CLEANING THE FIRE 6.1 Cleaning should only be carried out when the fire is turned off and cold. NOTE: Do not use a vacuum cleaner. 6.2 Cleaning is necessary when there is any chimney debris visible on the coals, or if there is a soot build up in the fire. Minor soot deposits can be ignored. 6.3 Remove the coals or logs carefully onto a sheet of paper. 6.4 Clean the coals or logs using a soft brush taking great care not to damage them. 6.5 Foreign objects or debris which have been thrown, or have fallen onto the fire should be removed when the fire is cold, by hand. 6.6 Replace the ceramic components and coals by referring to section ARRANGEMENT OF FUEL BED COMPONENTS ADVICE ON HANDLING AND DISPOSAL OF FIRE CERAMICS The fuel effect and side panels in this appliance are made from Refractory Ceramic Fibre (RCF), a material which is commonly used for this application. Protective clothing is not required when handling these articles, but we recommend you follow normal hygiene rules of not smoking, eating or drinking in the work area and always wash your hands before eating or drinking. To ensure that the release of RCF fibres are kept to a minimum, during installation and servicing a HEPA filtered vacuum is recommended to remove any dust accumulated in and around the appliance before and after working on it. When servicing the appliance it is recommended that the replaced items are not broken up, but are sealed within heavy duty polythene bags and labelled as RCF waste. RCF waste is classed as stable, non-reactive hazardous waste and may be disposed of at a licensed landfill site. Excessive exposure to these materials may cause temporary irritation to eyes, skin and respiratory tract; wash hands thoroughly after handling the material. NOTE: CERAMIC PARTS ARE FRAGILE 7.1 General Your fire will be supplied either with a ceramic Coal, Log, Pebble or Driftwood effect This will have been specified at the time of ordering. With pebble fires follow coal layouts. With driftwood fires follow log layouts. 6

7 USER INSTRUCTIONS Positioning of ceramic parts is important, not only for the flame effect, but also for optimum performance of the appliance It is important that the coals and logs are placed so that there are gaps around each for the flames to pass through Ceramic coals or logs must only touch each other at single points, avoid whole sides touching Two types of fire beads are supplied, large and small Using the large fire beads, fill the fire to within 10mm of the top, level and pat down. See diagram Do not use any more ceramic components than those shown, extra parts supplied are spares and should be kept for future use The ceramic components should last about 2 years in normal use at which time it is recommended to replace them. Replacement parts can be bought from any stockist who supplies GAZCO fires, always state the model number found on the databadge The fuel layout of the Gazco made to measure fires is based on a simple system which is easily adapted to suit the different shapes and sizes available. The parts are supplied in various quantities depending on the size of the fire delivered. Check your coals, pebbles, driftwood and logs. If any are damaged, contact your Gazco stockist for replacements. Always ask for genuine Gazco parts Depending on the fuel effect that you have been supplied with, follow the correct section. 7.2 Fire beads and burners Single burner fires have only one air box and one injector, the burner looks like diagram 4. 4 AR Using the small beads, fill the fire to the top. See diagram 7. 7 AR Smooth out the fire beads, it is important to ensure that the fire is completely filled, level to the top. NOTE: If your fire needs more beads, then there should be some left over from the original installation, if not then more must be ordered from your Gazco stockist. Do not use any other type of material as this may seriously damage your fire and could be dangerous Firmly pat the beads down to ensure that there are no voids left below the surface Ensure that no beads have fallen into the pilot area. AR Twin burners have 2 air boxes and 2 injectors; their burners look like diagram Ensure that the pilot shield is fitted correctly and that it fits tightly onto the edge of the tray. See diagram AR0593 AR0558 7

Oxygen Depletion Sensor 8.1 The appliance is fitted with an oxygen sensitive pilot system that will act to cut off the gas supply to the fire should the oxygen in the room fall below its normal level. If the fire is turned off by this device, it usually indicates that there is a problem with the flue system, and this should be inspected by a qualified engineer. Do not attempt to use the fire until an engineer says it is safe to do so. This device is not a substitute for an independently mounted carbon monoxide detector. 9.1 This is a safety feature incorporated in all GAZCO fires which automatically switches off the gas supply if the pilot goes out and fails to heat the thermocouple. 10. running in 10.1 The surface coating on the coals used in your GAZCO fire will "burn off" during the first few hours of use producing a harmless and temporary odour. This will disappear after a short period of use. If the odour persists, ask your installer for advice. 11. servicing 11.1 The fire must be serviced every 12 months by a qualified Gas Engineer. In all correspondence always quote the appliance type and the serial number which may be found on the databadge, adjacent to the control knob. 11

See diagram FUELBED ARRANGEMENT ADVICE ON HANDLING AND DISPOSAL OF FIRE CERAMICS The fuel effect and side panels in this appliance are made from Refractory Ceramic Fibre (RCF), a material which is commonly used for this application. Protective clothing is not required when handling these articles, but we recommend you follow normal hygiene rules of not smoking, eating or drinking in the work area and always wash your hands before eating or drinking. To ensure that the release of RCF fibres are kept to a minimum, during installation and servicing a HEPA filtered vacuum is recommended to remove any dust accumulated in and around the appliance before and after working on it. When servicing the appliance it is recommended that the replaced items are not broken up, but are sealed within heavy duty polythene bags and labelled as RCF waste. RCF waste is classed as stable, non-reactive hazardous waste and may be disposed of at a licensed landfill site. Excessive exposure to these materials may cause temporary irritation to eyes, skin and respiratory tract; wash hands thoroughly after handling the material Single burner fires have only one air box and one injector, the burner looks like diagram 42. AR1113 If the isolation tap is to be fitted under the fire, the GAZCO GC00060 provides a neat and easy solution CONTROL UPGRADE 14.1 Your fire is fitted with a control valve that can be easily upgraded to battery powered remote control. This upgrade can be fitted by anyone capable of simple DIY jobs and requires no special training. This upgrade can be obtained through your local GAZCO stockist STANDARD REMOTE CONTROL This remote control can control the fire after the pilot has been lit. It can turn the main burner on and regulate it from low through to high and back again. It can turn the main burner off leaving the pilot burning. GAZCO PART NUMBER AR Twin burners have 2 air boxes and 2 injectors; their burners look like diagram The remote control receiver box is supplied with a 0.8 metre lead which attaches to the control valve.
