Important Words of Caution
3. Filling the Fuel Tank with Kerosene
CAUTION : Use only clean, fresh kerosene.
4. Obtaining the Right Quantity of Fuel
2. Assembling your CORONA Heater
1. Combustion consumes indoor air, so only use your
heater in areas where ventilation is possible.
2. Do not place your heater in high traffic areas, nor in
places exposed to winds or strong drafts.
3. Your kerosene heater is hot while in operation.
Never place your heater closer than 1 meter from
combustible materials such as furniture, curtains
and clothing.
4. When you move the heater, use the handles on
each side of the cabinet.
5. Do not operate the ignition while the heater is
already in operation.
6. Never use highly volatile fuels, such as petrol that
will dangerously increase the risk of fire.
Use only clean, fresh kerosene in your heater.
Make sure the container is absolutely clean and dry.
7. Store the kerosene supply in an approved
container,tightly capped, preferably in a cool, dark
place. Never store in glass containers.
8. Never leave the heater unattended while in use,
always extinguish the heater before you go to
sleep.
9. Do not use your heater if it has been damaged or
is burning irregularly.
10. Make certain the heater is turned “OFF” before
filling the tank.
11. Do not move the heater while it is in operation.
12. Do not use the top of the heater for cooking or
boiling water as it will affect the operation of the
heater.
1. Open the guard grille and
remove the packing mate-
rial from the burner.
2. Open the tank room cover
on top of the heater and
remove the packing mate-
rial.

kerosene.
Do not fill beyond
this point.

1. Adjustment of flame can be done by the wick con-
trol dial:
By watching condition of flame and red glow,
adjust by the wick control dial.
1. Turn slowly and softly the wick control dial to left
(SMELL SAVE OFF POSITION) direction until it
stops. (Turn yellow mark on the wick control dial to
SMELL SAVE OFF POSITION.)
The heater will be completely off in approximately
one to three minutes. Make sure that you extin-
guish the heater completely.
2. Smoke and odor will result if the heater is oper-
ated with the flame too high or too low.
3. Adjusting the wick should always be done slowly
and carefully. A jerky motion could rise the flame
suddenly to a dangerous height.
6. Adjusting the Wick During Operation
7. Turning your Heater off
4. In case the ignition device
is unusable, you can ignite
the heater with a match.
Unfold the guard grille.
The un-burned portion of
the match should NOT be
left in the unit.
5. After the wick is lighted, check the position of the
burner chimney by rotating it left and right two or
three times.
1. Turn slowly the wick control dial to right direction
(IGNITION POSITION) until it stops to let the wick
go up to the maximum level.
Push the ignition button gently until it stops.
2. Visually check if the until is burning.
3. After making sure ignition, leave your finger slowly
and confirm the ignition button is back to its original
position.
5. Lighting the Heater
The fuel contained in the tank will be totally gone
after about in a few hours.
IMPORTANT:
When you use the heater for the first time, wait at
least 30 minutes before attempting to light it.
This time allows the wick to absorb enough
kerosene for satisfactory lighting and burning.
IMPORTANT:
After the above mentioned igniting process is
done, a fluff of white smoke may rise without
actually lighting the heater. If this happens
back up the ignition button a fraction of the
way and the unit will be lighted.
