1.0 I PORTANT NOTES
© 2013 Focal Point Fires plc.

This appliance MUST NOT be installed into a room containing a bath or shower, or where steam may be present. The fire has been
designed to fit into a builders’ opening or fireplace conforming to BS 1251 (and meeting certain dimensional requirements), or a suit-
able flue box complying with the constructional requirements of BS 715. The flue box must be installed onto a suitable non-combustible
insulating surface at least 12mm thick, covering the entire base area of the box. The flue must have an effective height of at least three
metres, as measured from the hearth to the top of the flue. Any flue damper plates or restrictors should be removed and no other
restriction fitted to the flue. Where removal is not practical, the restriction must be fixed in the fully open position.
A natural draught flue system is required, and if previously used for solid fuel or oil burning, the flue and chimney must be swept prior
to appliance installation. The flue must be checked before installation by using a smoke pellet or similar to ensure proper draw and that
leakage is not evident at any joints. Repair and re-test as necessary before the appliance is installed. The flue must be connected to only
one fireplace, and the flue must not vent more than one appliance (i.e. not shared with a gas back boiler). There must be no opening in
the flue apart from the one that the appliance is installed into, and the one venting the gases into the air. A suitable terminal may be fit-
ted, such as class GC1, as regulations allow.
Radiant models only: This appliance has been tested for use in a pre-cast block flue complying with BS 1289. In accordance with BS
1289 part 1, pre-cast flues built with directly plastered faces (front or rear) are not correctly installed as to ensure proper operation
with any type of gas fire. In some instances of this flue construction, temperature cracking of the surface plaster may occur through no
fault of the appliance. An air gap or some form of insulation material should be installed to prevent normal flue temperatures from dam-
aging wall surfaces. Pre-cast flues must be checked for mortar fangs and correct installation of joints, flue sections in loft space and ter-
minals.
These appliances have been tested for use with circular flues of a minimum internal diameter of 125mm. This appliance is suitable for
use with a “lightweight” surround and back panel of 150OC minimum rating.
The fireplace opening should be inspected and repairs made where necessary. Any chair brick or fireback may be left in situ, providing
that the dimensional requirements for debris collection space and spigot clearances are met. See figure 1.
All models : This appliance requires a natural draught flue system which may be one of the following;
225mm x 225mm (9in x 9in) brick or stone.
125mm (5in) minimum diameter lined brick or stone.
125mm (5in) minimum diameter twin wall flue conforming to BS 715.
Pre-cast block flue complying with BS 1289 (Radiant models only).

Any existing under grate draught device must be sealed off. The opening wall must be non-combustible.
The appliance requires a hearth with non-combustible surface of at least 12mm thick. The top surface must be at least 50mm above the
surrounding floor level, or be surrounded by a raised edge or fender 50mm high.
To enable the products of combustion to be cleared properly up the flue, the outlet at the back of the appliance must have a 50mm min-
imum clearance between it and the back wall of the opening or any other obstruction. The area immediately above the outlet must form
a smooth path into the flue.
Any type of fire surround used with this appliance must be adequately sealed to the wall and floor.
A combustible shelf may be fixed to the wall above the fire, providing that it complies with the dimensions given below.
A non-combustible shelf may be fitted to within 10mm of the top edge of the fireframe. Combustible materials, such as wood, may be
fitted to within 100mm of either side of the fireplace opening, providing the forward projection does not exceed 100mm. Any com-
bustible side walls must be at least 500mm to the side of the radiant heat source. As with all heating appliances, any decorations, soft
furnishings, and wall coverings (i.e. flock, blown vinyl and embossed paper) positioned too close to the appliance may discolour or scorch.
Radiant models have a mounting depth of 180mm. In accordance with BS 5871 part 2, minimum debris collection volumes are required

No purpose provided ventilation is normally required for this appliance. The requirements of other appliances operating in the
same room or space must be taken into consideration when assessing ventilation. If spillage is detected when commissioning the appli-
ance, then amongst other problems there may be insufficient natural ventilation for correct operation of the flue. If the appliance does
not spill with the windows open, but spillage is detected with the windows closed, this demonstrates a lack of natural ventilation. If
spillage is still detected with the windows open, the flue is at fault. Installation of an air brick is the best solution to lack of ventilation.
