The PARAGON BF REMOTE GAS STOVE is available in Natural Gas (G20 @ 20 mbar) and L.P.G (G31 @ 37 mbar). The
markings (G20 for natural gas and G30 for L.P.G) on the packaging and the data badge specify the gas for which the
appliance has been factory set. Note: These appliances should only be used on the appropriate gas specified. They are
not suitable for conversion from one gas to the other.
This appliance must not be installed into a natural draught flue or chimney.
Failure to install appliance correctly could lead to prosecution.
In GB (Great Britain), the appliance must be installed and serviced by a competent person i.e. Gas Safe-registered, in accordance
with the GAS SAFETY (INSTALLATION AND USE) REGULATIONS, The Building Regulations (or The Building Regulations (Scotland) or
The Building Regulations (Northern Ireland)) and The Current I.E.E. Wiring Regulations, if appropriate.
In IE (Ireland), the appliance must be installed and serviced by a competent person and installed in accordance with the current
edition of I.S.813 Domestic Gas Installation, the current Building Regulations and the current ETCI rules for electrical installation,
if appropriate.
This appliance does not require a chimney, but must be installed against an outside wall.
It is important that the flue terminal is regularly checked and kept clear at all times.
If the terminal is accessible to people (i.e. less than 2m above a walkway, balcony etc.) the terminal guard must be fitted
to prevent access to the flue outlet, which becomes hot when the fire is in use.
All combustible material must be removed from behind the fire and fire trim.
As the PARAGON BF REMOTE GAS STOVE is a room sealed appliance (i.e. air for the combustion process is taken from
outside the room) no purpose built ventilation is requires.
The PARAGON BF REMOTE GAS STOVE is designed and tested to meet the requirements of the European Standard EN
613.

6 LT7613 ISS1
The PARAGON BF REMOTE GAS STOVE is battery operated; therefore no mains electrical supply is required. Power to the
appliance is provided by 6 high power alkaline 1.5V batteries (AA size) (a spare set of 6 AA batteries is supplied with
the appliance); these batteries can be changed to Nickel Metal Hydride rechargeable batteries providing they have a
minimum capacity of 2200 mAh. A set of 6 high power alkaline 1.5V batteries (AA size) would give in the order of 200
-380 operations while 6 rechargeable batteries when fully charged would give approximately 200-300 operations.
These figures are only given for guidance and may vary depending on how the appliance is used and the battery
manufacturer and quality.
Using the standby facility when the appliance is switched off for short periods can extend battery life. The standby
facility switches off the mains gas supply to the appliance but the pilot remains alight.
An audible repeated bleep warning indicates that the appliance batteries need changing or charging (if rechargeable
batteries have been used).
Important: Batteries should be changed or recharged as soon as possible as the appliance will not light if the battery
power gets too low.
Although the PARAGON BF REMOTE GAS STOVE is fitted with a glass front which acts as a dress guard it is strongly
recommended that a fireguard should be used for the protection of children, the elderly or infirm. Fireguards
should conform to B. S. 6539 (1984) (Fireguards for use with solid fuel appliance).
The slot located at the top of the PARAGON BF REMOTE GAS STOVE are the hot air outlets and as such must not
be obstructed in any way (particularly by clothes or other combustibles). In addition the base of the appliance
should not be obstructed by such items as this may adversely affect the performance of the appliance.
Care should be taken to prevent any damage being caused to surrounding soft furnishings or decoration. Many
wall coverings may become discoloured if placed too close to the appliance, it is strongly recommended that any
proposed wall covering intended for use immediately above the appliance should be tested in the hottest position
(immediately above) first. Run the fire on high over a few days
All combustible material must be removed from behind the fire.
The first time you light your new appliance a smell may occur due to its new condition. This is quite normal and
will soon disappear after a few hours use at maximum setting (open a window until the smell disappears).
The appliance MUST NOT be used if the glass panel is not correctly fitted or if this panel is cracked or broken.
Any debris should be cleaned from the appliance. A vacuum cleaner can be used but only after all the loose coals
have been removed.
Prior to removing or cleaning the fuel bed components refer to the ‘Health and Safety Notice’ located on page
3 of this booklet.
The appliance should be serviced annually by a competent person i.e. a GAS SAFE registered engineer in
accordance with these instructions.
The glass or any part of the appliance MUST NOT be cleaned or wiped whilst the appliance is HOT, to do so could
be dangerous and may damage the paintwork of the appliance.

