To the User:
Read the following instructions carefully.
Observe all warnings.
In the unlikely event of leaks in the gas system, or if there is a smell of gas:
- Extinguish all naked flames
- Do not operate any electrical switches
- Turn off all gas appliances
- Open windows and doors for ventilation
- Do not smoke
- Shut off gas connection
Ensure that the system is thoroughly checked by a Whale® Approved Service Centre / Technician.
The Space Heater must not be operated in the following situations:
• When refuelling the vehicle or refuelling the vehicle towing the caravan or refuelling any other
appliances.
• When the vehicle in which the Space Heater is installed is in motion, unless a Vehicle In Motion kit is
fitted. Please refer to Section 3 Application in this document.
• When the vehicle in which the Space Heater is installed is in a confined space (such as a garage).
This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental
capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning
use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do
not play with the appliance.
Ensure that a minimum of one of the hot air outlet vents is permanently open.
When using gas, the combustion air inlet flue and outlet openings for the products of combustion (exhaust flue) must
never be obstructed. They must be checked regularly and if necessary cleaned by the user (e.g. snow or fallen
leaves must be removed from the combustion air inlet and exhaust flue).
Where the open end of the exhaust flue terminates, three sides of the underfloor space must be kept open and not
obstructed, and must not contain through-floor ventilation openings.
The Space Heater, its gas supply and flues for the products of combustion must be inspected in accordance with
national regulations or if these do not exist, the Space Heater manufacturer's recommendations. Whale advises that
this is carried out at least annually.
The Whale® Space Heater must be checked periodically by a Whale® Approved Service Centre / Technician, or
competent person, at least annually. This must be completed according to the practice in the country where it is used
and according to the Whale® instructions. Whale recommend annual testing of gas soundness and combustion by an
accredited LPG gas engineer. The appliance contains ESD sensitive components and therefore should only be
opened by a Whale® Approved Service Centre / Technician (contact Whale® Support).
When using a non Whale Control Panel or operating switches provided by the installer or the vehicle manufacturer,
they are responsible for providing user instructions and identification of symbols on the Control Panel.
The inlet vents of the Space Heater must never be blocked and at least one hot air outlet vent must be permanently
open.
