• Make sure there is no flame. Only when no flame: remove the plug or seal
cap from the cylinder valve.
• Check for the presence and good state of the gasket before connecting the
regulator to the new cylinder
• Check that the regulator seal is correctly fitted and able to fulfil its function.
• Perform leak test using soapy water solution.
W ARNING: only change the gas cylinder in a amply ventilated area, away
from any ignition source (candle, cigarettes, other flame producing applianc-
es, ...).

STORAGE

• Make sure the heater is in off position
• Always close the valve of the gas cylinder after use or in case of a distur-
bance.
• Disconnect the gas container from the gas heater.
• Store the gas container in a well-ventilated room. Position it far away from
inflammable, explosive or hot materials and preferably not in the home. In
addition it should never be stored in the basement or attic.
• Cylinder must be stored out of the reach of children.
• Disconnected cylinder must have threaded valve plugs tightly installed and
must not be stored in garage or any other enclosed area. Only store in venti-
lated area!
• Storage of heater indoors is permissible only if the cylinder is disconnected
and removed from the heater.
• Check the tightness of the connections of the gas line supply (gas cylinder
valve / regulator, regulator/hose, hose/appliance inlet). If you suspect a dam-
age, have it changed by your gas dealer.
• Never store liquid gas cylinder in a sub-terrain, or at places without adequate
air ventilation.

CLEANING AND CARE

Warning: Make sure the heaer is in off position and is cool!
Warning: Do not clean heater with cleaners that are combustible or corrosive.
• Wipe off powder coated surfaces with soft, moist rag and soap water.
• Remove debris, spider and insect nests from ventilation opening of the cylin-
der enclosure, control compartment, burner and circulation air passageways
of the heater with heavy duty pipe cleaner or compressed air to keep appli-
ance clean and safe for use.
• Never clear ports or other openings with toothPic.ks or other article that will
break and block the ports.
• If carbon deposits develop, remove the reflector and flame screen and clean
them with soap water.
• Do not paint the flame screen, control panel or reflector.
• Cover the burner unit with the optional supplied protective cover when the
heater is not in use. Wait until the heater is cool before covering.
• In a salt-air environment, such as near an ocean, corrosion occurs more
quickly than normal. Check frequently for corroded areas and repair them
promptly.
