• Use high-quality automobile wax to help maintain the appearance of your
heater. Apply to exterior surfaces from the pole down. Do not apply to
emitter screen or reflectors.
• Between uses, the heater should be stored with the control knob in the
OFF position and the LP source disconnected.
• The heater should be stored in an upright position in a sheltered area away
from direct contact with inclement weather (such as rain, sleet, hail, snow,
dust and debris).
• If desired, cover the heater to protect the exterior surfaces and help
prevent build-up in air passages. NOTE: Wait until the heater has
completely cooled to the the touch before covering.

and associated components.
