05 - HOW TO USE
Commissioning
- Fill the tank with clean fuel. Use only diesel or kerosene.
- The fuel gauge on the top of the tank allows you to check the fuel level
- Connect the plug of the power cord to a grounded power supply (AC220V-240V/50Hz).
The grounding is mandatory.
When the „Commissioning“ described above is completed, the power indicator lamp lights up. Slide the power switch to the „ON“ position.
When the temperature set with the thermostat controller is higher than the ambient temperature, the electrodes start sparking and after 7 seconds the heater starts. If the temperature set with the thermostat control is lower than the ambient temperature, turn the thermostat control to the desired temperature setting, the electrodes start to spark and after 7 seconds the heater starts.
Cold start
At low temperatures, keep the vent hole (see Fig. 1) closed with a finger during ignition to facilitate start-up.
Abnormal operation
In the event of a malfunction (flame failure, reduced airflow, poor combustion, etc.) the heater will stop and the operation indicator light will begin to flash.
Manual reset/restart
If the heater is in lockout mode, check and correct the cause of the lockout before turning the heater back on. To reset, turn the ON/OFF switch to 0 and then back to 1 after 30 seconds. In case of repeated malfunction, call the technical service. Turning the thermostat knob will NOT reset the heater.
Turn off
Move the switch to the „OFF“ (O) position. Unplug the heater if it will not be used for an extended period of time.
- Never disconnect the heater from the mains to stop it during operation.
- Do not cover the heater. Do not block the air inlet and outlet.
