jerrycan. Make sure that it is in a higher position than the removable tank
(Fig. H). Insert the ribbed hose into the opening of the removable tank.
4 Lock the valve on top of the pump (turn clockwise).
5 Squeeze the pump a few times, until fuel starts flowing into the removable
tank. As soon as this happens, there is no need to press any longer.
Check the removable tank fuel gauge µ while filling the tank (Fig. I). Stop

filling by loosening the valve on top of the pump (turn anti-clock-wise), once
the gauge indicates that the tank is full. Never overfill the tank, especially not
when the fuel is very cold (fuel expands when it heats up).
7 Let the remaining fuel in the pump flow back into the jerrycan and carefully
remove the pump. Carefully screw the fuel cap back on the tank. Clean
off any spilled fuel.
8 Check whether the fuel cap is straight and tightened properly. Reinstall the
removable tank in the heater (cap down). Close the lid.

IGNITING THE HEATER
A new heater may give off some smells for a short while, when it is used for the
first time. You should therefore provide extra ventilation or ignite the heater outs-
ide the living room.
When you use the heater for the first time, first put the filled removable tank into
place, and then wait approximately 30 minutes before you ignite the heater. This
allows the glass fibre wick to soak up the fuel. Follow the same procedure when you
have completely burnt up all fuel from the tank, and after the glass fibre wick has
been replaced.
Before igniting the heater, always check the fuel indicator ² to see whether the
removable tank needs filling up.
Always ignite the heater with the ignition coil ¸. Never use matches or a cigarette
lighter.
Follow the procedure below:
1 Turn the knurled wick adjustment knob
apply more pressure you may turn it slightly further; however, it will automatically
return to the startposition. When you have set the wick to its highest position,
this action will automatically activate the safety device.
Push in the ignition button » (Fig. K), but do not apply too much force.
2
Release the ignition button as soon as a flame is visible in the combustion
chamber ¿.
If the heater has been used only a few times and the wick adjustment knob is not
locked, first turn the wick adjustment knob (Fig. L) completely left, before putting the
wick in the highest position for ignition (Section C).
