OPTIONAL REMOTE CONTROL THERMOSTAT
An optional programmable Remote Control Thermostat can be fitted to the heater at the factory when ordered or even after the heater has been installed. See your Archer dealer for correct type.
Installation:The Remote Control can be installed by the owner of the heater if required. The Remote Control is a battery operated device, which requires a small amount of low voltage plug in wiring. A wiring loom package is supplied by Aurora Climate Systems, which simply plugs onto the front panel and the red button. Refer Page 22.
Remote Control Operation/Programming: Refer to the instruction sheet supplied with the device. Note: Aurora Climate Systems is not the manufacturer of any Remote Control Thermostats and will charge a service fee to the customer who requires a technician to be on site to give operating instructions, installation, set up or programming. If the device appears to be faulty it will need to be posted back to Aurora Climate Systems where the functionality will be checked and returned back to the customer in working order. Aurora Climate Systems recommends that the customer familiarise themselves with the Remote Control Thermostat operation through reading the instructions supplied or by requesting that the installer of the appliance commissions the Remote Control Thermostat.
Economy Display Mode Button

Front Burner

Rear Burner

Operator Switches

Push inwards at bottom for ON

Economy Display Mode (Red Button Operation): The red button above the two burner switches is called the economy display mode and will only function when a Remote Control Thermostat has been installed in the heater. The most common way this button is used is having the Remote Control set on the Thermo mode with a desired temperature set for the heater to cut in and out, which will of course be relevant to the ambient temperature, location and the area the appliance is positioned in. When using a Remote Control Thermostat both burner switches need to be in the on position. When the red button is pressed to be illuminated in conjunction with having both burner switches on, the front burner only will commence ignition and then remain on or if already alight it will now remain on, regardless of what function or temperature is set on the Remote Control. In this situation only the back burner will cut in and out according to the setting on the Remote
Control. We believe by running the heater this way you will use less gas and still have the ascetic affects of the front burner. However if the appliance is in a small area this may get to warm for you. All you need to do then is press the red button so that it is not illuminated and the heater will then revert back to its normal operation. In basic terms the red button acts as a Remote Control override switch for the front burner only. Also the Remote can switch the heater on and off in the high setting, medium setting or low setting. Refer Page 31 – Burner Settings. Note: When the heater or the Remote Control is not being used for long periods the burner switches should be in the off position, also in summer the heater should be turned off at the power point.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
GAS VALVE PRESSURE ADJUSTMENT
The gas valve pressure adjustments must be checked during installation, and if necessary corrected to suit the gas type available. “A” represents the main regulator adjusting screw. Access to this screw is obtained by
removing the brass screw cover; use a flat blade screw driver for adjustment of gas pressure. Note: Gas burner pressure can only be adjusted on high burner setting with both switches medium and low burner in the “ON” position and flames holding on both burners. “B” represents the test point for connecting the manometer. Gas Valve is supplied with brass test tube for connecting the manometer. Note: To obtain reading of gas pressure, open the brass screw located inside test point with a small blade screw driver, before connecting the manometer to test point. On completion of checking burner pressure, tighten the brass screw inside the brass test point.

AUTOMATIC HUMIDIFIER OPERATION

Most gas heaters dry out the air in the room. (Remember the bowls of water in front of the old gas heaters?) The Archer has ingeniously solved this problem with an Automatic Humidifier. Gas contains moisture which is normally expelled out the flue or chimney after combustion. But the Archer is so efficient by taking 92% of the heat out of the burnt gases that the moisture drops out and condenses in the back of the heater. This water is collected in a container which is then pumped up to a stainless steel holding tray, where it evaporates in the stream of hot air which is blowing into your home. Air humidity is automatically restored!
1. The amount of condensate build up in the water sump is dependent on outside temperature, length and height of the flue pipe. The automatic humidifier can operate approximately anywhere from between every 10 minutes to every 6 hour intervals, depending on ambient temperature, style and type of flue. Long single vertical flues can cause the humidifier to come on more often depending on heater settings.
2. When the automatic humidifier is engaged and is transferring the condensate into the stainless steel tray, a hissing sound may be noticeable. This occurs when the condensate enters the stainless steel holding tray and is quite normal. The duration of the sound may vary from 3 to 30 seconds until the stainless steel holding tray has been filled with the condensate.
3. When the automatic humidifier pump comes on to pump condensate into the stainless steal tray (located on the top of the heater), the L.E.D light (Page 31) on the front pan-
el will light up and flash for the duration of the condensate pump operating, and then extinguish after the pump has stopped operating. This means water has been pumped into the tank, and automatic humidification will commence.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS CHECKLIST
BEFORE OPERATING THIS APPLIANCE, CAREFULLY PROCEED THROUGH THE FOLLOWING CHECK LIST.

