adjusting device
with an incorporated safety pilot, a burner
with an electric igniter.
The adjusting device can be set to 3 different positions:
Max
Maximum cooling
MIN
Minimum cooling
0 off
Igniting position / burner gas supply closed
The safety pilot automatically maintains the gas supply to the burner, as long as it
remains lit. It automatically shuts off the supply if the flame goes out.
Ignition of the liquefied petroleum gas burner
Open the valve of the gas cylinder.
Press the adjusting knob and hold it in this position, then turn the knob anti-clockwise to
Max.
If the appliance has not been ignited for a long period, or if the gas cylinder has been
changed, there may be some air in the duct, so it may fail to be ignited. It is necessary to
check that the pilot is lit by looking through the orifice at the top of the appliance. If the
appliance fails to be ignited, try it again after approximate 10 seconds.
When the outside temperature is low, set the adjusting device to MIN after a sufficient
long cool-down period in MAX position.
