Follow the procedure below:
1
Turn the knurled wick adjustment knob 2 clockwise to its stop (Fig. K).
2
Press the ignition button down 3 (Fig. L), but do not apply too much force.
Release the ignition button as soon as a flame is visible in the combustion
chamber D.
After having ignited the heater, always check whether the combustion
chamber D is level, by sliding it slightly to the left and the right by its handle
E (Fig. F). This should be a smooth movement. If the combustion chamber is
not level, this will cause smoke and soot to develop.
D
BURNING OF THE HEATER
After you have ignited the heater, it will take 10 to 15 minutes before you can check
whether the heater is burning well. Too high a flame may cause smoke and soot,
whereas too low a flame causes smells. Fig. Q shows the minimum and maximum
permissible burning heights of the flame. The flame can be slightly adjusted with
the knurled wick adjustment knob B (Fig. M).
Burning that is too low may be caused by:
E
insufficient fuel
E
poor fuel quality
E
insufficient ventilation
E
wastage of the wick
E
SWITCHING OFF THE HEATER
Push the OFF-button A. The flame will extinguish after a little while (Fig. N).
