Make sure that the patio heater cannot fall
over if the wind is strong. If necessary, screw
the patio heater securely to the ground to
protect it against strong winds.
The patio heater must not be exposed to
precipitation and must be protected from
the elements during use and storage.
The patio heater must not be installed in
caravans, camper vans or boats.
The patio heater should be placed on a � rm,
level surface before being lit.
This surface must be non-� ammable, e.g.
� agstones, paving stones or packed earth.
There must be no combustible materials
such as grass, plants or rubbish under or
near to the patio heater.
Keep the patio heater at a safe distance
from combustible materials during use.
NOTE!
Parts of the patio heater become
very hot when in use. Keep children at a safe
distance from the patio heater. Do not move
the patio heater whilst it is lit or hot. Never
use it indoors.
WARNING!
Keep children and pets at a safe
distance from the patio heater.
Position the gas hose so that it does not
come into contact with hot parts of the
patio heater, and keep it straight.
Only use the type of gas and gas bottle
indicated by the manufacturer.
Only use gas hoses approved by the
relevant national authorities. The gas hose
must be a maximum of 150 cm long and
must be � tted with an approved regulator.
Check regularly that the gas hose is not split
or crumbling and replace if necessary.
The entire gas system (pipes, hoses,
regulator, pilot and burner) must be leak
tested and should be inspected for damage
before use and at least once a year by a
professional.
The gas bottle must be placed inside
the patio heat cabinet. Do not cover the
ventilation holes in the cabinet for the gas
bottle.
The gas bottle must be changed outside at
a safe distance from naked � ames and other
sources of ignition.
If you discover a leak, turn off the gas supply
at the regulator immediately and avoid
naked � ames and other sources of ignition.
Wait a few minutes until the area has aired.
Carry out a leak test when you connect a
new gas bottle or if the patio heater has not
been used for a prolonged period.
Do not carry out the leak test using a naked
� ame! See ‘Leak test’.
If there is a leak in the connection between
the regulator and the gas bottle, remove
the regulator, replace it and carry out a new
leak test. If bubbles still form, the gas bottle
valve is defective. Contact the retailer where
you bought the gas bottle.
Always turn off the gas supply using the
regulator after use.
Do not attempt to modify the patio heater,
including the regulator and the burner. Do
not try to open parts that have been sealed
at the factory.
