All models - 225mm x 225mm (9in x 9in) brick or stone.
125mm (5in) minimum diameter lined brick or stone.
125mm (5in) minimum diameter twin wall flue conforming to BS 715.
Pre-cast block flue complying with BS 1289 or BS EN 1858.
This appliance UST 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 or BS EN 1858 (and meeting certain dimensional require-
ments), or a suitable flue box complying with the constructional requirements of BS 715. The flue box must be installed onto a suitable
non-combustible insulating surface at least 12mm thick, covering the entire base area of the box.
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 have an effective height of at least three metres, 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 practi-
cal, the restriction must be fixed in the fully open position. The flue must be checked before installation by using a smoke pellet or sim-
ilar 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 appliance (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 in a pre-cast block flue complying with BS 1289 or BS EN 1858. In accordance with BS 1289 part
1, pre-cast flues built with directly plastered faces (front or rear) are not correctly installed as to ensure proper operation with any type
of gas fire. In some instances of this flue construction, temperature cracking of the surface plaster may occur through no fault of the
appliance. An air gap or some form of insulation material should be installed to prevent normal flue temperatures from damaging wall
surfaces. Pre-cast flues must be checked for mortar fangs and correct installation of joints, flue sections in loft space and terminals.
This appliance has been tested for use with circular flues of a minimum internal diameter of 125mm.This appliance is suitable for use
with a “lightweight” surround and back panel of 150°C minimum rating.
The fireplace opening should be inspected and repairs made where necessary. Any chair brick or fireback may be left in situ, providing
that the dimensional requirements for debris collection space and spigot clearances are met. See figure 1.
The opening WIDTH and HEIGHT dimensions should be between 350mm and 450mm wide, and 540mm to 575mm high. For flues used
with solid fuel, the minimum WIDTH is 380mm.
Opening DEPTH should be 200mm or greater for a clay/cement lined or Pre-cast flue which is new, unused, or previously used only with
a gas appliance. DEPTH should be 240mm or greater for a flue used for solid fuel of oil burning appliances. Opening DEPTHS include
any plaster or infill panels which form part of the installation.

To enable the products of combustion to be cleared properly up the flue, the outlet at the back of the appliance must have a 50mm min-
imum clearance between it and the back wall of the opening or any other obstruction. The area immediately above the outlet must form
a smooth path into the flue.
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 fireframe. Combustible materials, such as wood, may be
fitted to within 100mm of either side of the fireplace opening, providing the forward projection does not exceed 100mm. Any com-
bustible 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. If spillage is detected when commissioning the appli-
ance, then amongst other problems there may be insufficient natural ventilation for correct operation of the flue. If the appliance does
not spill with the windows open, but spillage is detected with the windows closed, this demonstrates a lack of natural ventilation. If
spillage is still detected with the windows open, the flue is at fault. Installation of an air brick is the best solution to lack of ventilation.
Any ventilation fitted must comply with BS 5871 part 2 and BS 5440 part 2. Vents fitted under or within the immediate vicinity of the
appliance must not be used as adverse effects to the operation of the ODS may occur. Spillage detected during commissioning is almost
always a result of poor flue performance that cannot be corrected by any amount of ventilation. For Republic of Ireland ventilation may
be required, see IS 813, ICP3, IS 327, and any other rules in force.
This appliance can be fitted into a number of proprietary flue
boxes provided that the minimum dimensions shown in figure 2
are complied with.
Constructional Note: The frame of the fire, any back panel or
other infill panels, and the flue box must be sealed together so that
there is no possibility of leakage between them. Adequate clear-
ances to combustible materials (e.g. false chimney breast con-
struction) must be maintained.
The manufacturers’ instructions for fitting the prefabri-
cated box shall be complied with at all times. To fit the fire
using the cable fixing kit, some minor adaption may be necessary
for certain flue boxes. A check should be made to ensure the fire-
box does not obscure the flue box outlet. The firebox, base of the
flue box, and hearth below may be drilled to allow plugs and
screws to secure installation. It is important that the sealing
requirements of the appliance are met at all times and that the flue
box is well sealed to any back or infill panel. Note: The DEPTH
dimension is inclusive of any back or infill panel.
Stand the carton the right way up, cut the strapping bands and remove the top endcap. Read all the instructions before continuing to
unpack or install this appliance. Remove the box containing the firefront, and the bags containing the ceramic components. Remove the
cardboard packing pieces, and any other bags or boxes containing fittings or other parts. When all loose parts have been removed, the
outer sleeve may be lifted off to reveal the appliance. Check that the components supplied correlate with the component checklist given
in section 7.1. Please dispose of all the packaging materials at your local recycling centre.