Read and understand these instructions before installing or operating this

appliance.

Installation of this appliance is only to be carried out by a licensed gas fitter who

preferably should be familiar with the installation of the Archer Heater.

Installers who are not familiar with the installation of this appliance should

contact Aurora Climate Systems prior to installing the appliance to avoid

creating hazardous operating conditions.

No deviations on installation are allowed, unless they are specifically approved in

writing by the manufacturer of the appliance.

Wrongful or deviations taken by the installers on the installation of this

appliance, will result in the heater not starting up or operating incorrectly

causing a safety hazard and will void the manufacturer’s warranty of the

appliance.

Check and inspect the appliance for gas leaks. In the event of gas leaks, cut off the

gas supply to the heater immediately and call your gas supplier or installer.

Check and verify that all flue venting combustion air intakes and flue cowl are

unobstructed.

Refer to page 13 for Single Flue pipe and page 14 for Co-Axial Flue installations,

that correct flue pipe and cowl has been fitted in line with the manufacturer’s

specifications as illustrated in the Installation Manual Pages 13-20.

Do not use alternative Flue or Cowl on installation other than that specified in

this manual – otherwise heater will malfunction and cause hazardous operating

conditions and will void the manufacturer’s warranty.

Check and verify that flue pipe connection to the appliance when using single

40mm flue pipe installation is correctly installed and secured in line with

instruction in the Installation Manual Pages 16-20.

29

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS CHECKLIST cont…

Prior to operating the appliance check for dust or particles lying on top of the

burners. Refer Page 10.

Check and verify that logs are placed correctly as per instructions on

Pages 8-11 of this Installation Manual. If logs are incorrectly positioned or

placed wrongly it can create a hazardous situation, and in most instances, the

heater will not operate correctly.

Do not light heater without logs fitted, as heater will not operate.

For your personal safety, check and verify that polarities are correct in the

power supply to the heater. Also check for proper earth connections at the

power source. If polarities in power supply are incorrect, change the polarities

in the power supply to heater, NOT in the heater cord. Incorrect polarity’s

will cause the appliance not to function correctly.

Check and verify prior to starting up the appliance, that all panels are secured

in place and that the main door has been locked in position.

After verifying and checking all the above points proceed to lighting

instructions. Refer page 31.

PLEASE NOTE: IS700 MODEL “COLD START” It will take anywhere from one to two hours or more for the front burner to fully carry. It may be necessary to start the front burner only and let it run for 20 minutes or more to correctly flame sense. After this is achieved, the rear burner can be switched on. This procedure may be required depending on the flue type, length and gas type. The front burner is longer than the rear, so it will take longer to carry and track. PLEASE NOTE: PUMP CONTAINER When the pump container is dry, you may hear popping and rumbling sounds coming from the container itself. This may come and go depending on the water levels and condensate rate, which is a normal operation of the heater.

LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS

1. Main Electrical power supply must always be switched on to the unit with the two burner switches in the off position (up) before commencing lighting the heater.
2. Turn on main gas supply. 3. Verify that main electrical supply is switched on by checking the 240V AC power status display (Item 3)
indication is on. 4. Burner selection: select low burn, medium burn, or high burn. Low burn switch (Item 1) controls the front
burner only. Medium burn switch (Item 2) controls the rear burner only. When both switches are down, they will activate both the low and medium burners, which is the high setting. 5. Heater operating LED sequence (Front Display Panel). Before commencing ensure that the power L.E.D (Item 3) is on and burner switches are off. Switch on the heater by engaging the low and medium burner switch, this will activate the pressure switch and the flue fan L.E.D (Item 4) will be on. Also the two burner L.E.D’s (Items 5 & 6) will commence flashing for 35 seconds prior to ignition. Once both burners have ignited the burner L.E.D’s will remain on. If you cant see flame on the rear burner, but the burner L.E.D is on then there will be flame there, which will become more visible as the heater warms up. Once the heater warms up the low speed L.E.D (Item 7) will light and the convection fan will blow warm air from the heater, as the heater becomes warmer the medium L.E.D (Item 8) will come on and when the heater has reached its highest operating temperature all three L.E.D’s (Items 7, 8 & 9) will light up and the convection fan will now be running at its high speed. Refer Page 32 – Fan Operation. When the heater has been running for some time, the water pump L.E.D (Item 10) may come on to signal that the pump has been activated. Refer Page 28 – Automatic Humidifier Operation. Note: Three heat settings are available for operating your Archer heater – low, medium and high. a) Low setting (front burner only) – engage low burn switch only (Item 1) b) Medium setting (rear burner only) – engage medium burn switch only (Item 2) c) High setting (front and rear burners)

