Notes on Installation: Gas Supply A suitable gas supply needs to be provided to the Left hand rear corner of the installation cavity. The pipe sizing should be calculated to supply at least 40MJ/h Allow sufficient pipe to make the connection as shown below: Electronic Manual A 295 250 B 158 172 Electrical Supply The Firebox is supplied with a power lead approx 1.8 m long.
Mantles A mantle may be installed above this appliance but must be within the grey area as shown here. Timber surrounds If a timber surround is to be fitted, ensure it complies with minimum timber clearances of 300mm above (as for mantles) and 150mm each side. Hearths Although a Hearth is not required, Real Fires does recommend that protection is given to any non-combustible flooring directly in front of the fire.
Firebox Installation: Pearl (Glass Trimmed) Fire For Pearl or other Glass trimmed fires, the left and right trim hanging tabs need to be removed to provide a flat surface for the glass to mount to. Timber Framing Cavity Design NOTE: The firebox and flue need to be installed before the wall can be lined! It is recommended that the cavity lintel is left off until the flue and firebox have been installed.
Seismic Restraint If seismic restraint is required then use the strap provided, Slide the strap through the bottom back rail of the fire box and secure to the cavity base. Masonry Cavity Cavity Design NOTE: Remember that both gas and electricity are required within the cavity (Refer to Notes on Installation, page 5) Notes: • These instructions are for either new masonry/non combustible cavities or existing masonry fire places.
Preparation of firebox If the flexi flue adaptor is to be used then there are modifications that need to be made to the firebox. • • • • • Firstly, remove the top insulating panel and insulation. Remove the 4 screws holding the twin skin flue spigot in place and carefully remove the spigot.
Burner Commissioning Once the firebox has been installed and fixed to the building the gas and electricity can be connected. Some people elect to leave this until the decorating has been completed and the installation can be finished, remember that the trim can not be attached until the wall lining is finished.
• The spark electrode will start to spark across to the pilot and gas will flow through the pilot. If the pilot does not light within the first minute the ON/OFF button will need to be pressed twice to re-set and restart the ignition sequence. • Once the pilot has lit and the gas control has sensed the flame through the flame rod, gas will start to flow through to the main burner. As soon as the burner has lit fully, press the Flame Up button on the remote control. • Check the Inlet pressure o 1.
Manual Burner CAUTION Isolate the power and gas supplies before commencing work on the fire! • Remove the burner assembly by removing the two fixing screws in front of the burner and pull the tray forward and then upwards to remove from the gas control. • There may be aeration sleeves attached to the venturi tubes on the back of the burner, take care not to loose these, there is a chart on page 13 that shows which aeration sleeve should be used depending on the gas and burner media being used.
• Turn the knob clockwise to the minimum burner setting and check the minimum burner pressure against the data plate. Adjustment is made using the Burner Low Pressure Set screw on the front of the gas control. • Push the knob in and rotate clockwise until the burner and pilot are extinguished • Remove the manometer and check all connections and test points for leaks using a soapy solution.
Trim Installation Notes: • The outer trim panel cannot be installed until the wall board has been attached and finished (decorated) • It is recommended that the installation of the trims and burner media is left until the room is complete and all decoration is finished. • Leave the protective cardboard cover taped to the front of the firebox using a low-tack tape to prevent plaster dust and debris from entering the firebox and damaging the paint work.
Minimal/Painted Front Refer to Notes on Trims (page14) before starting • Fit the Minimal Trim so that the two hooks in each end fit over the screws in the side of the firebox as shown below. • Fix the trim in place using an earthing screw (with serrated washer) in one end of the trim. • Fit the reflectors by fitting over the front trim at an angle and the standing up against the side of the firebox. There is a catch above the top edge of the reflector to hold it in place.
Pearl/Glass Front TAKE CARE WHEN HANDLING THE GLASS PANELS! DO NOT DROP OR TWIST THE GLASS ASSEMBLIES AS THIS CAN CAUSE THE GLASS PANELS TO IMPACT ON EACH OTHER AND MAKE THEM CHIP OR SHATTER Refer to Notes on Trims (page14) before starting • Before fixing the trim on, make sure that the trim hanging tabs (used on other models) have either been removed or flattened to give the trim a flat surface to fix to.
• Remove the upper front bracket screw (this will prevent the front panel from being fitted correctly). • Fit the lower Inlet Cover flush with the Outer Trim glass using 2 screws through the base of the fire box. • Fit the Upper Inlet Cover as with the Lower Inlet Cover • Fit the Front Panel Assembly and hold in place using 2 Earthing Screws (1 in each end of the front). • Fit the reflectors by fitting over the front trim at an angle and the standing up against the side of the firebox.