www.charltonandjenrick.co.uk 7 LT7613 ISS1
SECTION TWO Introduction
The PARAGON BF REMOTE GAS STOVE is a freestanding room sealed live fuel-effect gas appliance designed
for use in locations that do not have a conventional chimney. The appliance must be installed against an
outside wall because the air to support combustion is taken from the outside and the products of combustion
are expelled to the outside.
The appliance incorporates a safety device in the form of a FLAME SUPERVISION DEVICE, which constantly
monitors the flame and will cause the gas to be switched off if the flames are extinguished for any reason.
THIS DEVICE MUST NOT BE OVERRIDDEN. If this situation occurs on a regular basis have the appliance checked
by a qualified engineer. The problem may be due to a blocked or restricted flue.
Before removing the glass or fuel bed for cleaning the fire should be turned off, and left to cool down.
NOTE: In use some discoloration of the components will take place in the combustion box, this is normal, but
can be kept to a minimum if the fuel bed is placed correctly (i.e. after cleaning). See Section 4.
As with all heating appliances certain areas (Working Surfaces) become very hot when the appliance is in use.
With this appliance all surfaces are considered working surfaces. No item should be place on top on the
appliance and care should be exercised when placing items close by.
NOTE: DURING NORMAL USE WATER DROPLETS MAY BE SEEN UNDERNEATH THE
APPLIANCE
This is perfectly normal and the water will evaporate once the fire is at operating temperature.
SECTION THREE Operating the Appliance
Do not use this appliance without the glass panel fitted, or if this panel is cracked or broken.
WARNING: If the burner or pilot is extinguished for any reason, do not attempt to re-light
the pilot for at least three minutes.
Before attempting to operate the appliance check that
nothing has been placed in front of the appliance that may
interfere with the remote sensor operation.
To light the appliance using the remote hand set:
A. Point the remote control hand set in the direction of the
appliance and simultaneously press the buttons marked ‘
off’ and ‘standby’. Continue to hold in these two
buttons until a ‘bleep’ is heard (approximately 2-3 sec.)
and then release these buttons. The appliance will
automatically go through the ignition sequence and the
pilot should ignite. Once the pilot is alight the appliance
will automatically go to the high setting (approximately
20-25sec). If the ignitor stops sparking and the pilot fails
to light, repeat this procedure.

8 LT7613 ISS1
B. The appliance can be adjusted up or down by pressing the appropriate button ' ' (low setting) or ‘ ' (high
setting).There are 5 heat settings and the fire will give a double bleep when the maximum or minimum heat
setting is reached. To switch off the appliance press the OFF ' ' button or if the appliance is to be switch off
for a short period it is recommended that the ‘standby’ button be used. This switches the main burner off but
leaves the pilot on and will extend battery life.
C. The appliance can be switched off without using the hand set by removing the appliance batteries. When the
batteries are removed there will be a delay (up to 3minutes) after which double bleeps may be heard and
shortly after the appliance will extinguish. Ensure that the battery is reconnected once the fire has been
extinguished. The appliance cannot be operated without the use of the handset. If the fire fails to light or
extinguishes for any reason, it will be necessary to re-set the fire. This can be done by pressing the off
button then following the normal lighting procedure.
NOTE: If the fire is extinguished for any reason wait 3 minutes before
relighting.
Low Battery Indication (Hand Set)
If while pressing any of the buttons on the remote hand set the low battery indicator
lamp either stops flashing or appreciably slows then the battery should be changed.
To Replace Batteries In Hand SET (AAA 1.5V X2)
Remove the cover from the rear of the handset and fit replacement batteries.
LOW BATTERY INDICATION (APPLIANCE)
If you hear a repeated ‘bleep’ sound come from the appliance this indicates the appliance
battery pack is low and should be changed as soon as possible. The appliance will continue to
work normally for a short period but if the warning is ignored you may experience difficulty
lighting the appliance or the appliance may automatically switch off for no apparent reason.
NOTE: The appliance cannot be used when the battery is completely flat.
To replace appliance batteries (6 high power alkaline AA 1.5V)
(Rechargeable batteries can be used providing they are a nickel metal hydride type
1.5V AA with a minimum capacity of 2200mAh).
A. The battery power pack or holder is located at the left hand side of the burner; carefully
slide the battery holder forward and replace the six high power alkaline AA batteries as a complete set or
recharge as appropriate. WARNING, batteries will overheat if fitted incorrectly, when fitting the batteries
ensure that they are fitted as per the marking on the rear of the holder (i.e. minus of battery against spring).
Important: Ensure that the battery pack is placed on the base of the appliance to the left hand side of the
burner

