Should you smell gas, the mobile heater may be defective or present a gas leak. In this
case, immediately switch off the device: close the pressure regulator, disconnect the device
from the mains and contact your local dealer.
The flexible hose should never be crimped, bent or handled with brute force when using or
handling the device.
Install the gas cylinder so that it is protected. Install it in the back of the mobile heater and
never place it in front of the hot air output.
Never aim the device at the gas cylinder.
Make sure that no object hampers the fan air intake.
Only connect the mobile heater to an earthed mains.
Do not hamper, completely or partially, the air intake at the back and/or the air output at
the front. Avoid using any type of air canalization toward or from the device.
The minimum safety distance is 2 m from walls or any other object.
The mobile heater may only be used on a fireproof surface.

The mobile heater may not be used in rooms where explosive dusts, gases, liquids or any
other flammable materials are present (fabrics, wood, paper, petrol, etc.).
It is recommended to use a fireproof protection if the mobile heater is being used near
steps, curtains or other covering materials. A minimum safety distance of 2.5 m between
the hot parts of the device and any flammable material (fabrics, wood, paper, petrol, etc.)
or from thermolabile materials (included the power cable) must be observed.
Maintenance and internal cleaning activities may only be commended to a specialised
technician appointed by the manufacturer.
The heater must be disconnected from the mains and from any gas-feeding device if the
heater is to be left unattended and if the safety instructions cannot be observed.
If the heater does not switch on or if it switches on in an abnormal way, disconnect the
heater from the mains and from any gas-feeding device. Check the airflow to the heater
and make sure it is sufficient before trying to switch on the heater.
Never move, manipulate or clean a switched-on heater.
Only replace the gas hose with a similar hose or with a hose which is able to cope with the
used gas pressure. Refer to the local regulations. The used gas hose must be 1.5 m long.
Do not crimp or bend the gas hose.
Do not use a gas hose to canalize hot air.
Disconnect the heater from the mains, cut the gas supply, disconnect the gas hose and
close the gas intake inside the heater if it will not be used for a longer period.
It is recommended to leave the annual maintenance of the heater to a specialized
technician.
