10. MAINTENANCE AND SERVICING INSTRUCTIONS
There is very little maintenance required on this appliance. Important points to
remember are:
Always check that the regulator seal is undamaged when changing the gas
cylinder.
Always check that the hose is in good condition before using and that it is
securely clamped on to the appliance and the regulator.
It is recommended that the hose be replaced every two years whether it has
been used or not. When replacing the hose, make sure that it is with a hose
that complies with SABS 1156-2 or BS 3212. These are available mainly
from Hardware Stores and from the manufacturer and are orange in colour.
Remember when replacing the hose to replace the hose clamps at the same
time.
With the exception of the hose and the regulator, there are no user fitted
parts available for this heater. Should the heater not be functioning properly,
an authorized service agent must check it, and if replacement parts are
required, they will ensure that the correct parts are supplied and fitted
correctly.
It is recommended to have your heater checked at your local hardware store
at the beginning of every season.
WARNING
Wipe the exterior of the heater with a soft cloth moistened with a mild
detergent.
Do not use metal or furniture polish on the heater.
Only clean the heater when it is cold and not in use.