Note: Ensure that the gas supply is isolated before commencing installa-
tion of the appliance.
The fireplace opening and environment must be in compliance with specifications
laid down in the appropriate sections of these instructions. Remove the appliance
from the carton as described previously and stand on a dust sheet or similar. Place
the coals/pebbles, ceramics and fixings safely to one side. Remove the burner from
the assembly by removing the two screws retaining the tray legs. The tray is now free
and may be lifted away.
SPIGOT RESTRICTOR :
If fitting the fire into a Class 1 or good Class 2 flue, attach the spigot restrictor to
the rear of the appliance using screws provided as shown in figures 3 and 4. If spillage
is detected during the commissioning of the appliance, the spigot restrictor should
be removed immediately.
SUPP Y PIPE ENTRY :
Knockout holes are provided in the rear and sides of the firebox for use where con-
cealed pipework is required. Where necessary, knock out the appropriate hole with
a sharp tap from a hammer, and fit the rubber grommet supplied. A small incision can
now be made in the rubber to slip snugly around the outside of the pipe and sleev-
ing. Do not install or use the appliance without the seal in place. If a hole is
inadvertently opened, reseal with an intact grommet. Failure to fit the seal correctly
will cause flue suction to act upon the area under the burner, resulting in poor per-
formance and intermittent cutting out of the burner.
SEA ING STRIPS :
Apply the self adhesive sealing strips to the back
of the fireframe as shown in figure 5 to give a
continuous seal.
S IDE CONTRO MODE S : The control
knob is supplied as a loose part. Insert the control
knob into the hole in the top of the slide control
spindle (Figure 6). Secure the control knob in posi-
tion using the 4 nyloc nut provided. Affix the Slide
control position marking sticker on the trim next
to the control knob as shown in figure 16.
Before installing the fire, check the flue using a smoke pellet. All of the smoke should travel up the flue and exit correctly from the ter-
minal.
If problems are found, DO NOT fit the fire until corrective action is completed. Protect the decorative hearth whilst pushing the fire-
box in and out of the opening. Part of the packaging will make an ideal hearth saver pad. Before running the gas supply into the open-
ing, offer up the firebox to the fireplace to check the fit is good.
Ensure that it slides in correctly, the sealing face sits flat and square to the wall or infill panel, and that the base is firm on the floor of
the opening as no leaks are permissible here. At this stage it is essential to ensure that the spigot outlet of the fire is not restricted in
any way. Remove the firebox and take any necessary measurements before making good and preparing for final installation.
CAB E FIXING :
For fixing of the fire by the cable method, see the relevant section. The cable fixing locations should be marked on the back of the open-
ing and the holes drilled. Fit the wall plugs and eyebolts to these holes.
SCREW FIXING :
For fixing by screw, mark and drill the fireframe or base, and the relevant points in the opening or on the wall. wall plugs will again be
required. Pre-punched holes are not provided for this purpose to allow you to choose the optimum positions.
GAS SUPP Y :
Following preparation for the fixing method, the concealed gas supply, where required, can now be put into place. Refer to the gas sup-
ply section for suggested pipe routes. The ends of the sleeving in which the gas pipe is run should be sealed. The ends of the 8mm sup-
ply pipe should be temporarily sealed to prevent the ingress of debris during fixing.

