If the heater has been used only a few times and the wick adjustment knob is not
locked, first turn the wick adjustment knob (Fig. L) completely left, before putting the
wick in the highest position for ignition (Section C).
After having ignited the heater, always check whether the combustion
chamber ¿ is level, by sliding it slightly to the left and the right by its handle
(Fig. E) ´. This should be a smooth movement. If the combustion chamber is
S
not level, this will cause smoke and soot to develop.
D
THE BURNING OF THE HEATER
After you have ignited the heater, it will take 10 to 15 minutes before you can
check whether the heater is burning well. Too high a flame may cause smoke and
soot, whereas too low a flame causes smells. The page opposite the folding page
shows the minimum and maximum permissible burning heights of the flame (Fig. P).
The flame can be slightly adjusted with the flame regulator · (Fig. S).
If the flame remains low after the adjustment, the wick height must be
adjusted (refer to Section F).
Too low a flame may also be caused by:
insufficient fuel
poor fuel quality
insufficient ventilation
wastage of the wick
When there is insufficient ventilation in the room, an intermittent buzzer will be
Q
heard and the VENT lamp (Yellow) will be lit (Fig. Q) . When this signal is given,
ensure that the ventilation of the room is improved (e.g. by opening a door or
window a little more) to avoid that the heater shuts off. When the ventilation of
the room is improved, the VENT lamp and buzzer will be deactivated. When there
is still insufficient ventilation, the heater shuts off automatically. After improving
the ventilation of the room (e.g. by opening a door or window a little more), the
heater can be ignited again.
This heater is fitted with a safety system that ensures that it switches off if you
lift the exchange tank out of the heater. To switch the heater on again, put the
exchange tank back and follow the steps in chapter C.
E
SWITCHING OFF THE HEATER