Caution: When switching from the front burner to the rear burner, be sure to activate the rear burner first , then turn off the front burner. When switching from the rear burner to the front burner, be sure to activate the front burner first. Simple rule – always activate the desired burner first, then switch the other burner off. If it is switched the wrong way the burner/s will go out and the heater may need to be reset. Refer Page 34 – Resetting the Heater.

31

FAN OPERATION

The 3-speed main convection fan will cut in automatically approximately 3 to 5 minutes after the heater has warmed up. Note: The 3-speed main convection fan is automatically controlled and will operate on three preset speeds. Depending on your burner setting and the surrounding ambient temperature, the L.E.D lights (Items 7, 8 and 9) for the fan will light up. The bottom L.E.D light (Item 7) is low speed setting, and middle L.E.D lights (Item 8) is the medium speed setting, the bottom, middle and top L.E.D lights (Items 7, 8 and 9) is the high-speed setting (both burners on).

Note: The fan will operate totally independent of burner setting – it is controlled by temperature only.

a) Front burner only – low fan speed b) Rear burner only – medium fan speed c) Both front and rear burners – high fan speed

These are approximates only

On changing the burner setting from high to me- dium, or from high to low, there will be a delay on the operating speed of the fan until the firebox has cooled down sufficiently for the fan to change speed.

1. Note: It can take up to approximately 20-30 minutes before the fan speed will change and settle on the next setting. The firebox temperature and the outside ambient temperature will regulate how quickly the fan responds to speed changes.

2 Note: It is quite possible if the room the heater is in starts to reach an ambient of 30°C that the main convection fan could turn itself on even though the heater or burners are switched off. An example of this occurring would be in the summer months or from another source of heating. We recommend if this is occurring that the heater should be turned off at the power point.

HEATER SHUT DOWN INSTRUCTIONS
Turn medium burner switch (Item 2) and low burner switch (Item 1) to the “OFF” position.
Note: The main convection fan in the heater will be operating on and off for up to approximately 45 minutes or more intermittently until the firebox has been cooled down sufficiently for the main fan to stop operating.
Note: Do not cut main electrical supply to the heater after the heater has been switched off to stop main fan operating. Main fan will stop operating automatically after the heater has cooled down sufficiently.

32

OVER TEMPERATURE CUT OUT
The Archer Gas Log Space Heater is protected against overheating with a high temperature 80° cut out switch to protect the heat exchanger, plastic sump and flue fan. The high temperature cut out switch will automatically switch off the gas supply to the heater, if the temperature in the room where the heater is located reaches approximately 28°C. The heater will go into lock out mode. An allowance of 15 minutes minimum must be made to allow for the main fan to cool down the heater prior to restarting the appliance. Note: In most instances, overheating of the heater is a direct result of too much lint and dust having accumulated in the main convection fan. This means the fan won’t be able to supply sufficient air to cool down the heat exchanger. It is recommended that you inspect your main convection fan prior to commencement of the heating season and if necessary have it serviced by a qualified service technician (refer page 35 ­Maintenance).
PAINT CURING – FIRST FIRING
The first fire in your heater is part of the paint curing process. Your Archer Gas Log Space Heater has been painted with the highest quality heat resistant silicon paint available in the world. The temperature this paint can withstand before it breaks down and burns off is around 800°C, which is well in excess of the heater’s normal operating temperature. To ensure that the paint is properly cured light the unit and leave it burning on high burn for approximately 1 hour. 1. Ventilate the house during the first time the heater is being operated. The paint on the heater and the main door glass seal may give off light smoke and an odour. Without adequate ventilation, concentrations of smoke could irritate, or be upsetting, so ensure you have adequate ventilation. After the initial first burn, the paint will be cured and there should be no more smoke. 2. Don’t touch the surface of the heater. It will be soft during this paint-curing phase. Once cured it will not be soft again. 3. The paint finish of the heater should not be cleaned with any caustic or abrasive cleaning solutions 4. Any damage to painted surface should be repaired with special touch paint available from your Archer Dealer.
33

