tight seal.
Under no circumstances should this gas entry hole be left open and unsealed as this can result in flame reversal and can
cause damage to the appliance. Should this occur the warranty to this appliance will be rendered void.
Before connecting the gas supply to the appliance a gas soundness test should be performed to ensure that the existing
pipe work in the property is sound.
The burner tray can now be reinstalled into the firebox.
The gas connection should be made to the appliance by the 8mm restrictor isolation valve supplied with the appliance.
Install the ceramics and the glass panel to the appliance according to these instructions—see pages 8 and 15.
Test the operating pressure of the appliance by attaching a pressure gauge to the test point of the appliance. This
connection should take place when the appliance is OFF. Ensure that gas is turned on at the gas meter and purge the air
from the appliance by:
MAN AL CONTROL NITS: Rotating the control to the (IGN) position and push in. Every 10 seconds the knob should
be rotated back to the (OFF) position and back to the IGN position to generate the spark at
the electrode Check that the spark is being generated correctly at the pilot assembly.
Continue with this procedure until the air is purged from the appliance and the pilot is lit.
Once lit hold the valve pushed in for up to 30 seconds. Once the pilot is established and
secure turn the control knob anti-clockwise to the (HIGH) position. Allow the appliance to
run for a minimum period of 5 minutes. Next check that the inlet pressure to the appliance is
at 20 mbar ±1 mbar.
SLIDE CONTROL NITS: Push down the control lever fully to the (IGN) position and hold. The spark generator
should spark continuously, ensure the spark is being generated correctly at the pilot
assembly. Continue with this procedure until the air is purged from the appliance and the
pilot is lit. Once lit hold the lever pushed down for up to a further 30 seconds. Once the pilot
is established and secure allow the lever to rise to the (LOW) position then lift the lever to
the (HIGH) position. Allow the appliance to run for a minimum period of 5 minutes. Next
check that the inlet pressure to the appliance is 20 mbar ±1 mbar.
Check the operation of the appliance according to these instructions—see page 14.
Check the clearance of combustion products
SPILLAGE TEST: To check for satisfactory clearance of
products of combustion, close all doors and windows
and leave the appliance burning on HIGH for five
minutes. Insert a lit smoke match just into the gap a
the top centre of the fire. It is recommended that a
smoke match holder be used. All the smoke must be
drawn into the flue. If spillage occurs allow a further 5
minutes and repeat the test. If spillage still occurs turn
off the appliance and seek expert advise to expert
advice. If an extractor fan is situated in the room the
spillage test should be repeated with the fan running.
If there is a connecting room with an extractor fan the
test should be repeated with all the doors to that
room open and the extractor fan running.

10
Completing the Installation of the Appliance
Fit the cast trim (supplied in a separate carton) to the appliance with the fixings provided. The instructions for the
assembly is supplied with the trim. Due care and attention should be paid to the installation of the trim as any service call
due to incorrect placement of the trim assembly which causes difficulty in lighting the appliance will result in a callout
charge being made.
Should this appliance be installed with a conventional trim and fret then please note the following information:
Position the fret in front of the appliance ensuring that it meets the following requirements.
THE INSTALLER M ST INFORM THE C STOMER OF THE FOLLOWING TO COMPLETE THE INSTALLATION

HEALTH AND SAFETY NOTICE
This appliance uses fuel effect pieces manufactured from Refractory Ceramic Fibres (RCF). Care must be taken to avoid
excessive exposure to these materials as they may cause irritation to the eyes, skin, nose and throat. When Handling avoid
inhaling and contact with skin and eyes. It is recommended that disposable gloves are worn in addition to a facemask and
eye protection. After handling wash hands thoroughly and any other exposed parts which may have come in to contact with
the material.
If a vacuum cleaner is used to clean the fuel bed or areas around the appliance there fragments of the material may have
fallen it is recommended that it be of the type fitted with a HEPA filter.
Care should be taken when disposing of RCF materials. It is important to keep any dust to a minimum so it is recommended
that the fuel effect components are placed into a heavy duty plastic bag. The bag should be clearly labelled RCF WASTE.
These materials are not classified as hazardous waste and should be disposed of at a site approved for the disposal of
industrial waste.
Cleaning the Appliance
Fuel Bed
The fuel effect components supplied with this product are extremely fragile and must be handled with great care. The
ceramics in this appliance are not covered by the warranty due to their fragility. This includes the RCF fibre boards in the
fire box. These components will break or chip if not handled with the greatest of care.
Cleaning of these components should only be undertaken once the appliance is switched off and has been allowed to
cool for a minimum period of one hour. The components should be lifted carefully piece by piece from the appliance
and placed onto a dust sheet or similar. They can be brushed gently with a soft brush to remove any dust or deposits. If
you intend to use a vacuum cleaner then this should only be done once the loose deposits of soot etc have been
removed. Ensure that the moulded components are structurally sound and no significant part of the moulding has
broken away. If any component has broken then it should be replaced before using the appliance. Only the correct
replacement part as supplied by the manufacturer shall be used in this appliance. Do not add any additional
components to the fuel bed layout. It is important to note that small hairline cracks will appear in the surface of the
ceramics due to heat expansion and contraction—this is perfectly normal.
Pilot
The pilot to this appliance has a small aeration hole at its
base. sing a thin nozzle on a vacuum cleaner this area can
be cleaned to prevent a lint build up. This procedure
should only be undertaken when the appliance is off and
cold. If excessive lint is drawn in through this hole due to
infrequent cleaning then it may result in the appliance not
lighting or turning itself off automatically due to a
starvation of air at the pilot burner. This can often be
remedied by performing the cleaning operation detailed
here. If this procedure does not resolve such a problem
then the pilot assembly will need to be replaced. This must
involve the installation of the same part as supplied by the manufacturer. Excessive lint build up which results in
appliance operational problems is not covered by warranty. It is important to ensure this preventative maintenance is
performed regularly (once a month during the winter period).

