LIGHTING THE PATIO HEATER

• Check all connections prior to each use.

• Turn on the gas supply at the source.

• Press and turn the control dial anti-clockwise to the LOW (small flame) marking. You will hear a click and this will light the burner.

• Keep the control dial depressed for up to 30 seconds then release the control dial.

• If the gas fails to ignite, press and turn the dial clockwise to OFF before repeating the lighting steps.

• Turn the dial further anticlockwise to the LOW position.

• Adjust the heat by turning the dial from the LOW position to the HIGH position as required.

Note: it is possible to light the appliance using a long match by lighting the burner through the ignition hole in the emitter screen.
RE-LIGHTING

LEAK TESTING

NEVER USE A NAKED FLAME TO CHECK FOR LEAKS. NEVER LEAK TEST WHILE SMOKING.
The gas connections on this appliance are leak tested at the factory prior to shipment. This appliance needs to be periodically checked for leaks and an immediate check is required if the smell of gas is detected.

• Make a soap solution using 1 part of liquid washing up liquid to 3 parts water. The soap solution can be applied with a soap bottle, brush, or rag to the leak-tested points shown in the figure above.
• The valve of the gas cylinder should be in the OFF position. Once the soapy solution is applied to the gas connections, the valve of the gas cylinder needs to be turned to the ON position.
• Soap bubbles will begin to form in the soapy solution if a leak is present.
• In case of a leak, turn off the gas supply. Tighten any leaking fittings, then turn the gas supply on and recheck.

GAS REQUIREMENTS

• The regulator and hose assembly used must conform to local safety requirements.
• Never use a gas cylinder with a damaged body, valve, collar, or foot ring. A dented or rusty gas tank may be hazardous and should be checked by a gas supplier.
• Never connect this appliance to an unregulated gas source.
• When the appliance is not in use, turn the gas cylinder OFF, before disconnecting it.
• Always perform a leak test on gas connections whenever a cylinder is connected. If bubbles form in the leak test
  solution, do not use it. Never use a flame to test for leaks.

CONNECTING TO A GAS CYLINDER

• Use a gas cylinder no larger than 31.8cm diameter x 58cm. Please refer to your gas supplier for a suitable gas cylinder.
• Refer to your gas supplier for instructions on the use of your gas cylinder. · Only change gas cylinders outdoors or in a well-ventilated area away from naked flames and any other source of ignition.
• The gas cylinder must always be used in an upright position.
• Close the heater control dial by turning fully clockwise.
• Close the gas cylinder tap and then attach the regulator onto the gas cylinder.
• Tighten all connections firmly and with a spanner where appropriate. The cylinder should be located on the cylinder base.
• Check for leaks at all joints using soapy water. If a leak is found, tighten the joint and then re-test.

MAINTENANCE

To enjoy years of outstanding performance from your heater, 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 heater does NOT reach the desired temperature.
• The heater’s glow is excessively uneven.
• The heater makes popping noises.
• Spiders and insects can nest in burner or orifices.
• This dangerous condition can damage the heater 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 burner with warm soapy water.
  Note: In environments with high salt content (such as near the sea), corrosion occurs more quickly than normal. Frequently check the corroded areas and repair them.
