3.0 I STALLATIO REQUIREME TS
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 suitable flue box complying with the constructional requirements of BS 715. Either a ‘Replacement Chairbrick’ or a BS 1251
chairbrick should also be fitted into the builders’ opening. The flue box must be installed onto a suitable non-combustible insu-
lating surface at least 12mm thick, covering the entire base are of the box.
The flue must have an effective height of at least three meters, 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 restric-
tion 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 appli-
ance (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 fitted, such as class GC1, as regulations allow.
This appliance has been tested for use with circular flues of a minimum internal diameter of 175mm. The flue termination (cowl)
must be of a type suitable for use with an inset Decorative Fuel Effect Fire BS5871 part 3 contains further details.
The fireplace opening should be inspected and repairs made where nec-
essary. Any chair brick may be left in place.
The opening W DTH and HE GHT dimensions should be between
405mm and 440mm wide, and 565mm to 575mm high.

4.0 SITE REQUIREME TS - CO TI UED
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 fireplace opening.
Combustible materials, such as wood, may be fitted to within 100mm (4in) of either side of the fireplace opening , providing the forward
projection does not exceed 100mm (4in).
Any combustible 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.
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.
f spillage is detected when commissioning the appliance then amongst other problems there may be insufficient natural ventilation for
the correct operation of the flue. This is potentially a greater problem should the property be of modern nature. f the appliance does
not spill with windows open but does with windows closed, this proves that lack of ventilation is the problem, if not, it will be the flue
at fault. nstallation of an air brick in these circumstances may be the best solution. Any ventilation fitted must comply with BS 5871 part
2 and BS 5440 part 2. Ventilation located underneath or within the immediate vicinity (one metre) of the fire MUST NOT be used as it
may adversely affect the performance of the O.D.S. system.
Spillage detected during commissioning is almost always a result of poor flue performance, which cannot be corrected by any amount
of ventilation. For Republic of reland ventilation may be required, see S 813, CP3, S 327, and any other rules in force.
Read all the instructions before continuing to unpack or install this appliance.
Remove the box containing the firefront, and the bag containing the coals. Remove the cardboard packing pieces, and any bags contain-
ing other fittings or parts. Remove the burner unit from the remaining packaging.
Check that the components supplied correlate with the checklist given in section 6.1. Please dispose of the packaging materials at your
local recycling centre.
Note: Ensure that the gas supply is isolated before co encing installation of the appliance.
Smoke test the flue to ensure proper draw and that there are no leaks present.
Locate the gas supply point. This appliance is suitable for all gas connections, including those concealed behind the opening.
I portant Note: Check that the ther ocouple connection nut into the rear of the valve is secure.
Place the appliance into the shaped firebrick, ensuring it does not protrude forward of the fireplace opening. Mark the location of the
front support of the tray. Remove the tray and drill the two marked holes with an appropriate masonry bit. Place wall plugs into the
holes. Remove the front support from the appliance by unscrewing from the two front legs. Position the front foot in the over the holes
and secure the front support using suitable screws into the prepared holes. Re-fit the tray into the shaped firebrick, and secure the front
legs of the tray to the support.
Using 8mm diameter pipe, connect the appliance to the gas supply point. The appliance 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.

Please refer to the relevant section of the user manual.
Unwrap the firefront and ashpan door. Place the firefront directly in front of the fire and slide the ashpan door into place.
Do not use any firefront other than the one supplied with the appliance.
Turn on and test the gas supply up to the fire for any leaks, in accordance with current edition of BS6891.
The pilot is visible through the left hand side of ceramic fuel matrix. When cold, the coals or peb-
bles may be rotated for good viewing. The fire features a ‘twin spark’ ignition system to aid light-
ing, Push the control knob in fully and turn anti-clockwise through both of the SPARK positions,
keeping fully depressed, hold there for a few seconds. f 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.
Ensure the pilot has lit. f 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. f the pilot is extinguished
during use, wait three minutes before repeating the ignition procedure.
To achieve the H GH setting, push the control knob in slightly and continue turning anti-clock-
wise 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 H GH 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 ceramic fuel matrix. When cold,
the coals or pebbles may be rotated for good viewing. Turn the main burner
control (shown in figure 3 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. f 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 burn-
er control knob setting. Adjust the main burner control knob to the desired setting.
f 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 suf-
ficiently 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. t 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. t is necessary to press buttons 1 and 2 (see figure 4)
simultaneously to turn the fire up.
To turn the fire down press button 3 only.

