5.2 Operating

GASREQUIREMENTS

• Gas connections and hose assembly must conform to local safety regulations.
- Never use a gas cylinder with a damaged body, valve, collar, or foot ring. A dented or rusty gas tank may be hazardous and should be checked out by a gas supplier.
- Never connect this appliance to an unregulated gas source.
- When the appliance is not in use, turn the gas cylinder „OFF“.

CONNECTING TO A GAS CYLINDER

• Use 9 kg gas cylinder. Please refer to your gas supplier for suitable gas cylinder.
  • Refer to your gas supplier for instructions on the use of your gas cylinder.

WARNING! Fire Danger!

Only change gas cylinders outdoors or in a well ventilated area away from naked flames and any other source of ignition.

• The gas cylinder must always be used in an upright position.
- Close the heater control knob by turning it fully clockwise.
- Close the gas cylinder tap and then attach the regulator onto the gas cylinder.
- Tighten all connections firmly and with a spanner where appropriate. The cylinder should be placed on the cylinder base.
- Check for leaks at all joints using a soap/water solution. If a leak is found, tighten the joint and then retest.

CAUTION!

Before first use and after every gas cylinder change, gas delivery system must be purged of air before igniting! To do so, turn the control knob anticlockwise to „”. Press knob and hold for 3 minutes before attempting ignition.

HOW TO LIGHT THE PILOT

Control knob OFF Pilot High + Low- Ignition

• Check all connections prior to each use.
• Turn on main gas supply at source.
• Press to turn control knob anti-clockwise to ,, 🎨“ (see picture above).
• Hold knob depressed, press Ignition button repeatedly until pilot flame is lit, then continue to hold the knob depressed for 10 seconds until the pilot remains lit after releasing knob.
• If pilot fails to ignite, press to turn knob clockwise to "0" and repeat

HOW TO LIGHT THE PATIO HEATER

• The pilot should be lit and the knob set to „
- Hold knob depressed gently and turn anti-clockwise to „+“.
- When mesh glows lit, turn knob clockwise from „+“ to „-“ as required.

NOTE!

The burner may be noisy when initially turned on. To eliminate excessive noise from the burner, turn the control knob to „”. Then turn the knob to desired heat level.

RELIGHTING

• Turn control knob to „0“.
• Wait at least 5 minutes, to let gas dissipate, before attempting to re-light pilot.
• Repeat steps mentioned in part „How to light the patio heater”.

EXTINGUISH

• Hold knob depressed lightly & turn the knob clockwise to „0“.
• Close the valve of the gas cylinder or the regulator after use.

NOTE!

Close the gas regulators after use and allow this appliance to cool before moving the appliance.

GAS LEAK TESTING

CAUTION!

Never use a naked flame to check for leaks! Never smoke while leak testing!

• The gas connections on this appliance are leak tested at the factory prior to shipment.

- This appliance needs to be periodically checked for leaks and an immediate check is required if the smell of gas is detected.

- Make a soap solution using 1 part of liquid dish-washing soap to 3 parts water. The soap solution can be applied with a soap bottle, brush, or rag to the leak tested points shown in the figure to the right.

- The valve of the gas cylinder should be in the „OFF“ position at this point of the leak test. Once the soapy solution is applied to the gas connections, the valve of the gas cylinder needs to be turned to the „ON“ position.

- Soap bubbles will begin to form in the soapy solution if a leak is present.

- In case of a leak, turn off the gas supply. Tighten any leaking fittings, then turn the gas supply on and recheck.

6. Cleaning and maintenance

6.1 Cleaning

CAUTION!

The device is not suited for direct washing via water jets. Therefore, you must not use any kind of pressure water jet for cleaning the device!

- Let device cool off before cleaning or repairing.

- Keep exterior surfaces clean.

Use warm soapy water for cleaning. Never use flammable or corrosive cleaning agents.

○ While washing your unit, be sure to keep the area around the burner and pilot assembly dry at all times. If the gas control is exposed to water in any way, never try to use the heater. The gas control must be replaced.

- Spiders and insects can nest in burner or orifices. This dangerous condition can damage the heater and render it unsafe for use. Clean burner holes by using a heavy duty pipe cleaner. Compressed air may help clear away smaller particles.

○ Carbon deposits may create a fire hazard. If any carbon deposits develop, clean dome and engine with warm soapy water.

NOTE!

In a salt-air environment (such as near the sea), corrosion occurs more quickly than normal. Frequently check the corroded areas and repair them promptly.

○ Only use a soft cloth and make sure you never use any kind of abrasive agents or pads which could scratch the surface.

o Make sure the device has been cleaned properly before storing it in a dry place.

6.2 Maintenance

• Check the tubing or the flexible hose once a month and each time the cylinder is changed.
• The tubing or the flexible hose must be changed within one year.
• The hose assembly must be replaced prior to the appliance being put into operation if there is evidence of excessive abrasion or wear, or if the hose is damaged. For replacement, use hose assembly specified by the manufacturer only.

The heater should be inspected before use and at least annually by a qualified service person. More frequent cleaning may be required as necessary. It is imperative that control compartment, burners and circulating air passageways of the appliance are kept clean.

1. Possible Malfunctions

Pilot won't light	Cylinder valve is closed Open valve
	Blockage in orifice or pilot tube	Clean or replace orifice or pilot tube
	Air in the gas line	Open gas line and bleed it (pressing control knob in) for not more than 1-2 minutes or until you smell gas
	Low gas pressure Gas cylinder low or empty
	Igniter fails	Use match to light pilot, and obtain new igniter and replace. (See pictures page 36)
Pilot won't stay lit	Dirt build up around pilot Clean dirt from around pilot
	Connection between gas valve and pilot assembly is loose	Tighten connection and perform leak test
Burner won't light	Gas pressure is low Replace gas cylinder
	Control knob is not in „ON“ position	Turn control knob to „ON“ position
Burner flame is lowNote: Do not operate heater below 50 °C (40°F)	Gas pressure is low Replace gas cylinder
	Outdoor temperature is greater than 50 °C (40°F) and tank is less than 25% full	Replace gas cylinder
	Supply hose is interrupted (e.g. bent hose)	Resolve interruption and perform leak test on hose
Emitter glows unevenNote: Normally it does not glow 2.5 cm below the emitter	Gas pressure is low Replace gas cylinder
	Base is not on a level surface	Place heater on a level surface
	Heater not level Level heater