Burner Media Installation Logs/Coals and Vermiculite • • Fit the Rear Log Locator panel (supplied with the Logs and Coals) to the back of the burner using 4 screws. Use a flat screw driver or similar to bend all of the log locating tags up wards until square to the burner. • Place (DO NOT POUR*) all of the supplied vermiculite on the burner and spread evenly across the entire surface of the burner. • Place one coal onto each of the 23 Locating Pins.
Final Checks Check that the fire operates properly in all modes (high & low gas rates, fan high & low; low only on manual model.) Make sure that all the supplied parts are used and properly installed. It is important that the customer is fully aware of how to operate the fire properly and safely. Advise the customer of the need for regular servicing in order to maintain the warranty.

Real Fires Electronic Range User Guide & Service Manual Important Notes This appliance has been tested in accordance with AS 4558-2000 and NZS 5262:2003 and has been certified by the Australian Gas Association (Certificate Number 7512). DO NOT OPERATE THIS FIRE WITHOUT READING AND UNDERSTANDING THESE INSTRUCTIONS. Please keep these instructions for future reference. FOR YOUR SAFETY DO NOT PLACE ARTICLES ON OR AGAINST THIS APPLIANCE. DO NOT USE OR STORE FLAMMABLE MATERIAL NEAR THIS APPLIANCE.
Fire Features Hot Air Outlet Louvre Outer Trim Reflectors Burner Media (Logs, Coals/ Pebbles/ Glass) Front Panel Control Panel Air Intake Operating Instructions To operate your fire for the first time, ensure that the gas supply is on and that the fire has been tested and certified by the installer. Switch on the power supply to the Real Fire. This is usually a wall switch near to the fireplace.
Real Fires Electronic Range User Guide & Service Manual Remote Control Notes There are a few things you should know about your Remote Control to keep it working at its best: • It uses four AAA batteries. With new batteries the Remote Control will work from about 8 metres away from the fire. • When replacing the batteries, replace all four; do not mix old with new. • Remove the batteries if the fire is not going to be used for extended periods.
Logs and Coals, Pebbles, Glass The Logs and Coals, Pebbles, or Glass should have been positioned correctly by the installer. It is not intended that these are repositioned by the user. Incorrect positioning can affect heat output and ignition. Only Logs and Coals, Pebbles and Glass supplied by the manufacturer may be used in this fire. Due to the nature of luminous flames used in this fire a slight build-up of carbon may be seen. This is quite normal and will not affect the performance of the fire.
Real Fires Electronic Range User Guide & Service Manual Cleaning Regular cleaning of your Real Fire is important to keep it looking its best. Some points on cleaning: • Do not use abrasive cleaners on any panels. • All of the exterior painted panels can be cleaned using household cleaners. • The black interior panels and the Logs and Coals may develop a slight build-up of soot; this is quite normal and may burn off over time.
• If the flames change shape or colour. When the fire first starts, the flames will tend to be quite blue for a few minutes but will change to a more yellow/orange colour as the system heats up. This is normal, but if the flames either stay very blue, or turn a dark, streaky, orange colour, this could indicate a problem.
Real Fires Electronic Range User Guide & Service Manual Service Instructions Disconnect the mains power before commencing any service work. Servicing is only to be carried out by a certified gas fitter. Refer to the Parts Diagrams on page 11 for more details. It is not necessary to remove the outer trim but it is recommended to do so with the non-glass trims as they can be scratched during service if not careful.
Check the main injectors • Inspect the injectors for any sign of damage or blockage and remedy as required. Service the pilot: • Inspect the pilot and flame rods for any signs of damage or wear. By blocking the main injectors (a silicon tube across both injectors works well) the fire can be started and operated with just the pilot operating if required. • Remove the front pilot assembly bracket and the pilot head can be removed and cleaned; the pilot injector can now also be inspected and cleaned.
Real Fires Electronic Range User Guide & Service Manual Recheck burner pressure: • Connect a manometer to the burner pressure test point. • Reconnect the power and start the fire. • Using the remote control, adjust the burner pressure to its maximum and check the pressure against the data plate. • Adjustment of the burner pressure is done using the nut and screw shown on the diagram on page 11. Take care not to turn the low pressure set screw when adjusting the high pressure and vice versa.
