Lighting the Heater
WARNING!
Before starting the heater, you MUST ensure that the minimum ventilation
requirements are observed to avoid the risk of carbon monoxide poisoning.
1.
Ensuring there is sufficient gas, and that it is correctly connected and
leak free - turn the Control Knob (Fig. 3) fully clockwise so that OFF is
uppermost. To do this you must first push the knob IN .
2.
Turn on the gas supply and check
all fittings and connections for gas
leaks, by smell, and if necessary,
using a mild soap and water
solution.
NEVER
use a match to
check for gas leaks.
3.
When satisfied, turn the Control
Knob anticlockwise to the ‘Pilot’
position.
4.
Press and hold the Control Valve
IN, whilst repeatedly pressing the
Piezo Electric starter (C, Fig.2) until
the pilot light ignites. (The pilot light
may be viewed through the

NOTE: If a new gas cylinder has been
connected, it may take some time for the gas
line to be purged of air. Press the Piezo electric
button every 10-15 seconds until the pilot
ignites.
Continue to hold IN the control knob for
approx. 1 minute, or until the pilot
light remains lit when it is released.
5.
With the pilot light lit, turn the control
valve anticlockwise so that ON is
uppermost. The burner will now ignite.
NOTE:
a. The heater, has a fixed, regulated gas flow
b. In cases where long runs of gas supply lines have been installed
ahead of the appliance, it may be necessary to bleed trapped air
out of supply lines before lighting pilot. New installations generally
require bleed of supply lines. It could take several minutes before
the pilot can be lit, depending upon the length of the supply line.
