A control knob adaptor to assist the operation of the fire is included if required. If not, keep it for possible future use.

WARNING
TO TURN OFF
Push in the control knob slightly and turn it clockwise to the OFF position. If you wish, instead of turning to OFF you
may turn to PILOT and leave the pilot running permanently. The pilot consumes very little gas (0.2kW).

Battery Spark ignition
Depress the control knob and turn it slowly anticlockwise to
the pilot position. Depress the control knob, sparks will
be heard and the pilot should light which can be seen
below the right centre radiant. If the pilot did not light try
again, by depressing the control knob. When the pilot has
lit keep the knob depressed for a further 10 seconds to
activate the flame supervision device, otherwise the pilot
will go out again. Once the pilot is established turn the
control knob to the desired setting.
Piezo Spark Ignition
Push in the control knob and turn it anti-clockwise from
OFF position towards the pilot position until you feel
some resistance. With the knob still pushed in, pause for
one to two seconds and then continue to turn to pilot .
The piezo operates and two ‘clicks’ will be heard and the
pilot lights. Keep the control knob pushed in for a further
10 seconds before releasing. The pilot should remain lit
and can be seen below the right centre radiant. If the pilot
did not light or failed to remain alight, push in the control
knob slightly and turn clockwise to OFF position and
repeat the lighting procedure. Once the pilot is
established turn the control knob to the desired setting.
If the flames are found to be extinguished and the control knob is NOT in the OFF position, the control knob must
be turned to OFF and no attempt should be made to relight the gas until at least 3 minutes have elapsed.

The fire is fitted with a flame supervision and Oxygen depletion device. This will shut the fire off if the pilot goes out for
any reason. This may be caused by the Oxygen level in the room falling below a prescribed level due to a poor flue pull
etc. If the fire keeps going out you must have it checked by a ‘Gas Safe’ registered engineer.
The pilot burns at all settings, giving a localised extra glow to the left of the centre right hand radiant. This localised
glow will be more visible at the lower settings, and is quite normal.
CHANGING THE BATTERY
The ignition spark generator, containing the battery (size
AA), is located at the lower rear RH side. Unscrew the cap,
anti-clockwise, off the battery holder. Remove the battery,
and replace with a new one. This should be inserted ‘flat
end first’ - this is the negative terminal. Replace the cap
carefully to avoid cross-threading it.
Please note: Consumable items, such as batteries, are
not covered by the guarantee.
If you want to relight a hot fire, wait 3 minutes before
doing so.
LIGHTING WITH A TAPER
In the unlikely event of failure of the ignition spark, the
fire can be lit with a taper. First light the taper and apply
it to the pilot and then press the control knob and turn it
anti-clockwise to pilot position. After the pilot is lit,
keep the knob pushed in for a further 10 seconds before
releasing. The pilot should still remain lit.
NOTE: The control knob is situated
on the top right hand side of the
fire and is marked with the symbols
OFF, Pilot , 1, 2, 3, 4.
The control knob is connected to the gas tap by a universal
coupling and will have a ‘loose feel’ to it, which should not
cause concern.
NOTE 1: Instructions for lighting are also in the lift up lid of the bezel on the fire.
NOTE 2: The control knob should be pushed in slightly before turning and always set to one of the stated positions.
