COMMISSIONING
Make sure before commissioning that:
- the tank is properly installed
- the heater is attached so that all safety distances are taken into account and there is
no risk of fire
- all connections are attached
- there are no foreign objects or materials, which could cause a fire hazard or unpleasant
smells nearby or inside the heater or the funnel.
2.1.1
FUEL
Use winter-quality light fuel oil with the heater. In very cold weather it is appropriate to use fuel
oil for Arctic climates or kerosene, especially when using automatic start-up. It can be difficult
to find winter-quality light fuel oil in the summer. Summer-quality fuel oil can be used
temporarily.
Approx. 2% isopropanol-based gasoline engine antifreeze can be mixed with the fuel in order
to remove water from it (ethanol-based antifreeze for diesel engines
MUST NOT
be used).
If the heater remains unused in a cold cabin for the
winter
, it is recommended to run the
heater with kerosene before leaving it unused so that the fuel pump and fuel lines remain filled
with kerosene, which withstands even colder temperatures.

CONTROLS AND INDICATORS
2.1.2.1
CONTROLS
The heater is started by turning the switch to the HEAT position
The heater is started by turning the switch to the HEAT position
Automatic control with a control device or timer by turning the switch
to the AUTO position
The heater is shut off by turning the switch to the OFF position
The heating power is adjusted with the push buttons: Short pushes
decrease the power setting and long pushes increase it. The first
push of the button turns on the display, which indicates the power
setting or thermostat.
The numeric display shows the power set with the push
buttons or thermostat setting (value = 15 C + displayed
value). Functions F and L bypass the thermostat, and the
heater is run in either full power (F) or minimum power
(L).
Start-up: heating/automatic start-up
Indicators: combustion (green), battery voltage
(yellow), fault (red)
