ELECTRIC HEATING (GH3062RF HYBRID)
The electric heating system is designed for infrared radiation technology. Even if used in an unsealed large room the efficiency will be perfect.
There is a switch to select Gas or Electric heating. The heater has two heating elements, which can be used separately or together depending
on the need.
Operation:
a. Make sure that the plug is normally earthed. Put the plug into the socket.
b. Press switch “Fan” to get ready to use the heater and to start the fan.
c. Press switch “I” to start electric heating with half effect.
d. Press the other switch “I” to start electric heating with maximum effect if needed.
e. Turn OFF all switches after use. Remove the plug from the socket.
* turn thermostat to “High”: electric heater will work to high room temperature
* turn thermostat to “Low”: electric heater will switch off at lowest room temperature and will restart automatically when this lowest room
temperature is undercut
SAFETY TIPS 2
• Always place the heater facing the center of the room.
• Do never move the heater when it is burning.
• Prevent people, especially young children and elderly people from touching very hot surfaces.
• Never dry clothes at the top of the metal guard grill
• Keep all flammable materials at least one meter away from the heater.
• Never use a gas heater in a bathroom, bedroom. mobile home, high rise buildings or caravan. Toxic gases may cause serious health problems
in these situations.
• Never use or store solvents and pressure pack cans near a gas heater, even if the heater is turned off.
• Never dispose of rubbish such as cigarette butts in a gas fire -this can affect combustion and produce dangerous pollutants.
• Make sure rooms containing gas heater are well ventilated.
• Keep areas around the heater free of papers, trash, and any other combustible items
• Place the heater on a level, hard, nonflammable surface; do not place on rugs, carpets or socket, near bedding or drapes, or on tables or
countertops.
• Turn the heater off if you leave the area, and never leave a heater on while sleeping or if you leave home.
• Always use specified or standard wire, plug and socket, always protect them from moisture or water.
• Always turn off gas valve and remove the plug after use.
• Always make sure that you actually see the appliance when you want to switch it on. Never use things like a timer, programmer or any other
device (including Internet apps) that switches on the appliance automatically as this may cause fire!
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Before cleaning, turn the gas heater OFF, disconnect the power cord and wait until it has cooled down completely. To clean the outside of the
heater, use a soft cloth dampened with water and liquid detergent. Never use scouring pads or abrasive products. Do not use water, inflamma-
ble or abrasive cleaners.
• Regularly inspect the ODS. If there is any dust or lint, remove it without damaging the burner or tubing.
• Check the condition of the flexible rubber hose frequently. Also check the condition of the gasket seal on the pressure regulator every time
the gas container is changed.
• Take care not to hit or damage the fragile surface of the burner, the fittings and gas hoses, the regulator and all other components of the
gas circuit.
• It is recommended that the gas heater be inspected once a year by a professional.
• Please follow the storage instructions when the gas heater is not to be used for an extensive period.
END OF LIFE AND DISPOSAL INSTRUCTIONS
• Disconnect the gas container from the gas heater.
• Store the gas container in a well-ventilated room. Position it far away from inflammable, explosive or hot materials and preferably not in the
home. In addition it should never be stored in the basement or attic.
• The gas heater should be stored in a dry place and should be protected against dust (preferably in the original packaging).
• If it is decided that the gas heater is not to be used any more, it is recommended that it be disconnected from the gas container. Also cut the
rubber hose. If children play with the heater, make sure that dangerous parts are removed. Never dispose of non-biodegradable products
in the environment, but dispose of them in accordance with current national legislation. At the end of its lifetime, the product must not be
disposed of as urban waste. It must be taken to a special local authority differentiated waste collection center or to a dealer providing
this service. Disposing of a household appliance separately avoids possible negative consequences for the environment and health deriv-
ing from inappropriate disposal and enables the constituent materials to be recovered in order to make significant savings in energy and
resources. As a reminder of the need to dispose of household appliances separately, the product is marked with an image of a crossed-out
wheeled dustbin.

• Always place the heater on a flat and stable surface. Never install or use the heater in a bathroom or bedroom, in the basement, on the
upper floors of a building or in leisure accommodations;
• Never position the gas heater too close to other sources of heat (a distance of at least 1 metre is required between the gas heater and other
heating sources) or inflammable or explosive materials. During operation, the gas heater should not face objects that can be damaged or
burned;
• Position the heater so that the heat is directed towards the center of the room and towards an open space. In addition, the front, radiant
part must be at least 2.0 meter away from any inflammable materials, i.e. curtains or sofas;
• Never operate the gas heater when the gas container is outside the compartment.
• Only replace gas cylinder in a flame free environment.
• Before connecting the gascontainer to the device
o Check and clean the filter of the regulator
o Release a little bit of gas (outdoors) from the gascontainer. This will clear present dirt particles to prevent them from entering the pressure
regulator or device.
Problem:
No flame/no ignition in winter (temp. <7 °C)
Solution:
Check whether butane or propane is being used: butane will burn ever more poorly as the temperature drops below 7 °C because it then turns
into liquid. With LPG (= propane/butane mixture), it will often help to give the gas cylinder a shake.
Use only a correct low pressure regulator. Outlet pressure details: see rating label. Do not move the appliance when operating, shocks and
bumps may activate the safety device. Do not twist the flexible tubing or hose.
USE
The knobs for turning the gas heater ON are located on the upper part of the heater:
• Open the gas container (follow the user instructions provided with the low-pressure regulator).
• Press down the ignitor button for 10-20 seconds
• After 10-20 seconds: turn button 90 degrees anti clockwise to start ignition
• Keep the button pushed down
• When the flame is stable for 20-40 seconds: turn the knob to higher capacity if necessary.
o If flame is extinguished: go back to step 1 and 2. But press down button for 30-40 seconds before turning 90 degrees
o Release knob until flame is stable for 20-30 seconds
• Never push down the ignitor button for more than 40 seconds
If the heater does not want to ignite:
Check whether gas heater is full and give the gas cylinder a good shake (do not turn up side down!)
If sure that gas heater is full: Take the heater, your regulator and your gas cylinder to outside.
• Check and clean the filter of the regulator – remove all dirt and particles
• Release a little bit of gas (outdoors!) from the gas container. This will clear present dirt particles to prevent them from entering the pressure
regulator or device.
NEVER move the heater when it is hot and/or in operation!
To turn OFF the heater:
1.
Turn the knob to position 0
2.
Close the gas cylinder valve
3.
Check that all flames are extinguished
GAS LEAKS
If you think there may be a gas leak, please follow this procedure:
• Close the gas container valve. (follow the user instructions for the regulator);
• Extinguish all open flames, for instance stoves;
• Open windows in order to increase airflow circulation;
• Turn off electrical devices, for instance lamps;
• Prepare a bucket of soapy water;
• Open the gas container (follow the user instructions for the regulator);
• Brush the soapy water on all fittings and connections of the gas circuit;
• If there is a gas leak, bubbles will rise up from the location of the leak;
• If a leak is found, close the gas container (follow the user instructions for the regulator).
• Tighten the fitting and the metal rings of the connection;
• Open the gas container (follow the user instructions for the regulator) and repeat the procedure again.
If there is still a gas leak contact a professional and qualified engineer for help.