9.0 PREPARING THE OPENING
Figure 6

When the opening is ready for installation of the fire, the gas supply may be routed as per the examples shown in figure 7.
Wherever a concealed connection is made a rubber grommet must be used to seal the firebox.The gas pipe must be suitably protected
where it passes through fireplace openings. Any sleeving should be sealed to the pipe at its ends. This appliance is fitted with an inlet restric-
tor elbow. 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. The open end of the supply pipe should be
sealed temporarily during the installation to prevent the ingress of dirt and dust.
Drill four holes using a 8mm masonry bit to a depth of 42mm in the positions shown in figure 8. If the fireplace configuration does not allow
the exact layout given, the eyebolts should be
positioned as close to the correct layout as
possible. Before finally fitting cables, ensure the
self adhesive sealing strips are in position on
the back of the appliance frame. The fireframe
must be sealed evenly to the fireplace opening
all around the periphery. Thread the tensioning
cables through the holes in the top of the fire-
box, then the eyelets, and finally through the
lower holes in the back of the firebox, as shown
in figure 9. Note : The burner must be
removed as per relevant section to gain access
to the cable adjusters. Push the appliance back
into the fireplace, centralise, and pull the loose
tensioning cables through the holes into the
firebox.
Thread the tensioner bolts onto the cables,
with the nuts screwed down close to the ten-
sioner head. Slide the screwed nipple onto the
cable, pull cable tight, and tighten nipple. The
tension of the cable may now be adjusted by using a suitable spanner on the tensioner nuts to pull the
appliance tightly against the fireplace opening. Visually inspect the seal and reseat if necessary. Do not
cut off excess cable. Surplus cable must not be cut off, as it will be impossible to refit the fire after
servicing. Coil up the surplus cable, and locate at rear of firebox.
Temporarily fit the burner tray and ensure a suitable gas route can be achieved. Place the burner tray into the firebox making sure that the
rear lugs locate properly on to the ledge in the firebox.
Manual and remote control models : Fit the two securing screws through the tray legs to secure the assembly.
Slide control models : Fit the four securing screws - two through the
tray rear first and then two through the legs of the tray to secure the assem-
bly - see figure 10. Reconnect the slide mechanism by replacing the 4 nut and
serrated washer on the assembly.
All models : Connect the gas supply and tighten the gas connections. Fit the
deflector baffle to
the two locations
on the front face of
the firetray as
shown in figure 11.
Screws are provid-
ed for this purpose.
The baffle should
be level with the
lower edge of the
tray. Place contemporary firefront in front of the fire temporarily to check the
angle of the baffle. The front should fit well and the control devices beneath should
not be visible to the eye. Realign the baffle slightly if necessary to achieve the cor-
rect fit.
Purge the gas supply thoroughly to remove air and dirt/debris BEFORE connec-
tion. Now disconnect the inlet restrictor elbow from the inlet pipe.
Connect the previously installed gas supply to inlet restrictor elbow, and re-fit the
restrictor elbow to the inlet pipe of the appliance.

Please refer to section 6.0 of the user instructions.
All models : Remove all protective film and packaging material before fitting.
One-piece frame models : The appliance is supplied with a one piece decorative frame that
is attached to the front of the firebox with the magnets provided. Position the firefront in front
of the burner.
Three-piece frame models : The clip-on frame pieces should be hooked over the outer edges
of the fireframe, (figure 12), and pushed firmly home. The sides should be fixed first, followed by
the top bar, which overlaps the sides. Push firmly home.
IMPORTANT : Due to the possibility of sharp edges, care should be taken when han-
dling the three-piece frame components. The use of protective gloves is strongly rec-
ommended.
Cast frame models : Remove the decorative frame from it’s protective packaging. The frame is retained onto the firebox with a mount-
ing bracket at the top of the frame and three magnets on each leg of the frame.
Turn on and test the gas supply up to the fire for any leaks, in accordance with the current edition of BS6891. When the appliance is first
used, protective oils coating the firebox may burn off. It is advisable to ventilate the room during this period for at least one hour.
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.
The fire features a ‘twin spark’ ignition system to aid lighting,
Push the control knob in fully and turn anti-clockwise through both of the SPARK positions, keep-
ing fully depressed, hold there for a few seconds. If 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.
Continue turning anti-clockwise through the spark clicks to the nine o’clock position, ensuring
the pilot has lit. If 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. If
the pilot is extinguished during use, wait three minutes before repeating the ignition procedure.
To achieve the HIGH 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.

