1. As with any gas appliance, this fire must be
installed by a competent person. In the United
Kingdom, installation must be in accordance with
the latest edition of the Gas Safety (installation &
use) Regulations.
In the Republic of Ireland, installation must be in
accordance with all national and local regulations
in force.
2. If the fire is intended to be installed to a chimney
which was previously used for solid fuel, please
note that the chimney must be swept prior to
installation.
3. On no account must the fire stand on carpets or
other combustible materials. The fire must stand
on a non-combustible hearth surface. The hearth
material must be at least 600mm wide x 500mm
deep x 12mm thick.
4. Clearances to combustible and non-combustible
surfaces must be at least those shown in figure 1.
Please bear this in mind if altering the room.
5. Never put any paper or other material on the fire.
Never add any extra coals above the number stated
in these instructions. This could cause a safety
hazard.
6. The cast iron top, front, rear and sides of this stove
are considered to be working surfaces and so will
become very hot when in use. Always take care
when using this appliance. A suitable guard which
complies with BS 6539 or 6778 should be used for
the protection of young children, the elderly and
the infirm. Such a guard is also recommended for
the protection of pet animals.
7. Always switch the stove off and allow to cool before
handling. Note that this appliance retains heat for
some time after it has been switched off.
8. Never place clothing, towels or any other fabrics on
or over the fire.
9. This appliance is fitted with a device which will
automatically shut off the supply of gas to the fire
if, for any reason, the flames go out. If this device
does operate or if the fire is turned off accidentally
or intentionally, always wait three minutes before
attempting to relight.
10. This stove must never be used with the windows
open or with either glass panel damaged or
removed. The windows should always be secured
with the locking screw (See “Cleaning your stove”).
If either window is damaged or will not close
securely the fire must be turned off and not used
until the window is changed or corrected by a
competent service engineer.
11. If the house is left unoccupied for a long period we
recommend that the stove is turned fully off.
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.
This fire is supplied with ceramic “coals” to simulate a real coal
fire. After some use, the firebox walls and coals may change
colour. This is quite normal.

OPERATING YOUR STOVE
The Flame Sensing & Flue Blockage Safety System.
For your safety, this appliance is fitted with a flue blockage safety device that will shut down the appliance in the event of abnormal flue
conditions. This device is NOT a substitute for an independently mounted Carbon Monoxide detector.
The device will also automatically shut off the gas supply to the fire if the pilot flame goes out for any reason. If the device starts to shut
off the gas frequently, get expert advice.
The system incorporates a probe that senses that the heat from the pilot flame is correct. If this probe is cool, the device will prevent any
gas flow unless the control knob is kept depressed at the PILOT/IGN position.
If, for any reason, the flames go out when the fire is hot or if the fire is turned off when
hot, always wait at least three minutes before attempting to relight.
Always make sure that the windows are securely closed before lighting.
To Light The Pilot
uPush in the right control knob (the pilot lighting knob) and, while keeping it
depressed, turn anticlockwise through the ignition position marked and up to
the pilot position marked . The spark should light the pilot. The pilot flame can
be seen by looking through the gap in the left front coal –See figure 3.
uWhen the pilot has lit, keep the right hand control knob depressed for a few
seconds to prevent the flame supervision device from shutting off the gas supply
while its probe warms up, as explained above, then release it.
uIf the pilot does not remain alight turn the knob back to the off position marked •.
Wait a few seconds and repeat the lighting sequence.
To Light the Main Burner
uPartially depress the right control knob and turn to the main burner position marked The main
burner should now light.
uThe left-hand knob is for burner flame adjustment. Turning it anticlockwise should gradually
increase the flame height and heat output. Turning clockwise reduces the flame height and heat
output.
uThe burner flame control does not have to be re-set every time the fire is lit. Once set, it can be left
at that position allowing you to use the right hand control only to ignite the burner at the set flame
height.
To Turn Off the Main Burner Only
uTurn the right hand control knob to the pilot position marked .
To Turn Off the Main Burner and Pilot
uTurn the right hand control knob to the pilot position marked . Push the knob in at this position and turn to the off position
marked •.
CLEANING YOUR STOVE
Turn the stove off and allow it to cool before attempting any cleaning. Note that it will retain heat for some time after it has been
turned off.
Cast Iron Surfaces
Regular dusting with a dry cloth is all that should normally be necessary. Any light stains should be removed with a damp cloth. Make sure
that the stove surfaces are completely dry before lighting.
If the paint needs retouching, allow the stove to cool completely. Brush any areas needing attention with a wire brush (Not enamelled
surfaces). Clean off any loose matter. Touch up with DANWIB aps high temperature stove paint. Apply the paint sparingly. Two light coats
are better than one thick coat.
Opening the Windows
The windows are secured with a locking screw. Remove the screw using the special key supplied with the
stove. See figure 4. Always secure the windows with the locking screw to prevent personal injury or
damage while the stove is in use.
The Glass Windows
Any stains on the glass can be removed with a non-abrasive cleaner such as a ceramic hob cleaner. Never
use abrasive cleaners. Clean the windows carefully in accordance with the instructions supplied with the
cleaner.

Ceramic Fuel Pieces and Firebox Walls
This appliance uses firebox walls and fuel effect pieces containing Refractory Ceramic Fibres (RCF), which
are man-made vitreous silicate fibres. Excessive exposure to this material may cause temporary irritation to
eyes, skin and respiratory tract. Consequently, it makes sense to take care when handling these articles to
ensure that the release of dust is kept to a minimum.
Light coatings of soot will usually be burnt off during the normal operation of the fire. Should any soot
accumulation become excessive, the fuel effect pieces should be removed from the fire for cleaning. The
front and rear base coals are fragile and should be handled
carefully. 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 which may blow dust back into the air. We suggest
that you remove the coals in the reverse order to that shown
in the fuel bed refitting instructions.
REFITTING THE CERAMIC WALLS &
FUEL PIECES
1. Place the ceramic walls against the firebox sides. Locate
the back edges of the walls in the tabs at the back
corners of the firebox. See figure 5.
2. Place the ceramic rear base coal in position. The front of
the coal must rest behind the two stops at the rear of the burner and not rest on top of
them. See figure 6.
3. Place the left front coal behind the metal lip
at the front of the burner. See figure 7.
4. Place the right front coal behind the metal
lip at the front of the burner. Its left side
should rest over the projection on the left
front coal. See figures 7 & 8.
5. The double top coals are marked “L” and
“R”. Place the coal marked “L” behind the
front left coal. Place the coal marked “R”
behind the front right coal. Place the single
coal between the two double coals. See
figure 9.
7. Close and secure the windows by refitting the locking screw.
MAINTENANCE & SERVICING
Regular maintenance
In order to achieve and maintain high levels of personal safety and performance efficiency,
it is essential that the flue is kept clear of any form of obstruction.
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.
