Before igniting the heater, always check the fuel indicator
F
to see whether the
removable tank needs filling up.
Always ignite the heater with the ignition mechanism. Never use matches or a
cigarette lighter.
Follow the procedure below:
1 Turn the knurled wick adjustment knob
2
clockwise to its stop (Fig. K).
2 Push in the ignition button
C
(Fig. L), but do not apply too much force.
Release the ignition button as soon as a flame is visible in the combustion
chamber
D
.
After having ignited the heater, always check whether the combustion
chamber
D
is level, by sliding it slightly to the left and the right by its handle
E
(Fig. F). This should be a smooth movement. If the combustion chamber is not
level, this will cause smoke and soot to develop.
D
BURNING OF THE HEATER
After you have ignited the heater, it will take 10 to 15 minutes before you can check
whether the heater is burning well. Too high a flame may cause smoke and soot,
whereas too low a flame causes smells. Fig. Q shows the minimum and maximum
permissible burning heights of the flame. The flame can be slightly adjusted with
the knurled wick adjustment knob
B
(Fig. M).
Burning that is too low may be caused by:
E
insufficient fuel (fill the tank)
E
poor fuel quality (contact your dealer)
E
insufficient ventilation (put window or door ajar)
E
wastage of the wick (contact your dealer or replace the wick,
refer to section L
E
