7Dear Sir, Madam, Congratulations with your purchase of a portable domestic heater. You have purchased a quality product, which will serve you for many years to come. This, of course, provided you use the heater correctly. Please read these Directions for Use first, to ensure maximum lifetime for your heater. Your heater comes with a 48-month manufacturer’s warranty on all defects in materials or workmanship. We wish you a warm and comfortable time with your heater. Yours sincerely, PVG Holding b.v. Customer Service Department 1 READ THE DIRECTIONS FOR USE FIRST. 2 IN CASE OF ANY DOUBT, CONTACT YOUR ZIBRO DEALER.

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, Zibro Kristal or Zibro Bio. Only fuels of this kind will ensure clean and proper burning. Lower quality fuel may result in: 왘 increased possibility of malfunctioning 왘 incomplete burning 왘 reduced heater lifetime 왘 smoke and/or smells 왘 deposits on the grid or mantle 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.

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. 9 Use only in accordance with state and/or local regulations, ordinances and codes. 10 Make sure the heater is on a level surface during operation 11 Do not service or refuel heater while in operation or still hot. 12 Do not operate in areas exposed to flammable vapors or high duel level to avoid fire or explosion. 13 This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.

  • 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 paraffin oil, you must first finish up all the remaining fuel in the heater. ☞1. Introduction 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 (inclu- ding 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 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. The Laser System can be placed on any type of flooring and oper- ate safely, unless fuel or fire safety regulations specify otherwise. Check the gaps in the manner stipulated in the instructions in the manual. Recommended tool kit

3. The electrical supply system

The electrical system must be protected from overloads by an at least 5-Ampere fuse or contact breaker. Some installations (such as for use in mobile homes) must be fitted with a permanent connection to the household power circuits. This must be done by a recognised electrician.

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.

☞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.

Save all packaging materials for possible future trans- portation. A) Remove the cardboard (drilling) template and the user’s manual from the packaging. B) Remove the base plate and the box with the installation kit from the packaging. C) Remove the heater from the packaging. D) Remove the plastic bag covering the heater. E) Remove the plastic bag containing the parts. F) Remove the exhaust pipe from the bottom of the box. G) Check that all parts are present. Only the standard feed and exhaust system is supplied with the heater.

plied to position the hole for the exhaust pipe correct- ly. Use cellotape or small nails to attach the template to the desired position on the wall (see Fig. 4). 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 2º) (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. Fig. 5 Fig. 6

7. Installation of an external fuel tank

The installation of an external fuel tank is illustrated in a diagram (Fig. 1-11). The fact that installation tech- niques for fuel tanks vary means that it is impossible to provide a specific installation procedure. However, cer- 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.

5. Place the heater in the desired location. Attach the

right-angled exhaust bend to the outlet (the top open- ing) and attach the right-angled air hose to the inlet. Check that everything is firmly attached (See Fig. 11). Fig. 11 Outlet Inlet Right-angled exhaust bend Right-angled air hose☞

The heater is level and parallel to the wall.Chapter 1, INSTALLATION

  • 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 paraffin oil. Never use gasoline, LPG, camping gas or other flammable liquids. The use of these substances may cause explosions or fire. Available fuel supply options The fuel supply of the Laser 95 can be set up as follows: 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. The external fuel tank must have a filling opening on 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. Copper tubing with an exterior diameter of 3/8” must be used for the fuel pipe. The external tank and the installation of the external tank must meet fire applicable (local) regulations. Refer to the local authorities for these regulations. Installation may be done by a qualified person only.

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.

5. Igniting the heater

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: Switch the heater ON Press the ON/OFF button. The current room tempera- ture and the set temperature are displayed on the information display. The ON/OFF light starts to flash, after which the heater will switch on. 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 ON/OFF button will now be illuminated continuously. Room temperature: under 0°C 11 minutes 0°C - 15°C 9 minutes 15°C 8.5 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 E-2 on the information display). Step 2: Setting the room temperature The temperature setting can only be adjusted, when the heater is burning. Use the adjustment buttons to adjust the temperature. First press either of the two buttons to switch on the function (the TEMP light next to the infor- mation display will start blinking). Next, adjust the tem- perature using the button on the right (왔min.) to set the temperature to a higher setting and the button on the left (왖hour) to lower the temperature. Press once to increase the value one step. After approximately 10 sec- onds the light will stop blinking and setting will be locked. The available temperature settings range from 10°C minimum to 32°C maximum. When the heater has been unplugged (or after a power failure), the tempera- ture will reset to the factory setting of 20°C. The operating mode is automatically controlled in accor- dance 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 setting. the heater automatically switches to the “MED” or “LOW” operating mode in order to maintain the desired temperature.