Any ventilation fitted must comply with BS 5871 part 2 and BS 5440 part 2. Vents fitted under or within the immediate vicinity of the
appliance must not be used as adverse effects to the operation of the ODS may occur. Spillage detected during commissioning is almost
always a result of poor flue performance that cannot be corrected by any amount of ventilation. For Republic of Ireland ventilation may
be required, see IS 813, ICP3, IS 327, and any other rules in force.
This appliance can be fitted into a number of proprietary flue boxes
provided that the minimum dimensions shown in figure 2 are com-
plied with.
Constructional Note: The frame of the fire, any back panel or
other infill panels, and the flue box must be sealed together so that
there is no possibility of leakage between them. Adequate clear-
ances to combustible materials (e.g. false chimney breast construc-
tion) must be maintained.
The manufacturers’ instructions for fitting the prefabri-
cated box shall be complied with at all times. To fit the fire
using the cable fixing kit, some minor adaption may be necessary
for certain flue boxes. A check should be made to ensure the fire-
box does not obscure the flue box outlet. The firebox, base of the
flue box, and hearth below may be drilled to allow plugs and screws
to secure installation. It is important that the sealing requirements
of the appliance are met at all times and that the flue box is well
sealed to any back or infill panel. N te: The DEPTH dimension is
inclusive of any back or infill panel.
Stand the carton the right way up, cut the strapping bands and remove the top endcap. Read all the instructions before continuing to unpack
or install this appliance.
Remove the box containing the firefront, and the bags containing the ceramic components. Remove the cardboard packing pieces, and any other
bags or boxes containing fittings or other parts. When all loose parts have been removed, the outer sleeve may be lifted off to reveal the appli-
ance. Check that the components supplied correlate with the component checklist given in section 7.1. Please dispose of all the packaging mate-
rials at your local recycling centre.

Note: Ensure that the gas supply is isolated before commencing
installation of the appliance.
The fireplace opening and environment must be in compliance with specifica-
tions laid down in the appropriate sections of these instructions.
Remove the appliance from it’s carton as described previously and stand upon
a dust sheet or similar. Place the decorative frame, coals, ceramics and fixings
safely to one side. Remove the burner from the assembly by removing the
retaining screws.
Slide control models : Remove the slide control linkage connecting screw.
The tray is now free, and may be lifted away.
RADIANT PANELS (Radiant models only): The three radiant panels may now be fixed
inside the firebox. Select the plain or patterned side of each panel and insert as follows;
Lay the firebox on it’s back. Lay the tapered panel onto the rear face of the firebox.
The side panels should be fitted by inserting their front edges into the pre-fitted retaining brack-
ets on the front face of the firebox. Gently align the side panels with the side of the firebox as
shown in figure 3, over the top of the back panel already in place.
Make sure that the side panels are pushed up firmly to the roof of the firebox, and back firmly
to retain the tapered panel. Make small adjustments to line up the mortar lines if required. Secure
the side panels using the small ‘L’ shaped brackets and screws provided (figure 4). The screws
should locate into the pre-punched holes in the sides of the firebox.
SUPPLY PIPE ENTRY ( All models): nockout holes are provided in the rear and sides of
the firebox for use where concealed pipework is required. Where necessary,
knock out the appropriate hole with a sharp tap from a hammer, and fit the
rubber grommet supplied. A small incision can now be made in the rubber to
slip snugly around the outside of the pipe and sleeving. Do not install or use
the appliance without the seal in place. If a hole is inadvertently opened,
reseal with an intact grommet. Failure to fit the seal correctly will cause flue
suction to act upon the area under the burner, resulting in poor performance
and intermittent cutting out of the burner.
Slide controls models : The control knob is supplied as a loose part. Insert
the control knob into the hole in the top of the slide control spindle (Figure
5). Secure the control knob in position using the M4 nyloc nut provided.
SPIGOT RESTRICTOR : If installing the fire into a Class 1 or good Class
2 flue, simply bend up (stitch bend join) the spigot restrictor into position in
the flue outlet of the fire as shown in figure 6 and figure 7.
