Ventilation
This appliance is a Balanced Flue room sealed appliance, and as such needs no additional ventilation. However an adequate supply of fresh air to maintain temperatures and a comfortable environment is recommended.
This appliance may be installed in a completely sealed or mechanically ventilated house.

Appliance Fireplace Installation

• Determine the position required for the appliance.
• Create a gas connection for the appliance in approximately the correct location for the gas controls.
• The gas controls are connected to the burner of the appliance.
• For clearance details see section 2.4 below.
• The clearance distance of the flue from combustibles must not be less than 75mm. This dimension can be reduced to 25mm as the distance from the underside and the sides of Horizontal flue runs.
• The stove must stand on a fireproof hearth, which must be of a non-combustible material with a minimum thickness of 12mm and extend 100mm in front of the stove.
• The hearth must not be capable of inadvertent covering by a rug or carpet. This may be achieved by either the hearth being 50mm above the level of the floor, or a fender or kerb around the hearth to a height of 50mm.

Clearance Requirements
The appliance must not be fitted against a rear wall constructed from a combustible material; a gap of 300mm should be given around the stove before combustible materials may be used in the wall construction.

If the appliance has to be located in an opening, the minimum clearance from non-combustible materials is:

• Rear : 50mm
• Right : 50mm
• Left : 50mm

The stove must be located at least 280mm from any combustible materials.
A combustible shelf may be fitted over the appliance, if in the case of a 150mm or less deep shelf, there is at least 280mm clearance above the top of the stove. The shelf depth may increase at the same rate as the increase in clearance; i.e. a shelf depth of 200mm would require a clearance of 330mm.

7 IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Flue Connection

General Notes
This appliance may be installed with a roof terminal (C31) or a wall terminal (C11).
This appliance may only be used with Balanced Flue (otherwise known as Concentric Flue) parts as specified by Arada. The Arada specified flue parts have been approved with the appliance.
If the appliance is installed on a non-Arada approved flue system, then Arada cannot guarantee or accept responsibility for the proper and safe working of this appliance.
Approved Flue Systems are listed on Page 7.
The flue system must be constructed from the appliance upwards, with all joints being fully locked and sealed using the Arada specified parts.

Timber Frame Construction
Whilst it is possible to install room-sealed appliances in timber frame properties, great care needs to be taken to ensure that the flue assembly does not interfere with the weather proofing qualities of any outer wall which it may penetrate.

Before attempting this work, further details need to be referenced, (e.g. “Gas Installations in Timber Frame Buildings” from the GAS SAFE installer series in the UK).

Carport or Building Extension
Where a flue terminal is sited within a carport or building extension, it should have at least two completely open and unobstructed sides. The distance between the lowest part of the roof and the top of the terminal should be at least 600mm.

Note: A covered passageway should not be treated as a carport. Flues should not be sited in a covered passageway between properties.

Basements, Light wells and Retaining Walls

• Flue terminals should not be sited within the confines of a basement area, light well or external space formed by a retaining wall, unless steps are taken to ensure the products of combustion can disperse safely at all times.
• It may be possible to install this Balanced Flue system in such a location provided that it is not sited lower than 1m from the top level of that area to allow combustion products to disperse safely.
• Flue terminals should be sited to ensure total clearance of the combustion products in accordance with the included information.
• When the products of combustion are discharged, they should not cause a nuisance to adjoining or adjacent properties and they should be positioned so that damage cannot occur to other parts of the building.
• If the outer wall surface is constructed of combustible material, a non-combustible plate should be fitted behind the terminal projecting 25mm beyond the external edges of the terminal.

Terminal Location

In addition, the terminal should not be nearer than 300mm to an opening in the building fabric formed for the purpose of accommodating a built in element such as a window frame.

• Ensure that the room is adequately ventilated the first time that the appliance is ignited; we would recommend opening windows if possible. Run the appliance at full setting for a few hours so that the paint gets an opportunity to fully cure. During this period it is possible for some fumes and vapours to be given off. We would recommend keeping children and pets out of the area at this time.

Operating Control Locations
The main control of your appliance is the gas fire control valve, which is situated at the bottom left hand side of the appliance (when the door is opened).