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance is available with two operating methods, namely manual control and slide control. The following
instructions detail both methods of operation however the basic operation of the appliance involves the ignition of a
pilot burner (See page 7 for spillage monitoring details—ODS), then the control of the main burner with LOW and HIGH
settings.
This appliance has a naked flame and as with all heating appliances a fireguard should be used for the
protection of children, the elderly and infirm. The fireguard should conform to BS8423 : 2002 (Fireguards or
use with Gas Heating Appliances).
MAN AL CONTROL OPERATION
1. Push the control knob in fully then rotate anti-clockwise to the IGN symbol . The spark generator should cause
a spark at the pilot and the pilot should ignite. If the pilot does not light rotate the control knob to the OFF
position and retry. If the pilot does not light on the second attempt then return the control knob to the OFF
position and wait for 3 minutes.
2. Once the pilot is lit keep the control knob pushed in fully for up to 30 seconds.
3. Now release the control knob, the pilot should remain lit. If it goes out, wait for 3 minutes and return to step 1.
4. To turn the appliance to the LOW setting, turn the control knob anti-clockwise to the flame symbol.
5. To turn the appliance to the HIGH setting, turn the control knob anti-clockwise to the flame symbol.
6. It is also possible to adjust the control knob between the and the flame symbols to achieve a mid setting.
7. To turn the fire off, press the knob slightly and turn to the IGN symbol (for pilot only) or symbol to turn off.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Should the spark generator fail to provide a spark at the electrode it may be that a small amount of
soot has fallen from the fuel bed onto the pilot assembly, causing a short circuit. If this is the case, ensuring the
appliance is off and cold, this area can be cleaned with the thin nozzle from a vacuum cleaner.
It is also possible to light the pilot burner with a long taper whilst the control knob is being held in at the IGN symbol.
SLIDE CONTROL OPERATION
1. Push the control lever down fully to the IGN symbol . The spark generator should cause a repetitive spark at
the pilot and the pilot should ignite. If the pilot does not light after 10 seconds then lift the control lever upwards
to the OFF symbol and wait for 3 minutes.
2. Once the pilot is lit keep the control lever pushed down fully for up to 30 seconds.
3. Now slowly lift the control lever to the symbol, the pilot should remain lit and the burner will be in the LOW
setting. If it goes out, wait for 3 minutes and return to step 1.
4. To set the appliance to the HIGH setting, lift the control lever upwards to the flame symbol.
5 It is also possible to adjust the control knob between the and the flame symbols to achieve a mid setting.
6 To turn the fire off, lift the lever to the symbol to turn off.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Should the spark generator fail to provide a spark at the electrode it may be that a small amount of
soot has fallen from the fuel bed onto the pilot assembly, causing a short circuit. If this is the case, ensuring the
appliance is off and cold, this area can be cleaned with the thin nozzle from a vacuum cleaner. Alternatively check the
battery is in good condition—the battery access cover is at the base of the appliance just left of centre. (Slide models
only).
It is also possible to light the pilot burner with a long taper whilst the control knob is being held in at the IGN symbol .

are not fitting the part correctly. These instructions can also be followed to remove or reinstall the
fuel bed after cleaning. This is a procedure that can be undertaken by the customer as required and
the frequency will be depend upon use. See pages 8 and 9 for glass panel removal and installation.