11.1 OPERATI G THE FIRE (REMOTE CO TROL MODELS)

The gap between the spark electrode and the pilot should be 3.5 - 4.5mm to produce a good
spark.
There should be no need to adjust this. f under any circumstances the electric spark fails, the
pilot may be lit manually by proceeding 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 H GH 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. f 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. f the inlet pressure is too low, then check the meter/governor pressure with
the appliance running. f 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. f 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 pres-
sure, turn the fire off, disconnect the pressure gauge and refit the test point screw.
Light the fire and check for gas soundness. n 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.
This fire is fitted with a flue spillage safety device (ODS). f the fire shuts down during use for no apparent reason then several things
may be suspected. f a door or window has been opened creating a draught, then pilot disturbance is the problem, and removal of the
draught should resolve this. f a grommet seal has been left out of the firebox (if fitted) then this also will also cause intermittent shut-
down. The gas pressure reaching the fire must also be checked. The thermocouple connection into the back of the gas control valve may
also have worked loose during installation, simply tighten to remedy if this is the case.
f 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. Re-light 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.
f 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 H GH 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 indi-
cates that spillage is occurring. f 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.
NOTE: If spillage is still indicated after undertaking all of the above, there ay be a fault in the flue, or insufficient ventila-
tion is present. f the problem cannot be rectified immediately, then expert advice should be sought. nform the user, disconnect the
fire, and attach an explanatory label.

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 may 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.). f the fire shuts down, this system may be in operation.
f spillage is suspected, SW TCH APPL ANCE OFF and call in the installer to investigate any problems.
Ensure that the fire is fully cold before attempting service. A suggested procedure for servicing is detailed below.
1. Lay out the dust sheet and tools.
2. Carefully remove the firefront casting, and ceramic components.
3. Check around the top of the fireplace opening for signs of spillage.
4. solate the gas supply at the appliance inlet elbow, and disconnect the gas supply pipe. Remove the two screws
securing the tray to the front support.
5. Lift the burner tray from the chair brick.
6. Check the flue with smoke pellet for correct operation.
7. Strip off the burner pipes and clean thoroughly.
8. Clean out the injector and pilot assembly. DO NOT attempt to dismantle the pilot unit.
9. Ensure the injector is aligned squarely with the venturi tube. Re-assemble and re-fit the burner tray.
10. Re fit and replace the ceramics, using genuine spares where necessary.
11. Re-fit the decorative front.
12. Turn on the gas supply, and leak test.
13. Check any purpose provided ventilation is un-obstructed.
14. Light the fire and test for spillage.
15. Check operating pressure and safe operation of the appliance.
For specific servicing instructions, see the relevant sections.
Remove the firefront and place to one side. Remove the ceramic components. Gently clean in the open air. Be careful not to create
dust from the coals. Where necessary replace damaged components with genuine spares. Seal scrap components in plastic bags and
dispose of at proper refuse sites as directed. Re-fit the ceramics carefully by referring to the relevant section of the user instructions.
Protect the hearth from potential damage. Remove the two screws securing the tray to the front support and withdraw from the
fireplace opening/chairbrick.
Remove the burner unit as previously described. The pilot unit can be removed by withdrawing the tubing nut, the thermocouple nut on
the rear of the valve, and the two securing screws, and lifting away. Remove the tubing nut from the valve end of the pilot pipe, and blow
through to dislodge any debris.
Remove the two tubing nuts on the ends of the gas pipe to the injector elbow and blow clear. Release the screw through the supporting

The fireguards specified in BS 8423 are intended to protect people from falling into a fire, prevent burns and reduce the risk of
injury, particularly to young children and the infirm. n addition it is intended to reduce the risk of fire resulting from clothing
and/or other flammable materials 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.
The fire and flue should be checked on an annual basis to ensure all of the product 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 every 12 months.
Servicing must be carried out by a GAS SAFE registered person.
Cleaning of the coals may be carried out by following the instructions given in the nstallation section. The nstallation instructions
carry full servicing details for the use of the installer.
f 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.
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 reland, ventilation may be required, see S 813, CP3, S 327, and any other rules in force.
WAR I G : Ventilation openings (where fitted) must never be blocked or restricted in any way.

