1Introduction
The appliance can only be installed by a
competent person in accordance with the Gas
Safety. We urgently advise you to read this
installation manual properly.
This appliance complies with the guidelines
for European gas appliances (Gas Appliances
Directive) and bears the CE mark.
2Safety instructions.
The appliance should be placed,
connected and annually checked in
accordance with these installation
instructions and valid national and
local Gas Safety (Installation and Use)
Regulations .
Check whether the data on the
registration plate are in agreement
with the local type of domestic gas
and pressure.
The fitter is not permitted to change
these adjustments or the construction
of the appliance!
Do not place any additional imitation
logs or glowing coals on the burner or
in the combustion chamber.
The appliance has been designed for
ambience and heating purposes. This
means that all surfaces of the
appliance , including the glass, can
become very hot (hotter than 100
°C). An exception to this are the
bottom of the appliance and the
controls.
Do not place any inflammable
materials within a of 0.5 m. of the
radiation of the appliance and
ventilation grills.
Due to natural air circulation of the
appliance, moisture and volatile
components from paint, building
materials, floor coverings etc. that
haven’t yet set, can be drawn through
the convection system and can be
deposited on cold surfaces as soot.
That is why you should not use the
appliance shortly after a renovation.
The first time the appliance is
switched on, Let the fire run on
maximum setting for several hours so
that the lacquer coating will have an
opportunity to set and possible
vapours released can be safely
removed by ventilation. We advise
you to be outside the room as much
as possible during this process!
Please note that:
all transport packaging should be
removed.
children or pets should not be
present in the room.
3Installation requirements
3.1 The fire
The appliance must be built into an
existing or a newly to be constructed
false chimney breast.
In appliances with flexible gas pipes,
the gas control valve is mounted to
the right side of the fire for safe
transport . Unscrew it and mount it at
a distance of max. 30 cm behind the
access door.
The receiver which has been attached
in a transport holder (see fig. 1.4 A)
to the side of control valve bracket,
can now be slid onto the top of the
control valve bracket. The transport
holder can be removed now.
3.2 False Chimney breast
The false chimney breast must be
constructed of an non-combustible
material.
Always ventilate the space above the
appliance by means of the grills or a
comparable alternative with a
minimum air supply of 200 cm².
For the finish, use special stucco
(min. 100°C resistant) or glass fibre
wallpaper to prevent discoloration or
cracks etc. Recommended drying
time: for plaster is a minimum of 24
hours per mm of coat applied.
The false chimney breast and its
construction may not rest on the
appliance
3.3 Requirements flue system and
outlets
You should always make use of the
materials prescribed by Faber
International Ltd. Only by using these
materials can Faber International Ltd.
guarantee a proper functioning.
The outside of the concentric flue
material can reach a temperature of
Approx 150°C. Make sure of proper
isulation and protection in case of
transit through combustible wall or

L
5 < <<<
ceiling constructions. And observe
sufficient distance.
Make sure that the concentric flue
materials are bracketed every 2
metres when they have an extended
length, so that the weight of the flue
material is not resting on the
appliance itself.
You may never start with a cut-down
concentric pipe directly on to the
appliance.
3.4 terminals
The flue outlet can end on an external wall or
a roof . Check whether the outlet desired by
you complies with local requirements
concerning good function and ventilation
systems .
For a proper functioning the terminal should
be at least 0.5 m. away from:
Corners of the building.
Roof overhangs and balconies.
Eaves (with the exception of the roof
ridge).
4Preparation and Installation
instructions
4.1 Gas connection
The gas connection must comply with locally
valid standards.
We advise Pipe work from the meter to the
appliance must be of adequate size., with
near the appliance a gas isolater tap that
should always be accessible. Place the gas
connection in such a way that this is easily
accessible, and that before service, the
burner unit can be disconnected at all times.
4.2 Electric connection
If an adapter is used for the power supply,
then a wall socket 230VAC – 50Hz must be
mounted in the close neighbourhood of the
hearth.
4.3 Preparation of the appliance
Remove the packaging of the
appliance . Make sure the gas pipes
underneath the appliance are not
damaged.
Clear a safe space to store the frame
and the glass.
Remove the frame , (if necessary) and
the glass and take the separately
wrapped parts out of the appliance
Prepare the gas connection to the gas
control valve.
4.4 Placing the appliance

