The engineer will provide you with information
about the safety limits of the installation and
should x a notice plate in a place where it can
be readily seen.
This appliance is designed as an efcient heating
device and consequently all body parts become
very hot in use. Except for the control knob and
control access door, which are designed to stay
cool, all other parts are working surfaces and
should not be touched.
The glass and frame on this appliance acts as
a reguard conforming to BS: 1945 – 1971 and
satisfies the Heating Appliance (Fireguards)
regulations 1991. No part of the window or frame
should be permanently removed. It does not give
protection for young children aged or inrm, extra
guarding(conforming to BS8423: 2002) should be
considered so the special hazards that exist in
nurseries and other places where there are young
children, aged or inrm persons are minimized.
Bearing in mind that the heat given off by this
appliance may affect articles placed close to it,
curtains should not be placed within 30cm.
The appliance is not designed as a dryer. It is not
therefore recommended that the appliance be
used in such a manner. Do not place any articles
within 30cm of this appliance as this may result
in damage to the articles.
The installation must be carried out in accordance
with the following regulations:
The Building Regulations issued by the
Department of the Environment, the Building
Standards (Scotland) (Consolidation) Regulations
issued by the Scottish Development Department.
GENERAL INFORMATION
Important Safety Notice
This appliance has a ceramic Fire-bed arrangement;
this contains Refractory Ceramic Fibres, which
are man-made vitreous silicate bres. Excessive
exposure to these materials can cause irritation
to eyes, skin and respiratory organs. Hence we
recommend that when handling these materials
the release of dust should be kept to a minimum.
During installation and servicing we recommend
that a HEPA ltered vacuum be used to remove
any dust and soot in and around the re. If any
of the ceramic re-bed components need to be
replaced we recommend that the removed parts
be sealed in a heavy-duty polythene bag, and be
labelled as RCF waste. RCF is not “Hazardous
waste” and can be disposed of at a licensed
tipping site for the disposal of industrial waste.
The appliance incorporates a permanent pilot.
This is located on the front of the burner, and
must not be adjusted by the installer. This system
must not be put out of operation, and if any parts
require changing, only original manufacturer parts
shall be used.
This appliance is designed to be used either
Natural or LPG gas however, each individual
appliance is only capable of running off the type
of gas specied at the time of purchase. It is
important to note that once a type of gas has
been specied the stove cannot run off any other
type. The type of gas that your stove is capable
of burning is stated on the data information panel.
This appliance has been designed, tested and
approved to meet standards in place for product
use, performance and safety. Installation of your
appliance must comply with current building
regulations. It is therefore recommend that a
registered gas installer be employed for this task.

Before installation of these appliances, the
area into which the re is to be tted must be
cleared of all debris (including dust), in particular
combustible material.
The appliance must sit on a hearth (or base
surface) sufcient to support the weight of the
fire. The firebox must then also be secured.
Adjustable brackets are supplied on the rebox
for this purpose.
Prevention of rust: Always switch the Fire
completely off after use. This saves gas and
prevents corroding of your re.
General Fitting Information
GENERAL INFORMATION
BS 5440 part 1, BS 5871 part 2 and BS 6891.
In the Republic of Ireland the installation must also
conform to the relevant standards, particularly
in regard to ue sizing and ventilation. Refer to
documents IS813, ICP3, IS327 and any other
rules in force.
This appliance must be installed in accordance
with the rules in force and used only in a sufciently
ventilated space, and is intended for use on a gas
installation with a governed meter.
Before installation, ensure that the local distribution
conditions (identication of the type of gas and
pressure) and the adjustment of the appliance
are compatible. The technical specication of this
appliance is given on the rear page of this manual.
Do not use the appliance if the glass front door
or panel has been broken, removed or is open.
Note:
Since the appliance is a source of heat, circulation
of air occurs. Therefore it is of importance that you
do not use the appliance shortly after a renovation
of the home. Because of the natural circulation
of air, moist and volatile components from paint,
building materials, carpet etc. will
be attracted. These components can settle
themselves down onto cold surfaces in the form
of soot.

