DISCLAIMERS GAS HEATERS

Read this user manual carefully before using the appliance and keep it for future reference. Install this device only when it complies with local/national legislation, ordinances and standards. This product is intended to be used as a heater in residential houses and is only suitable for use in dry locations, in normal household conditions, indoors in living room, kitchen and garage. Regardless of the model, you must always make sure that the heater is used in a room large enough to enable the heater to be used safely without extra ventilation. If the room is smaller than required, you must always open a door or window slightly (ensuring an opening of approx. 2.5 cm). It is important that every room where the heater is used has sufficient air intake and efficient air outflow (both openings must have a minimum cross-section of 50 cm2). No modifications to the safety system are allowed, as that will invalidate the guarantee that the air probe will work properly. Consult your dealer in case of doubt. This gas heater requires a hose and a regulator. In case of doubt ask for information from your gas supplier. This heater is constructed in conformity with the EN449:2002+A1:2007 standard and the applicable Gas Appliance Regulation (EU) 2016/426 (GAR).

ASSEMBLING THE GAS HEATER

Before connecting the low-pressure regulator, please follow the instructions provided with the low-pressure regulator. The manufacturer is not responsible for any harm or damage if attention is not paid to the points described above. Do not twist the flexible tubing or the hose. Before connecting the gas container to the device

• Check and clean the filter of the regulator
• 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.

Each time when gas cylinder or gas tube is connected: always do a leakage test with soapy water – see chapter ‘gas leaks’.
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

1. Turn the regulation knob into position.
2. Release the knob and turn it to the position corresponding with the desired amount of heat.
3. To turn off the device, close the gas container valve.

GAS LEAKS

1. Close the gas container valve.
2. Open windows.
3. Prepare a bucket of soapy water.
4. Open the gas container.
5. Brush the soapy water on all fittings and connections of the gas circuit.
6. If there is a gas leak, bubbles will rise up from the location of the leak.
7. If a leak is found, close the gas container.
8. Tighten the fitting and the metal rings of the connection.
9. Open the gas container and repeat the procedure again.

MAINTENANCE

1. Switch off the gas heater and allow it to cool down for at least 10 minutes before cleaning it.
2. Keep the gas heater clean. Remove any dust and other dirt with a damp cloth. Use regular cleaning products for stubborn stains. Clean the heater thoroughly once a year.
3. inspect it each time before using it. Use a mixture of soapy water and water to check the connections for leaks. If any bubbles occur, there is a leak. It should be repaired immediately.
4. Check the hose / regulator connection each time before using it. If the horse shows any sign of wear and tear or has any cracks, it should be replaced immediately.
5. The heater should be inspected by a certified service station once a year.

The heater should not be installed and/or used:

• in rooms that are used as a bathroom, shower room or bedroom, or in areas such as a cellar or dusty, highly flammable rooms.
• in rooms with a surface area of less than 84 cubic metres when used in a house.
• in high rise flats.

It is very important that in the rooms where the heater is located and is also used, at least as much air supply is guaranteed as each gas heater requires. Sufficient air supply means that there is an opening of at least 100 cm². Such an opening can be created, for instance, between door and floor or at the window. Use only a correct low-pressure regulator according to EN16129. 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. If you fail to consult and/or follow up the rules, instructions and explanation, the warranty will no longer be valid, and the manufacturer will no longer deal with any damage to the appliance and/or your environment under the warranty. The use of this product and the elements required for that purpose is entirely at the end user’s own risk.
