To light the appliance

• The pilot should be lit and the knob set to PILOT.
• Hold the knob depressed gently and turn anti-clockwise to HIGH.
• When the appliance glows lit, turn the knob clockwise from HIGH to LOW as needed.

Re-lighting

• Turn Control Knob OFF.
• Wait at least 5 minutes, to let the gas dissipate, before attempting to re-light the pilot.
• Repeat the “Lighting” steps.

To extinguish

• Hold the knob depressed & turn the knob clockwise to ‘OFF’
• Close the valve of the gas cylinder or the regulator after use.
• Close the gas bottle and allow this appliance to cool before moving the appliance.

MAINTENANCE

To enjoy years of outstanding performance from your appliance, make sure you perform the following maintenance activities on a regular basis.

• Keep exterior surfaces clean.
• Use warm soapy water for cleaning. Never use flammable or corrosive cleaning agents.
• While washing your unit, be sure to keep the area around the burner and pilot assembly dry at all times. If the gas control is exposed to water in any way, DO NOT try to use it. It must be replaced.
• Airflow must be unobstructed. Keep controls, burner, and circulation air passageways clean. Signs of possible blockage include:
• Gas odor with extreme yellow tipping of flame.
• The appliance does NOT reach the desired temperature.
• The appliance glow is excessively uneven.
• The appliance makes popping noises.
• Spiders and insects can nest in burners or orifices. This dangerous condition can damage the appliance and render it unsafe for use. Clean burner holes by using a heavy-duty pipe cleaner. Compressed air may help clear away smaller particles.
• Carbon deposits may create a fire hazard. If any carbon deposits develop, clean the dome and engine with warm soapy water.

Note: in a salt-air environment (such as near the sea), corrosion occurs more quickly than normal. Frequently check the corroded areas and repair them
promptly.

Battery replacement
Remove the impulse ignition cap from below the Ignition by turning the cap counterclockwise. Install 1 AAA battery. The negative end of the battery goes in first, then replace the impulse ignition cap by turning the cap clockwise.
