1 READ THE DIRECTIONS FOR USE S 2 IN CASE OF ANY DOUBT, CONTACT UR ZIBRO DEALER.

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW IN ADVANCE THE RIGHT FUEL Only use Class C1 paraffin fuel in accordance with BS2869: Part 2, or equivalent. Your Zibro 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:

increased possibility of malfunctioning incomplete burning

reduced heater lifetime

deposits on the grid or mantle

LAAAAL Using the right fuel is therefore essential for safe, efficient, and comfortable use of your heater. Always refer to your local Zibro dealer for the right fuel for your heater. + The first time you ignite your heater it will smell like ‘new’ for a short time. + Store your fuel in a cool and dark place. + Fuel has a limited shelf life. Start every heating season with renewed fuel. + The right quality of fuel will be assured, when you use Zibro Extra or Zibro Kristal for your heater.

+_If you change to another brand and/or type of parrafin oil, you must first finish up all the remaining fuel in the heater.

1 Make sure that children are always aware of the presence of a burning heater. 2 Position the front of the heater at a distance of minimum 1.5 metres from walls, curtains, and furniture.

3 Do not use the heater in dusty rooms. You will not have optimum burning in such rooms. Do not use the heater in the immediate surrounding of a bath, a shower or a swimming pool.

4 Switch off the heater, before you leave or go sleeping. Unplug the heater as well, when you go away for a longer period of time (e.g. holidays).

5 Store and move fuel only in suitable tanks and jerrycans.

6 Make sure that the fuel is not exposed to heat or extreme temperature changes. Always store the fuel in a cool, dry and dark place (sunlight will affect the quality).

7 Never use the heater in places where harmful gasses or fumes may be present (e.g. exhaust gasses or paint fumes).

8 Beware that the grid of the heater becomes hot. If the appliance is covered there is a risk of fire.

Chapter 1, INSTALLATION

This chapter contains all the relevant information, specifically:

+ Installation specifications

+ _List of installation tools

+ Basic requirements for the installation of the fuel tank

+ Instructions for the installation of the Laser System

The heater can be installed at any location, on condi- tion that there is full compliance with electrical, fuel and emission regulations. Before you start installing the heating system (possibly including electrical wiring and fuel supply equipment), check the local building and fire safety regulations. The requirements stipulated in these regulations must be respected in order to guarantee a legally approved installation and correct operation. The heater was designed to be used to a

a maximum altitude of 1000m above sea level. Contact your dealer for the necessary adjustments if you wish to use it at a higher altitude.

2. Moving the heater

In addition to the space required for the heater, extra room must be kept free for air circulation. We recom- mend that you store fuel elsewhere. The Laser System can be placed on any type of flooring (including fitted carpets or other flammable materials) and operate safely, unless fuel or fire safety regulations specify oth- erwise. Check the gaps in the manner stipulated in the instructions in the manual.

This must be done by a recognised

Heater fuel (exclusively water-free, pure paraffin oil) in 200/1000 litre storage tanks located outside. If large tanks are used, a pressure regulator with a max. of 2.5 PSI (+ 0.17 bar) must be fitted at the inlet on the heater. This must be carried out in strict adherence to all local standards and/or building regulations.

Chapter 1, INSTALLATION

5. Wiring for the room temperature sensor

A temperature sensor that can be fitted to a wall mea- sures the room temperature in order to automatically regulate the heating. The standard sensor wire is approximately 2.5 m long.

The sensor may not be placed in a draught, direct sunlight or the warm air flowing out of the heater. This may cause incorrect temperature indications.

Do not remove any components from the heater. Always contact your dealer if repairs are required.

If the electricity cable is damaged, this may only be replaced with type H0O5 VV-F and by a recognised installer.

Chapter 1, INSTALLATION Standard installation parts

The following list of standard installation parts is sup- plied with your heater. It may be necessary to order extra parts from your Zibro dealer if other installation methods are required.

ly. Use cellotape or small nails to attach the template to the desired position on the wall (see Fig. 4).

