WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW IN ADVANCE

ALWAYS MAKE SURE THAT THERE IS SUFFICIENT VENTILATION

Read this user manual carefully before using the appliance and keep it for future reference. Install this device only when it complies with local/national legislation, ordinances and standards. This product is intended to be used as a heater in residential houses and is only suitable for use in dry locations, in normal household conditions, indoors in living room, kitchen and garage.

Regardless of the model, you must always make sure that the heater is used in a room large enough to enable the heater to be used safely without extra ventilation. If the room is smaller than required, you must always open a door or window slightly (ensuring an opening of approx. 2.5 cm). It is important that every room where the heater is used has sufficient air intake and efficient air outflow (both openings must have a minimum cross section of 50 cm ² ). No modifications to the safety system are allowed, as that will invalidate the guarantee that the air probe will work properly. Consult your dealer in case of doubt.

SAFETY SYSTEM

When you have turned on the heater, if the room temperature is relatively low (19 to 20°C) it may automatically switch off. The cause of this is build-up of heat in the heater. This is a logical consequence of the safety mechanism. This will not occur when using the heater at lower ambient temperatures.

SAFE TOP

The heater is supplied with a safe top. This application decreases the temperature of the top plate. In this way, the risk of harmful accidents at accidentally touching the top plate is considerably decreased. However, be aware that the top plate still becomes hot.

Avoid any contact with the top plate and grille.

Especially for France: Your heater was designed to operate exclusively on fuel for liquid fuel-operated mobile heaters in accordance with the Decrees of 08-01-1998 and 18-07-2002. The use of other fuels is forbidden. Ask your dealer or check our website for the addresses of our retailers. The liquid fuel-operated mobile heater is intended as an extra heater, and not as a continuous source of heat.

Especially for United Kingdom: Only use Class C1 paraffin fuel in accordance with BS2869; Part 2, or equivalent.

The user must comply with the following instructions for proper use:

DO NOT

• use the liquid fuel-operated mobile heater in caravans, boats, and vehicle cabins;
• use the liquid fuel-operated mobile heater in insufficiently ventilated rooms (consult the table of properties for the minimum dimensions of the room to be heated), underground rooms and / or at a height of over 1500 metres;
• modify the heater safety features.

The use of this type of heating in public rooms is subject to prior regulatory permission. Obtain proper information on this in advance.

Only the use of the correct fuel will ensure safe, efficient, and comfortable use of your heater.

This transportation cap is packed separately in the box. Only this cap ensures trouble-free transportation of the heater after use. Store it well!

THE RIGHT FUEL

Your heater has been designed for use with high-quality water-free pure paraffin oil, such as Zibro Extra or Zibro Kristal. Only fuels of this kind will ensure clean and proper burning. Lower quality fuel may result in:

▶ excessive tar deposits on the glass fibre wick
▶ incomplete burning
▶ reduced heater lifetime
▶ smoke and/or smells
▶ deposits on the grid or mantle

Using the right fuel is therefore essential for safe, efficient, and comfortable use of your heater.

Damage and/or malfunctions of the heater due to the use of other than high quality water-free pure paraffin oil is not covered by the warranty.

Always refer to your local dealer for the right fuel for your heater.

C 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 outside 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 ⑥ to see whether the removable tank needs filling up.

Always ignite the heater with the ignition coil ⑪. Never use matches or a cigarette lighter.

Follow the procedure below:

1 Turn the knurled wick adjustment knob ②clockwise to its stop (Fig. K). If you apply more pressure you may turn it slightly further; however, it will automatically return to the startposition.
2 Push in the ignition button 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 ④.

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. M) completely left, before putting the wick in the highest position for ignition (Section C).

After having ignited the heater, always check whether the combustion chamber ④ is level, by sliding it slightly to the left and the right by its handle ⑤ (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. The page opposite the folding page shows the minimum and maximum permissible burning heights of the flame (Fig. Q). The flame can be slightly adjusted with the knurled wick adjustment knob ②(Fig. M).

Burning that is too low may be caused by:

▶insufficient fuel (fill the tank)
▶poor fuel quality (contact your dealer)
▶insufficient ventilation (put window or door ajar)

▶wastage of the wick (contact your dealer or replace the wick, refer to section L

E SWITCHING OFF THE HEATER

Push the OFF-button ①. The flame will extinguish after a little while (Fig. N).

F MALFUNCTION, CAUSES AND SOLUTIONS

If any malfunctioning cannot be solved from the directions below, please contact your dealer.

