OPERATING YOUR FIRE

How to light your fire.

The controls are shown in figure 1.

Check that the main isolating switch is on.

Remove the fire front cover / fire front. The controls are behind this cover.

Press the "ON" switch. Within a few seconds, the fan motor should start and a small

light will appear on the control box next to the switches. After a few seconds the light
will go out.

Depress the control knob and turn partially to the "PILOT/IGN" position until you

feel some resistance.

Keep the knob depressed at this position for a few seconds to allow gas to flow to

the pilot.

While keeping the knob depressed, turn to the "PILOT/IGN" position. While

turning, a spark should light the pilot. The pilot flame can be seen through the ceramic
fuel effect at the front left side.

Keep the knob depressed at the "PILOT/IGN" position for a further ten seconds

then release it. The pilot flame should stay alight.

OWNER GUIDE

PLEASE NOTE

When operating your fire for the first time, some vapours may be given off which may
cause a slight odour and could possibly set off any smoke alarms in the immediate
vicinity. These vapours are quite normal with new appliances. They are totally harmless
and will disappear after a few hours use.
