2.2.2. Lighting Procedure (Remote Control)
In order to be able to use the remote control, to adjust the gas rate of the appliance to the
desired level, the pilot must first be lit manually. This is described above in 2.2.1 LIGHTING
PROCEDURE, MANUAL CONTROL and repeated here, steps 1,2 & 3. Once the pilot is established,
the remote control handset is operational, as well as the manual controls on the valve.
1. From the OFF position, ‘¦’ indicated in
FIGURE 3, push the IGNITION KNOB in
turn it anticlockwise to the pilot flame
position, as shown in FIGURE 3. During
this process, the spark ignition will have
operated and lit the pilot flame. On
ignition of the pilot flame, continue to
depress the ignition knob for a further 15
- 20 seconds, then slowly release. The
pilot flame should stay alight. If the flame
goes out repeat the procedure above to
establish the pilot.
NOTE: No attempt should be
made to relight the fire for at
least 3 minutes after the pilot
flame has been extinguished
either intentionally or
unintentionally.
2. Once the Pilot is established, turn the
IGNITION KNOB further anticlockwise to
the main burner FULL RATE position, as
shown in FIGURE 4.
3. From this point onwards, the handset
can be used to adjust the gas rate of the
appliance to the desired level between
the pre-set high and low positions.
4. Using the HANDSET, (as shown in
FIGURE 7) By pressing the top and
small buttons together (to increase the
gas rate) and the lower button only (to
decrease the gas rate) the valve can be
manipulated to select the desired gas
rate between maximum and minimum.
By pressing the larger buttons in short
bursts you will be able to adjust the gas
rate in small steps.
5. To turn the fire off, continuously press
the lower big button, until the flame dies
down and clicks can be heard from the
valve. Release the button as soon as the
clicks are heard. The fire is now in ‘pilot
only’ position, as shown in FIGURE 3.
6. The fire can safely be left in this position
at all times, however to prevent
unauthorised or accidental use (say by
children) it is recommended to turn the
IGNITION KNOB to the pilot flame
position by turning it 90 degrees
clockwise. To turn the pilot off, turn the
IGNITION KNOB fully clockwise.
NOTE: The clicking sound
made by the valve, when using
the remote handset, is the
operation of the valve clutch.
It indicates either the maximum
or minimum rotation of the gas
rate adjustment knob has been
reached.