You UST remove (or bend down fully) the spigot restrictor and
re-test if the appliance fails a spillage test during commissioning.
SEALING STRIPS : Apply the self adhesive sealing strips to the back of
the fireframe as shown in figure 7 to give a continuous seal.

Before installing the fire, check the flue using a smoke pellet. All of the smoke should travel up the flue and exit correctly from the ter-
minal. If problems are found, DO NOT fit the fire until corrective action is completed. Protect the decorative hearth whilst pushing the
firebox in and out of the opening. Part of the packaging will make an ideal hearth saver pad. Before running the gas supply into the open-
ing, offer up the firebox to the fireplace to check the fit is good. Angle the firebox or adjust the spigot outlet as described in part 8.0 of
these instructions. Ensure that it slides in correctly, the sealing face sits flat and square to the wall or infill panel, and that the base is firm
on the floor of the opening as no leaks are permissible here. At this stage it is essential to ensure that the spigot outlet of the fire is
not restricted in any way. Remove the firebox and take any necessary measurements before making good and preparing for final
installation.
CABLE FIXING : For fixing of the fire by the cable method, see the relevant section. The cable fixing locations should be marked on
the back of the opening and the holes drilled. Fit the wall plugs and eyebolts to these holes.
SCREW FIXING : For fixing by screw, mark and drill the fireframe or base, and the relevant points in the opening or on the wall. wall
plugs will again be required. Pre-punched holes are not provided for this purpose to allow you to choose the optimum positions.
GAS SUPPLY : Following preparation for the fixing method, the concealed gas supply, where required, can now be put into place. Refer
to the gas supply section for suggested pipe routes. The ends of the sleeving in which the gas pipe is run should be sealed. The ends of
the 8mm supply pipe should be temporarily sealed to prevent the ingress of debris during fixing.
PLEASE NOTE: Ensure fire can be removed for ease of servicing and not siliconed.
When the opening is ready for installation of the fire, the gas supply may be routed as per the examples shown in figure 9.
IMPORTANT - Wherever a concealed connection is made a rubber grommet must be used to seal the firebox.
The gas pipe must be suitably protected where it passes through fireplace openings. Any sleeving should be sealed to the pipe at its ends.
This appliance is fitted with an inlet restrictor elbow. Using 8mm diameter pipe, connect the appliance to the gas supply point. The appli-
ance must be fitted with rigid or semi-rigid pipe of 8mm external diameter. The appliance is factory fitted with an inlet restrictor elbow.
Use a minimum length of 8mm pipe, less than 1.5m where possible, as a long run of pipe may cause an unacceptable drop in the supply
pressure.The open end of the supply pipe should be sealed temporarily during the installation of the firebox to prevent the ingress of
dirt and dust. Soldered joints are not recommended.
Radiant models only:
To fit the firebox, first check the firebox fits correctly into the opening. For openings
between 545mm and 565mm in height it will be necessary to insert the upper part
of the firebox first, followed by the lower as shown in figure 10.
If is is still not possible to fit the firebox into the opening then remove the outlet
deflector screws using a screwdriver, bend the outlet deflector down and partly
insert the firebox. Now push the outlet deflector back up to the original
position under the lip of the fireplace opening and secure with the screws.
The fire is designed to operate correctly with the spigot raised and screwed in its
original position and spillage problems may arise by not realigning correctly once fit-
ted.Secure the firebox by drilling and screwing down the frame or base of the fire-
box, or use the cable fixing method.

All models: Drill four holes using a 8mm
masonry bit to a depth of 42mm in the posi-
tions shown in figure 10. If the fireplace con-
figuration does not allow the exact layout
given, the eyebolts should be positioned as
close to the correct layout as possible.
Before finally fitting cables, ensure the self
adhesive sealing strips are in position on the
back of the appliance frame. The fireframe
must be sealed evenly to the fireplace opening
all around the periphery.
Thread the tensioning cables through the
holes in the top of the firebox, then the eye-
lets, and finally through the lower holes in the
back of the firebox, as shown in figure 12.
Note : The burner must be removed as per relevant section to gain access to the cable adjusters.
