Helpful Hints; Storage; Maintenance; Battery Replacement - Coleman HWOD 2302-A Série Mode D'emploi

Helpful Hints

• There's a hook-&-loop strap on the back of the shower, you may tie the shower onto an overhead object (available on model 2302-A only).
• If you do not intend to use the water heater for a period of time (3 days or longer), it is strongly recommended to turn the main power switch to 'OFF'. This
will prolong the charge of your battery (applicable to model 2302-A only).
• Never place the shower 6.5 feet (2 m) above the heater, otherwise the water flow may drop to a warning level triggering the shut-off mechanism.
• Never twist or bend hoses that the water runs through, which will lead to a drop of water flow and trigger the shut-off mechanism.
• The heater will typically make 40 gallons (151 L) of warm or hot water on one full battery charge and a 16.4 oz. (464 g) cylinder of propane. Make sure to pack
sufficient fuel for the duration of your outing.
• Thanks to the integrated mechanical and electrical over-temperature shut-off devices, the burner will be shut off immediately when the water temperature
reaches 122°F at the water outlet on the heater. Meanwhile the pump will continue to pump for 30 seconds, to cool down the heater.
• The water heater is ideal for many outdoor cleaning tasks. Coleman supports the Leave No Trace Principles that encourage minimal impact to the
environment while camping. You'll find that less soap is necessary with warm water than with cool or cold water, so use small amounts of biodegradable
soap. Please dispose of your gray water responsibly. Wash yourself or dishes 200 feet (61 m) away from streams or lakes to avoid soap run-off finding its way
to a natural water source. Contact your campground or park to learn about their specific gray water disposal policy.
• Continuous operation of water heater at warm setting for 20 minutes may cause the propane cylinder to freeze up. Let the cylinder thaw or replace with a
fresh propane cylinder.

Storage

• Remove propane cylinder from heater after use and before transporting or storing the heater. Always store propane outdoors.
• Drain water from hoses and unit before storing: Disconnect hoses and lean product toward the hose connection side. Move the unit left to right while leaning
until water drainage stops.
• Recharge the battery before storing. Turn off the main power switch (applicable to model 2302-A only).
• For long term storage, clean and dry the heater and store indoors in a clean and dry location.
• Coleman's padded carry case is ideal for storing and transporting.

Maintenance

• Clean water route at least once a year or whenever a white build up
appears in the hose. Refer to Cleaning Instructions on page 7 of this
manual.
• Charge battery immediately after each outing to reach optimum
performance.
• Cleaning heater exterior - Clean only when the unit is off and cool to
touch, and the gas cylinder is removed. Wipe clean with a soft cloth
damped with diswashing solution. Never use abrasives.
• Replacing battery (see illustrations on the right)- Use only a Coleman
replacement battery 2000027851 (12 Volt, 2000 mAh Li-Ion battery).
1. Remove the screw from the battery cover on the right side of your water
heater and remove the cover.
2. Pull the battery out from storage compartment and unplug the
connectors.
3. Replace the battery and connect the connectors, make sure the circular
pin and the rectangular pin on male connector are correctly aligned with the
circular hole and rectangular hole on the female connector. Replacement
batteries are available to order from Coleman.
• Replacing fuse (see illustrations on the right)- Use only a Coleman
replacement fuse 2000027844 (current rating: 5A).
Remove the screw from the fuse socket right above the battery
compartment, discard the defective fuse and replace with a new one.
• Cleaning pump screen (see illustrations on the right)-
1. Grip the nozzle at the end of the pump and rotate counter-clockwise to
screw it off.
2. Separate the nozzle and the ring cap.
3. Use your finger to push the pump screen out from the nozzle and clean
the screen.
4. Then reverse the steps to put the parts together.
• Checking flame (see illustrations on the right)-
Check flame by looking into the flame window on the front panel of the
appliance. A good flame should be blue with a yellow tip. Some yellow tips
on flames up to 1 inch in length are acceptable as long as no carbon or
soot deposits appear.
