GENERAL POINTS FOR THE PURCHASER
This appliance is intended for decorative purposes only.
The Fire is designed to run off either Natural or LPG gas. It is important to
note that once a type of gas has been specified the Fire cannot run off any
other type. The type of gas that your Fire is capable of burning is stated on
the data information panel, located on the under side of the burner.
This burner has an Oxygen Depletion System (ODS), the system is not
adjustable, and should not be rendered in operative. The ODS will stop the
supply of gas if the evacuation of flue gasses is interrupted. If this occurs
then a 10 minute period should be allowed before reignition is attempted
as described in section 10.1. If this situation recurs then a specialist should
be informed.
If parts of the fire requires replacement only original parts must be used.
These are available through the dealer from whom you purchased the Fire.
Before installing the fire check that the data plate indicates the suitability
of the type of gas being used. I.e. Natural gas pressure.

Before installation of the appliance the chimney or flue must be inspected
by a competent person and passed as suitable. A smoke test should be
carried out before the installation of the Fire.
This appliance is suitable for Class 1 flues (the Building Regulations 1984).
It is the responsibility of the installer to ensure that the flue suitable for the
conditions experienced when burning gas.
The minimum effective height of the flue must be 5 metres measured
from the hearth to the Terminal of the flue. If the flue has any non-vertical
sections the height should be increased. Prior to installation the installer
should ensure that the flue is free from obstruction and ideally a chimney
should be swept and subsequently smoke tested. Ensure that any
dampers are fixed in a permanently open position.
CONNECTING THE GAS SUPPLY

Any intervention on the appliance must be carried out by a gas
approved technician.
IMPORTANT
TROUBLESHOOTING
A. THE GAS PILOT WILL NOT IGNITE OR STAY LIT ?
· Ensure the gas is turned on at the appliance and the meter/cylinder.
· Hold in the pilot gas button for at least 20 seconds once the pilot is
alight to ensure the operation of the safety Thermocouple valve.
· Ensure that the pilot injector is not obstructed or blocked and is free
from any dust or dirt.
· Ensure that the Thermocouple has not been damaged in transit. This is
a very delicate Electro-magnetic device
B. THE PILOT IS NOT BURNING OR PERFORMING CORRECTLY ?
· Ensure the pilot flame is the correct size for the type of gas. The flame
should be focused on the thermocouple probe, so that it is evenly encircled.
· The pilot should have two flames, one directed towards the
thermocouple, and one towards the bed of the fire. The pilot head will
have been set correctly in the factory.
C. THE MAIN BURNER DOES NOT SEEM TO BE BURNING CORRECTLY ?
· Ensure adequate gas pressure to the appliance. The pressure can be
measured by unscrewing the pressure test nipple on the tap and
applying a suitable pressure gauge (i.e. a manometer). Ensure adequate
volume of gas is being used. Once the fire is burning on maximum,
turn off all other gas appliances in the house and calculate the fuel being
burned from the gas meter.
· Make sure that the burner is burning correctly. The flames should be
fairly even across the top of the burner before any logs, pebbles or
embers are placed on top.
SERVICING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance should be serviced annually.
These instructions are meant to be used in conjunction with the normal
servicing practices that a Corgi authorised installer would use.
1. Remove the Logs and embers carefully and replace any that are
damaged or broken.
2. Clean any deposition of lint off the burner. This can be done with a soft
brush, or vacuum cleaner.
3. Inspect the burner unit.
4. Relay the Fire in line with the instructions “arranging the layout of the Logs”.
5. There should be no need to service the burner. If however this is required,
a competent fitter should check the setting pressure at the nozzle on the
gas inlet of the burner. The correct pressure required is stated on the
data information plate.
During servicing the chimney should be checked to ensure that products
of combustion are entering the flue, and that there is no excessive build
up of soot. Any soot deposits will require removal. Any purpose provided
ventilation should be free from obstruction.
SERVICE PARTS
Only the logs, embers, pebbles and gas tap/valve are serviceable. Only
spares of the correct type should be used.
