The housing for the gas bottle is not airtight and has to be correctly ventilated. It is equipped with an upper
ventilation slot above the top of the bottle (of an area min 1/100 of the area of the base of the housing) and
a lower ventilation slot (of an area min 1/50 of the area of the base of the housing).
WARNING!!!
Before gas cylinder replacement, please block the wheels of the device.
3.5.1. Installation of the gas linkage and gas cylinder replacement
WARNING!!!
The montage and service needs to be conducted by a qualified professional, a company or the gas
supplier.
Before proceeding with the connection of the gas cylinder to the fireplace all activity regarding the correct placement
and installation of the FARO needs to be already performed. Place the gas linkage away from hot or sharp edges and
make sure it is not twisted.
The FARO is delivered together with an elastic gas linkage which, on one end is connected to the valve of the device
and one the other end to the gas regulator ready to be connected to the gas cylinder.

If your gas cylinder has a different inlet size or requires a different regulator, replace the included regulator with the
required one (available separately at your local market)
One needs to control the expiry date both of the regulator as well as the gas linkage and if necessary (for instance:
broken, cut, scratched linkage) replace the components for new ones according to national standards and norms.
The FARO fireplace can use metal or steel bottles or composite bottles filled with propane-butane gas or propane gas.
WARNING!!!
NEVER use an unstable gas connection (without a regulator).
Gas cylinders have two types of connectors:
•
Twist-on connection: The most important thing is the black seal. Always check if the seal is present and
whether it hasn't been damaged during the gas cylinder replacement. Some connections have a knob to fasten
them in place while others require the use of a wrench. Tighten securely (left thread). Using the tool pay
attention not to fasten the connection too tightly as this may damage the seal.
•
Quick-release: For this type of connection no tool is required. On/off regulation of gas connection is made
through a switch on the regulator or on a special connector. In case of using a connector with a thread
regulator of an old type put a special emphasis on checking if the connecting nut has been tightly fastened
with the help of wrench.
