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 light-
ing.
To Light The Pilot
- Push in the right control knob (the pilot lighting knob) and, while keeping
it depressed, turn anticlockwise throughThe 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.
- When 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.
- If 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
- Partially depress the right control knob and turn to the main burner
position marked The main burner should now light.
- The left-hand knob burner is for flame adjustment. Turning it anti-clock-
wise should gradually increase the flame height and heat output. Turning
clockwise reduces the flame height and heat output.
- The 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.
