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:
1all transport
packaging should be
removed.
2children or pets
should not be present
in the room.
3Installation requirements
3.1 Minimum distance around the fire
Keep in mind that there has to be a minimal
distance of 300. millimetres between the side
glass of the appliance and a wall.

The outside of the concentric flue
material can reach a temperature of
Approx 150°C. Make sure of proper
insulation and protection in case of
transit through combustible wall or
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.
3.3 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).

3.4 Existing chimney
You can also connect the appliance to an
existing chimney. The existing chimney will
function as an air supply and a flexible
stainless steel pipe drawn up through the
chimney will remove the combustion gas.
The flexible stainless steel pipe of Ø 100 mm
should have a CE mark for temperatures up to
600°Celsius.
The chimney should comply with the following
requirements:
The diameter of the flue system
must be at least 150x150 mm.
There should be no more than 1
appliance connected to a flue pipe.
The chimney must be in good

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 isolator 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
Take the installation requirements into
account (see chapter 3 )
(Check the strength of the wall where the fire

is approximately 86 kg))
• Mount the bracket level to the wall (Fig.
1.2)
• Place the firer on the bracket and secure
with four bolts and nuts under need (Fig. 1.3)
• Place the protective shield for the gas valve
and receiver (fig.1.4)
4.5 Mounting the smoke emission
outlet 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)
5Removing the glass.
Remove the cast iron window frame, push up
and pull the bottom toward (Fig. 1.5)
• Remove all glass clamps (fig.1.6)
• now the glass can be taken out. (Fig.

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!
6.1 Placing the imitation logs
Place the imitation logs. Make sure
that the logs are properly connected
to the tube burners.(see fig. 1.9 or
imitation logs instruction card
supplied)
Now divide the vermiculate and the
chips in the combustion chamber.
Avoid the covering of the primary air
vent(s).from the burner
Place the glass and check the fire
image.
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 1.8 a few turns and connect a
pressure gauge hose to the gas control
valve.
Carry out this measurement when the
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.1.8.) a few turns and connect a
pressure gauge hose to the gas control
valve.
The pressure must agree with the
value indicated in the technical info
of this manual (chapter 13). 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 picture.
Allow the applaince to burn for at least 20
minutes at full and then check the flame
picture 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 Flue materials
for leakage (in case of blue flames)
Whether the correct flue restrictor
has been mounted
The outlet .
oWall terminal is installed
correctly
oRoof terminal is fitted and
sited correctly
The flue system is correctly
calculated
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.

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:
oInstallation manual
oUser’s manual
oImitation logs instruction
card
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:
If necessary the chips/embers.
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:
You should never start with a cut-
down pipe from the appliance.
