Servicing instructions
To ensure safe, efficient operation of the appliance, it is necessary to carry out routine servicing at
regular intervals.
The fire must be inspected/serviced by a competent person e.g. CORGI registered.
The fire must be serviced annually but under particular installation conditions it may be required
more frequently.
IMPORTANT
Before commencing any servicing or exchange of components, always turn off the gas supply.
Ensure the appliance is cold.
After servicing always check for gas soundness and if the appliance has been removed carry out a
spillage check.
The pilot and flame sensing device fitted to this fire is also an atmosphere sensing device. If for any
reason any part of the pilot assembly is to be replaced ALL the assembly including the pilot burner,
thermocouple, electrode and injector must be exchanged complete for an original manufacturers
pilot assembly. This atmosphere sensing device is not adjustable and must not be put out of action.
Routine annual servicing
1. Check the appliance is clean and free from soot and lint.
2. Carefully remove the coals and ceramics and clean using a soft brush. Do not wash the coals
or use a vacuum cleaner.
3. It is essential when relaying the coals that only the correct number of coals are used and
that they are laid in accordance with the coal lay diagrams.
4. Remove the front and ash pan cover. Clean any lint from the front and ash pan cover.
5. On remote control versions remove the screw holding the P clip and infrared sensor.
6. On remote control versions disconnect the battery by pulling apart the plastic connector situated
along the battery lead. Remove the battery.
7. Remove the 2 nuts (1 each side) securing the burner and place to one side.
8. Break the gas supply at the inlet isolation cock/pressure test point elbow.
9. Lift the burner upwards at the front so as the burner location tags clear the threaded studs.
Remove the burner tray and place to one side.
10. Break the connection at the injector inlet.
11. Unscrew the burner cap, via 2 screws under rear coal bed, remove cap and ceramic seal
located at each end. Clean cap.
12. Unscrew the injector from the retainer nut and clean the injector - Do not use a needle.
13. Remove any lint from the lint guard and pilot assembly particularly around pilot aeration hole.
14. IMPORTANT - The pilot/thermocouple assembly is not serviceable and must be replaced
together if either thermocouple or pilot are faulty.
15. Remember this is an oxygen depletion pilot designed to trip the pilot if there is a build up of
combustion products in the room. So if the pilot is tripping out check for spillage/down draught,
pilot filter or flue blockage before replacing the pilot.
16. Reassemble in reverse order. Ensuring that a new ceramic paper seal is located at the front of
the burner cap each end. See fig. 18. page 28
17. Ensure pilot shield is correctly located.