SECTION FOUR Cleaning & Fuel Bed Laying
Warning: -Before you clean any part of the appliance ensure that the appliance is switched off and cool.
CLEANING: BLACK PAINTED SURFACES
These surfaces should be dusted regularly and any marks removed with a soft cloth.
Abrasive or chemical cleaner should never be used.
CLEANING: GLASS PANEL
From time to time it may be necessary to clean the glass panel.
We recommend you use a Ceramic Hob Cleaner (brands such as HOB BRITE and VITRO CLEAN have been found to be
acceptable) these are available from most leading Supermarkets.
Remove the glass panel as follows:
Turn the door handle 90° counter clockwise and open the door
Remove the two side glass brackets with the provided spanner.
While supporting the glass panel, remove the 2 nuts securing the bottom of the glass frame, pull the glass
frame forwards at the bottom and gently pull downwards.
Lay the glass panel down on a flat working surface on top of an old opened newspaper with the side to be
cleaned uppermost.
Follow the Instructions on the Hob Cleaner Bottle.
On stubborn stains (where the appliance has been used for a long period without the glass panel being cleaned), use
a new Brillo Pad well wetted with the Hob cleaner applied directly to it. Ensure all the residue of the cleaner are
removed with a damp cloth and the glass panel is completely dry before fitting to the appliance.

10 LT7613 ISS1
Note: - If the fuel bed has not been placed correctly, causing the gas flame to contact the glass this may result in
glass staining that cannot be removed by cleaning.
Re-assemble in reverse order ensuring the seal is compressed evenly at the top and bottom
Close the door and secure with the handle
CLEANING AND REPLACING Fuel Bed Parts
Important: - Refer to the ‘Health & Safety Notice located on page 3 of this booklet before cleaning or replacing
any refractory material.
Use only the Fuel Bed part provided NO OTHER FUEL BED PARTS SHOULD BE ADDED to the appliance
If any Fuel Bed Parts are broken then they must be replaced before the appliance is used.
The fuel bed parts are delicate and should be handled with great care.
The loose part should be removed for cleaning. They can be brushed very gently with a soft brush to remove dust or
any deposits.
A vacuum cleaner may only be used after all the loose coals have been removed.
NOTE: During operation some sooting will be evident on the fuel bed whether running on the high or low setting.
This may be reduced by running on the opposite setting for 15 minutes prior to switching the fire off i.e. if the fire
is running on high then turn to low for 15 minutes before turning off. This will not eliminate all soot but helps
keep it to a minimum.

Care must be taken to prevent any damage being caused to surrounding soft furnishing or decoration, e.g.
wall coverings may become discoloured if placed too close to the appliance.

www.charltonandjenrick.co.uk 17 LT7613 ISS1
SECTION EIGHT Siting the Appliance
GENERAL REQUIREMENTS
*To minimise the risk of cracking due to heat expansion the use of a 3 –piece back panel is recommended*
The back panel of the surround must have a cut-out within the maximum and minimum dimensions as shown.
Ensure that gas supply is suitably sited.
A non-combustible hearth must be provided beneath the appliance if the appliance. The hearth must have a
minimum thickness of 12mm and the perimeter 50mm above floor level. The hearth must extend 150mm either
side of the appliance and must project forward a minimum of 100mm in front of the appliance.
The minimum clearance from the hearth (base of appliance) to the underside of a combustible shelf should be
determined using the shelf chart.
Minimum width between vertical sides of combustible surround should not be less than 800 mm provided fire is
central to the surround and sides do not project more than 150 mm. When vertical side forward projection is
increased by 12.5 mm add 50 mm to inside width of surround.
Check with the supplier or manufacturer that the surround meets 1500C minimum rating (attention should
especially be given to man made materials such as resin).
When installing in a timber framed dwelling reference must be made to the specific installation requirements
stated in Section 10 Installing The Appliance In Timber Framed Dwelling.
*Please note - Appropriate measures should be taken when installing into a working flue system i.e. out through
an existing chimney *
The flue and air duct length must be between 350mm to 970mm. The fire is supplied with 2 standard lengths of
535mm. The flue and air duct must not be adapted in anyway and must be in one continuous length. To install
the appliance with the maximum flue lengths you will need to order TWO additional 1 meter lengths
The flue outlet must terminate on a suitable outside wall.
The minimum flue terminal clearances, which must be maintained, are as shown below.
A. Directly below an openable window or other opening. E.g. air brick 300mm
B. Below gutters, soil pipes or drain pipes 300mm
C. Below eaves 300mm
D. Below balconies or car port roofs 600mm
E. From vertical drain pipes and soil pipes 75mm
F. From internal and external corners 300mm
G. Above ground, roof or balcony level 370mm
H. From a surface facing the terminal 600mm
I. From a terminal facing the terminal 1200mm
J. From an opening in a car port into a dwelling e.g. door, window, etc 1200mm
K. Vertically from a terminal on the same wall 1500mm
L. Horizontally from a terminal on the same wall 300mm