Rough height adjustment:
owith the extending legs,
or the long additional
legs.
Accurate:
owith the rotating
adjustable legs.
4.5 Mounting the flue materials
In case of a wall or roof terminal, the
hole must be at least 5 mm bigger
than the diameter of the flue
material.
Horizontal parts must be installed at a
(3 degree) slope up away the
appliance.
Build up the system from the
appliance. If this is not possible, you
should make use of a adjustable pipe
.
For fitting the system a ½ metre
cut-down pipe should be used. Make
sure the inner pipe is always 2 cm
longer than the outer pipe. Wall and
roof terminal are also shortened.
These parts must be secured with a
self tapping screw.
Do not insulate but ventilate bild-in
flue material (approx.100cm2)
4.6 Building a chimney breast.
Before constructing the chimney breast we
advise you to perform a function test with the
appliance as described in chapter 7 “checking
the installation”
4.7 Chimney breast
Construct the chimney breast from
non-combustible material in
combination with metal profiles or of
brickwork / aerated concrete bricks.

Take the grills and the service panel
into account. ( see fig. 1.1 en 1.2).
Place a protective shield made of
non-combustible material above the
grills (see fig 1.1 A) .
Always use a lintel if the chimney
breast is constructed of brickwork.
These should not rest onto the build-
in frame.
The chimney construction may not
resting on the build-in frame
5removing the glass
Remove the cover strips on the side.
(see fig. 2.1)
Remove cover strip on the bottom.
(see fig. 2.2)
Place the suction discs onto the glass
Remove the sealing cord from the
groove (see fig. 2.3)
Remove the groove strips C on the
sides. (see fig. 2.4)
Slide the glass upwards, so that the
bottom edge is released from the
groove. Now gradually move the
bottom edge of the glass forwards and
lower the glass into the opening
between the build-in frame and the
appliance. (see fig. 2.5 and 2.6)
Now gradually move the top edge of
the glass forwards and upwards out of
the appliance (see fig. 2.7)
To replace the glass repeat the process in
reverse order.
Remove all Fingerprints from the glass, these
will be burned into it once the appliance is
used.
6Placing the decorative material
It is not allowed to add different or more
materials to the combustion chamber.
Always keep the pilot burner free from
decorative material!
Do not toss all the decorative material onto
the burner all at once, it can be obstructed
by dust particles.
6.1 Imitation logs
Spread the vermiculate preferably by
hand over the tube burners. The
surface of the vermiculate may be
very slightly elevated from the burner
plate but it should be level
throughout the entire length.
Place the imitation logs according to
instructions. (see fig. 3.1 or the
instruction card)
It is optional whether you apply chips
to the combustion chamber or not.
Prevent chips from covering the
burner, this has a negative effect on
the fire image.
Start the pilot en main burner,
according to the instructions in the
user’s manual. Assess whether the
flame distribution is correct.
Place the glass and check the flame
picture into the appliance
6.2 Pebbles / Greystone
Place the pebbles over the burner and
the bottom. Spread the pebbles
evenly to a double layer. The surface
of the pebbles may be very slightly
elevated from the burner (see
fig.3.2/ 3.3)
Place the glass and check the flame
picture into the appliance
7Checking the installation.
7.1 Checking the ignition of the pilot
burner, main burner.
Start the pilot and main burner according
to the instructions in the user’s manual.
Check whether the pilot light is
properly positioned above the main
burner and is not covered by chips, an
imitation log or pebbles.
Check the ignition of the main burner
at full mark or low mark.
(the ignition should take place
quickly and easily).
7.2 Checking for gas leakage.
Check all connections and joins for possible
gas leaks by means of a gas leak detector or
spray
7.3 Checking the burner pressure and the
pre-pressure
Check whether the burner pressure and the
inlet pressure measured agree with the data
indicated on the registration plate
Measuring the inlet-pressure:
Turn off the gas control tap.
Open the pressure gauge nipple B (see
figure 1.5) a few turns and connect a
pressure gauge hose to the gas control
valve.
Carry out this measurement when the