Push the appliance back into the fireplace, centralise, and pull the loose tensioning cables through the
holes into the firebox. You may need to temporarily adjust the outlet deflector at this point as
described in section 8.0 of these instructions. Thread the tensioner bolts onto the cables, with the
nuts screwed down close to the tensioner head. Slide the screwed nipple onto the cable, pull cable
tight, and tighten nipple.
The tension of the cable may now be adjusted by using a suitable spanner on the tensioner nuts to
pull the appliance tightly against the fireplace opening. Visually inspect the seal and reseat if necessary.
Do not cut off excess cable. Surplus cable must not be cut off, as it will be impossible to refit the fire after servicing. Coil up the surplus
cable, and locate at rear of firebox as shown in figure 13. If running a concealed gas supply, ensure grommets are secure around incom-
ing pipes.
Important Note: Check the thermocouple nut connection into the rear of the valve is secure.
Temporarily fit the burner unit and ensure a suitable gas route can be achieved. Purge the gas supply thoroughly to remove air and
dirt/debris before connection. Disconnect the inlet restrictor elbow from the inlet pipe.
Connect the previously installed gas supply to inlet restrictor elbow. Place the burner unit into the firebox making sure that the rear
lugs locate properly on to the ledge in the firebox. Fit the two securing screws through the burner legs to secure the assembly. Re-fit
the restrictor elbow to the inlet pipe of the appliance.
Please see the relevant section of the user instructions.
All models : Remove all protective film and packaging material before fitting.
One-piece frame models : The appliance is supplied with a one piece decorative frame that
is attached to the front of the firebox with the magnets provided. Position the firefront in front
of the burner.
Three-piece frame models : The clip-on frame pieces should be hooked over the outer
edges of the fireframe, (figure 14), and pushed firmly home. The sides should be fixed first, fol-
lowed by the top bar, which overlaps the sides. Push firmly home.
I PORTANT : Due to the possibility of sharp edges, care should be taken when
handling the three-piece frame components. The use of protective gloves is strong-
ly recommended.
Cast frame models : Remove the decorative frame from it’s protective packaging. The frame is retained onto the firebox with a mount-
ing bracket at the top of the frame and three magnets on each leg of the frame.
Turn on and test the gas supply up to the fire for any leaks, in accordance with current edition of BS6891.
When the appliance is first used, protective oils coating the firebox may burn off. It is advisable to ventilate the room during this period
for at least one hour.

The pilot is visible through the viewing hole which is located at the lower left hand side of the fuel
bed. The fire features a ‘twin spark’ ignition system to aid lighting, Push the control knob in fully
and turn anti-clockwise through both of the SPAR positions, keeping fully depressed, hold there
for a few seconds. If the fire has not been used for some time, hold the knob in this position for
longer, to allow any air in the pipes to be purged. Continue turning anti-clockwise through the
spark clicks to the nine o’clock position, ensuring the pilot has lit. If not, return the knob clock-
wise, and repeat.
When the pilot lights after one of the two sparks, keep the knob depressed in the nine o’clock
position for approximately ten seconds. Now release the knob and the pilot should stay alight. If
the pilot is extinguished during use, wait three minutes before repeating the ignition procedure. To
achieve the HIGH setting, push the control knob in slightly and continue turning anti-clockwise to
the high position. The main burner should light after a few seconds. To decrease the setting to LOW, push the knob in slightly and turn
the control knob clockwise to the low setting. To turn to the pilot only position from the HIGH or LOW positions, press the control
knob in, and return to the nine o’clock position and release. To turn the fire OFF, keep the knob pressed in, return to the off position
and release.
The pilot is visible through the left hand side of the front ceramic strip. Rotate the coals or pebbles for
good viewing.
Push the slide control knob fully downwards to the SPAR position, and hold there for a few seconds,
until the pilot light stays on. When the pilot light has established, release the slide control knob and it
will return to the LOW flame setting. If the pilot is extinguished during use, wait three minutes before
repeating the ignition procedure.
To achieve the HIGH setting, move the slide control knob upwards to the HIGH flame setting. The fire
can also be set to operate anywhere between HIGH and LOW by moving the control knob to an inter-
mediate position.
