is required for this appliance. An openable window or louvre is also required. This
appliance is factory set for operation on the gas type, and at the pressure stated on the
appliance data plate.
The room size should be a minimum of
30m
3
(1059ft

)
to allow adequate circulation of air
and ensure the correct operation of the fire. This volume may include adjacent spaces but
these spaces must not be separated by a door. In order to convert from cubic feet (ft

) to
cubic meters (m
3
) divide the room volume (in ft
3
) by 35.3. This appliance is intended as a
secondary source of heat only and should not be used in a room without some form of
background heating present.
The appliance must not be installed in a bedroom, bathroom or any sleeping area. The
appliance does not require a flue system of any type as the catalytic converter cleans the
flue products to provide a complete combustion system, which is intrinsically safe.
The appliance must be installed by a competent person in accordance with Gas Safety
(Installation and Use) Regulations 1998 or rules in force. It is strongly recommended that a
CORGI registered engineer is used for this purpose, as they are the only persons approved

be no cause for concern. Accordingly, the room should be well ventilated with all windows
and doors open during this period.
Read all these instructions before commencing installation. All instructions must be
handed to user for safekeeping.
