The fuel bed has a realistic coal effect utilizing ceramic ‘coals’ and coal bed that allows secondary air to be entrained into the bed for clean combustion. The burner is an aerated twin ported steel burner running parallel across the front of the fire. The gas control fitted has a variable high to low setting and includes the added protection of a flame supervision device. A separate piezo igniter used to ignite an Oxy/pilot device to prevent continued spillage occurring under hazardous flue conditions. The installation must be carried out by a competent person in accordance with the relevant British Standards, Codes of Practice and Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1994 or the rules in force. Failure to install an appliance correctly could lead to prosecution. Before the appliance is installed, the installer must check that all the requirements for the flue are satisfied and that the chimney is sound and clean, and that it has been swept prior to installation. IMPORTANT NOTES FIREGUARD The glass window on this gas fire is manufactured to the requirements of BS 1945 1971, and satisfies the Heating Appliances (fireguards) (safety) Regulations 1991. The Royal Cheltenham is a heating appliance and as such some areas of the appliance will become hot. It is recommended that a fireguard to BS 6539 1984, is used for the protection of young children, the elderly and the infirm. THIS APPLIANCE IS FITTED WITH SPECIAL HEAT RESISTING GLASS PANELS, IF ANY PANEL IS DAMAGED THE FIRE MUST NOT BE USED AND A REPLACEMENT SPARE PANEL MUST BE OBTAINED TO CARRY OUT THE REPAIR. It is very important that the warm air outlet grilles are not obstructed or used for drying towels etc. When the fire is new, an initial odour may be detected. This is due to certain materials used during the manufacture of the fibre components, increase the ventilation to the room during the initial burn-in. The stainless steel used for the construction of the combustion chamber may become discoloured (blued). This is due to the temperatures and does not detract from the effectiveness of the fire. This product uses fuel effect pieces, gaskets and insulation material containing Refractory Ceramic Fibre (RCF), which are man-made vitreous silicate fibres. Excessive exposure to these materials 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. Care must be taken on the selection of the wall coverings within close proximity of the fire as some vinyl’s and embossed materials may become discoloured by convected heat. Soft furnishings must be kept clear from the radiant heat of the fire and from impinging the hearth area. The hearth must not be covered by any combustible materials such as carpet, etc. It is recommended that the appliance is serviced annually by a competent person, the flue checked for satisfactory clearance of combustion products and that there is no excessive build-up of soot. An inspection should be made for any build-up of soot or debris falling behind the unit that could prevent products of combustion being drawn into the flue. Any existing or purpose built ventilation must be kept clear and free from obstruction. Page 2 TECHNICAL DATA Heats Input Rates: High Setting 5.42 kW 18,500 Btu/h (Gross) Low Setting 2.34 kW 8,000 Btu/h This fire will run for 5.4 hours on one therm of gas on high setting. LOCATION OF COMBUSTIBLE SHELVES ABOVE FIRE SIDE OF FIRE Min. Height of 150mm deep shelf above hearth = 830mm Min. Dimension from outer edge of fire to a combustible surface of 150mm depth is 100mm. When the shelf depth is increased by increments of 12.5mm, add 25mm to the height above fire. TO LIGHT APPLIANCE (see Fig 1) Remove the Fret (controls cover) to gain access. Press and turn the gas control knob anticlockwise until the indicator is opposite IGN. Keep the gas control fully depressed. Press and release the igniter button until the Oxy/pilot flame situated on the left-hand side of the burner has lit. Keep the gas control depressed for a further 10 to 15 seconds. Release the gas control and check that the pilot flame remains lit. Refer to Fig 3 to view pilot. Note. For convenience, the unit can be operated with the pilot only, e.g. with the control knob set in the IGN position. Push in the gas control slightly and turn anticlockwise so that the indicator dot is at the required setting. Replace the Fret (controls cover). To turn off the appliance and pilot, turn the gas control clockwise from any position - until the indicator dot is opposite OFF. In the event of the piezo igniter failing, the fire can be lit with a taper or spill. Light the taper and push through the slots below the glass panel in the position shown in fig 2. Push and turn the control knob to the ignition position and keep it pressed for 10 seconds after the Oxy/pilot has lit. IMPORTANT: After turning the appliance OFF, allo...
