Baxi Potterton 339 manual Owner Guide

OWNER GUIDE

Do wait three minutes before attempting to relight if the fire is switched off or the flames are extinguished for any reason. (Your fire is fitted with a safety device that will automatically shut off the gas supply to the fire if, for any reason, the flames go out). Do get advice about the suitability of any wall covering near your fire. Soft wall coverings (e.g. embossed vinyl, etc.) which have a raised pattern are easily affected by heat. They may, therefore, scorch or become discoloured when close to a heating appliance. Please bear this in mind whenever you are considering redecorating.

Do allow a minimum clearance of 150mm from the top of the appliance fascia to the underside of any shelf made from non-combustible materials. This clearance is necessary to allow the fascia to be lifted off for servicing. For a shelf made from wood or other combustible materials the minimum clearance from the top of the appliance fascia to the underside of the shelf is 150mm, for combustible shelves deeper than 150mm add 12.5mm to the clearance for every 25mm of additional shelf depth (See graph 1). Please bear this in mind if ever you add a shelf.

Graph 1. Combustible shelf clearances

Do provide a minimum clearance of 100mm between the fascia sides and any corner wall having combustible material or other combustible surface which projects beyond the front of the fire (See figure 1). Please bear this in mind if ever you are considering altering the room.

Don’t hang clothing, towels or any other fabrics over the fire. Don’t fill in the space behind the fascia.

Don’t use the fire with a damaged ceramic fuel effect or with the ceramic fuel effect incorrectly positioned.

Don’t use the fire if the glass window is damaged.