18 LT7613 ISS1
Note: These dimensions are taken from the center of the circular flue outlet.
Distances from NON-combustible materials:
The stove can be recessed in a suitable sized non-combustible fireplace but a permanent free air gap of at least 50mm
must be left around the sides and top of the stove to obtain reasonable heat output and for access to the stove for
removal and maintenance. A clearance of 150mm will give a better heat output
When installing in a timber framed dwelling reference must be made to the specific installation requirements stated
in Section 10 Installing the Appliance in Timber Framed Dwelling).
In addition it is strongly recommended that any furniture or other combustible materials are kept at least 900mm clear
from the front of the stove.
Due to the fact that combustible shelves, timber fireplaces and beams have potentially thousands of possible
configurations in conjunction with stoves outset or inserted partially or fully into chambers, it is not possible to give
firm guidance on dimensions to these features. As a guideline, materials that are in ‘line of sight’ to the stove are more
likely to overheat due to direct radiation from the stove body than materials that are not in ‘line of sight’ (e.g. with
stove fully inside a chamber). Materials above the stove are more likely to overheat than materials alongside or below.
A guideline limiting temperature for solid timber (not surface finishes) is approximately 80-85 degrees C with a normal
ambient room temperature. Temperatures of combustible materials can be substantially lowered with a simple heat
shield constructed of a non-combustible material and small air gap between the shield and combustible material.
Clearance to Shelf
Minimum clearance from hearth to underside of combustible shelf should be 740mm provided the shelf depth is
75mm (3”). This gives a minimum clearance above the appliance of 150mm. For a shelf of 150mm (6”) the minimum
height above the hearth must be 800mm. This will give a minimum clearance above the appliance of 220mm. For
other depths refer to the shelf chart.

www.charltonandjenrick.co.uk 19 LT7613 ISS1
Clearance to Sides of Fire
Minimum width between vertical sides of combustible surround and the sides of the stove should not be less than
300mm provided fire is central to the surround and sides do not project more than 50mm. When vertical side forward
projection is increased by 12.5 mm add 50 mm to inside width of surround.
THERE ARE TWO TYPES OF INSTALLATION
With a dummy chimneybreast constructed forward into the room to accommodate the stove creating an
inglenook feature. This depth can be reduced if a deep rebated surround is also used the rebate depth can be
deducted from the dummy breast dept.
Any surround used must meet the specification stated later in this section. Prior to installing the appliance all
combustible materials must be removed from the rear faces as described in Section 10.

20 LT7613 ISS1
SECTION NINE To Install the Appliance
INSTALLING THE APPLIANCE ONTO CAVITY WALL (When installing in a timber framed dwelling
reference must be made to the specific installation requirements stated later in this Section Installing The Appliance
In Timber Framed Dwelling’).
Ensure it is a suitable outside wall constructed of non-combustible materials and that the flue position meets the
requirements previously described in Section 8.
Mark a horizontal line on the wall at the intended
hearth surface or appliance base height. The skirting
board must be cut away from behind the fire.
Mark a vertical line on the wall at the intended
centre of he appliance up from the horizontal base
line for a height of approximately 575mm.
Mark three short horizontal lines so they cross the
centre line, one at 52mm one at 125mm and one at
510mm above hearth level line. These are the
centre points for the gas entry, air duct and flue
holes.
If the gas supply is taken from outside at the 52mm
vertical line mark the position for the gas position 180mm left of the centre line.
Using a long masonry drill, make two pilot holes completely through the wall, ensure the holes are drilled
accurately at the centres and square to the wall both horizontally and vertically at the cross points previously
marked. If the gas supply is from outside drill the third hole large enough to accommodate the size sleeve you
intend to use.
Using 125mm (5”) core drill, cut two holes following the pilot holes, drill from the outside all the way through the
cavity.
Remove any cavity insulation from the core holes and for a further 100mm into the cavity gap.
Pack “Rockwool” around the opening into the cavity for a depth of 100mm.
Lay the hearth if required so that it is positioned correctly to the horizontal line and central to the vertical line.
Position and fix the back panel and surround if required.
Position the stove against the wall or back panel in its final position.
Pass a tape measure through the core-drilled holes and record the distance from the back of the spigots to the
surface of the outside wall. Increase both the recorded distances by 15mm each, and cut two lengths from the
100mm diameter pipes ensuring they are cut square and free from burs.
Position and seal the pipes to their respective spigots on the rear of the appliance (use flue seal or fire cement to
