4. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

START-UP 

•  Fill the tank with clean fuel. ONLY USE Diesel or Kerosene

•  Connect the plug to the relevant power source

•  The left display will show “- -”, the right display will show the ambient 

temperature.

•  Push the power switch to “ON”.

•  The default temperature setting is 20’C (left display)

•  If the ambient temperature is lower than the default temperature, the 

electrodes will start sparking & after 7 seconds the heater will start.

•  If the ambient temperature is higher than the default temperature, turn the 

thermostat control knob to the desired temperature. The electrodes will 

start sparking & after 7 seconds the heater will start.

COLD START-UP 

In low temperature, in Alpine/Highland/Inland regions, unseasonably cold weather. 

Block the air vent hole on the air pump (see Fig. 4) by using your finger during ignition 

to make start-up easier.

ABNORMAL OPERATION:

In case of malfunction (flame failure, reduced air flow, bad combustion) the heater 

stops and the indicator light starts FLASHING (THE LOCK-OUT MODE code will be 

showed on the display window). 

MANUAL RESET/RESTART 

If the heater is in lock-out mode, check and remove the cause of lock-out before 

restarting the heater. To reset, turn the ON/OFF switch to 0 and then again to I. If 

problem continues please contact Fanmaster. Turning the thermostat control knob 

will NOT reset the heater.

SHUTDOWN

Move switch  to “OFF” (O) position.

•  Never disconnect the heater from mains to stop it while in operation.

• 

Always allow the cooling sequence to be completed, otherwise the residual heat 

could damage internal components.

•  Do not cover the heater. Do not block the air inlet and outlet.

The heater outlet is very hot during operation and after use. Do not touch! Use 

personal protecting equipment if needed.

•