Remote Handset Control Overview
IMPORTANT USER INFORMATION—AFTER INSTALLATION BY THE GAS SAFE ENGINEER, READ THIS BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO OPERATE THE APPLIANCE.
NOTE— The handset is supplied paired to the gas control valve. DO NOT ALTER THE PAIRING, this will only compound any difficulties you may have understanding how to operate the handset.
The handset is designed with safety in mind, to avoid accidental operation.If for any reason the pairing has been altered, then the handset will not work. The handset needs to be reset and paired again (See servicing section of this manual).

General: To operate the remote handset: Hold the handset as shown, wrapping your hand around the handset touching both sides, and the green unlock light will illuminate allowing the buttons to work. (If the green light is not lit, the buttons will not operate).

To Ignite The Appliance: Press and hold in the power symbol button for a short period and release immediately the word Pilot appears at the bottom left of the display (after approximately 2 seconds). The appliance will then light. (Note: releasing the power button too soon or holding too long after Pilot is shown, will result in the appliance not starting correctly).

Adjusting The Level Of Heat Setting: To adjust the heat setting, hold the handset to enable the buttons to work, press and hold the – button to reduce the setting. Tapping the button will adjust the flame step by step. Holding the button will skip through the steps. Similarly, press the + button to increase the setting as required.

To Turn The Appliance OFF: To the appliance off, hold handset to unlock the buttons and then press the power button. The appliance will immediately stop without. Do not attempt to re-start the appliance, until STOP appears on the display.
It is intended that the handset is only going to be successfully used by an operator, with a deliberate act.
For this reasons it might take a few attempts to become familiar with the starting of the appliance, however, once understood, I hope you agree this is a good thing for safety reasons.
It is necessary to prevent the control from being operated by accident.

NOTE: Manual Control Of Appliance

The appliance can be manually controlled in the event the remote handset becomes damaged or lost. Simply open the fire door, caution must be exercised as the appliance may be hot, wear a suitable glove. Locate the fire control valve on the left hand side of the appliance (see page 33), the power (ignition) and flame increase / decrease buttons can be used as per the same controls as the remote handset operation.

Trouble Shooting / FAQ

Why does my fire not light ?

• Batteries need replacing
• Batteries incorrectly inserted
• Contamination of battery contacts from leaking batteries
• Contamination of pilot assembly, contamination of valve from gas pipe particles
• Faulty gas supply, faulty thermocouple or connections
• Dis-lodged ceramic logs

Remedies of the above possible faults

• Replace the batteries with new, good quality AA/LR6 batteries
• Check and/or replace the batteries with known working ones
• Clean the battery contacts, remove any grease / dirt and replace batteries.
• All remaining scenarios please contact a gas safe engineer.

Why does my fire not stay lit or will not respond from remote handset?

• Battery failure / damaged remote handset
• An error code is displayed upon handset
• Faulty gas supply
• Blocked chimney / flue system / incorrectly installed appliance

Remedies of the above possible faults

• Replace the batteries with new, good quality AA/LR6 batteries
• If the stove has been running allow to cool and operate the appliance using the fire control valve, to rule out faults with the appliance or remote handset.
• All remaining scenarios please contact a gas safe engineer, to verify the flue system and fault code analysis, to determine the problem.

Battery Replacement
The gas control valve which operates the appliance is battery powered and require replacing periodically; after removing the plastic front cover from the control, the batteries (3 No. AA/1.5V LR6) are fitted and positioned as shown below, always replace the plastic cover, once the new batteries have been fitted.

The remote display handset also has batteries as shown below. Again, remove the rear cover and replace the batteries (2 No. AA/1.5V LR6), observing the correct position as shown.
It is important that the batteries are replaced at least every 12 months, otherwise, the pairing to the fire control valve will be lost and you will no longer be able to control your appliance via the handset.
A re-pairing of the handset to the fire control valve will be needed to be performed to re-instate the lost communication between the two components (see page 30).

Remote Display Handset Optional Functions

DETAILED FUNCTIONS
Upon successful insertion of the batteries in the handset the display will be as shown.
The handset will be supplied paired to the fire and all that is required is to set the time of day and select if a 24h hour clock or 12 hour clock display is required and if temperature display is on Celsius or Fahrenheit.

