To light the fire.

The slide control is shown in figure 2.

1. 

Slide the control button to the bottom (ignition) position

marked  

. In this position, the electronic ignition system

should cause a series of sparks which should light the pilot.
Within four seconds of the pilot igniting, the main burner
should light at its minimum setting.

If no sparks are produced to light the pilot, the battery may
need replacing. Details of battery replacement are given
further on in this manual.

Until you can obtain a replacement battery the fire can be lit with a taper as described
later in the instructions.

2. 

Keep the button at the ignition position for a further ten seconds. This will prevent

the flame-sensing device from shutting off the gas while its probe warms up as
explained above.

3.

If low heat is required, release the button. The button will automatically spring up to

the low heat position shown in figure 2 (See note i).

4. 

For a higher heat level slide the button upwards. The burner flames and heat output

will gradually increase until the button reaches the high heat position shown in figure 2.
When the button reaches the high heat position you will feel a check to its movement.
Do not slide the button above the high heat position unless you want to turn the fire off
(See note i).

Notes:

i)

If the flames go out while setting the control, repeat the full lighting procedure. If

the flames repeatedly go out have the fire serviced.

ii)

Please note. When first turned on the flames will appear predominantly blue. The

coals will take time to warm up. Although some glow will be seen after approximately
ten minutes, the full visual effect will only be apparent after a somewhat longer time.

iii)

The appliance will operate to its maximum potential if the flue is primed during

the first 20 - 30 minutes of operation. To do this, simply slide the control button to its
highest setting. This will also burn off any carbon deposits that may have formed during
previous operations.

iv)

If operating the appliance for long periods it is beneficial occasionally to change

the settings. This will also help to remove any carbon deposits that may form during
operation.
