4.2 THE TRUMA S 3002 EL SPACE HEATER
4.2.1 Gas Operation
Switching on
●
Turn on gas cylinder.
●
For space heaters fitted with manual piezo ignition
(Discovery and Ranger) turn control knob to
thermostat setting 1-10 and press it down as far
as the stop. At the same time keep operating the
piezo ignitor rapidly until the flame ignites.
●
For space heaters fitted with automatic ignition
(Pageant and Senator) rotate the control knob to
10 on the dial and depress the knob.
●
For both types of fire keep the control knob
pressed down for a further 10 seconds to allow
safety pilot to operate.
●
Watch through the flame window for another 10 seconds to make sure that the flame does not go out
through air in the supply pipe (caused by the valve being closed or changing the cylinder).
Always wait at least 2 minutes before attempting to re-ignite, otherwise there is a risk of blowbacks
(misfiring)! This also applies if a working heater goes out and has to be re-lit.
●
To ensure even and rapid warm air distribution as well as lower surface temperatures on the heating
unit, we recommend that you operate the heater with a blown air system.
4.2.2 Thermostat
Set the required room temperature at the control knob (numbers 1 - 10).
For an average room temperature of approx. 22
°
C we recommend setting 3–5 without Trumavent fan
and 4–8 with Trumavent fan.
Switching Off
Set control knob to “0”. If turning off for a longer period of time, close the valve of the gas cylinder.
4.2.3 Important operating notes
▲
If the gas supply line is filled with air, it may take up to a minute before the gas becomes
available for combustion. During this time hold the control knob pressed down and
continuously operate the piezo ignitor until the flame ignites.
▲
You will have to find out the exact thermostat setting yourself, depending on how much
heat you need.
The thermostat probe is underneath the heater. Please note that the thermostat will be
adversely affected by cold draughts from refrigerator vents, gaps below doors, etc. or by a
deep-piled carpet.
Always make sure to avoid problems of this kind, otherwise satisfactory temperature control
cannot be guaranteed.

Repairs are only to be carried out by a competent service engineer.