SETTING THE TIME
Holding the handset as described previously to unlock the keypad, press and hold “SET” for a few seconds and the display will be as shown

Setting the display for 12 or 24 Hour display
As always when pressing the remote control buttons keep the control held to keep the green light on and therefore handset safety feature, unlocked. The H indicates that it is time to set the timer to either 24 hour display or 12 Hour (AM or PM ) display. Press the + or – button on the handset to toggle between the two settings. When you are ready to confirm the setting you want press the “SET” button to progress to setting the day of the week.

Setting the day of the week

• Press and release the + and – buttons until the correct day of the week is shown on the display.
• (Mo = Monday, Tu= Tuesday, We=Wednesday, Th=Thursday, Fr=Friday, Sa=Saturday and Su=Sunday).
• Press “SET” to accept the day of the week and to progress to setting the Hour of the day.

Note: Whilst doing this setup pressing “SET” advances to the next display and pressing “MODE” will return you to the previous display setting.

Setting the Hour & Minutes

• Press and release the + or – button to change the hour to the correct hour and press set to store and to move to setting the minute. Repeat this for setting the minutes.

Setting the temperature display to Celsius or Fahrenheit.

• Press and release the + or – button to toggle between C and F .
• When the display shows the desired symbol, press and release the “SET” button to store.
• As the important settings above have now been done. Press and hold (not releasing straight away) the “SET” button for a few seconds and this will exit the setup menu. Alternatively you can press and release the set button several more times until the time of day is displayed on the handset.
• The control is now ready for use with the Fire Control Valve.

Note: the legend at the bottom shows the battery condition of both the batteries in the hand set and in the fire control alternately. RC = Remote Control handset and FC = Fire control. The control is designed to get the most out of the batteries but when eventually the display shows they are spent (When the battery legend is a empty area), we recommend you change the batteries in the handset before they are flat, to avoid having to reprogram the time of day in again. N.B. Pairing is not lost, even if the batteries are removed or flat. The pairing is not lost when the batteries are flat but replacing them quickly before they have gone flat will avoid having to set the time of day, day of the week etc again)

Paging the handset
If you have misplaced the handset (and it is in range of the fire), you can page it by pressing the + button only on the fire control for around 5 seconds. The handset will flash and make a noise to help you to locate it.

Once you pick up the TESC it knows you hold it and so the sound stops. The flashing and sound will last for 60 seconds each time the handset is paged as described. If not found in 60 seconds, page again and so on. NOTE: PRESS “+” Button ONLY , NOT “+” and “-‘ Together as you will accidentally break the handset pairing and have to reset handset to factory state and pair again (See other parts of the booklet if this happens).

Advanced settings Menu
In the event that you may want to change the other preset settings of the control features. Do not do a long press and hold above but a normal short press and release will take you into the advanced settings area. Advanced settings options are:- Back light –

• A = Automatic (default setting). The back light comes on in the dark but not in the light.
• 0 = Light never comes on.
• 1 = Light comes on when ever handset is unlocked.
• Display contrast – 8 levels from 0 to 7 (default level 4) .
• P = pairing with other devices other than the fire control. The hand set can pair with other modules to :-
• L= Operate an electric light – which is the dimmable in 9 steps
• F= operate an electric fan –which can have 9 speed levels
• A= operate an auxiliary contact to operate another device.

Other Modes than Manual mode
Depending upon the model of fire your handset maybe enabled to have some automatic features, namely, Thermostat mode, timed thermostat mode and snooze mode. Snooze mode can be selected to work with in conjunction with either manual or thermostatic modes.
You can switch between modes at any time with the handset unlocked by pressing and releasing mode button to toggle between modes.

Note: If at any time the power button is pressed during operation, this will stop the fire and exit any automatic mode and return the handset to manual (MAN) operation mode.

Snooze mode in manual operation

• Snooze mode is a time period you can set which will turn off the fire after a certain time period has elapsed. The snooze time period can be set before or during manual operation of the fire. Hold the handset to unlock as described previously and press the mode button as many times as necessary until the word MAN and the Zzz symbols are flashing at the top of the display. Press and release the set button and this will put the con-trol into Manual snooze mode.
• The default time period for the snooze time period is 1:00 hour. Pressing the set button again will show you the snooze time period remaining. This can be adjusted by pressing the “+” or “-“ buttons. The timer period that can be set is from 1 minute to 4:00 hours.
• After adjusting the time, press set again to enter the time setting required (or if left for a few seconds this time is now stored and used).
• Once this countdown timer has reached zero the fire will turn off (as if you had pressed off manually, it does not recycle).