To turn the fire OFF, move the slide control knob upwards fully to the position marked ‘O’.
The pilot is visible through the left hand side of the ceramic fuel bed.
When cold, the coals or pebbles may be rotated for good viewing.
Turn the main burner control (shown on left hand side of control valve) knob
fully anti-clockwise.
Turn ignition knob (shown on right hand side of control valve) slightly left
towards the ignition position until reaching the stop, press down and hold for
5 seconds (only pilot gas is flowing)
Continue pressing down the knob while turning further to the left to activate
the piezo spark, continue to hold the knob down for a further 10 seconds
after the pilot has been lit. If the pilot does not light repeat the previous steps.
Upon lighting and after the further 10 seconds, release the knob and turn further to the left to the
ON position. The main burner will light and be controlled in accordance with the main burner con-
trol knob setting. Adjust the main burner control knob to the desired setting.
If the pilot is extinguished during use of the fire, you MUST wait ten minutes before repeating the
ignition procedure.
To turn the main burner OFF whilst keeping the pilot flame lit, turn the ignition control knob to the
pilot position then only the pilot will remain lit.
To shut the fire off completely, press the ignition control knob down and continue turning to the
right from the pilot position to the OFF position.
A safety interlock prevents re-ignition of the pilot flame until the thermocouple has cooled suffi-
ciently to allow the magnetic valve unit to reset itself.
The remote control unit allows operation of the main burner setting between maximum and pilot
only setting. It does not permanently turn the pilot on or off.
The remote control handset incorporates an inbuilt safety feature to prevent the main burner being
activated or turned up accidentally. It is necessary to press button 1 and 2 (see figure 18) simultane-
ously to turn the fire up.
To turn the fire down press button 3 only.

The spark gap (shown in figure 19) between the spark electrode and the thermocouple
should be 3.5 - 4.5mm to produce a good spark.
There should be no need to adjust this.
If under any circumstances the electric spark fails, the pilot may be lit manually by proceed-
ing with the ignition sequence as previously described, and after turning the control knob
through the spark position, the knob should be held in and the pilot lit with a taper.
Release the pressure test point screw, and attach a pressure gauge. Light the fire on
the HIGH setting. To commission the appliance, the operating pressure must be in
accordance with the figures stated in section 2.0 of these instructions. The fire is
factory set to achieve the correct flow rates at the specified inlet pressure.
Any significant variation in the inlet pressure could indicate a supply problem. If the
inlet pressure is too high, the gas supply meter/governor may be set incorrectly.
This should be checked with the fire running and if necessary reset by the gas sup-
plier. If the inlet pressure is too low, then check the meter/governor pressure with
the appliance running. If this is less than the inlet pressure stated in section 2.0 of
these instructions it will need to be reset by the gas supplier. If the inlet pressure
is too low, but the meter/governor pressure is acceptable, then a problem in the
supply pipework is to be suspected. Upon satisfactory checking of the inlet pressure, turn the fire off, disconnect the pressure gauge
and refit the test point screw. Light the fire and check for gas soundness. In the event that the inlet pressure is not in accordance with
the figures stated in the data section of these instructions, the appliance must not be commissioned, and the problem investigated and
rectified.
Slide control models : The pressure test point is located directly above the gas valve in the centre of the burner.
Remote control models : The pressure test point is located on the right hand side of the burner, between the burner legs.
Release the pressure test point screw, and attach a pressure gauge. Light the fire on the HIGH setting. To commission the appliance, the
burner pressure must be in accordance with the figures stated in section 2.0 of these instructions.
The fire is factory set to achieve these pressures and any significant variation could indicate a supply problem. If the pressure is too high,
the gas supply meter may be set incorrectly. This should be checked with the fire running and if necessary reset by the gas supplier.
Upon satisfactory checking of the burner pressure, turn the fire off, disconnect the pressure gauge and refit the test point screw. Light
the fire and check for gas soundness. In the event that the burner pressure is not in accordance with the figures stated in the data sec-
tion of these instructions, the appliance must not be commissioned, and the manufacturer should be contacted for guidance.