USER INFORMATION
Remote control electronic ignition sys-
tem RCE GV60
The appliance is supplied with a remote control.
Ignition, controlling the ame height and switch-
ing off are performed by the remote control that
operates a receiver in the control hatch. For some
appliances, no control hatch is supplied. In that
case, the receiver is placed under the appliance.
The receiver and remote control are battery pow-
ered. The receiver requires 4
penlite (AA type) batteries, the remote control
requires 3 x AAA penlites .At normal use, the
batteries will have an average life of one year.
You can also use an optional adapter. Ask your
installer for information. In that case you will need
a 230 V connection near your appliance.
The appliance’s standard functions such as igni-
tion, controlling the ame height, standby (pilot
burner) position and switching off ,are performed
in the MAN position. In the display of the remote
you can see the letters MAN.
In addition, the remote control can also be used
to set a number of additional functions:
- temperature display in degrees Celsius or
Fahrenheit;
- time;
- thermostat function;
- timer for thermostat function.
Setting the communication code
Prior to putting the application into operation, a
communication code must be set between the
remote control and the receiver. The code is cho-
sen randomly from the 65000 available codes. As
a result, the chance that other remote controls
near you are using the same code and affect the
operation of your appliance is very small.
Follow the procedure described below:
Hold down the reset button on the receiver,
until you hear two consecutive sound signals
(see g. 2). After the second, longer signal, let
go of the reset button.
Press button
on the remote control within 20 seconds, until
you hear a sound signal: this is the conrma-
tion of a correct communication.
!Caution When installing a new remote control
or receiver, you must set a new communica-
tion code.

INFORMATIE VOOR DE GEBRUIKER
Afstandsbediening met volledig
electronische ontsteking (RCE4 GV60)
Het toestel wordt bediend met een afstandsbe-
diening (afb.1). Zowel het ontsteken, het regelen
van de vlamhoogte als het uitschakelen gebeurt
met behulp van de afstandsbediening, die een
ontvanger (afb.2) in het bedieningskastje aan-
stuurt. Bij sommige toestellen wordt geen bedie-
ningskastje geleverd. In dat geval is de ontvanger
onder het toestel aangebracht.
De ontvanger en de afstandsbediening worden
gevoed door batterijen. Voor de ontvanger zijn 4
penlite (type AA) batterijen nodig; voor de afstands-
bediening 3 penlites (type AAA). De levensduur
van de batterijen is bij normaal gebruik ongeveer
een jaar.
Als optie kan een netstroom adapter worden ge-
bruikt. Informeer hiernaar bij uw installateur.
U hebt dan een 230 V aansluiting nodig in de om-
geving van het toestel.
2
Met behulp van de afstandsbediening kunnen
een aantal extra functies ingesteld worden:
- temperatuurweergave in graden
Celsius of Fahrenheit;
- tijd;
- thermostaat functie;
- timer voor thermostaat functie.
Instellen communicatiecode
Voordat het toestel in gebruik wordt genomen,
moet een communicatiecode ingesteld worden
tussen de afstandsbediening en de ontvanger.
De code wordt willekeurig gekozen uit de 65000
codes die beschikbaar zijn. Hierdoor is de kans
klein dat andere afstandsbedieningen in uw om-
geving dezelfde code gebruiken en de werking
van uw toestel beïnvloeden.
Ga als volgt te werk:
Druk de reset-knop op de ontvanger in totdat
u achtereenvolgens twee geluidssignalen
hoort. Laat na het tweede, langere signaal
de reset-knop los.
Druk binnen 20 seconden op knop op
de afstandsbediening totdat u een geluid-
signaal hoort: dit is de bevestiging van de
goede communicatie. Als u een nieuwe
afstandsbediening of ontvanger installeert,
moet u opnieuw een communicatiecode in-
stellen.

