Check that:

a)the air inlet is not obstructed in any way,

b)chimneys and flueways are clear,

c)a suitable fuel is being used,

d)there is an adequate air supply into the room,

e)an extractor fan is not fitted in the same room as the fire.

Fire Blazing Out Of Control.

Check that:

a)the doors are tightly closed,

b)the thermostat knob is turned down to the minimum setting,

c)the air inlet damper is closed (at the bottom left of the appliance), and that it is not prevented from closing completely by a piece of ash,

d)a suitable fuel is being used,

e)the door seals are in good condition.

Over-Firing

If the fire is over-fired it will cause premature failure of the internal fire parts. Overfiring is occurring when any internal parts of the fire begin to glow red. To prevent over-firing ensure that:

a)the door seals are kept in good condition, and that the doors are sealing correctly,

b)the thermostat on the fire is working correctly,

c)a suitable fuel is being used,

d)the fire is not fitted onto a heating system which is too large.

Fume Emission.

Warning Note: Properly installed and operated this appliance will not emit fumes. Occasional fume from de-ashing and re-fuelling may occur. Persistant fume emision is potentially dangerous and must not be tolerated. If fume emission does persist then the following immediate actions should be taken:

A)Open doors and windows to ventilate the room.

B)Let the fire out and safely dispose of fuel from the appliance.

C)Check for flue or chimney blockage, and clean if required.

D)Do not attempt to relight fire until cause of fume has been identified, if necessary seek professional advice.

The most common cause of fume emission is flueway or chimney blockage. For your own safety these must be kept clean.

Freezing

Do not light the fire if there is any possibility that any parts of the system may be frozen.

Chimney Fires.

If the chimney is thoroughly and regularly swept, chimney fires should not occur. However, if a chimney fire does occur turn the control knob to the minimum setting, and tightly close the doors of the appliance. This should cause the chimney fire to go out in which case the control should be kept at the minimum setting until the fire in the appliance has gone out. The chimney and flueways should

then be cleaned. If the chimney fire does not go out when the above action is taken then the fire brigade should be called immediately.

After a chimney fire the chimney should be carefully examined for any damage. Expert advice should be sought if necessary.

Lack of Heat To

Radiators / Hot Water

Check that:

a)the fire is burning properly - if not then carry out the checks under "Fire Will Not Burn".

b)the throat plate is fitted correctly (see Fig. 4.) and that it is not distorted.

c)the door seals are in good condition.

d)If the hot water goes cold when the pump is turned on, or if some radiators are hotter than others, then the system may need balancing, the pump may be pumping the water too quickly around the system, or the radiators may need bleeding. Please ask your installer to check these points.

e)Ensure that the boiler reduction brick has not been fitted when it is not required.
