Notes and General Information
These instructions should be read and carefully followed for the
safe and economical use of your appliance.
These gas fire fronts are to be used with specially designed
Glow-worm 45/4 & 54/4 Back Boiler Units only.
The fire front and back boiler must be installed as a complete
unit.
The boiler and fire can be operated together or independently.
Important Notice
This appliance is for use on natural gas (G20) as distributed in
the United Kingdom and Ireland and must not be used on any
other gas.
A slight smell may occur for a short time after initial lighting, this
is quite normal and with use it will quickly disappear.
Combustible furniture or materials must not be placed closer
than 1m (39in) in front of the fire front.
Soft wall coverings(e.g. embossed vinyl, etc.) which have a
raised pattern, are easily affected by heat. They may, therefore,
scorch or become discoloured when close to a heating appliance.
Please bear this in mind whenever you are considering
redecorating
The convection air openings at the top of the fire front and air
inlet grilles at the sides and base must never be restricted.
Never use the fire with damaged radiants.
