MANUAL CONTROL VER ION
The gas control is situated centrally behind the
front surround. Piezo ignition is used to light the
pilot, which can also be lit with a match. The
pilot is designed to remain permanently on,
enabling the fire to be lit by simply turning the
gas control on.
TO LIGHT THE PILOT
With the gas control knob in the off position,
fully depress and turn the control knob
anticlockwise to the pilot position (spark
symbol) until it clicks, check the pilot has lit
(repeat if the pilot does not light) and keep the
control knob pressed for at least ten seconds.
When the control knob is released the pilot
should remain alight. If the pilot does not
remain alight repeat the procedure. If when
established the pilot extinguishes for any
reason, the gas supply to the fire will
automatically be cut off by the flame
supervision device. Do not attempt to re-light
the pilot for at least two minutes.
TO LIGHT THE FIRE
With the pilot already lit as above, turn the gas
control knob anticlockwise to the high setting
(large flame symbol).

CLEANING
CLEANING THE FIREBOX INTERNAL BLACK
PAINTED SURFACES
To clean wait until the fire is cold and gently
dust any deposit on the surface using a dry soft
paint brush. During use, if a flame is in direct
contact with the painted surface it may cause
the black finish to change to light grey,
repositioning the top ceramic pieces will direct
the flame away from the rear and side panels
and if required the surface can be dusted with a
soft paint brush and re-sprayed with high
temperature paint. A thin layer of paint offers
the best heat resistance.
CLEANING THE EXTERNAL DECORATIVE
BLACK PAINTED SURFACES
To clean wait until the fire is cold and clean

CLEANING THE CORIAN SURROUND
For every day cleaning use a damp cloth and
detergent, wipe clean with a clean damp cloth
then a dry cloth. When this does not work use
Cif scouring cream taking care not to damage
the surrounding paintwork.
TO CLEAN / REPLACE THE CERAMICS
Carefully remove all loose ceramic pieces.
Carefully brush all pieces with a dry soft paint
brush then reassemble by carefully following
the installation instructions and diagrams in
sections G to J.
IMPORTANT NOTE
This fire is CE approved to the European
tandard EN 509 and is intended for decorative
purposes.
During use the ceramics may vary in colour and
as with all high temperature ceramics, cracks
may appear. This is normal and is due to the
initial shrinkage of the ceramics and will not
effect the fire’s performance.
The fire is fitted with an Oxygen Depletion
ensor (OD ) which continuously monitors the
atmosphere in the room turning off the gas
supply to the fire if combustion products are
detected. If the fire turns itself off, re-light the
fire following the lighting procedure. If the fire
repeatedly turns itself off a qualified service
engineer must be called to check the complete
installation.
PEBBLE VERSION
As pebbles are light coloured, any soot
discoloration may be more visible than on the
other available fuel effects.
A permanent air vent is not normally required
for this fire in the UK, but a 100 cm
2
vent must
still be fitted when used in outhern Ireland. It
is important that if an air vent has been fitted it
is periodically checked to ensure that the vent
remains free from obstruction at all times.
The chimney must be swept before the
appliance is installed and must be checked
regularly to ensure that all products of

To comply with European Regulations the
fireplace must have a non-combustible hearth
not less than 12mm thick. The edge of the
hearth which may be in the form of a raised lip,
must be a minimum of 50mm above the floor
level and must project at least 300mm in front
and 150mm either side of the front edge of the
burner.
However, in England, Wales, cotland, Northern
and outhern Ireland a hearth is not required if
the appliance is installed so that every part of
any flame or incandescent material will be at
least 225mm above the floor. On this appliance
the lowest flame is that of the pilot. This
equates to the builders opening being a
minimum height above the floor of 147mm.
When fitted with a hearth, this appliance
requires clearance at the bottom to allow
cooling ventilation to pass over the burner
controls. This means that the minimum
distance from the bottom of the surround to the
hearth must be 15mm which equates to the
builders opening being a minimum height of
32mm above the hearth.
The fire must be installed in a non-combustible
builders opening, and onto a non-combustible
wall. It must not be fitted on top of combustible
wall coverings. The builders opening must only
have an entrance through the fireplace opening
and an exit via the chimney/flue. All other
openings must be sealed using materials that
are non-combustible.
As with all heat generating appliances this
appliance will get hot and as such will affect any
wall coverings that are fitted close to the
appliance. Therefore, the wall on which the
appliance is fitted should not be covered with
wallpaper.
FLUE
The chimney/flue may be class 1 or 2 and must
have a height of at least 3m with an internal
diameter of not less than 125mm. Pre-cast
flues must have the equivalent cross sectional
area of a 125mm diameter flue pipe. Any
damper or register plate must be removed or
locked open.
The chimney/flue must be sound, free from
obstruction, have a positive updraught and
swept before the appliance is installed. A flue
test in accordance with national regulations
must be carried out.
A pre-cast concrete gas flue block system to B
1289 Part 1 and Building Regulations Part J can
be used.
GAS SUPPLY
The gas connection to the fire must be in 8mm
copper pipe not more than 1.5 metres long and
in accordance with National Regulations. Any
additional pipework must be of a diameter to
ensure adequate pressure at the fire. Note: The
end of the pipe must be covered to ensure that
debris cannot enter the pipe when being passed
through masonry.
An isolation valve (supplied) must be fitted
adjacent to the burner, which when closed,
allows the fire to be disconnected for
maintenance or repair in accordance with
National Regulations.
COMBUSTIBLE SHELF
A 75mm combustible wooden shelf may be
fitted to within 150mm of the top edge of the
fireplace opening, the depth of the shelf can be
increased by proportionally increasing the
height above the appliance.

