Sierra Patio Heater

1.0 

Introduction 

The Sierra Cone Patio Heaters combine the benefits of radiant heat to produce overall 
comfort conditions to patios, swimming pools and similar outdoor leisure areas. The 
heaters have a manual control which combines a flame supervision safety device. 

Ignition is activated by pressing a piezo ignition which sparks to light a permanent pilot. 
The main burner is then activated by pressing in the lower button 

to indicate 

 for 

main burner. Select required main burner flame, either high or low by depressing main 
burner flame button. The cone shaped stainless steel emitter radiates warmth, when 
outside leisure activities (such as barbeques) are effected by chilly weather conditions. 

The heater is for external use only. Always ensure a minimum clearance of 1.5 meters 
both sideways and 400mm above from flammable materials.
