J
MAINTENANCE
Your heater needs hardly any maintenance. It is, however, important that you
remove dust and stains in time with a damp cloth, because otherwise these may
cause stains that are hard to remove. Under normal conditions, only three
components are subject to wear:
1. THE BATTERIES
You may replace the batteries yourself. Do not dispose of old batteries along with
the other domestic waste. Follow the locally applicable regulations regarding the
disposal of domestic chemical waste.
2. THE IGNITION COIL
The ignition coil will have a longer life, if you ignite the heater in the correct
manner. Replace the batteries in time and take care not to push in the ignition
button with too much force. If the filament is broken, the ignition coil must be
replaced.
3. THE WICK
To extend the glass fibre wick life, you must occasionally let the heater burn until
the tank is completely emptied and the heater extinguishes by itself. Do this when
you notice that the flame is weakening. The burn-out will cause some smells, so it
is recommended that you take the heater outside of the living room.
THE FUEL FILTER
Check the fuel filter regularly as well.
Remove the removable tank
from the heater and take out the fuel filter (Fig. R).
Some drops of fuel may spill from the filter; keep a cloth at hand. Turn the fuel
filter upside down and clean it from all dirt deposits by tapping it on a hard
surface.
(Never clean it with water!)
Reposition the fuel filter in the heater.
Do not remove any heater components yourself. Always contact your dealer for
repairs.
Let the heater cool down first, before you start any maintenance or service work.