UNIT OPERATING FAULTS
SERVICE AND INSTALLATION OF THE APPLIANCE SHOULD BE CARRIED OUT BY AUTHORISED PERSONNEL ONLY.
THE MAJOR CAUSE OF OPERATING PROBLEMS WITH GAS LOG SPACE HEATERS IS IMPROPER GAS PRESSURE, INCORRECT LOG PLACEMENT, IMPROPER INSTALLATION, INCORRECT FLUE INSTALLATION, INCORRECT SWITCHING OF BURNERS, DIPS/SPIKES IN THE INCOMING POWER OR REVERSE POLARITY’S.
The above situations can cause such problems as changes in flame colour or configuration, intermittent operations, changes in heat output, carbon build up or sooting, bad odours, rattles or other sounds, start up failures and burner/s switching themselves off. These are nearly always the result of improper installation or incorrect operation and it may take sometime for these problems to show themselves. Before calling out a technician you must be able to repeat the fault. If not a service charge will apply. One should always in the event of a fault try resetting the heater. Read below.
Please Note: Incorrect installation of the unit, logs, flue pipe, gas pressure or operation, which cause the above mentioned faults, are not covered under warranty and a service or call out fee will be charged to correct such problems.
RESETTING THE HEATER
There are a number of reasons why sometimes the heater will switch itself off and is the correct thing for the heater to do in certain situations. Eg. Overheating, power failure or dips, windy conditions, pump failure, partial or full blockage of flue pipe or no gas. All of these operations are monitored by the electronic control box inside the heater, which is heat sensitive, pressure switch sensitive, flame sensitive and water sensitive. If one of these items is not correct it will shut itself down.
To reset turn both burner switches in the off position, ensure the red button above the two burner switches is not illuminated. (If a Remote Control is fitted have it in the off mode) Then turn the power off at the power point for approximately 10 seconds. Then turn the power point back on and the power L.E.D should be illuminated. If you have a Remote Control fitted it should be switched to the on mode. Now switch down the right hand burner switch and the rear burner L.E.D should start flashing, with the flue fan L.E.D remaining steady. Now wait approximately 60 seconds for the rear burner to ignite. You can tell when it has lit, even if you cant see any flames, by looking at the rear burner L.E.D which should remain steady. Now repeat the same process with the front burner. Turn on the front burner switch and wait approximately 60 seconds and the front burner L.E.D will remain steady. Then in approximately 5 minutes the convection fan should start and the heater has been successfully reset. Note: if the heater is still warm when reset the convection fan may already be running when the unit is powered up.

MAINTENANCE

Note:

Your appliance should be inspected, serviced and checked annually by a qualified service person to ensure that your appliance is operating safe and efficiently. Should you detect any abnormality in the operation of your appliance call a qualified service person who has been trained and approved to inspect and service the appliance. This may be your installer or dealer. (Routine service is not covered under warranty)

LOG PLACEMENT

Cracks in a log’s surface or crumbling is normal and do not affect the heater’s operation.

If for any reason a log should need replacement, you must use the proper replacement log. Consult your Archer dealer for purchase of correct replacement logs.

Replacement logs must be installed and positioned as outlined on pages 8 to 11 under Log Installation.

Note:

Improper positioning of logs will create carbon build up and will alter the unit’s performance and operation, which is not covered under warranty.

MAIN CONVECTION FAN

The main convection fan in the heater should be checked, serviced and cleaned annually by a qualified service person to ensure that your appliance is operating efficiently.

Note:

If the main convection fan becomes clogged with lint and dust an over temperature situation will occur through the heater exchange system and the over temperature safety switch will stop the heater from operating.

HEAT EXCHANGER

The heat exchanger of the unit is located at the rear of the heater. The heat exchanger should be inspected annually by a qualified service person for lint and dust build up. Excessive dust and lint build up in the heat exchanger can alter the unit’s performance and operation.

Note:

This appliance (Insert and Freestanding Models) needs to be installed in such a way that the heater (especially with models built into a fireplace) can be removed at all times to service the heat exchanger and flue fan, which are located at the rear section of the heater.

