In addition

  • To replace the gas container, make sure that the gas container is closed (follow the user instructions provided with the low-pressure regulator). Let the gas heater cool down first and make sure that there are no open flames or other sources of heat in the area in which you are working.
  • Only change the gas container in a flame-free environment.
  • In addition, it is recommended that the gasket seals of the regulator and the flexible rubber hose be checked to ascertain their condition. If you have any doubt concerning the condition of the hose or the seals, replace them.
  • Make sure that you do not damage the connection or any other components;
  • Never turn the gas container upside down in order to make full use of the contents. This may release liquid residues left in the container that damage the  heater irreparably;
  • For disconnection or connection of the low-pressure regulator, always follow the user instructions provided with the 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.

INSTALLATION

  • Use the gas heater in well-ventilated rooms only. A minimum room size of 68m³ is recommended for living rooms and 50m³ for other rooms, but the room should never be less than 50m³. For ventilation, a surface between 12.5cm² and 25cm² is recommended.

  • The room in which the gas heater is used should have enough air circulation for normal combustion. Therefore it is recommended that the room must  draw at least 100 cm² from the outside to replace the air;

  • Always place the heater on a flat and stable surface. Never install or use the heater in a bathroom or bedroom, in the basement, on the upper floors of a  building, or in leisure accommodations;

  • Never position the gas heater too close to other sources of heat (a distance of at least 1 meter is required between the gas heater and other heating sources)  or inflammable or explosive materials. During operation, the gas heater should not face objects that can be damaged or burned;

  • Position the heater so that the heat is directed towards the center of the room and towards an open space. In addition, the front, radiant
    part must be at least 2.0 meters away from any inflammable materials, i.e. curtains or sofas;

  • Never operate the gas heater when the gas container is outside the compartment.

  • Only replace the gas cylinder in a flame-free environment.

  • 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 clearly 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 even 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 only a correct low-pressure regulator. 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.

INSTALLATION OF THE COALS

The heater is provided including artificial coals.
RISK OF SEVERE INJURY: only use the provided artificial coals. NEVER use real coals. NEVER use any other flammable or inflammable materials in the heater. Install the coals as per pic. 2.
The artificial coal pack is marked with 2 indicators (inside the circles in the pic. 3). Make sure the indicators are pointed forward, towards you.
Close the door completely after the coals are in position. Do not use the heater without the artificial coals.
