IMPORTANT NOTE
•
When lighting the heater for the f irst time or a new cylinder is connected, the air inside
the hose must be purged. This process will take a few minutes as liquef ied petroleum gas
is heavier than air
•
As a result the variable control knob should be pressed down at the Pilot position for 3
Minutes instead of the normal 60 second period
•
This ensures the gas purges the air in the hose and passes f rom the cylinder through to
the main burner
