WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW IN ADVANCE
ALWAYS MAKE SURE THAT THERE IS SUFFICIENT VENTILATION
This heater is equipped with an air quality control system . When there is insuffi-
cient ventilation in the room or when the heater is being used in a room which is
too small, the heater will shut off automatically. For comfortable and safe heating
ensure that there is sufficient ventilation.
Note: To avoid unexpected shut off, we recommend to put a door or window ajar
when the heater is operating.
For each model the minimum size of space is specified in which you can use the
heater safely, without additional ventilation (refer to Section K). If a particular
room is smaller than the specified space, always leave a window or door slightly
ajar (± 2.5 cm). We also recommend doing this in highly insulated or draught-free
rooms and/or at altitudes above 1,500 metres. Do not use your heater in cellars or
other underground areas.
SAFE TOP
The heater is supplied with a safe top. This application decreases the temperature
of the top plate. In this way, the risk of harmful accidents at accidentally touching
the top plate is considerably decreased. However, be aware that the top plate still
becomes hot.
Avoid any contact with the top plate and grille.
THE RIGHT FUEL
Only use Class C1 paraffin fuel in accordance with BS2869 Part two, or equivalent.
Your heater has been designed for use with high-quality water-free pure paraffin
oil, such as Zibro Extra or Zibro Kristal. Only fuels of this kind will ensure clean and
proper burning. Lower quality fuel may result in:
excessive tar deposits on the glass fibre wick
incomplete burning
reduced heater lifetime
smoke and/or smells
deposits on the grid or mantle
Using the right fuel is therefore essential for safe, efficient, and comfortable use
of your heater.
Always refer to your local dealer for the right fuel for your heater.