Step 3: The correct use of ‘SAVE’ The ‘SAVE’ function allows you to limit the temperature. When this function is activated, the heater will automati- cally switch off, when the room temperature exceeds the set temperature by 2°C. Subsequently, when the room temperature has dropped again to the set temperature, the heater will automatically switch on again. Activate the ‘SAVE’ setting by pressing the appropriate button. The SAVE indicator light will light up. Switch off the function by pressing the SAVE button once again. Without the ‘SAVE’ setting your heater will maintain the set temperature by approxima- tion as well, by adjusting its heating capacity. ‘SAVE’ is an economy setting, which you can use when, for instance, you are not present in the room or to keep it frost-free. Step 4: The ‘FUEL’ indicator light When the FUEL indicator light lights up, it means that there is only fuel left for 10 more minutes. The count- down of the remaining heating time can be seen in the information display. You remove the fuel tank and refill it outside the living room. If you don’t refill it, you will hear an alarm signal every two minutes, warn- ing you to refill the removable tank and after 10 min- utes the heater will switch off automatically.

The timer allows you to switch on the heater automati- cally at a preset time. In order to switch on the timer, the correct time must have been set and the heater should be off. Follow the procedure below: [1] Press the TIMER button. The TIMER light and the information display will start blinking. [2] Use the adjustment buttons to set the time at which the heater must ignite. Use the button on the left (왖hour) to set the hours and the button on the right (왔min.) to set the minutes (interval of 10 minutes). [3] Press the ON/OFF button while the information dis- play is blinking. [4] After approximately 10 seconds the information dis- play will show CLOCK again and the TIMER indicator light will light up, indicating that the timer function has been activated. To clear the timer setting, press the ON/OFF button once. Note: When the room temperature is less than 15°C, the preset time is changed automatically depending on the room temperature in order to heat the room by the desired time. Room temperature Ignition time More than 15°C Set time 0°C ~ 15°C 10 minutes before set time Less than 0°C 20 minutes before set time

7. Room temperature sensor

The room temperature sensor is fitted with a 2.5 meter 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 cello tape 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.

The childproof lock can be used to prevent children accidentally changing the heater settings. When the heater is burning and the childproof lock is on, the heater can only be switched off. Other functions are blocked then. If the heater has already been switched off, the childproof lock also prevents accidental ignition of the heater. Activate the childproof lock by pressing the appropriate button and holding it down for more than 3 seconds. The KEY-LOCK indicator light will light up, indicating that the childproof lock has been activat- ed. Switch off the childproof lock by pressing the but- ton and holding it down for more than 3 seconds once again.

9. Switching off the heater

There are two ways to switch off the heater. [1] Press the ON/OFF button. The information display☞ ☞

will show the CLOCK signal. The air circulation ven- tilator and the ventilator motor continue to operate for approximately 3 minutes in order to cool the heater down. [2] Press the TIMER button, when you want to switch off the heater and ignite it again with the timer the next time. This not only switches off the heater, but it also activates the timer function. You can change the required time with the adjustment buttons.

10. 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. Ensure that the metal housing has cooled sufficiently before touching it. Under normal conditions, a period of 30 to 45 minutes is sufficient to allow the heater to cool down completely. 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. Step 5: Remove the front panel. Step 6: Clean the inside of the heater. Before starting to clean the heater, ensure 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. Step 7: Re-attach the front panel. Step 8: Insert the heater plug into the socket. Step 9: Switch the heater ON. Step 10: Re-program the heater (clock and timer). 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.

11. Cleaning the filter (monthly)

Switch off the heater and let it cool down, before you start any maintenance work. Also disconnect the plug from the mains. Your Zibro needs hardly any maintenance. It is, however, important that you clean the louvers, grilles and circulation fan cover on the back of the heater weekly. Periodically check the flue pipe connection for leakage or separation. Regularly inspect the fuel filter as well: [1] Remove the removable tank from the heater and remove the fuel filter. Some drops may leak from the filter; keep a cloth at hand. [2] Remove the dirt by tapping the fuel filter upside-down against a hard surface. (Never clean it with water!) [3] Reinstall the fuel filter into the heater. We recommend that you remove dust and stains in time with a damp cloth, because otherwise these may cause stains that are hard to remove. Do not remove any heater components yourself. Always contact your Zibro dealer for repairs. When the power cord is damaged, it may only be replaced by an authorized fitter. Use a new cord of the type H05 VV-F.

12. 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 has46

Chapter 2, OPERATION

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