1. General Notes

Th

It provides radiant and convected heat using the latest burner technology. As well as having a variable 

heat output, these fires also utilise a special control system that allows the appliance to use double 

burners* for high output or a single burner for lower outputs.

When fitted with double burner system, the front burners is designated as the “Main” Burner, the second 

burner will be designated as the “Effect or Auxiliary” Burners. The Effect burner can be switched ON or 

Off whilst the appliance is alight.

Before Installation, check that the local distribution conditions, nature of the gas and pressure, and 

adjustment of the appliance are compatible.

This appliance is intended for use on a gas installation with a governed meter.

This Gas Installation may only be installed by a registered professional competent person (Gas Safe 

installer in the UK).  The installation must adhere to the requirements of the local and national Building

etc. and that no objects are leant against the terminal or guard.
