Starting the Gas Heater
After carefully unpacking the gas heater:
•
Remove the door at the back of the gas heater.
•
Connect the flexible hose to the gas input of the gas heater and to the pressure regulator.
Fix with the hose clamps and make sure the connections are airtight. Do not crimp the gas
hose.
•
Install the gas cylinder inside the gas heater and connect to the pressure regulator. Open
the pressure regulator and check for gas leaks by brushing soapy water on all the fittings
and connections of the gas circuit.
•
Re-install the door at the back of the gas heater.
For their safety, keep children away from all packaging such as cardboard boxes, foams, plastic
bags, etc.
Only install and replace the gas cylinder in a room void of flammable objects and substances.
This gas heater features a safety mechanism which will switch off the device in case of
insufficient ventilation or if the concentration of carbon dioxide (CO
2
) exceeds the legally-
stipulated maximum values.
It is normal if this safety mechanism is triggered in small and closed rooms.
If the pilot light dies out, sufficiently ventilate the room and wait a few minutes prior to
switching on the gas heater.

How to Switch On the Gas Heater
Prior to using the gas heater for the first time or after the gas heater has been stored for a
long time, we recommend, with the pressure regulator closed, repeatedly pressing the buttons
a few times.
The gas heater can be set to three heat positions: the maximum, the medium and the
minimum position. The ignition is generated by an electric spark.
Open the gas flow by turning the lever of the pressure regulator toward the marking.
Ignition of the Gas Heater
•
Fully press the button and turn in an anticlockwise direction.
•
Hold the button pressed for 20 seconds. Repeat this operation until the pilot light is lit. The
pilot light is located on the lower part of the protection grid (where the ignition sparks are
generated). Keep the button pressed for another 10 seconds after the pilot light is lit.
Repeat the steps above if the pilot light dies out when releasing the button.