This fire is fitted with a flue spillage safety device (ODS). If the fire shuts down during use for no apparent reason then several things
may be suspected. If a door or window has been opened creating a draught, then pilot disturbance is the problem, and removal of the
draught should resolve this. The gas pressure reaching the fire must also be checked (again, recall your installer to check and rectify any
problem). The thermocouple connection into the back of the gas control valve may also have worked loose during installation, simply
get the installer to tighten. If pilot disturbance is not the cause, then the ODS safety system may be in operation. Switch the appliance
OFF, check the flue and carry out any remedial work required. Relight the fire and carry out a spillage test.
DO NOT allow the appliance to be used if it continues to fail a spillage test. The aeration hole of the pilot must be carefully cleaned out
on each annual service to ensure continued function of the ODS.The spillage monitoring system shall not be adjusted, modified, or put
out of operation by the installer. Any spare parts fitted MUST be of a type supplied for the purpose by the appliance manufacturer. If the
fire is not spilling, then further guidance should be sought, using the Troubleshooting section as a guide..

Close all doors and windows to the room containing the appliance. Let the fire run on HIGH for five minutes. Take a smoke match, light
it, and using a smoke match tube, hold it at the top edge of the fire opening, 25mm down and 25mm in. Starting 50mm in from either
side, run the smoke match across the opening. All the smoke should be drawn away up the flue. Any smoke returning into the room
indicates that spillage is occurring. If the initial spillage test fails, run the fire for a further 10 minutes and repeat the test. When the test
has been completed satisfactorily, repeat with any extractor fans in the premises running on the highest setting, and any communicating
doors open. Finally, repeat with all doors open.
DO NOT allow the fire to be used until the test is satisfactorily passed.
All instructions must be handed to the user for safekeeping. Show the customer how to light and control the fire. After commissioning
the appliance, the customer should be instructed on the safe use of the appliance and the need for regular servicing. Frequency of serv-
ice depends on usage, but MUST be carried out at least once annually. Advise that cleaning of the fire may be achieved when the fire is
cold using a damp cloth and mild detergent on most surfaces.
Scratched and other superficial damage to the matt black paintwork of the appliance can be covered with matching heatproof spray. Use
only the manufacturers’ recommended spray paint. Paint only when the fire is OFF and cold. Always mask off the surrounding area to
prevent contamination with overspray. Ventilate the room during the use of the spray. DO NOT attempt to spray paint the coals or
ceramics, or wash them in water.
Advise that the fire will emit a “newness” smell for a time after initial commissioning and that extra ventilation may be needed during
this time. Advise that the fire is fitted with a spillage safety device (O.D.S.). If the fire shuts down, this system may be in operation. If
spillage is suspected, SWITCH APPLIANCE OFF and call in the installer to investigate any problems.
Isolate the fire from the gas supply. Ensure that the fire is fully cold before attempting service. A suggested procedure for servicing is
detailed below.

The fireguards specified in BS 8423 are intended to protect people from falling into a fire, prevent burns and reduce the risk of injury, particu-
larly to young children and the infirm. In addition it is intended to reduce the risk of fire resulting from clothing and/or other flammable mate-
rials coming into contact with, or in proximity to, burning fuel and/or hot surfaces.
Fireguards can be permanently fixed in position or can be moveable, and can incorporate open fires including combination grates, or closed fires,
including room heaters and stoves. See figures 1 & 2 for fireguard examples.
The fireguards specified are not intended to reduce the risk of fires caused by flying particles, which are covered by BS 3248.
No purpose provided ventilation is normally required for this appliance. The requirements of other appliances operating in the same space or
room, and the results of a spillage test must be taken into consideration when assessing ventilation requirements, this will have been carried out
by your registered installer.
For Republic of Ireland, ventilation may be required, see IS 813, ICP3, IS 327, and any other rules in force.
WARNING : Ventilation openings (where fitted) must never be blocked or restricted in any way.
