it should be removed or altered.
This appliance needs testing for leak before initial use and whenever the cylinder has been
reconnected after filled. NEVER USE A NAKED FLAMETO TEST FOR POSSIBLE LEAKS.
Always close the gas cylinder valve whenever the heater is not in use
Installation
Your heater is a safe and efficient form of heating when used exactly according to these
instructions.
Read and fully understand these instructions before operating your heater. If you do not
understand the instructions, please contact your dealer for advice before using the heater.
A suitable gas cylinder should be purchased for this heater. The cylinder will require purging the
first time to ensure the correct operation of the heater. This should be carried out by the gas
filling station. Your cylinder should be checked for safe operation each time when it is filled by
an authorized filling station.
Heater set-up
1. After the heater has been removed from its package, remove the back panel from inside the
back cavity.
2. Place the filled gas cylinder into the back of the heater with the valve outlet facing outwards.
3. Screw the correct regulator onto the outlet of the gas cylinder valve clockwise. Turn by hand
only. Do not use a spanner. Screw on until the nut is fully home.
4. IMPORTANT TEST for leaks:
This must be carried out in a well-ventilated area, free from any open flames or other sources
of ignition. With the regulator connected to the cylinder, turn on the gas cylinder valve 1 and
1/2 turns anti-clockwise.
Brush all hose connections, pipe connections to the gas valve, regulator connection to the
cylinder and gas cylinder valve with a 50: 50 solution of detergent and water. A stream of
bubbles forming is an indication of a leak. If a leak is found, turn off the cylinder valve (clockwise),
disconnect the regulator from the gas cylinder and remove the gas cylinder to a cool, outdoor
well-ventilated area. Contact your dealer or gas supplier for assistance.
DO NOT USE THE HEATER IF A LEAK IS FOUND.
DO NOT USE A NAKED FLAME FOR LEAK TESTING.
DO NOT OPERATE ANY ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT IN THE PRESENCEOF A GAS LEAK.
5. After leak-testing is satisfactorily carried out, fit the rear panel onto the heater. It may be
necessary to twist the cylinder slightly to allow the regulator and hose to fit inside the back
panel without kinking the hose.
Note: The heater incorporates several safety devices that will shut down the heater in unsafe
conditions. In case of accidental flame failure, the gas heater will shut down automatically.
These con-devices will turn off the heater if it is tipped over, if this activate, set the heater
upright, check for obvious damage and again wait 5-10 minutes before attempting to tore-light
the heater. This device may also operate if the heater is knocked against or bumped.