The pilot is visible through the left hand side of ceramic fuel matrix. When cold, the coals or peb-
bles may be rotated for good viewing. The fire features a ‘twin spark’ ignition system to aid light-
ing, Push the control knob in fully and turn anti-clockwise through both of the SPARK positions,
keeping fully depressed, hold there for a few seconds. f 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.
Ensure the pilot has lit. f 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. f the pilot is extinguished
during use, wait three minutes before repeating the ignition procedure.
To achieve the H GH setting, push the control knob in slightly and continue turning anti-clock-
wise to the high position. The main burner should light after a few seconds. To decrease the set-
ting 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 H GH 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 ceramic fuel matrix. When cold, the coals or pebbles may be rotated for good
viewing. Turn the main burner control (shown in figure 4 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. f 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 con-
trolled in accordance with the main burner control knob setting. Adjust the
main burner control knob to the desired setting.
f 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 igni-
tion 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 con-
tinue 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 suf-
ficiently 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. t 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. t is necessary to press buttons 1 and 2 (see figure 5)
simultaneously 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).
f the fire shuts down during use for no apparent reason then several reasons may be suspected. f 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.
f pilot disturbance is not the cause, then the ODS safety system 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.
Full depth coal effect models
1. Position the combustion matrix onto the burner tray as shown in
figure 6. 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 8. The rear edge of
the front coal strip should fit in front of the burner rail. Again, do not
place on top of the burner rails. When the front coal is in position
bend up the three metal tags at the front of the tray to retain as
shown in figure 8a.
3. Coals. All of the coals are the same. Take five coals and place them
as shown in figure 9. 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 10
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.
5. Take another four coals and place behind the second row of coals
as shown in figure 11, in order to complete the third row. The coals
may be orientated as desired to achieve a realistic effect. Keep 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 12. Adding these coals
should complete the appearance of the fuel bed giving an even dis-
tribution of equally spaced coals.
IMPORTA T : The fire is designed to operate correctly
with the coals supplied when assembled according to the
instructions. ever add to the sixteen coals, or change
them for a different type. ever 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 13.

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 14.
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.
3. Take five more ceramic pebbles and position as shown to form the
‘second row’ of the fuel effect as shown in figure 15. The pebbles may
be 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 pebbles 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
pebbles next to each other in the centre of the fuel bed as shown in fig-
ure 16. The pebbles may be orientated as desired to achieve a realistic
effect. Keep 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 17.
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.
IMPORTA T : The fire is designed to operate correctly with the pebbles supplied when assembled according to the
instructions. ever add to the sixteen pebbles, or change them for a different type. ever throw rubbish or other
matter onto the fuel bed.
Due to the light colour of the pebbles, some discolouration/sooting is to be expected during normal use.

1. Refer back to section 6.0 - Fuel bed layout (coal effect option) and fol-
low steps 1 and 2. The fuel effect matrix used for log effect versions is
the same design as coal effect versions, but has a different surface finish.
The front log strip is of a different design and must be handled with care.
Position them as shown in figure 18.
2. Open the bag of 9 moulded ceramic logs. All of the logs except two
are the same. Take the largest log (numbered 16) and place it as shown.
Care should be taken to ensure that the orientation is correct and the
log fits snugly into its position.
3. Take the two medium sized logs (numbered 15 and 8) position the log
numbered 8 on the left hand side as shown in figure 20, ensuring correct
orientation. Place the log numbered 15 on the right hand side as also
shown in figure 19, again ensuring correct orientation. Both these logs
will fit securely into their allocated position, they may require rotating
slightly to ensure this.
4. Now take the remaining large log (numbered 4) and position vertical-
ly as shown in figure 21, ensuring correct orientation. The base of this log
must rest securely on the front log strip. Take one of the smaller logs
(numbered 14) and position in between the two vertically positioned
logs ensuring the orientation is correct. Keep the spacing between these
logs uniform.
5. Finally, take the remaining two medium sized logs (numbered 5 and 7)
and place in a horizontal position shown, 5 first, resting on the front log
strip. 7 next resting on 5. Now take the smallest log (numbered 12) and
position in the orientation shown ensuring the log does not fall into the
matrix but rests securely on the allocated supports. Now take the final
log (numbered 14) and place in a horizontal position as shown. Ensure
there is even spacing between the logs and rotate if necessary to provide
a stable fit onto the matrix. The fuel bed layout is now complete.
IMPORTA T : The fire is designed to operate correctly with
the logs supplied when assembled according to the instructions.