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 burner con-
trol knob setting. Adjust the main burner control knob to the desired setting.
If the pilot is extinguished during use of the fire, you UST 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 suffi-
ciently 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. It 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. It is necessary to press buttons 1 and 2 (see figure 15) simulta-
neously to turn the fire up.
To turn the fire down press button 3 only.
The pilot is visible through the left hand side of the matrix. When cold, the coals or pebbles may be
rotated for good viewing.
Push the slide control knob fully downwards to the SPARK position, and hold there for approxi-
mately ten seconds. Now release the knob and the pilot should stay alight. When the pilot light has
established, move the slide control knob upwards to the LOW flame setting. If the pilot is extin-
guished during use, wait three minutes before repeating the ignition procedure.To achieve the HIGH
setting, move the slide control knob upwards to the HIGH flame setting. The fire can also be set to
operate anywhere between HIGH and LOW by moving the control knob to an intermediate posi-
tion.
To turn the fire OFF, move the slide control knob upwards fully to the position marked ‘O’.
The spark gap between the spark electrode and the thermocouple should be 3.5 - 4.5mm to produce a good spark.
There should be no need to adjust this. If under any circumstances the electric spark fails, the pilot may be lit manually by proceeding
with the ignition sequence as previously described, and after moving the control knob through the spark position, the knob should be
held in (slide control models - down) and the pilot lit with a taper.
Light the fire on the HIGH 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 operating pressure.
Any significant variation in the operating pressure could
indicate a supply problem. If the operating 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 supplier. If the operating pressure is too low, then check the meter/governor pressure with the appliance running. Upon satisfac-
tory checking of the operating pressure, turn the fire off, disconnect the pressure gauge and refit the test point screw. Light the fire and
check for gas soundness. In the event that the operating 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). If the fire shuts down during use for no apparent reason then several things
may be suspected. If a door or window has been opened creating a draught, then pilot disturbance is the problem, and removal of the
draught should resolve this. The gas pressure reaching the fire must also be checked (again, recall your installer to check and rectify any
problem). The thermocouple connection into the back of the gas control valve may also have worked loose during installation, simply
get the installer to tighten. If 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. Relight the fire and carry out a spillage test. DO NOT allow the appli-
ance 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 UST be of a type supplied for the purpose by the appliance manufacturer. If 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 HIGH 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 indicates that spillage is occurring. If 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.
DO NOT allow the fire to be used until the test is satisfactorily passed.
All instructions must be handed to the user for safekeeping. Show the customer how to light and control the fire. After commissioning
the appliance, the customer should be instructed on the safe use of the appliance and the need for regular servicing. Frequency of serv-
ice depends on usage, but UST be carried out at least once annually. Advise that cleaning of the fire may be achieved when the fire is
cold using a damp cloth and mild detergent on most surfaces.
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 wash the coals or ceramics
with water.
Advise that the fire will 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.). If the fire shuts down, this system may be in operation. If
spillage is suspected, SWITCH APPLIANCE OFF and call in the installer to investigate any problems.
Isolate the fire from the gas supply. Ensure that the fire is fully cold before attempting service. A suggested procedure for servicing is
detailed below.

The fire and flue should be checked on an annual basis to ensure all of the products 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 UST be carried out at least once annually. Servicing
must be carried out by a GAS SAFE registered engineer.
Cleaning of the coals/pebbles may be carried out by following the instructions given in section 8.0 of these instructions. The Installation
instructions carry full servicing details for the use of the installer.
If 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.
Before carrying out any of the following operations, ensure that the fire is OFF and completely cold.
FIREFRONT - Any dust accumulating in the firefront may be removed using a vacuum cleaner or dry cloth. Heavy stains may be removed
by using a damp cloth and mild household detergent. Brass parts of the firefront may be cleaned using a suitable brass cleaner. Replace
the front centrally against the fire after cleaning. Do not use a damp cloth to clean cast iron fronts (Soho, and Finsbury models) as this
can cause the fronts to rust.
PAINTED AREAS - These can be cleaned using a dry cloth.
COALS AND CERA ICS - 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 compo-
nents in plastic bags and dispose of at proper refuse sites as directed.
Re-fit the ceramics carefully by referring to section 6.0 of these instructions.
Handset - Remove cover from rear of handset and insert 1 x ‘PP3’ (9 volt) battery - Replace cover
Appliance - Ensure appliance is off and cool. Remove cover from top of receiver box. The cover is protected by reflective foil, and
located towards the right hand side, underneath the burner unit. Insert 4 x ‘AA’ (1.5 volt) batteries - Replace cover.
Ensure appliance is off and cool. The battery is located in the front of the ignition unit, on
the right hand side of the burner (shown in figure 20). Unscrew the battery holder cap. Insert 1
