FUEL FILLING

  1. If the tank is empty (FuEL) or you want to fill the fuel, firmly connect the pump hose ‘a’ (click!) and power cable ‘b’ (1) (FUEL). ATTENTION! Do not refuel when the flame is ignited!

  2. If the fuel bottle is secured with the flame restrictor (cap on the bottles’ neck) (II) please remove it before inserting the fuel pump inlet (III) Place the fuel container stably on the floor and insert the pump hose ‘c’ (III). Press and hold the button on the pump to start refuelling (IV).FireSide-Planika-Senso-Bioethanol-Burner-Insert-13
    Once the fuel container has been emptied, replace it with a full one and start the pump again (see point 2).
    The pump will stop when the tank is full (sound + ).

  3. Disconnect the power cable ‘b’. To disconnect the pump, hold the end of the hose and firmly press the button in the place marked with a sticker ‘a’ (V).

  4. Shake the remaining fuel from the hose ‘c’ to the container and place the pump in the bag (VI).

FLAME IGNITION

The green diode indicates that the device is ready to ignite the flame.
Press and hold START for 3 seconds. Flame ignition will take 2-10 minutes ( ). The smell of ethanol vapours can be present during the ignition. The diode READY off ( ) indicates that the flame has been ignited and the device reached the working temperature

FLAME HEIGHT REGULATION
When the flame is ignited, press ECO to lower the flame (two sound signals). Press ECO again to increase the flame height (one sound signal).

FLAME EXTINGUISHING
Press STOP to extinguish the flame (sound signal + ).
You can ignite the flame again when the device is cooled – the green diode READY ( ).

FAST START