Under no circumstances should the appliance be installed under conditions that would not allow for easy removal of the appliance to carry out routine inspection and service work on the appliance. The warranty will be void if access or easy removal is not available.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
1. Front burner is lighting with the red button only. The rear burner isn’t starting. (heaters fitted with remote control or wall thermostats) This usually means the remote or wall thermostat has not been switched to the “ON” position or the receiver box inside the heater behind the front panel needs to be re-learnt. This is done by removing the front panel and then locating the back receiver box as shown below.

ADJ.

LEARN

OFF REMOTE ON

Then with the remote in the “OFF” position gently press and hold the learn button for approximately 5 seconds, then let it go. A small tone should be heard during this process. Now replace the front panel ensuring no wires are pinched or disconnected. Turn the two burner switches to the “ON” position and make sure the red button is in the “OFF” position (not illuminated). Turn the remote to the “ON” position. After a short delay both burner LED’s will start blinking and the heater Will ignite on both burners after approximately 50 seconds.
Important There must be power to the heater for the learn process to occur. The switch on the receiver must be in the remote position for the learn process to occur. The burner switches and the red button must all be in the “OFF” position. You will need some sort of pointy object to press the learn button on the receiver box.
ie. Ballpoint pen or paperclip
2. Front burner stays on all the time. (heaters fitted with remote control or wall thermostats) This will happen when the red button above the two burner switches is in the “ON” position (illuminated). The burner switches themselves are also in the “ON” position but the remote or wall thermostat says off on the screen. You must always turn the red button to the “OFF” position if you don’t want the front burner to remain on (refer page ).
3. There is a beeping noise coming from the heater. (heaters fitted with remote control or wall thermostats) This usually occurs if the signal has been lost from the remote, some interference has occurred with the remote receiver or the receiver in the heater is getting to warm. If the signal has been lost it is recommended that the heater be reset and the receiver box inside the heater be re-learnt.
4. Is the heater polarity conscious? Yes. Failure to have correct polarities in the power point or power cord will result in the heater not operating correctly. Ie. One burner will light then go out straight away.

40

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS cont’d
5. There is a hissing noise coming from the heater. Is this normal? This is a normal occurrence when the humidifier activates and will vary in timing and intensity.
6. There is condensate on the inside of the glass. Is this normal? Yes this is quite common especially from a cold start but will dissipate after a period of time.
7. The humidifier isn’t working. The hissing noise has not been heard for quite some time? If the humidifier was faulty the heater would cease to operate. The amount of times the humidifier will come on during operation of the heater will vary during the year due to things like ambient temperature, humidity, flue type, flue length and whether the heater is running on low medium or high.
8. How do you clean the inside of the glass? We have found that the best results are achieved with car cut and polish.
9. How do you clean the glass on the outside if something has burnt to it? Best results are achieved by using the edge of a blade or a glass scraper. Once the burnt material is removed you can then clean the glass with car cut and polish.
10. Fan keeps jumping between low and medium or medium and high speed. Is this normal? Yes. It is even more common when running burners individually. The fan speed is automatically controlled by a thermal resistor which is sensitive to firebox and ambient temperatures.
11. Glass is going black. Is this normal? No. If the glass has sooted up that you start having difficulty seeing through it this is not normal. Nor is having large build up of soot forming on the logs. Please note: It is normal for some soot to form around the lower and side edges of the glass.
12. There is a flame on the front burner but only a glow on the back burner. Is this normal? Yes. Predominantly this is correct but there may be slight variations in flame patterns due to gas type, flue length and flue type. Also gas pressure settings will affect flame patterns and the amount of glow.
13. Can you select a fan speed? No. The fan is fully automated and controlled by firebox temperature only.
14. Can the heater sit directly on carpet? Yes. The heater is tested and approved as a zero clearance unit to combustibles on the base, sides, top and rear.
15. The heater is giving off strange odours. Is this normal? Yes. This can occur from the environment that the heater is in. The firebox in the heater is a sealed unit and sucks air in for combustion and expels odour out of the flue. However, internal convection air is taken from the room or environment the heater is sitting in and circulated over the outside of the firebox. Ie. Cooking smells, dirty/damp clothing, or pet smells can be sucked in and stores in fine fins at the rear of the heater, then heated back up and amplified into the room via the convection fan.
16. If the paintwork on the heater is damaged or scratched, can I purchase touch up paint? Yes. Aerosol cans are available with the colour from your place of purchase of the heater or direct from Aurora Climate Systems. This is not available with powercoat and stainless steal finiches
