Storage of an appliance indoors with the cylinder attached is only permitted if the size of the cylinder complies with AS/NZS 1596; otherwise cylinders must be stored outdoors in a well ventilated area.

The guards are fitted to this appliance to reduce the risk of fire or injury from burns and no part of it should be removed. This appliance must be protected from exposure to rain.

Prior to assembling your appliance, the following must be reviewed. Compliance with the following should result in satisfactory appliance operation. This instruction manual should be retained for future reference. The installation must conform with local codes or authority having jurisdiction.

1. The appliance is intended for heating residential and non-residential outdoor spaces. The installation must conform with New Zealand Standard 5601 “Gas Installations”.
2. Adequate clearance around air openings into the combustion chamber, clearances from combustible materials, provisions for accessibility and for combustion and ventilating air supply must be maintained at all times when the appliance is operating.
3. Proper clearance from combustible materials must be maintained at all times. The minimum clearances are as follows:

Minimum Clearance from Combustibles:

• Side: 500 mm
• Rear: 500 mm
• Ceiling: 1000 mm

Combustible materials are considered to be wood, compressed paper, plant fibres, plastic, plexiglas or other materials capable of being ignited and burned. Such materials shall be considered combustible even though flame proofed, fire-retardant treated or plastered. Additional clearance may be required for glass, painted surfaces and other materials which may be damaged by radiant or convection heat.

4. Heaters must be placed on a level and adequate footing and be readily accessible.

5. The gas manifold supply pressure must be regulated at 2.75 kPa utilising an approved regulator (supplied with heater).

6. The appliance must be inspected before each use, and at least annually by a qualified service person.

• The appliance area must be kept clear and free of combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable vapours and liquids.
• Gas orifices and burner must be kept clear of dirt and cobwebs. Flow of combustion and ventilation air through the perforated portions of the heater must not be obstructed. Cleaning with a soft brush before use and at least every six months is recommended.
• All gas connections should be checked for leaks utilising a soap solution. NEVER use a flame for this purpose.
• The flame pattern should be visually checked whenever heater is operated. If flames extend beyond surface of the guard the appliance should be turned off and should not be operated again until the unit is serviced and or repaired.
• Any cleaning agent used on the heater should be of a non-combustible and non-corrosive nature.
• The stainless steel emitter normally does not require cleaning and should NEVER be painted.

7. The hose must be protected from contact with hot or sharp surfaces both during use and while in storage. The hose assembly should be visually inspected prior to each use of the heater. If excessive abrasion or wear is evident, or the hose is cut, it must be replaced prior to operating the heater. The replacement hose assembly may be obtained from the manufacturer.
8. DO NOT use any pressure regulator or hose assembly other than those supplied with the appliance. Replacement pressure regulator and hose assembly must be those specified. Replacement parts maybe obtained from the manufacturer or your local sales representative.
9. Installation and use of this heater must conform with New Zealand Standard 5601 “Gas Installations”.
10. This heater is designed to operate with a standard 9kg LPG cylinder with Approved Cylinder Connection.
11. The valve outlet must be maintained in good condition. When the cylinder is not in use, be sure to cover it with
a dust cap. A leak test should be performed with soapy water whenever connecting a new cylinder. NEVER use a match to test for leaks.
