OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
3. Within a partial enclosure which includes an
overhead cover and three side walls, as long as
30 percent or more of the horizontal periphery
of the enclosure is permanently open.
BEFORE TURNING GAS SUPPLY ON
1. Your heater was designed and approved for
outdoor use only. Do NOT use it inside a building,
garage, or any other enclosed area.
2. Make sure surrounding areas are free of
combustible materials, gasoline and other
flammable vapors or liquids.
3. Ensure that there is no obstruction to air
ventilation. Be sure all gas connections are tight
and there are no leaks.
4. Be sure the cylinder cover is clear of debris. Be
sure any component removed during assembly
or servicing is replaced and fastened prior to
starting.
BEFORE LIGHTING
1. Heater should be thoroughly inspected before
each half year use, and by a qualified service
person at least annually. If relighting a hot
heater, always wait at least 5 minutes.
2. Inspect the visible portion of the hose before
each use of the appliance. If the hose leaks, it
must be replaced prior to operation. Only use
the replacement hose assembly specified by
manufacturer.
3. The pressure regulator and hose assembly
supplied with the appliance must be used.
Replacement pressure regulators and hose
assemblies must be those specified by the
appliance manufacturer.
ASSEMBLING THE BATTERY
Before use, please purchase AAA batteries by
yourself, unscrew the black igniter springs cover
counterclockwise, put the positive pole outward
into the igniter, and screw back the black igniter
spring cover.
LIGHTING
1. Turn on the valve on the gas cylinder.
2. Press and turn the control knob to PILOT
position (anti-clockwise 90º).
3. Holding down the control knob, press the igniter
button until the main flame is ignited. Release
the control knob 10 seconds after the ignition.
4. Press lightly and turn the variable control knob
to “HI” (maximum) position and leave it there
for 5 minutes or more before turning the knob
to the desired temperature setting.
5.
If the burner flame goes out, turn off the heater
and wait at least 5 minutes or more to let the
gas dissipate before re-lighting to avoid gas
explosion.
Repeat steps 2 to 4.
Note: Improper operation can cause injury or
property damage. If pilot fails to remain lit, all valves
should be closed and you should wait for at least 5
minutes before attempting to light it again. If you
experience any ignition problem, please consult
“Troubleshooting”.
CAUTION:
Avoid inhaling fumes emitted from the
heater’s first use. Smoke and odor from the
burning of oils used in manufacturing will
appear. Both smoke and odor will dissipate
after approximately 30 minutes. The heater
should NOT produce thick black smoke.
