ASSEMBLING THE GAS HEATER
• Carefully remove your heater from the box and check the contents. In addition to the heater you should also have: Directions for Use for the
gas heater
• Remove all other packaging materials and check the heater for any damage. If you have any doubts concerning the heater, please contact
qualifi ed service personnel. Keep all packaging material out of the reach of young children.
• Assemble the heater as mentioned at PIC 2 to PIC 8 in the first pages of this instruction manual.
• Before connecting the low-pressure regulator, please check and read the following: The gas heater should only be powered by Propane-
Butane in a container with a maximum weight of 15kg. Connect the low-pressure regulator with a fi xed calibration of maximum 30 mbar
that complies with EN16129. The hose should be according to national standards. For correct connection, the hose should be connected using
metal bands of a suitable size. For correct connection, follow the instructions provided with the low-pressure regulator.
• Slide the two metal rings around the hose. Connect the hose to the hose union of the low-pressure regulator and to that of the tab. Close
the metal rings fi rmly with a screw, but make sure that you do not damage the fi tting or any component.
• Before connecting the low-pressure regulator to the gas container, make sure that the gas container is closed and that there are no open
fl ames (i.e. a lit oven) in the place where you are working. Connect the low-pressure regulator according to the user instructions that are
provided with the low-pressure regulator.
Check for gas leaks: see section F
• Place the gas container in its compartment. Take care that the hose is not twisted or obstructed, and that it is unable to touch any hot parts
of the heater.
• Hook the rear cylinder cover onto the compartment by inserting the two hooks into the respective holes of the cabinet.

6. Gas Cylinder
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 85m³ is recommended for living rooms and 50m³ for other rooms,
but the room should never be less than 50m³. For ventilation 2x a surface of 50cm² ventilation openings are required.
• The room in which the gas heater is used should have enough air circulation for normal combustion. Therefore it is required that the room
must be provided with a grand total of >100 cm² of all ventilation openings.
• 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 metre 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 meter 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 gas cylinder in a flame free environment.
• Before connecting the gascontainer to the device
o Check and clean the filter of the regulator
o Release a little bit of gas (outdoors) from the gascontainer. 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)
