DANGER
• CARBON MONOXIDE HAZARD
• For outdoor use only. Never use inside house, or other
unventilated or enclosed areas. This heater consumes air
(oxygen). Do not use in unventilated or enclosed areas to
avoid endangering your life.
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.
Lighting:
Note: For initial start or after any cylinder change, hold control knob in for 2 minutes to purge air from
gas lines before proceeding.
Caution: Do not attempt to operate until you have read and understand all General Safety Information
in this manual and all assembly is complete and leak checks have been performed.
TO TURN ON THE HEATER
1. Turn on the valve on the gas cylinder.
2. Press and turn the control knob to HI position (anti-clockwise 90°).
3. Press and hold down the control knob, at the same time repeatedly pressing the igniter button until
the burner is ignited. Release the control knob 10 seconds after the ignition, at which time the
burner should remain alight.
4. Turn the control knob to LO and leave it there for 5 minutes or more before turning the knob to the
desired temperature setting.
5. If the burner fails to light or goes out turn the control knob to the "OFF" position. Wait at least 5
minutes to allow any gas to dissipate, and repeat steps 2 - 4.
6. If still unable to light the burner turn the control knob to the "OFF" position, turn off the valve on the
gas cylinder, disconnect and remove the gas cylinder and return the heater to the place of purchase
for a replacement.
Before Lighting:
1. Heater should be thoroughly inspected before each use, and by a qualified service person at least
annually. If relighting a hot heater, always wait at least 5 minutes.
2. Inspect the hose assembly for evidence of excessive abrasion, cuts, or wear. Suspected areas
should be leak tested. 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.
