Starting a gas fireplace

    Not sure if this is the right forum for this, but here goes...

    I have a gas fireplace which I haven't lit in ages.
    I can't remember how to do it and I have no instructions.

    On the front there are two controls

    The first is a red knob which you can push or pull.
    It says "coal push - coke pull"

    The second is a black knob which you can twist.
    It says starting from the right: off, ignite, high, low
    To turn the black knob, I push it in, when it reaches "ignite" I can hear what sounds like gas (no smell) and if I twist a little more towards high, it clicks.

    Does anyone know how these things ork?

    thanks

    what make/model number is on the name plate?:

    the black knob is the ignition switch and the click is it sparking:

    It could be a valuable piece of kit if you can pull it for coke:D

    thanks for the response. I'll check the model when I get home.
    When I was trying last night, I noticed that I only see a spark the odd time. It didn't happen at all for a while (which is when I got annoyed and posted). I guess I'll have to keep trying
