How to Operate the Burner
Lighting the Burner
Keep hands and face the length of the lighting rod away from
the Burner at all times, particularly when igniting. Before lighting,
ensure that the Burner is clear and ready for use. Open the slider fully
and wait for 60 seconds for the residual fumes to dissipate before
lighting.
Check the slider is free from obstruction and operating smoothly.
(Refer to Troubleshooting section on page 20 if diculties are
experienced).
Do not smoke while lighting the Burner, and make sure that no one is
in front of the replace while igniting the Burner. Only use the lighter
supplied with your EcoSmart Fire.

1. Dip the lighting rod tip into the chamber opening “Burner zone” to
wet the end.
2. Lift the lighting rod away from the Burner (do not drip fuel on the oor).
3. Ignite the lighter and make contact with the lighting rod as if lighting
a candle.
4. Dip the ignited lighting rod back into the Burner zone to ignite the
contained fuel.
5. Allow residual ame on lighting rod to burn out.
NOTE: The XL900 & XL700 is best ignited from the right hand side of
the ignition zone.
Once lit there will be a residual ame on the lighting rod that must burn
out before putting the rod away. If the ame on the lighting rod dies
before reaching the burner, repeat the procedure until successful.
Due to some residual oil in the bres we use in the Burner there is a
stronger smell when rst operating. It will decrease substantially after
the rst few times you use the Burner, and even more so over time. To
minimise this, wash the burner out in hot water before using. The Burner
must be completely dry and cool before lling with fuel.
Regulating the Flame
Not applicable for BK2UL or BK3 models.
Wait until the re is established (approx 10 minutes) before regulating.
To decrease the ame intensity insert the lighting rod tip through the
circular ring and push forward gently to desired setting. Only use the
lighting rod supplied with your EcoSmart Fire to avoid hand burns.
To increase the ame intensity insert the lighting rod tip through the
circular ring and pull back gently to desired setting. Only use the lighting
rod supplied with your EcoSmart Fire to avoid hand burns.
Baes
Accessories are available to regulate models that are ON/OFF
functioning only – these baes are inserted into the burner opening
when cold and not operating – this increases the eciency of the
burner as well as decreases the output of the burner. Contact your
local retailer/distributor or head oce.
Note: Regulatory function and accessories not applicable to BK2UL, VB2
and AB3 – in these models, the control must be in the fully ON or fully
OFF position only. The ame cannot be adjusted.
XL900 4 x Baes
XL500 2 x Baes
XL700 3 x Baes
Important: All Burner parts will age over the course of time through
natural processes associated with use, heat and ame.
Please also note that new stainless steel has an oil coating that will burn
o during the rst few uses. You will notice an accumulation of carbon
around the top opening of the Burner zone and its vents. This will appear
quickly and is normal. You will need to perform your rst maintenance
after approximately 20 litres [5.28 Gal] of e-NRG Bioethanol burnt.
After this, the accumulation will be far slower and maintenance can then
occur every 50 litres [13.20 Gal] of e-NRG Bioethanol burnt. If anything
abnormal appears, do not operate the appliance. If the re is running, turn
it o immediately and contact your distributor before using again.