INSTALLATION IN TIMBER FRAME BUILDINGS
PF MODELS
These instructions are to serve as guidance only,
since the construction of timber frame buildings
varies from site to site. It is important to note that
where removal of any part of the inner timber leaf
of the wall is involved, the structural integrity of
the wall must be maintained and the advice of
your local Building Control Department should be
sought. Guidelines should be sought from IGE/
UP/7 Gas Installations In Timber Frame Buildings.
If the property is under any form of N.H.B.C. cover,
it is advised that their advise on this modification
to the property should also be sought.
Either of the following 2 methods of installation
may be adapted for use in timber frame buildings
providing extra care is taken to protect
combustible materials from contact with hot
surfaces.
pecial attention must be paid to the location of
the studwork frames of the inner leaf and the
appliance positioned accordingly. Wires and pipes
that run within the inner timber leaf must also be
located and taken into account when positioning
the appliance.
METHOD 1 :: EXTENDED FIRE SURROUND OR
FALSE CHIMNEY BREAST
50 mm clearance must be provided from the
appliance case sides, rear and base, and 100mm
clearance from the appliance top to any
combustibles. These clearances must be
maintained by the presence of a purpose provided
cavity box.
The cavity box should be constructed from 12mm
upalux
®
or equivalent material and be fixed with
min. internal opening dimensions of 700mm high x
470mm wide x 232mm depth. A hole of 200 mm
diameter must be cut in the back of the cavity box
concentric with the flue duct when the appliance is
installed.
A 200mm diameter metal sleeve concentric with
the flue must be provided to pass through all the
combustible layers of the wall. This sleeve must
be a tight fit in the hole in the cavity box and must
not overhang the wall cavity by more than 5mm.
The vapour barrier on the back of the inner timber
leaf should be carefully cut and fixed to prevent
ingress of damp into the plasterboard layer.
The void around the appliance sides, back and flue
when positioned in the cavity box must be packed
with 50mm of Rockwool or equivalent material
and the top must be packed with 100mm of
Rockwool . NOTE: The Rockwool must not
overhang the wall cavity.
The fan unit must not be installed into any
combustible materials. If the outer layer of the
wall is combustible then the fan unit must be
surface mounted using the spacer (optional extra)
with a 12mm upalux
®
pad between the spacer
and the wall surface. The 200mm diameter sleeve
must also extend through the whole of the wall
and finish flush with the outer surface.
METHOD 2 :: WHEN SETTING THE APPLIANCE
INTO THE INNER TIMBER LEAF OF THE WALL
Find a suitable position between the wall panel
frames and carefully open up a hole to allow the
fixing of the cavity box referred to below, paying
careful attention to securing the damp proof
membrane back into position.
50 mm clearance must be provided from the
appliance case sides, rear and base, and 100mm
clearance from the appliance top to any
combustibles. These clearances must be
maintained by the presence of a purpose provided
cavity box.
The cavity box should be constructed from 12mm
upalux
®
or equivalent material and be fixed with
min. internal opening dimensions of 700mm high x
470mm wide x 232mm depth. This box should not
bridge the cavity but if this cannot be avoided then
a waterproof membrane must be placed between
the rear of the cavity box and the outer skin of the
dwelling. If this membrane is combustible or there
are any other combustible materials located
behind the cavity box then a hole of 200mm
diameter must be cut in the back of the cavity box
concentric with the flue duct when the appliance is
installed.
A 200mm diameter metal sleeve concentric with
the flue must be provided to pass through all the
combustible layers of the wall. This sleeve must
be a tight fit in the hole in the cavity box and must
not overhang the wall cavity by more than 5mm.
The vapour barrier on the back of the inner timber
leaf should be carefully cut and fixed to prevent
ingress of damp into the plasterboard layer.
The void around the appliance sides, back and flue
when positioned in the cavity box must be packed