Comment: The heater must be installed on a strong and stable floor. The floor must be flat and level. If this is not the case, the heater can be levelled by means of adjustable legs. This can be checked with the plumb line.

2. Drill the hole for the exhaust pipe. Use a hole saw with a diameter of 70-80 mm (see Fig. 5). The opening on the interior side of the wall must be a little higher than the opening on the outside in order to create a slight gradient in the feed-through and exhaust pipe

after installation (approximately 2°) (see Fig. 6). This ensures that condensed water in the exhaust pipe flows to the outside and prevents the penetration of rainwa- ter and snow after installation.

3. Install the inner flue pipe. a. For wall thickness 230-320mm. From inside the room, insert the inner flue pipe through the hole. Make sure the arrow on the inner flue pipe is pointing up. Secure the inner flue pipe to the wall with the three wood screws. (See Fig. 7)

b. For wall thickness 130-230mm. Remore Intake joint and Exhaust joint from Outer flue pipe (See Fig. 8).

Chapter 1, INSTALLATION

c. From outside, insert the outer flue pipe through the hole. Secure the outer flue pipe to the wall by turning it clockwise. This locks the two halves together (See Fig. 9).

IMPORTANT: Make sure the arrow on the outer flue pipe frange is pointing up. Make sure to secure the outer flue pipe well. (A-part shown in Fig. 9)

Outer flue pipe frange

4. Attach the right-angled exhaust pipe bend to the outlet of the exhaust pipe. Cut, if necessary, the flexible air hose to size. Fasten the right-angled air hose to both ends of the flexible air hose - now attach the right-angled air hose to the inlet of the exhaust pipe. Attach the right-angled air hose to both ends of the flexible air hose. Now fasten the right-angled air hose to the inlet of the exhaust pipe.

Fasten the right-angled air hose onto the inlet with a hose clip. Seal the inlets and outlets that are not being used with the caps supplied. Check that the caps are firmly in position (See Fig.10). Use water or soap suds to provide lubrication when fitting the right-angled air hose onto the flexible air hose. The total length of the exhaust pipe may be a maximum of 3 m (max. 3 bends).

5. In case the circuit board cover gets in the way of the connection of the standard flue pipe, use the exten- sion pipe (S) for the exhaust outlet mouth of the heater (See Fig. 11).

tain criteria determine the manner in which the heater is supplied with fuel. Use the following checklist as a guideline for the installation of an external tank.

Chapter 1, INSTALLATION CHECKLIST

+ Check whether the heater has been connected to a suitable socket.

+ Check that a suitable quantity of petroleum is in the fuel tank.

+ Ensure that the fuel is free of water or other contaminants.

+ Check that the fuel tank is in good working order - it must be free of rust, corrosion and/or leaks.

°__Inspect the fuel pipe for signs of leaks, loose connections, cracks, air bubbles or blockages.

+ Check that the fuel valves on the fuel tank and the fire safety valve are open in order to allow the free flow of fuel.

°__ Check outside the building in order to ascertain that there is no fuel or obstructions to the free circulation of air in the area immediately adjacent to the exhaust pipe.

°__Inspect the inlet air hose for cracks, loose connections or blockages.

°_ Check the outlet air hose for cracks, loose connections or blockages.

+ Check the back of the heater to ensure that the airflow to the air circulation ventilator is not obstructed.

+ Inspect the interior of the building to ensure that the area immediately adjacent to the heater is free of fuel and objects that may obstruct the free flow of air.

+ Check that the room sensor is not exposed to draughts, direct sunlight or heat radiated directly from the heater.

+ Use a spirit level to check that the heater is level.

If this inspection brings any faults to light, resolve these

problems before using the heater.

Use only water-free high quality pure

a paraffin oil. Never use benzene, LPG, camping gas or other flammable liquids.

The use of these substances may cause

The fuel supply of the Laser 56 can be set up as follows:

Insert the removable fuel tank in the top of the heater. Connect the free end of the fuel hose to the connect- ing piece of the removable fuel tank, pressing it firmly until you hear a click.

