2.4 Technical data
Together with the user manual, an additional data sheet with all technical data is provided

2.5 Discolouration of walls and ceilings
2.5.1 The cause of discolouration of walls and ceilings
Airborne dust particles are found in all living areas, even if these are vacuumed regularly. If
the quantity of dust particles remains limited, you will not be troubled. However, if these
particles are present in larger quantities, and especially if the air is contaminated by soot
and tar particles, for example from burning candles or smoking cigarettes, there will be a
poor indoor climate.
Cold air in a heated living area slowly flows over the floor to the combustion appliance. In
the convection system of the appliance this air is heated, creating a rising hot air column,
which is dispersed via the ceiling throughout the room. In this air there are polluting
particles which settle on cold and often damp surfaces. This problem can occur especially in
a still wet new building and can discolour walls or ceilings.

2.5.2 Preventing discolouration of walls and ceilings
◼With a new fireplace or following renovation wait at least six months before
ignition. The building moisture must have completely vanished from walls, floor,
and ceiling.
◼Burn as few candles and oil lamps as possible and keep the wick as short as
possible. Candles and oil lamps result in significant quantities of soot particles.
◼Do not smoke indoors. Smoke from cigarettes and cigars contains, among other
things, tar substances, which, when heated, also settle on damp walls.
In a poor indoor climate, discolouration can also occur to a lesser extent above
radiators and light fittings and near ventilation grilles.
3Safety
3.1 General
Our appliances are equipped with a built-in thermostat and a built-in safety system. A
thermocouple prevents further gas supply should the pilot flame go out.
3.2 What should I do if I smell gas?
◼Do not ignite the unit
◼Do not operate any electrical switches
◼Do not use a phone in the building
◼Go outside and call the gas company at once. Follow the instructions of the gas
company closely
◼Call the fire department if the gas company is not reachable.

3.3 Safety instructions
Use the appliance solely for heating, and not for other purposes.
Do not ignite the appliance until it is fully installed.
Have the installation and the annual maintenance done by a skilled professional or by
a maintenance company specialising in gas fireplaces.
Only use the original Well Straler terminals. Our appliances are approved for use with
these terminals and can therefore not be used with other terminals.
All elements of the air supply and the gas flue must have at least 25 mm of overlap
when fitted together and be fastened with clamps or stainless steel Parker screws so they
do not slide apart.
Arrange the burner decoration exactly as per the directions.
Do not put flammable substances on the burner decoration.
Keep the area around the pilot flame clear, and do not put any burner decoration
close to the pilot flame.
The pilot flame is the safety mechanism and fuse of the appliance. Wait at least five
minutes to relight the pilot flame if the pilot flame has gone out.
Never operate the appliance without the window.
Ensure the window is correctly fitted.
Replace a broken or cracked pane before reusing the appliance.
Do not make any changes to the appliance.
Only clean the appliance on the outside. Never use abrasive or corrosive cleaning
agents.
Close the gas tap and notify your installer if the unit has made a banging or popping
noise when igniting, or if it does not ignite properly.
Shut off the gas supply and contact your installer in the event of problems and/or if
the appliance is operating poorly.

Keep flammable objects and materials such as curtains at least 1 meter away from
the appliance or the flue pipes.
The components of the gas flue must not come into contact with combustible
material.
Do not put flammable materials, plants, etc. in front of the gas flue.
Do not store flammable products near the appliance.
Do not put anything against or on the appliance.
Do not spray an aerosol on the appliance when it is in use.
Do not sit on the appliance.
The window and the housing of the appliance are active parts of the appliance and
can become extremely hot. Do not touch these parts when the appliance is in operation.
Children or persons who are unaware of the operation of the appliance may only be
in the vicinity of the appliance when supervised.
Put an additional screen in front of the appliance to enhance safety in places where
small children, the elderly, or the disabled are present.
Never search for a leak using a flame. Lubricate the parts where gas escape can occur
using soapy water.
Close the gas tap if the appliance is not used for a long period (summer, holiday, ...)
It is possible that other appliances which also work using an RF signal such as a garage
door, car keys, or a TV will interfere with the proper functioning of the fireplace.
Never mix new and old batteries or different types of batteries. If using different
batteries together, the batteries may overheat, leak and/or explode.
