Note
• It is recommended to replace the gas hose after
3 or 4 years (see date shown on hose). The gas
hose becomes porous after a time. Also check
the hose for leaks on a yearly basis at least. Even
if the expiration date has not been expired yet,
you must check the condition of the hose always.
In case of damage/cracks you have to replace
the hose immediately. Please make sure that you
comply with all local health and safety regula-
tions (e.g. fire code).
Storage
There is no limitation on the storage of the appli-
ance indoors provided that the cylinder is removed
from the appliance. Between uses:
• Turn control knob OFF
• Turn gas cylinder OFF
Store heater upright in an area sheltered from di-
rect contact with inclement weather (such as rain,
sleet, hail, snow, dust and debris).
If desired, cover to protect exterior surfaces and to
prevent build up in air passages.
Note: Wait until heater is cool before covering.
Troubleshooting
IF THE PROBLEM IS:
Pilot won't light
Pilot won't stay lit
Burner won't light
AND THIS CONDITION EXISTS:
Cylinder valve is closed
Blockage in orifice or pilot tube
Air in the gas line
Low gas pressure
Igniter fails
Dirt build up around pilot
Connection between gas valve and pilot
assembly is loose
Bad thermocouple
Gas pressure is low
Blockage in orifice
Control knob is not in "ON" position
• Pressure regulators have a default maximum life
span as indicated by the date printed on the regu-
lator, but please note that local health and safety
regulations may overrule this.
• Only replace the pressure regulator with one pro-
vided by the manufacturer.
• Consult the local regulations, these may differ.
• Always store gas bottles upright, in use as well
as when empty.
During periods of extended inactivity or when
transporting:
• Turn control knob OFF.
• Disconnect gas cylinder and move to a secure,
well ventilated location outdoors. DO NOT store
in a location that will exceed 50°C.
Store heater upright in an area sheltered from di-
rect contact with inclement weather (such as rain,
sleet, hail, snow, dust and debris).
If desired, cover heater to protect exterior surfaces
and to prevent build up in air passages.
Note: Wait until heater is cool before covering
THEN DO THIS:
Open valve
Clean or replace orifice or pilot tube
Open gas line and bleed it (pressing control knob in) for
not more than 1-2 minutes or until you smell gas
Gas cylinder low or empty
Use match to light pilot, and obtain new igniter and re-
place. ( See below pictures)
Clean dirt from around pilot
Tighten connection and perform leak test
Replace thermocouple
Replace gas cylinder
Clear blockage
Turn control knob to "ON" position