Check all parts for any fuel leaks.

Check on a weekly basis.

Large gravity-operated exterior tank

To install a large gravity-operated exterior tank, follow the instructions below. We recommend that you call in

a recognised installer.

The inlet pressure to the heater may not exceed 2.5 psi. Use a pressure reduction valve with a maximum thrust

of 2.5 psi (+ 0.17 bar).

The installation height of the bottom of the fuel tank must be 40 cm or more above the level of the floor on which the heater is standing. This will ensure that there is sufficient fuel inlet pressure. The distance between the floor surface on which the heater is standing and the top of the fuel tank may not exceed 2.5 metres. This will prevent excessive fuel inlet pressures.

The pipe may not have any inverted U-bends (to pre- vent air pockets that may block the fuel supply).

We recommend using a water-blocking filter in the fuel pipe leading into the tank. A cut-off valve must be fit- ted to the tank.

We recommend installing a fire safety valve and a fuel filter in the fuel pipe.

The use of a cut-off valve, placed just before the pipe enters the building, will limit the quantity of fuel to be tapped off to a minimum if the heater requires mainte- nance.

Chapter 1, INSTALLATION If a fuel pipe inside the building is more than 90 cm long, you must use an extra cut-off valve.

The external fuel tank must be placed at least 2 metres away from any heat source.

Copper tubing with an exterior diameter of 3/8" must be used for the fuel pipe.

The installation of the external tank must meet fire safety regulation NFPA31 and/or applicable local regu-

lations. Refer to the local authorities for these regula- The external fuel tank must have a filling opening on tions. the top and a ventilation opening with a weather- resistant cap on the side. Some tanks use the same

opening for ventilation and filling.

Important: Ensure that the fuel pipe is free of dust and waste particles. These particles may cause problems in the fuel receptacle.

Step 1: Open the valve(s)

Screw the valve on the top of the removable tank open or open the valve for the external fuel tank and the fire safety valve of the heater (if present).

Step 2: Start the fuel supply Carefully press the red unlocking button for one sec- ond to release the float in the fuel receptacle.

The fuel receptacle only has to be unlocked when the heater is activated for the first time or after it has run out of fuel, or if the heater has not been used for an extended period of time. Unlocking may also be required if the fuel inlet pressure exceeds 2.5 psi

(& 0.17 bar). In this case, a pressure reduction valve must be installed.

Step 3: Adjust the clock Important: The clock on the heater must always be set to the correct time.

A. Switch the time selector switch to “CLOCK SET"

B. Press the “HOUR” and the “MINUTE” buttons to adjust the hours and minutes. Pressing the “HOUR" or “MINUTE” button once will adjust the time by one unit (hours or minutes respectively). Holding the button down accelerates the adjustment of the time display.

All clock and timer settings are deleted if the power is cut off for a period longer than 10 seconds. The infor- mation display flashes “PM 12:00" when the heater is switched off. The clock and timer now have to be reprogrammed.

C. Set the timer switch to the “NORMAL" setting after completing the clock adjustment. The current time is then displayed on the digital indicator.

The heater is operated directly by the user. However, the heat yield is controlled automatically in accordance with the room temperature registered by the tempera- ture sensor.

Step 1: Select manual operation If the heater is in “AUTO” mode, switch the “AUTO"

switch to “OFF” to change to “MANUAL" operation.

Step 2: Switch the heater ON Press the ON/OFF button until “ON” is displayed. The current room temperature and the set temperature are displayed on the information display.

The ON/OFF light starts to flash, after which the heater will switch on. The heater will not work if the room temperature is higher than the desired temperature setting.

Note: (*) The start-up time depends on the room tem- perature.

After 9-15 minutes, the heater will automatically select the correct operating mode and the ONJOFF button will now be illuminated continuously.

Room temperature: under 0°C - 15 minutes 0°C- 15°C - 12 minutes 15°C -9 minutes

If no flames are visible after the start-up period, the heater will deactivate and then restart automatically. If flames are still not detected, the heater will deactivate and will have to be restarted manually (error code EE-2 on information display).

