Flame Characteristic
The flame pattern at the burner mesh should be visually checked whenever the heater is
operated. Normally the burner flame is blue with yellow flame at the top. The Burner mesh will
become red hot. If flames extend beyond the surface of the burner mesh, or the phenomena of
flame lift or light back, or black spot is accumulating on the burner mesh or reflector, the
heater should be turned off immediately. The heater should not be operated again until the
unit is serviced or repaired.

• Regularly clean your patio heater between uses and especially after extended periods of storage.
• Ensure the heater control is turned fully to the off position. the gas supply is shut off at the regulator
or bottle / cylinder valve, and the heater and its components are sufficiently cool before cleaning.
• Never douse the heater with water when its surfaces are hot.
• We recommend that servicing of this appliance should be performed either after every 100 hours of
use or annually, which ever is achieved soonest.
Fixings

Storage
