GENERAL NOTES
Gas Safety Regulations (for installation & use) 1998
In your own interest and that of safety, it is law that
all gas appliances are installed by competent persons
in accordance with the above regulations. Failure to
install appliances correctly could lead to
prosecution.
NB: The Council of Registered Gas Installers, whose
members are identified by the emblem shown here, are all
required to work to the recognised standards.
Cleaning and Maintenance
Periodical maintenance should be carried out by a
registered installer.You are recommended to free the
heater of dust before and occasionally during the heating
season. In time, a deposit can form on the inside of the
glass that is best removed with a damp cloth and a non-
abrasive cleaning agent (such as copper polish). Do not use
abrasives when cleaning the heater. Damage to the casing
varnish, caused by anything being put on the appliance, is
not covered by the guarantee.
The chimney should be inspected regularly, to check that
all flue gasses are discharged through the chimney.
Excessive accumulation of soot in the chimney should be
avoided.The soot that does form should be removed, only
ever when cold, with a brush or vacuum cleaner.The
ventilation should also be checked regularly, to make sure
there are no obstructions.
NB: When replacing the thermocouple, the coupling nut in
the gas control block should first be tightened by hand and
then tightened a quarter-turn with an open-ended spanner.
Discoloration of walls and ceiling
Brown discoloration is an annoying problem, which is
difficult to solve. It can be caused by dust burning as a
result of poor ventilation, for example, or by cigarette
smoke or candles.
These problems can be avoided by ensuring that the room
the heater is in is properly ventilated.A good guideline for
ventilation is:
New buildings : 3.24 m
3
/ hour per m
2
floor
surface of the room.
Existing buildings : 25.20 m
3
/ hour for a room.
Use candles and oil lamps as little as possible, keeping the
wick as short as possible.While they Enhance the
atmosphere, candles and oil lamps also cause the
formation of large quantities of unhealthy soot particles in
your home. Cigarette and cigar smoke contains tar, which
upon heating will precipitate on cold or damp walls. If you
have a newly cemented chimney or have had any other
reconstructions / renovations done, you are advised to
wait at least 6 weeks before lighting your fire, to allow the
walls, floor and ceiling to dry out completely.
Lighting the heater for the first time
There can be an unpleasant smell when you light the
heater for the first time.This is caused by the varnish
evaporating and will disappear after a few hours.We
therefore advise you, on initial use, to heat the appliance at
the highest setting while ventilating the room it is installed
in well.
Extra protection
This heater meets the normal safety standards regarding
surface temperatures, but physical contact with heated
surfaces should be avoided where possible.An additional
guard is recommended to protect young children and
elderly, infirmed or handicapped people.
Before you start using your fire, it is wise to clean the glass
front.This to prevent burning in of possible dirt into the glass.
Disposal
When replacing or otherwise removing the appliance, it
should be disposed of in compliance with current
regulations.
Shut off the connecting tap with coupling before
commencing disassembly. Undo the coupling between the
connecting tap and the appliance.The whole appliance can
now be disassembled and removed.
