Note: Never replenish fuel if the heater is on or is still hot. Always wait until the
heater has cooled down before topping up the fuel.
Never fill up the fuel in an enclosed area; always do it outdoors.
Do not overfill the heater and remove any spilt fuel immediately and carefully, before
using the heater.
Starting the heater:
Before use, check the device and the
electrical cable, plug and socket for
any damage or wear and tear and do
not use if you discover any problems.
The electricity network to which the
heater is connected must be equipped
with an earth leakage circuit breaker
(30 mA) and the socket must be
earthed. Repairs to the electrical
system must always be carried out by
a qualified electrician!
Before use, always check that the
socket is of the correct voltage, is
earthed, has an adequate fuse and
forms part of a mains network with an
earth leakage circuit breaker.
If you have to use an extension cable, make sure that the cable is of a suitable
width which is appropriate for the voltage and amperage.
Make sure the ON/OFF-switch is on 'OFF'-position.
Now insert the plug into an appropriate and earthed socket.
Set the thermostat to the desired setting (Min. 5ºC – max. 45ºC).
Press the ON/OFF switch to ON. The light and the display will come on and the
heater will start.
Important: Ignite the heater for the first time outdoors and then let it run for at least
10 minutes. Oil and similar substances used during the manufacturing process will be
burnt off and may produce toxic gases.
The electro-magnetic pump will make a strange noise for the first 10 seconds, if you
use the heater for the first time or if the fuel tank has been completely empty. This is
caused by the normal air exhaust process of the pump. Do not operate the pump
without fuel, because this affects the lifespan of the heater!
If the heater won't start, the thermostat regulator may be set too low. Turn the
thermostat button up and try again. If it still doesn't start, set the switch to OFF and
then switch back to ON.
Note: the heater's most important electrical components are protected by a fuse. If
the display and the light fail to come on even though there is power to the heater,
check the fuse before anything else.
