SETTING BUTTONS FAN BURNER PATTERN
Do not attempt to light the pilot by hand.
Wait for five minutes to clear out any gas.
Then smell for gas, including near the floor.
If you smell gas, STOP! Follow “B” in the
safety information. If you don’t smell gas,
go to the next step.
Press the first control button firmly. This
operates the built in safety device and
starts the electronic spark.
Place the gas control in the off position (all

For your convenience the controls on your new Flame Fire are situated under the cover on the
top right-hand side of the fire. All necessary adjustments to the operation of your fire can be
made with these controls.
•TO TURN ON THE PILOT
Press the front control button firmly. This
operates the built-in safety device and
starts the electronic spark. The pilot burner
will ignite. Check that the burner has lit and
continue to hold the button down for up to
15 seconds. The spark will continue while
the button is held down.
If the burner does not remain alight, push
the button again and release it. This will
return it to the “OFF” position. Wait 30
seconds, then repeat the ignition
procedure. (The ignition button must be in
the “OFF” position before attempting re-
ignition) If, for any reason, the fire goes out
during operation wait a minimum of 3
minutes before attempting to relight.
•TO TURN ON THE HEAT
Press the control buttons in order from front
to rear, this will ignite additional burners as
shown in the diagram. There is no need to

This is simply done by releasing the control
buttons in order from rear to front.
•TO TURN THE UNIT OFF
Press and release the buttons in order from
rear to front until all 3 buttons are in the
OPERATION
“OFF” (UP) position. The fan will continue
to operate until the unit cools down.

operated on the LOW speed or OFF.
On the HIGH fire setting the fan runs
automatically on HIGH speed.
•NOTE: When the fire is turned on, there
will be a delay in the operation of the fan.
This ensures that a cold draft does not
occur while the fire is warming up.
When the fire is turned off, the fan will
continue to run until the fire has cooled
down.
•POWER FAILURE
Your unit can be used on the low setting
during a power failure. However, if switched
off, it cannot be relit unless power is
available. The appliance is protected by
an overheat switch, and may cut out if used
on the HIGH setting.
•TO TURN OFF GAS TO APPLIANCE
Turn off the appliance by operating the on/
off button and turn off the power at the wall
switch. Disconnect the electric plug. This
will isolate the supply and prevent the
solenoid valve from opening.

• Position the heater.
• Suspend a plumbline from the ceiling to
the centre of the flue socket.
• Mark the centre of the flue in the ceiling.
• Make a small hole in the ceiling and
double check that the flue system will be
at least 1” clear of combustible
materials.
• Cut the hole for the flue.
• Fit the ceiling plate, flue and decorative
cover.
The decorative cover must be able to slide
up to give access to the flue collar. The
inner flue must be supported independently
of the heater but allowing sufficient
movement to allow connections to and
disconnections from the flue collar.
It is recommended that the flue be
installed vertically only. If installation
prevents this then there must be at
least 4 feet of vertical flue before any
bends. The flue must not fall below

The logset is packed inside the unit and
the packaging must be removed prior to
installing the logset in its correct position.
• Open both side panels.
• Remove fasteners on both sides of the
top glass retainer.
• Lift retainer away from unit.
• Loosen screws on bottom glass retainer.
• Carefully lift glass out of bottom channel.
• Carefully remove log packaging.
The logset has two holes underneath for
location onto the pins inside the unit.
Place the logset into the unit ensuring that
the locating pins enter the two locating
holes on the bottom face of the logset.
Gently place loose ember bed material
in front of the front log only. Do not
pour as dust particles from the plastic
bag may block the burner ports.
Level it with a pencil or screwdriver and
remove excess material. Note: The ember
bed material must be placed after the logs
are fitted. If the logs are to be removed for
any reason, the ember bed material must
be removed first and replaced after the
logs are refitted. Any material that prevents
the logs sitting flat on the burner top can
upset the burning pattern and performance
of the heater.
• Replace glass and top glass retainer,
tighten bottom glass retainer screws.
Note: Fit glass so that the joint in the glass
seal is at the bottom.
• Take care not to damage seals.
• Reinstall side panels.
LOG INSTALLATION
WARNING: Failure to position the parts
in accordance with these diagrams or
failure to use only parts specifically
approved with this appliance may result in
property damage or personal injury.
Note: When first lighting the heater, the
logs need to be burnt in, which may take
approximately 2 hours. The flame color
may change after the initial burning in
period.

• TESTING PROCEDURE
Turn gas supply on and plug the unit into
the power supply. (Caution 115V)
•TO CHECK BURNER PRESSURE
• Refer to Rating Plate.
• Remove test point plug and attach
manometer to test point.
The test point is on the front injector
block.
• Light heater, turn to High heat setting and
check pressure.
• If adjustments are necessary, the
regulator is situated on the front of the
gas control.
• After checking pressure, turn the unit off,
remove manometer and replace test
point plug.
• Turn the heater on and off a few times to
check ignition.
• When you are satisfied that the heater is
working correctly, reassemble panels.
• All burner aeration is factory preset and
cannot be adjusted.
• If you are unable to get the unit to operate
correctly, refer to Troubleshooting on
Page 16, before contacting your local
service contact as listed on Page 3.
• It may take approximately 2 hours for the
logs to achieve their full flame pattern
and glow.
• During the initial burning in period,
some smoke and smell may be
experienced. The heater should be
run on the high position in a well
ventilated room until these
dissipate.

IMPORTANT MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
•ANNUAL INSPECTION
The unit should be inspected at least once
a year by a qualified service technician
including inspection of the flue system.
The appliance area must be kept clear and
free from combustible materials, gasoline
and other flammable vapors and liquids.
•CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS.
Before cleaning, make sure the electrical
power and gas are turned off and that the
unit has cooled down.
WARNING: Do not clean the glass or unit
when hot.
Do not remove any internal wiring covers.
Do not use abrasive cleaners.
Do not use solvent based cleaners.
•OUTER CASE
The outer case of the fire place should be
cleaned with a soft, damp cloth.
Do not use aerosol polishes to clean the
casing while the fire is in operation.
Do not damage or distort any part of the
heater.
Do not use wet cloth or spray cleaners on
burners.
•VENT MAINTENANCE
The flue should be inspected annually for
blockages and signs of damage.
•VISUAL INSPECTION OF FLAME
Check that the pilot and burner flames are
operating normally.
If the flames appear either very short or very
long and streaky or are producing smoke
or soot deposits then there may be a
problem with the heater or the gas supply.
MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
A heater should not be used if you suspect
there may be a problem, and a service
agent must be called to investigate the
cause of the problem.
The main burners are designed to produce
some yellow flame but should not produce
smoke or excessive soot.
NOTE: The flames may take up to 15
minutes to settle from ignition when heater
is cold.
• ELECTRIC MOTOR MAINTENANCE
Motors are permanently lubricated and
need no lubrication.
Keep fan and motor free of dust and dirt,
clean annually.