THE HEATER DOES NOT IGNITE

▶The batteries are not positioned correctly in the holder. Check (Fig. G).
▶There is not enough power left in the batteries for the ignition. Replace (Fig. G).
▶You have run out of fuel from the tank or the wick has been replaced. After having refilled and replaced the removable tank, wait for 30 minutes before igniting the heater.
▶ You are pushing the ignition button ③ with too much force. Push it in less forcefully (Section C).
▶The ignition coil ⑪ is defective. Contact your dealer.

IRREGULAR FLAME AND/OR SOOT AND/OR SMELLS

The combustion chamber 4 has not been positioned correctly.
Use the handle ⑤ to put it level, until you can easily slide it slightly to the left and to the right and the chamber is level.
▶You are using fuel which is past its 'use by' date. Start every heating season with fresh fuel.
▶You are using the incorrect type of fuel. Refer to THE RIGHT FUEL (See Section 'What you need to know in advance').
▶Dust has gathered in the lower part of the heater. Contact your dealer.
▶The wick height is not correct. Contact your dealer.

THE HEATER SLOWLY EXTINGUISHES

▶The removable tank is empty. See Section B.
▶The lower reservoir is contaminated by moist. Contact your dealer.
▶The wick has hardened on the upper side. Burn the heater until all fuel is used (Section G). Use the right fuel.
▶You are using fuel which is past its 'use by' date. Start every heating season with fresh fuel.

THE HEATER REMAINS BURNING LOW

▶Wick position too low. Contact your dealer.
▶Before you refilled the tank, the heater had burnt up almost all the fuel. After having refilled and replaced the removable tank, wait for 30 minutes before igniting the heater.
▶You are using the incorrect type of fuel. Refer to THE RIGHT FUEL (See Section 'What you need to know in advance').
▶The room is insufficiently ventilated. Leave a window or a door wide open for a while.

THE HEATER IS BURNING TOO HIGH

▶You are using an incorrect, too volatile type of fuel. Refer to THE RIGHT FUEL (See Section 'What you need to know in advance').

▶Wick position too high. Contact your dealer.

G MAINTENANCE

Your heater needs hardly any maintenance. It is, however, important that you remove dust and stains in time with a damp cloth, because otherwise these may cause stains that are hard to remove. Under normal conditions, only three components are subject to wear:

1. THE BATTERIES

You may replace the batteries yourself. Do not dispose of old batteries along with the other domestic waste. Follow the locally applicable regulations regarding the disposal of domestic chemical waste.

2. THE IGNITION COIL

The ignition coil will have a longer life, if you ignite the heater in the correct manner. Replace the batteries in time and take care not to push in the ignition button with too much force. If the filament is broken, the ignition coil must be replaced.

3. THE WICK

To extend the glass fibre wick life, you must occasionally let the heater burn until the tank is completely emptied and the heater extinguishes by itself. Do this when you notice that the flame is weakening. The burn-out will cause some smells, so it is recommended that you take the heater outside of the living room.

Do not remove any heater components yourself. Always contact your dealer for repairs.

Let the heater cool down first, before you start any maintenance or service work.

H STORAGE (END OF THE HEATING SEASON)

We recommend that you burn up all the fuel in the fuel tank at the end of the heating season and store the heater properly. Follow the procedure on the next page:

1 Ignite the heater outside the living room and let it burn until all fuel is used.

2 Let the heater cool down.

3 Clean the heater with a damp cloth and then dry it with a dry cloth.

4 Remove the batteries from the holder 12 and store them in a dry place.

5 Clean the fuel filter (refer to section G).

6 Store the heater in a dust-free place, if possible in its original packaging. Unused fuel cannot be used for the next heating season. If there is still some fuel left, do not throw it away, but dispose of it in accordance with the local regulations for the disposal of domestic chemical waste. Always start the new heating season with fresh fuel. When you start re-using the heater, follow the instructions again (starting from Section A and as specified).

Transportation cap

TRANSPORTATION

Take the following measures to avoid fuel leakage during the transportation of the heater:

1 Let the heater cool down.
2 Remove the removable tank ⑨ from the heater and remove the fuel filter (Fig. O). Some drops may leak from the filter; keep a cloth at hand. Store the fuel filter and the removable tank outside the heater.
3 Place the transportation cap into the position of the fuel filter (Fig. P). Press it tight. The transportation cap will, as much as possible, prevent oil leakage from the heater during transport.
4 Always move the heater in an upright position.
5 Make the fixed tank empty with a fuel pump before transportation or in case of wrong or dirty fuel. First remove the fuel filter and then insert the fuel pump into the empty fixed tank. Follow the same procedure if the fuel tank contains water.