The pilot is visible through the viewing hole which is located at the lower left hand side of the
fuel bed. The fire features a ‘twin spark’ ignition system to aid lighting, Push the control knob in
fully and turn anti-clockwise through both of the SPAR positions, keeping fully depressed, hold
there for a few seconds. If the fire has not been used for some time, hold the knob in this posi-
tion for longer, to allow any air in the pipes to be purged. Continue turning anti-clockwise
through the spark clicks to the nine o’clock position, ensuring the pilot has lit. If not, return the
knob clockwise, and repeat.
When the pilot lights after one of the two sparks, keep the knob depressed in the nine o’clock
position for approximately ten seconds. Now release the knob and the pilot should stay alight.
If the pilot is extinguished during use, wait three minutes before repeating the ignition proce-
dure. To achieve the HIGH setting, push the control knob in slightly and continue turning anti-
clockwise to the high position. The main burner should light after a few seconds. To decrease the
setting to LOW, push the knob in slightly and turn the control knob clockwise to the low setting. To turn to the pilot only position from
the HIGH or LOW positions, press the control knob in, and return to the nine o’clock position and release. To turn the fire OFF, keep

The pilot is visible through the left hand side of the front ceramic strip. Rotate the coals or pebbles for
good viewing.
Push the slide control knob fully downwards to the SPAR position, and hold there for a few seconds,
until the pilot light stays on. When the pilot light has established, release the slide control knob and it
will return to the LOW flame setting. If the pilot is extinguished during use, wait three minutes before
repeating the ignition procedure.
To achieve the HIGH setting, move the slide control knob upwards to the HIGH flame setting. The fire
can also be set to operate anywhere between HIGH and LOW by moving the control knob to an inter-
mediate position.
To turn the fire OFF, move the slide control knob upwards upwards fully to the position marked ‘O’.
When cold, the coals or pebbles may be rotated for good viewing.
Turn the main burner control (shown on left hand side of control valve) knob
fully anti-clockwise.
Turn ignition knob (shown on right hand side of control valve) slightly left
towards the ignition position until reaching the stop, press down and hold for
5 seconds (only pilot gas is flowing)
Continue pressing down the knob while turning further to the left to activate
the piezo spark, continue to hold the knob down for a further 10 seconds
after the pilot has been lit. If the pilot does not light repeat the previous steps.
Upon lighting and after the further 10 seconds, release the knob and turn fur-
ther to the left to the ON position. The main burner will light and be controlled in accordance with
the main burner control knob setting. Adjust the main burner control knob to the desired setting.
If the pilot is extinguished during use of the fire, you MUST wait ten minutes before repeating the
ignition procedure.
To turn the main burner OFF whilst keeping the pilot flame lit, turn the ignition control knob to the
pilot position then only the pilot will remain lit.
To shut the fire off completely, press the ignition control knob down and continue turning to the
right from the pilot position to the OFF position.
A safety interlock prevents re-ignition of the pilot flame until the thermocouple has cooled suffi-
ciently to allow the magnetic valve unit to reset itself.
The remote control unit allows operation of the main burner setting between maximum and pilot
only setting. It does not permanently turn the pilot on or off.
The remote control handset incorporates an inbuilt safety feature to prevent the main burner being
activated or turned up accidentally. It is necessary to press button 1 and 2 (see figure 6) simultane-
ously to turn the fire up.
To turn the fire down press button 3 only.
This fire is fitted with a flue spillage safety device (ODS).
If the fire shuts down during use for no apparent reason then several reasons may be suspected. If a door or window has been
opened creating a draught, then pilot disturbance could be the problem, and removal of the draught should resolve this.
The fire can then be re-lit in accordance with the previous section. If pilot disturbance is not the cause, then the ODS safety sys-
tem may be in operation. Switch the appliance OFF, call in your installer to check any ventilation and carry out any remedial work
required. DO NOT allow the appliance to be used until the installation is passed as safe.

Coal effect models
1. Position the combustion matrix onto the burner tray as shown in
figure 8. The front edge of the matrix should sit snugly behind the
back edge of the burner rails as shown in figure 7. Do not fit the
matrix on top of the burner rails.
2. Position the front coal strip as shown in figure 9. The rear edge of
the front coal strip should fit in front of the burner rail. Again, do not
to place on top of the burner rails. When the front coal is in posi-
tion bend up the three
metal tabs at the front of
the tray to retain as
shown in figure 10.