Step 3: Setting the room temperature

Slide the “NORMAL" temperature selector to the selected position in order to set the desired room tem- perature.

The desired temperature setting is shown in the infor- mation display when you set the room temperature. The scale on the temperature selector only serves as a reference point. The figures on the information display and on the scale may differ, this is normal.

The operating mode is automatically controlled in accordance with the room temperature detected by the room temperature sensor. The heater works in the “HIGH" operating mode until the room temperature has reached the desired level.

When the room temperature reaches the chosen set- ting, the heater automatically switches to the “MED" or “LOW" operating mode in order to maintain the desired temperature. If the room temperature exceeds

6. Automatic operation

Automatic operation is initiated by programming the time/temperature settings for a specific time. Working in “SET-BACK" mode is programmed for a 24-hour peri- od. This mode was developed to save energy by using a lower temperature setting, usually at night.

20°C (75°F) 15°C 15°C (60°F) (60°F) 1 PM 10:00 AM 6:00 PM 10:00

Programming is carried out as follows (night setting): Ensure that the clock has already been programmed (see step 4, chapter 2-5).

Step 1: Set the start time of the “SET-BACK“ mode

A. Slide the time selector switch to the “START SET- BACK" position.

B. Press “HOUR” and “MINUTE” to set the desired start and finish times. (pay attention to the AM or PM designation).

When setting the “SET-BACK" time, the “MINUTE” button will change in increments of 10 minutes (e.g. 10:00, 10:10, 10:20 etc.).

C. The start time of the “SET-BACK" mode is then shown in the information display (e.g. PM 10:00).

Step 2: Set the finish time of the “SET-BACK" mode. While the time selector switch is in the “END SET- BACK" mode, you must now programme the finish time in the same manner as described above

After programming, move the time selector switch back to the NORMAL position.

Step 3: Set the room temperature

Slide the “SET-BACK" temperature selector (night temperature) to the desired position (e.g. 15°C). Turn the AUTO switch to the “ON” position.

Step 4: Set the ONJOFF switch to ON If the temperature is lower than or drops below the requested temperature, the heater will start automati- cally.

7. Reprogramming the heater

In certain circumstances (e.g. power cuts), it may be necessary to reprogram the heater. Follow the steps specified above when reprogramming the timer. Do not forget to set the clock (step 4, chapter 2-5).

8. Cleaning system for the ignition rod Automatic cleaning system of the ignition ignition rod The heater will switch off automatically each day at 2:00 in the morning, allowing the ignition rod to clean

itself for 10 minutes. CL: 10 will then appear in the dis- play, changing every minute to CL:09, CL: 08, etc.

Chapter 2, OPERATION Manual cleaning system

The heater must be switched off during manual clea- ning.

The ignition rod can be cleaned manually (10 minutes) in the following manner:

Press the ‘Hour’ and ‘Minute’ buttons simultaneously for 3 minutes.

CL: 10 will then appear in the information display. Cleaning will then start automatically without any other input.

Attention: Cleaning the ignition is important in order to extend the life span of the ignition rod. We recom- mend cleaning the ignition rod at least once per week.

9. Room temperature sensor

The room temperature sensor is fitted with a 2.5 metre cable. This is located on the back of the heater.

Ensure that the cable does not touch the outlet tube. The room temperature sensor can be installed with cellotape or with a wood screw.

Select the location where the sensor is to be installed in such a way that it will not be exposed to direct sun- light, draughts or the warm air flowing out of the heater.

10. Switching the heater off

Move the ON/OFF switch to the “OFF” (Auto-light, tem- perature light goes out) position. The operating mode light will start to flash until the flame disappears. The air circulation ventilator and the ventilator motor con- tinue to operate for approximately 3 minutes in order to cool the heater down. Check that the ON/OFF light switches off when the ventilator has come to rest. If you press the ON/OFF button during the cooling peri- od, the heater will automatically restart at the end of this period. Pull the plug out of the socket after the

a on/off light has switched off if the heater will not be used for an extended period of time.

