CAUTION
-
Make sure you have read and understood this manual before using this product.
-
Do not overfill or spill fuel when refilling.
-
If fuel is spilled onto the surface of the Firebox WIPE IT IMMEDIATELY AND LEAVE TO DRY BEFORE LIGHTING THE BURNER.
If fuel is spilled on the stainless steel Burner during filling, wipe with a dry cloth and allow the rest to evaporate before lighting the Burner. -
If the Burner is accidentally overfilled, follow the steps in the Burner manual to rectify it.
-
To refill, wait until the Burner is at room temperature after the flame has been turned off.
NOTE: the flame may not be visible to the naked eye in daylight and must be cool before filling. -
NEVER refill over or near an open flame and use a decanter with a flame arrestor only.
-
Remove all plastic & packaging before using the Burner.
Troubleshooting and operating tips:
-
The hooks on the back of the Sliding Lid Handle can be used to carry the Slimline Burner by hooking it around the slotted openings in the Vent Plate as shown in the image below. Not Applicable to Round Burner.
-
The first fill will take longer and more fuel as the material inside the Fuel Tank will absorb the fuel. The subsequent filling should be quicker with less fuel. Take care to not fill the burner at a faster rate than what the material inside can absorb.
-
If the fire does not extinguish the first time by closing the Sliding Lid follow these steps and repeat if necessary.
o, Check that the surface below the sliding plate is clean and free from obstruction.
o Apply strong downward force and in one quick motion move the sliding plate towards the closed position. If the flame is still visible repeat this step as a double motion still applying strong downward force in quick succession. -
Never blow on the flame whilst the Sliding Lid is in an open position.
-
We recommend refilling your Burner to its intended capacity before every use.
-
VERY IMPORTANT: Take special care when adding fuel to the Slimline Burner, always close the Sliding Lid for a few minutes before adding fuel to make sure there is no visible flame in the Burner Vent.
-
If after some time you find the Sliding Lid has become ‘sticky’ when attempting to move it then remove the Sliding Lid from its housing and rub the underside using the green side of a Scotch Bright scouring pad. Take care to only scrub in the direction of the brushing lines of the stainless steel. Not applicable to Round Burner.
-
Make sure you keep your Burner clean especially the surface that the Sliding Lid slides on and ensure that any excess fuel on the surface of the Burner is wiped off before use.
-
In Australia is it mandatory for all products to be supplied with a Fuel Canister that has a flame arrestor? Cocoon Fires supplies a fuel canister with a flame arrestor in the Australian market. We recommend in all markets to use a fuel canister with a flame arrestor.

MAKE SURE THE FIREPLACE HAS COOLED OFF COMPLETELY BEFORE CLEANING:
To clean dust, wipe with a dry cloth or sponge.
To clean stainless steel parts, use bioethanol or Acetone.
Make sure the Sliding Lid for the Slimline Burner slides correctly and fully
after cleaning and that any excess cleaning product has been wiped off
completely.
KEEP HANDY A CLASS ABE FIRE EXTINGUISHER:
Class ABE fire extinguishers are used to put out fires that are caused by
combustible liquids. Class ABE fire extinguishers quell the flames by
expelling a dry chemical powder or foam with a nitrogen propellant. The
specific chemical can vary depending on the make or model. Water will not
extinguish this flame.
PROCEDURE IF BURNER IS OVERFILLED:
In case of accidental overfilling of the fuel tank, follow these steps:
- NEVER light the Slimline Burner if it is filled past the filling line by more than 5mm, as shown in the section of Filling the Slimline Burner.
- Remove the Slimline Burner from its housing, using the hooks on the back end of the Sliding Lid Handle or rubber gloves.
- Empty excess fuel into a container suitable to hold the volume of the Burner, kitchen sink, or toilet bowl.
- Wipe off all excess fuel that may have dripped on the outside of the Slimline Burner during emptying and allow any residual fuel to evaporate. Leave for 1 hour.
- Place the Slimline Burner back into its housing.
- Ignite the Slimline Burner only once all residual fuel outside the Burner has completely evaporated and the dispenser used to fill the Burner has been sealed and moved to a
a safe distance from the Burner.
USE CORRECT FUEL: BIOETHANOL

Filling the Slimline Burner
THE BURNER MUST BE COOL BEFORE REFILL!
Fill the Slimline Burner Fuel Tank to the Fill Line until the fuel becomes
visible at the bottom of the Burner Vent. Fill using the Fuel Pump supplied
(where applicable) or a funnel that fits in the center hole of the Vent
Plate. DO NOT OVERFILL
Please wipe any spillage or excess fuel before proceeding to Step 2.
Igniting the Slimline Burner
Seal the fuel canister used to fill the Burner and move to a safe distance
away from the Burner. While standing at arm’s length away from the Burner, use
a long arm lighter as per the image above to introduce a flame to the openings
in the Vent Plate. If the Burner has fuel in the reservoir but is not
igniting, close the Sliding Lid for 5 minutes then open the Sliding Lid.
Ensure there are no flames visible within the burner vent opening, then pour a
small amount of fuel across the length of the Burner Vent with the supplied
plastic bottle (where applicable) and introduce the flame. This normally
happens when the burner has been closed for a day or more.
Note: If fuel is left on the burner for a prolonged time or overnight, before
the next use, open the Vent for 2 minutes and let it air before ignition, to
let the fuel vapor clear, and only then light.
Adjusting the Flame Size
The flame intensity is adjusted by inserting the Sliding Lid Handle’s tip into the corresponding holes in the Top Plate Sliding Lid as indicated above. Note the flame intensity takes a few minutes to change after an adjustment has been made. The Round Burner flame is adjusted by placing either the large or small reducer ring on top of the burner.
Extinguishing the Flame
Using the Sliding Lid Handle, push the Sliding Lid to the front / closed
position. Should the flame not extinguish on the first try please repeat until
extinguished. It should be a swift action coupled with downward pressure.
For the Round Burner simply place the closing lid on top of the burner making
sure it fits into its position.
