Your fire is fitted with a control valve that can be easily
upgraded to battery powered remote control. This upgrade
can be fitted by anyone capable of simple DIY jobs and
requires no special training. This upgrade can be obtained
through your local GAZCO stockist.

STANDARD REMOTE CONTROL This remote control can
control the fire after the pilot has been lit. It can turn the
main burner on and regulate it from low through to high
and back again. It can turn the main burner off leaving the
pilot burning. GAZCO PART NUMBER 8455.

The remote control receiver box is supplied with a 0.8
metre lead which attaches to the control valve. The receiver
must be located in a position that will receive a signal from
the handset and may be attached using the adhesive pads
supplied in the instruction kit. The receiver must not be
located on any surface which may become hot when the
fire is in use.

4.4

IMPORTANT - there is a thermostatic version of the
upgrade but this is NOT SUITABLE for open flame fires.

NOTE: CERAMIC PARTS ARE FRAGILE.

5.1.1 Your fire will be supplied either with a ceramic Coal, Log,

Pebble or Driftwood effect This will have been specified at
the time of ordering. With pebble fires follow coal layouts.
With driftwood fires follow log layouts.

5.1.2 Positioning of ceramic parts is important, not only for the

flame effect, but also for optimum performance of the
appliance.

5.1.3 It is important that the ceramic fuel effect pieces are placed

so that there are gaps around each for the flames to pass
through.

5.1.4 Ceramic components must only touch each other at single

points, avoid whole sides touching.

5.1.5 Do not use any more ceramic components than those

shown, extra parts supplied are spares and should be kept
for future use.

5.1.6 The ceramic components should last about 2 years in

normal use at which time it is recommended to replace
them. Replacement parts can be bought from any stockist
who supplies GAZCO fires, always state the model number
found on the databadge.

5.1.7 The parts are supplied in various quantities depending on

the size of the fire delivered. Check your coals, pebbles,
driftwood and logs. If any are damaged, contact your Gazco
stockist for replacements. Always ask for genuine Gazco
parts.

5.1.8 Depending on the fuel effect that you have been supplied

with, follow the correct section.

5.2.1 If you have chosen the glass granular fuel effect, open the

bag of glass granules and fill the fire to the top ensuring the
granules finish level with the top of the tray.

5.2.2 Firmly pat the granules down to ensure that there are no

voids below the surface. It is important to ensure that the
granules fill all the gaps around the burner, and that the
granules finish level with the top of the tray.

5.3.1 If you have chosen any other of the fuel effects (coal,

pebble or log), it will be necessary to fill the tray with
firebeads.

5.3.2 You will find 2 sizes of firebeads, large and small. Using the

large beads, fill the fire to within 10mm of the top, level the
beads and pat down. See diagram 3.

5.3.3 Using the small beads, fill the fire to the top.

See diagram 4.

5.3.4 Smooth out the fire beads, it is important to ensure that the

fire is completely filled, level to the top.
NOTE: if your fire needs more beads, then there should be
some left over from the original installation, if not then
more must be ordered from your Gazco stockist. Do not
use any other type of material as this may seriously damage
your fire and could be dangerous.

5.3.5 Firmly pat the beads down to ensure that there are no voids

left below the surface.
