SERVICING
It is recommended that the appliance is inspected and serviced as necessary regularly by a competent person
e.g. Manufac?tures Distributorr?s representatives, Corgi installer.
The life of the ceramic coals and fire back will be dependent on the way they are handled/knocked/
dropped/used. Any damaged or disintegrating coals should be replaced.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
The specific number of coals should not be exceeded. The fan should be dismantled from the fan box and the
blades etc. cleaned of any lint or soot. If there are unusual heavy soot deposits on the fan blades it is possible
that the fuel stack has been built incorrectly and the user should be notified. (It might also be necessary to
remove the fan box from the wall and inspect the flue duct for excess soot deposit and clean out).
To ensure that the release of fibres from these RCF articles is kept to a minimum, during installation and
servicing we recommend that you use a HEPA filtered vacuum to remove any dust and soot accumulated in
and around the fire before and after working on the fire. When replacing these articles we recommend that the
replaced items are not broken up, but are sealed within heavy duty polythene bags, clearly labelled as RCF
waste. This is not classified as "hazardous waste" and may be disposed of at a tipping site licensed for the
disposal of industrial waste. Protective clothing is not required when handling these articles, but we
recommend you follow the normal hygiene rules of not smoking, eating or drinking in the work area and
always wash your hands before eating or drinking.
The sealing of the fan box to the outside wall should be inspected and any obstruction e.g. overgrown
vegetation etc, which could impede the free flow of air attended to, with the co-operation of the householder.
The appliance should be inspected for any signs of damage, misuse or malfunction and any faults rectified.
Inside walls and the ceiling in the vicinity of the appliance should be inspected for signs of staining - if any the
cause must be determined, investigated and corrected if due to combustion product spillage into the room.
The fire should be re-laid in accordance with the instructions and the commissioning routine i.e. checking the
operations of the fan, control box, and flow sense switch together with the normal turning on sequence.
To check the operation of the FFD, turn the gas control to the off position from hot, leave for ninety seconds.
(An audible click should be heard within this period) hold a lighted taper to the pilot burner port, turn the
control knob to the IGN position and if the pilot re-lights the FFD is faulty. Recheck that the ignition is
satisfactory and allow to reheat for a short period, turn off the appliance via the OFF switch at the control box,
the fan will stop running and the solenoid valve close cutting off the gas supply to the pilot and burner. Check
that the correct fire front is being used. Giv? sprineg the applianc clean' and tide a y up!
