MAINTENANCE
Battery replacement
(See fig 10).
This appliance requires 9V PP3 Ever Ready Silver Seal (or equivalent)
battery.
To replace the battery remove the bottom front cover casting.
Fit the new battery firmly to the connections on the generator, the
positive battery terminal (+) being to the right as you insert.
Fitting Tile sets – Homestyle Only
A wide range of alternative tile designs are available from your
supplier.
To change the tiles:-
1.
The top casting will have to be removed to insert
the tile set. Some appliances have the top casting
secured to the sides by screws. Other appliances
have the top secured by spring clips. If the top is
screwed to the sides, unscrew the two screws at
the top of the side castings until they are loose
enough to allow the top to be lifted off. There is
no screw thread in the top casting, only in the side
castings (See figure 11). If no screws are visible,
the top can be removed by pulling it firmly
upwards to release the spring clips (See figure 11).
2.
a)
Remove the complete tile cassette by sliding
the cassette channel up and out of the front
casting. See figure 11.
b)
Alternatively, remove the tiles individually by sliding them up out of the cassette channel. This second
method will have to be employed if a shelf above the fire is too low to enable the channel to be slid clear.
3.
Fit the new tile cassettes by sliding them in the grooves at the back of the front casting and in front of the
spring clips. Alternatively, if any shelf above the fire is too low to fit the full cassette, remove the new tiles
from the cassette and individually slide them into the old cassette channel.
4.
Replace the top casting and, if applicable, secure by tightening the two screws.
Regular maintenance
In order to achieve and maintain high levels of personal safety and performance efficiency, it is essential that
the opening at the back of the fire and the flue are kept clear of any form of obstruction. It is possible that
deposits of mortar or soot could fall and accumulate causing the flue to be blocked or restricted and so
preventing proper clearance of dangerous exhaust fumes.
In the United Kingdom it is the law that a landlord must have any gas appliance, flue and pipework which is
situated in a tenant’s premises checked for safety at least every twelve months by a competent person (In the
U.K, a CORGI registered installer).
We recommend that all gas appliances and their flues, wherever situated, are checked annually.