11. Power cuts - recovery system

If a power cut occurs while the heater is in operation, all electrical systems will be switched off automatically. When power is restored, the heater will automatically re-ignite. However, this only happens in the manual mode.

The clock setting and Set-Back timer programme are deleted if the power cut lasts longer than 10 seconds. The AUTO light will flash when the power is restored. The heater must now be reprogrammed.

If a brief power cut occurs and the flame sensor contin- ues to detect a flame, only the blower and circulation ventilators will reactivate when power is restored.

The “HIGH”, “MED” and “LOW"“ operating mode lights will start to flash simultaneously (the igniter is not reac- tivated). Switch the heater off for a moment and then on again to return to normal operation.

12. Recovery after overheating

The heater is protected against damage caused by overheating.

A sensor will activate if the temperature in the housing exceeds 90°C.

Step 1: Switch the heater OFF Step 2: Allow the heater to cool down.

Under normal conditions, a period of 30 to 45 minutes is sufficient to allow the heater to cool down completely.

Ensure that the metal housing has cooled sufficiently before touching it.

Step 3: Pull the heater plug out of the socket.

Step 4: Look for the source of the overheating. Overheating is usually caused by objects that obstruct the free flow of air. Check that the circulation ventilator or exhaust pipes are not blocked. Check that there are no objects blocking the outlet system (see also installa- tion Fig. 1-1 and 1-2).

Chapter 2, OPERATION Remove the front panel. Clean the inside of the heater.

that the interior is cool enough to touch. Wipe all dust off the outside of the housing With a clean, non-fluffy, damp cloth or another suitable cleaning aid. Do not forget to clean the outside of the heat chamber and the heat exchanger.

g Before starting to clean the heater, ensure

Step 7: Re-attach the front panel. Step 8: Insert the heater plug into the socket. Step 9: Switch the heater ON.

Step10: Re-programme the heater (clock and set-back timer).

Attention: If the heater overheats after the completion of a recovery procedure, contact your dealer and do not switch the heater on until the problem has been resolved.

13. Cleaning the filter (monthly)

The filter of the fuel pump must be cleaned each

month and at the end of the heating season.

a) Open the flap on the right of the heater.

b) Close the cut-off valve on the fuel pipe.

c) Place the fuel collecting gutter under the float house in order to prevent fuel spills. Collect the fuel in a container.

d) Unscrew the plate covering the filter.

e) Remove the filter and clean it carefully with compressed air.

f) Replace the filter and screw the covering plate back into position.

g) Wipe away the spilled fuel.

h) Open the cut-off valve in the fuel pipe. Ensure that there are no fuel leaks.

Note: At the end of the heating season, remove any fuel remaining in the float house by unscrewing the drain plug.

14. Before consulting an expert

The following situations do not indicate defects.

While switching the heater on or off

White smoke can be seen when the heater is switched on for the first time.

Machine oil or dust on the burner chamber or heat exchanger is burning.

The flames flicker for several minutes after the heater has been ignited.

The ignition rod continues to function when the heater is cold, even several minutes after ignition. This may cause the flames to be a little larger.

The heater makes intermittent creaking sounds when warming up or cooling down.

Expansion and shrinkage of metal parts may cause a slight creaking sound.

Circulation of air in the room does not start immediate- ly when the heater is lit.

To prevent unpleasant cold draughts, the ventilator only switches on when the heater has become warm.

A loud clicking sound can be heard during the first use or when the fuel runs out.

There is air in the fuel pump. This should be gone with- in approximately 1 minute.

If the clicking sound in the fuel pump does not stop after approximately 1 minute, push the red ‘reset’ but- ton on the float chamber (do not hold it in). Also check whether all the fuel valves are open, the fuel filters are clean and whether there is sufficient fuel.

Note: The fuel pump may make a slight ticking sound

during normal operation. This does not indicate a prob- lem.

While the heater is in operation A part of the burner pot and/or heat exchanger

becomes red in colour during operation. This is normal and does not indicate a problem.
