should be removed from the fire for cleaning.

Cleaning should be carried out in a well-ventilated area or in the open air by gently

brushing with the pieces held away from your face so that you avoid inhaling the dust.

We do not recommend the use of a normal domestic vacuum cleaner that may blow

dust back into the air. 

We suggest that you remove the ceramic fuel effect pieces in the reverse order to

that shown in the installer and owner guide supplied with the ceramic fuel effect. This
should have been placed inside or attached to this guide by the installer. 

Burner.

Remove any deposits of soot or other foreign matter from the the burner with a dry soft
brush. Be careful not to brush any particles into the open holes. Remove any particles
from the holes with a vacuum cleaner fitted with a soft brush attachment. 

Do not poke

wire, etc. into the holes in the burner.

CERAMIC FUEL EFFECT REFITTING

The installer and owner guide for the ceramic fuel effect is separate from this guide. The
installer may have attached  it to this guide or placed it inside. It is important that the
installer and owner guide for the ceramic fuel effect is followed correctly. If replacing
the ceramic fuel effect, where a new guide is supplied, follow the installer and owner
guide supplied with the replacement fuel effect.
Keep the replacement installer and owner guide with this owner guide for future
reference.

MAINTENANCE

Regular maintenance.

In order to achieve and maintain high levels of personal safety and performance
efficiency, it is essential that the opening at the back of the fire and the flue are kept
clear of any form of obstruction. It is possible that deposits of mortar or soot could fall
and accumulate causing the flue to be blocked or restricted and so preventing proper
clearance of dangerous exhaust fumes.
In the United Kingdom it is the law that a landlord must have any gas appliance, flue
and pipework which is situated in a tenant’s premises checked for safety at least every
twelve months by a competent person (In the U.K, a CORGI registered installer).
We recommend that all gas appliances and their flues, wherever situated, are checked
annually.