3. Coals. All of the coals are the same. Take five coals and place them
as shown in figure 11. Care should be taken to ensure that the coals
bridge the gap between the front coal and the four coal supports at
the front of the matrix. Care should also be taken not to push the
coals right down between the coal supports, as this can detract from
the flame picture when the appliance is running.
4. Take five more moulded coals and position as shown in figure 12
to form the ‘second row’ of the fuel effect. The coals may be rotated
as desired to fit into the gaps between the coal supports in order to
create a random, realistic effect. Again, remember not to push the
coals down too far into the valleys between the coal supports as this
can have a detrimental effect to the flame picture

as shown in figure 13, in order to complete the third row. The coals
may be orientated as desired to achieve a realistic effect. eep the
spacing between the coals even and uniform. The two coals at the
ends of the row may be placed rearwards, towards the back corners
of the fuel matrix.
6. Finally, take the two remaining coals and place at the back of the
fuel matrix, in the centre as shown in figure 14. Adding these coals
should complete the appearance of the fuel bed giving an even dis-
tribution of equally spaced coals.
I PORTANT : The fire is designed to operate correctly
with the coals supplied when assembled according to the
instructions. Never add to the sixteen coals, or change
them for a different type. Never throw rubbish or other
matter onto the coal bed.
1. Refer back to section 6.0 - Fuel bed layout - coal effect and follow
steps 1 and 2. The front strip and fuel effect matrix used for pebble
effect versions are of the same design as coal effect versions, but have
a different surface finish. Position them as shown in figure 15.
2. Open the bag of 16 ceramic pebbles. All of these pebbles are the same
size. Take five pebbles and place them as shown in figure 16. Care should
be taken to ensure that the pebbles bridge the gap between the front
strip and the four supports at the front of the matrix. Care should also
be taken not to push the pebbles right down between the supports, as
this can affect the flame picture when the appliance is running.

rotated as desired to fit into the gaps between the supports in order to
create a random, realistic effect. Again, remember not to push the peb-
bles down too far into the valleys between the supports as this can have
a detrimental effect to the flame picture.
4. Now take another two pebbles and place behind the second row of
coals next to each other in the centre of the fuel bed as shown in figure
18. The pebbles may be orientated as desired to achieve a realistic effect.
eep the spacing between the pebbles even and uniform.
5. Finally, take the four remaining pebbles and place at the back of the
fuel matrix as shown in figure 19.
Once again, the pebbles may be orientated as desired in order to give a
realistic effect. Avoid pushing the pebbles down between the supports.
The fuel bed layout is now complete.
I PORTANT : The fire is designed to operate correctly with
the pebbles supplied when assembled according to the
instructions. Never add to the sixteen pebbles, or change
them for a different type. Never throw rubbish or other mat-
ter onto the fuel bed. Due to the light colour of the pebbles,
some discolouration/sooting is to be expected during normal
use.
The fire and flue should be checked on an annual basis to ensure all of the products of combustion are entering the flue and that there
is no excessive build up of soot. The frequency of service will depend on usage, but MUST be carried out at least once annually. Servicing
must be carried out by a GAS SAFE registered engineer.
Cleaning of the coals/pebbles may be carried out by following the instructions given in section 8.0 of these instructions. The Installation
instructions carry full servicing details for the use of the installer.
If debris from the flue or other foreign matter is found on the fire it may indicate a need for servicing. Do not use the fire until the
source of the debris has been found and rectified. Air vents (where fitted) should be checked periodically to ensure they are free from
obstruction.
Before carrying out any of the following operations, ensure that the fire is OFF and completely cold.
FIREFRONT - Any dust accumulating in the firefront may be removed using a vacuum cleaner or dry cloth. Heavy stains may be
removed by using a damp cloth and mild household detergent. Brass parts of the firefront may be cleaned using a suitable brass
cleaner. Replace the front centrally against the fire after cleaning. Do not use a damp cloth to clean cast iron fronts (Soho, Finsbury
and Arch models) as this can cause the fronts to rust.
PAINTED AREAS - These can be cleaned using a dry cloth.
