This appliance must be serviced at least one a year by a
competent person.
1. SERVICING REQUIREMENTS
1.1 As part of the annual service, the space behind the convector
must be inspected for any debris, which may have fallen down
the chimney.
1.2 Remove the gas fire from the convector as detailed in section 4
1.3 Remove the convector box from the wall, see section 5 in
Installation.
1.3 Inspect the space behind the convector for debris and the
condition of the chimney, the flue flow test should be carried
out now. Remove any debris and carry out any necessary
remedial work.
2. FAULT FINDING
This is for use only by qualified Installers and Service Engineers.
Note: Many problems can be attributed to poor pilot flame length
caused by blocked jets as the orifice is very small. If the flame
length is much shorter than that shown in the Diagram, the pilot
may have to be changed. See Diagram 7.
It is always worth using the nozzle of a vacuum cleaner over the
end of the pilot to ensure that it has no debris within it. In
addition, many ignition problems are caused by incorrect spark
gap, ensure it is set as in Diagram 7.
