2. Carefully remove the Ceramic components (including
Embers) or Gravels
3. Use a Vacuum cleaner to clean the top of the burners and
grate
4. Remove Grate
5. Using a vacuum cleaner, fully clean around the Burner
6. The Pilot Assembly is clearly visible. Use the vacuum cleaner
and a so brush to clean the pilot assembly Never modify or
bend the Thermocouple
7. Turn on the gas supply and check for leaks, check the
burners and Pilot for good condition and operation
8. Replace Grate
9. Replace the Firebed arrangements
10. Replace Window Assembly and Trims
11. Check the flue system and terminal, making sure that the
terminal vent is fully clear
12. Light the appliance and test setting pressures
13. Check the safe operation of the appliance
14.1 Cleaning the Ceramics
Remove the ceramics as detailed in CHAPTER 10.
Gently clean the ceramics in the open air, using a so brush
and a vacuum cleaner. Where necessary replace damaged
components only with genuine Element4 specified parts. Seal
any scrap ceramics in plastic bags and dispose at proper refuse
sites. When using a vacuum cleaner, it is recommended that one
with a HEPA filtering system is used.
Re-fit the Firebed arrangement, re-seal the appliance and check
the safe operation of the appliance.
14.2 Servicing the Burners
Remove the Burner Top Assemblies as detailed in to 1 to 3
above.
The pilot is now clearly visible. The pilot, including the
Thermocouple, can be replaced/ serviced by removing / raising
the pilot assembly from its mounting. This is done by removing
the two screws on the surface of the pilot. The fittings on the
under-side of the pilot can be un-done using a 10mm spanner
where appropriate.
To access the Main Burner Injectors, the Burner base units
must be removed. This is done by removing the four bolts (M5,
8mm socket tool) holding the burner in. With these four bolts
removed, the Burner base can be raised up through the Firebox,
and the Injectors can be easily accessed.
When replacing any parts use only original specified parts.
13 COMMISSIONING THE APPLIANCE
13.1 Pilot Ignition Check
1. Ignite the pilot light as described in the User Instructions
2. Check that the pilot flame stays alight
3. Extinguish the pilot light
13.2 Main Burner Check

2. Turn on the main burner as described in the User Instructions
3. Check that the pilot smoothly cross-lights to the main
burner and that the main burner and pilot stay alight
4. Extinguish the appliance fully
13.3 Pressure Check
The appliance is preset to give the correct heat inputs as listed in
the technical details. No further adjustment is necessary. Always
check the inlet pressure and burner pressure.
1. Turn o the gas valve on the appliance
2. Release the screw on the Inlet Pressure test point on the gas
valve and connect a pressure guage Manometer
3. Check that the measured pressure is as the prescribed
supply pressure
4. Perform the test when the appliance is burning on full and
with only the pilot alight
5. If the pressure is low, check the gas supply pipes are to a
correct sizing
6. If the pressure is too high (more than 5 mbar over) the
appliance may be installed, but the gas supply company
should be contacted
7. Release the screw on the Burner Pressure test point on the
gas valve and connect a manometer
8. Check that the measured pressure is as detailed in the
technical details
9. The measured value should be within +/- 10% of the
described value. If this is not the case, please contact the
supplier.
Note: Aer checking the pressures and removing the
manometers, the screws in the Pressure Test points must be
closed, and the system must be checked for gas-tightness.