L

appliance is on at full gas mark and
when it is on the pilot light.
If the inlet pressure is too high you
are not permitted to connect the
appliance.
Measuring the burner pressure:
Only perform this measurement if the
inlet-pressure is correct.
Open the pressure gauge nipple A (see
fig. 1.5) a few turns and connect a
pressure gauge hose to the gas control
valve.
The pressure must agree with the
value indicated on the registration
plate. In case of deviations, get in
touch with the manufacturer.
* Close the pressure gauge nipples and
check these for gas leaks.
7.4 Checking the flame image.
Allow the applaince to burn for at least 20
minutes at full gas mark and then check
the flame image for:
1. Distribution of the flames
2. Colour of the flames
If either one or both points are
unacceptable, then check:
The positioning of the imitation logs
and/or the quantity of pebbles or
chips on the burner.
The connections of the tube materials
for leakage (in case of blue flames)
Whether the correct baffle has been
mounted
The outlet .
oWall terminal the correct side
up and the correct position
oRoof terminal the correct
position
Whether the horizontal lengths of the
flue pipes have not been exceeded
8Instructing the client
Recommend that the appliance be
serviced annually by a competent
person in order to guarantee a safe
use and a long lifespan.
Advise and instruct the client about
maintenance and cleaning of the
glass. Emphasize the risk of burning in
fingerprints.
Instruct the client about the
operation of the appliance and the
remote control unit, including the
replacement of the batteries and
adjusting the receiver for initial use.
Hand over to the client:
Installation manual
User’s manual
Imitation logs instruction card
Suction lifters
9Annual maintenance
9.1 Service and cleaning:
Check and clean if necessary after
checking:
oThe pilot light
oThe burner
oThe combustion chamber
oThe glass
oThe logs for possible fractures
oThe outlet
9.2 Replace:
oIf necessary the
chips/embers.
oin an LPG flat burner replace
the burner sheet
9.3 Cleaning the glass
Most of the deposits can be removed with a
dry cloth. You can use ceramic hob cleaner to
clean the glass.
Note: prevent fingerprints on the glass. these
will be burned into it once the appliance is
used and cannot be removed anymore!
Carry-out the check-up according to the
instructions in (chapter 7) “checking the
installation”.
10 Conversion to a different type of
gas (e.g. propane)
This can only be done by installing the proper
burner unit. for this purpose get in touch with
your supplier.
Always mention the type and serial number of
the appliance when ordering.

11 Calculation of flue system
The possibilities for the lengths of flue pipes
and the possible restrictors have been
recorded in a table (see chapter 12) This
table works with a vertical and a horizontal
length.
To define the vertical length all
lengths of flue pipes in a vertical
direction should be added up.
- The roof terminal always
counts as 1 metre.
To define the horizontal length all
lengths of flue pipes in a horizontal
direction should be added up.
- every 90° bend in the
horizontal part counts as 2
metres.
- every 45° bend in the
horizontal part counts as 1
metre.
- Turns from vertical to
horizontal or vice versa are
not reckoned in the
calculation.
- The wall terminal always
counts as 1 metre.
If there is transit under 45° then the real
vertical and horizontal lengths should be
calculated.
11.1 Points of particular interest:
In case of a wall terminal, the entire
flue system including the wall
terminal should be constructed of
200/130 flue pipes.
In case of a roof terminal, the entire
flue system should be constructed of
200/130 flue pipes , apart from the
roof terminal, which should be
constructed of 150/100 and should be
connected by means of a reducer.
The maximum chimney length is 12
metres.
You can never start with a 90° or 45°
bend from the appliance.
You should always start with 1 metre
vertical if the horizontal transit is
more than 1 metre.
You should never start with a cut-
down pipe from the appliance.