INSTALLER INFORMATION
InstallatIon
Before beginning the installation, check that the
details on the rating plate correspond to the gas
type and pressure to which the appliance will be
connected.
Ventilation
This appliance can be installed in a completely
sealed or mechanically ventilated house without
extra ventilation and/or fume extraction.
General Balanced Flue Notes
There are many possibilities for installing this
Concentric Balanced Flue system into a building,
both Roof and Wall terminations are possible,
and the ue can either be built into an existing
chimney or a completely new ue system may
be constructed.
The system is based upon a Concentric Flue
system which utilises an inner ue of 100 or 130
mm diameter which passes through an outer ue
of 150 or 200 mm diameter. The ue gasses that
are the products of combustion of the re, pass
through the inner ue and are safely vented to
the outside environment. The gap between the
inner and outer ues is the channel by which the
stove is supplied with air for combustion.
These concentric ues terminate outside of the
property in a terminal, this terminal will keep the
expelled gasses and the fresh air for combustion
separate. It is important that the terminal is not
blocked, a suitable guard maybe required if the
terminal is located at a “Low” level (usually when
the terminal is within 2m of oor level).
The Balanced Flue gas appliance can be installed
as an insertion into an existing or new replace.
If an existing Flue or Chimney is to be utilised,
then the installation engineer must be consulted.
If the chimney has been previously used it must
be professionally cleaned and certied as being
sound and t for use.
The European CE approval on this appliance is
restricted to the Flue systems as specied by
the supplier, thus the appliance must only be
installed with the original ue system, no others
may be used
The gas re, in combination with the concentric
ue system , has been approved in accordance
with the European CE-norm for gas appliances
and may therefore be used only with this system.
The guarantee is invalidated if the appliance is
(completely or partially) installed using a different
system.
The concentric ue systems can be used with
either a newly-built or existing chimney.
These appliances are designed with the “Firebox”
raised up off the ground level by the built in “Base
unit”.
Thus these appliances require no special Hearth
arrangements, as the oor will not get hot and is
protected by the steel construction of the “Base
unit”.
The appliance must not be tted against a rear
wall constructed from a combustible material; a
gap of 300mm should be given all round the stove
before combustible materials may be used in the
wall construction.
If the appliance has to be located in an opening,
a minimum clearance of 50mm should be allowed
to non-combustible materials.
If the appliance is located in a recess, then
the recess must have adequate ventilation, we
recommend a minimum total vent area of 400
cm².
The stove must be located at least 300 mm from
any combustible materials outside the chimney
breast.
Appliance Fireplace Installation
After selecting the appliance location, install a gas
connection for the appliance in approximately the
desired location of the gas controls.
The gas controls are already connected to the
appliance. The controls need to be located in the

11
INSTALLER INFORMATION
control access box, so an appropriate position for
the access box need to be determined.
This appliance has adjustable legs, these must
me set to stabalise the re before ue position is
nalised.
Do not make any adjustments to the appliance,
except the leg length.
The appliance and Flue system should be tted
with a minimum clearance of 500mm from any
combustible objects or materials, this includes
any combustible materials used for the replace
construction.
As this is a room sealed appliance and the
appliance stands on appropriate legs, a hearth
is not required for this appliance.
The Fireplace should be ventilated with openings
giving a total free vent area of 400 cm².
A gap of 50mm should be left all round the
appliance.
If a shelf is to be tted above the replace opening,
a gap of 150mm minimum should be left between
the opening and the shelf.
The brackets supplied may be used fore securing
the appliance to a rear wall.
Timber Frame Construction
Whilst it is possible to install room-sealed
appliances in timber frame properties, great care
needs to be taken to ensure that the ue assembly
does not interfere with the weather proofing
qualities of any outer wall which it may penetrate.
Before attempting this work, further details need
to be referenced, (e.g. “Gas Installations in Timber
Frame Buildings” from the CORGI installer series
in the UK).
Carport or Building Extension
Where a ue terminal is sited within a carport or
building extension, it should have at least two
completely open and unobstructed sides. The
distance between the lowest part of the roof and
the top of the terminal should be at least 600mm.
Note: A covered passageway should not be
treated as a carport. Flues should not be sited in
a covered passageway between properties.
Basements,Lightwells and Retaining
walls
Flue terminals should not be sited within the
connes of a basement area, light well or external
space formed by a retaining wall, unless steps are
taken to ensure the products of combustion can
disperse safely at all times. It may be possible
to install this Balanced Flue system in such a
location provided that it is not sited lower than 1m
from the top level of that area to allow combustion
products to disperse safely.
Flue terminals should be sited to ensure
total clearance of the combustion products in
accordance with the inclosed information.
When the products of combustion are discharged,
they should not cause a nuisance to adjoining or
adjacent properties and they should be positioned
so that damage cannot occur to other parts of the
building. If the outer wall surface is constructed
of combustible material, a non-combustible plate
should be tted behind the terminal projecting
25mm beyond the external edges of the terminal.
