EXTENDED PERIODS OF TIME

If you follow the following instructions exactly, your oil heater will continue to work just as efficiently and reliably during the next heating season . Swill a small amount of fuel around in the tank and rinse it out. Never mix any water with the fuel as this will cause the tank to rust on the inside. Remove the last traces of fuel from the heater (by burning away the fuel). Once the tank is empty, re-light the heater. Turn the wick all the way to the top and allow it to burn down completely (this takes about 1 hour). This procedure must be done outdoors. Take out the batteries. Allow the fuel tank to dry well on the inside. Remove any traces of carbon or soot which may have accumulated on the wick controller, the wick guide or the burner with a screwdriver and/or a small brush. To avoid corrosion, remove the batteries before putting the oil heater away for storage. Before putting the heater away for storage, make sure that the wick is in the lowest possible position and that the automatic cut-out is unlocked. Always store the oil heater in the original box, using the original packaging materials. Keep the operating instructions in a safe place. The oil heater must be stored in a well ventilated room.