Snooze mode in thermostatic mode

• The same thing as above can be done before or during a thermostatic mode operation (see below).
• The handset has within it a thermostat sensor and this can be set so the fire will heat the room to match he temperature set in the handset.
• There are 3 temperature types that can be set:-
  • Day mode temperature that has a sun symbol on the display – the default temperature is 24 C
  • Night temperature that has a half moon symbol on the display- the default temperature setting is 18 C
  • Frost protection that has a snowflake symbol on the display – the default temperature setting is 5 C

Hold handset and press and release the mode button several times as necessary until the display has a thermometer symbol flashing at the top of the display. Press the set button to enter this mode.
Press the set button again to see the temperature setting that is set and the mode (the default is 24 C ) and on the left of the display is a sun symbol showing it’s the day temperature.

Press the set button again to see the temperature setting that is set and the mode (the default is 24 C ) and on the left of the display is a sun symbol showing it’s the day temperature.
If a different set temperature is required, while the display is showing this set temperature , press the + and – buttons to alter the setting. When finished either press set or leave and after a few seconds the new setting will be accepted and the display will return to the time of day screen.

On the anniversary of the net minute of the clock, the set temperature will be compared to the actual temperature displayed on the handset (i.e. the room ambient temperature around the handset). If the room temperature is higher than the set temperature the fire will not light until the room has cooled to below the set temperature. The fire would then automatically turn itself on when the room is cooler than the set temperature and down and off if necessary when it is hotter than the set temperature.

(Note- when the set temperature is reached while the fire is in operation, the fire reduces the burner power level each minute until the burner is off. The pilot will remain on for a further 30 minutes and if the set temperature is still too high , the pilot will then also extinguish. When the set temperature is higher than the actual temperature , the fire will automatically light and go to the full burner rate to reheat the room back to the set temperature.

• If at any time the power button is operated during Thermostat mode, the control will cancel any thermostat operation and return the control to manual mode.
• For ease of setting there are two other modes that can be selected as stated above. Night mode (moon symbol) and frost protection setting (a snow flake). These can be selected (and adjusted if necessary) by pressing set then mode while in thermostat mode. Pressing mode button toggles through from day to frost modes. The purpose of these settings is to help your fire to automatically protect you home against becoming too cold if there is a sudden change in the weather. The control must be left in the appropriate mode for this to function.
• As stated in an earlier section, snooze function can also be operated in conjunction with thermostat mode. The thermostat symbol and the Zzz symbol will be on together when in this mode.

Timed thermostat mode (Closed fires Only)

• This mode enables the various day, night and frost thermostat modes to be set on a program timer. The control will work as a thermostat switching between the day, night and frost temperature settings in line with the program set.
• The set up of the timer will be shown by a demonstration.
• To set up the timed thermostat to be at 24 C from 06:00 to 09:00 then drop to 18 C from 09:00 to 15:30 and then 24 C again from 15:30 until 23:30 and then to protect from frost a 5 C setting between 23:30 to 06:30 the next day from Monday to Friday this is what you would do:-

Hold handset to unlock – press set and hold until a beep and release. Press MODE button until the timer symbol is flashing on the top of the display – press set to enter the time mode – ‘Mo’ is flashing so it is already set for Monday – press SET and release now press the + and – buttons to make the time of day read 06:00 (note the steps are in 15 minutes steps) – press SET and release- press + and – to make the next symbol show a flashing sun symbol- press and release SET- as Mo is flashing press and release SET again enter the next time of 09:00- press and release SET- change the flashing sun symbol to a flashing moon symbol by pressing and releasing the + and – buttons then press and release SET again to store the moon setting (18 c)- continue this until you have entered each time and temperature change required for each day.

To put the fire into thermostat timer mode press and release the mode button until the thermostat and timer symbols are displayed on the display at the top. Press and release the “SET” button and the control will now run the timed program set up in the memory.

To put the fire into thermostat timer mode press and release the mode button until the thermostat and timer symbols are displayed on the display at the top. Press and release the “SET” button and the control will now run the timed program set up in the memory.
