ELECTRICAL CONNECTION (UK ONLY)
A) If your appliance comes fitted with a plug, it will incor-
porate a 13 Amp fuse. If it does not fit your socket, the
plug should be cut off from the mains lead, and an app-
ropriate plug fitted, as below.
WARNING: Very carefully dispose of the cut off plug
after removing the fuse: do not insert in a 13 Amp
socket elsewhere in the house as this could cause a
shock hazard.
With alternative plugs not incorporating a fuse, the cir-
cuit must be protected by a 15 Amp fuse.
If the plug is a moulded-on type, the fuse cover must be
re-fitted when changing the fuse using a 13 Amp Asta
approved fuse to BS 1362. In the event of losing the
fuse cover, the plug must NOT be used until a replace-
ment fuse cover can be obtained from your nearest
electrical dealer. The colour of the correct replacement
fuse cover is that as marked on the base of the plug.
B) If your appliance is not fitted with a plug, please fol-
low the instructions provided below:
WARNING - THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED
IMPORTANT
The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance
with the following code:
Green and yellow: Earth
Blue: Neutral
Brown: Live
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead may not corre-
spond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals
in your plug, proceed as follows:
The green and yellow wire must be connected to the termi-
nal in the plug marked with the letter E or the earth symbol
or coloured green or green and yellow.
The blue wire must be connected to the terminal marked
with the letter N or coloured black.
The brown wire must be connected to the terminal marked
with the letter L or coloured red.

Input Input Input
KW g/h KW g/h KW g/h
3.0 218 2.35 170 1.85 134 28÷30 mbar
This appliance is designed to operate with Butane, propane or mix LPG at nominal pressure:
28 ÷ 30 mbar. For a correct gas combustion the required air quantity is 6 m3/h.
WARNINGS
- ALWAYS use heater in accordance with instructions. Read the instructions book carefully
and keep it in a safe place.
- This appliance requires a rubber tube and a pressure regulator in accordance with the
law in force. If not supplied check with your gas supplier.
- Use ONLY in a well ventilated area.
- This appliance MUST NOT be used in basements, high rise flats, bathrooms or
bedrooms and in rooms having volume less than 18,5m3(37 m3in living rooms).
- This appliance emits the combustion residues in the room in which is used.
- DO NOT place clothes or other materials on the heater, as apart from the danger of fire
their presence could affect the efficient working of the appliance (fig. 1).
- DO NOT move heater from room to room when it is lit (fig. 2).
- DO NOT position heater alongside a wall or near curtains or arm-chairs etc. (fig. 3 - 4).
- ALWAYS face heater towards centre of room. Special care should be taken if the heater
is on a surface where it can move or twist on its wheels or castors if knocked by a child
or dog, etc.
- Minimum Clearance : 200 mm from sides,1500 mm from front.
- Be sure installation is complying to local standard.
- Set the appliance to run on maximum for at least 15 minutes the first time it is used, in
order to get rid of the “new” smell and a small amount of smoke coming from protective
substances applied to the components. Air the room while this procedure takes place.
Safety device
The heater you have purchased is fitted with safety devices which come on in the event of
malfunctioning while the appliance is in use. If the pilot light (placed opposite the burner)
accidentally goes out, or if the room is not sufficiently ventilated, the safety device will block
the gas flow, causing the heater to go off.

Gas leakages
If a leak is suspected, turn off gas at the gas bottle, open the window and air the room. DO
NOT disconnect the pressure regulator. Extinguish all naked lights. Slowly turn the gas on
and brush the connections with soapy water or liquid detergent - a gas leak will form bub-
bles. If a leak is found, turn the gas off and inform your Dealer. DO NOT use the heater
again until it has been inspected by your Dealer. NEVER USE MATCHES TO FIND LEAKS.
GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Gas bottle
Gas Bottle with 15 kg of maximum capacity can be installed.
Changing of gas bottle must not be carried out in the presence of a naked flame.
Use the gas bottle always in upright position. If a screw on regulator is used ensure that the
regulator washer is present and in good condition -replace if in any doubt.
To place the bottle in position, remove the rear panel which faces the inside during tran-
sport, by unfastening the screws; than put the bottle in position and replace the panel.
Do not turn the bottle upside down to use completely its content.
Pressure regulators, rubber tubes and clips
CHECK that tubing is completely over the nozzles at each end of
the tubing and that it is held firmly in place
by tube clips (See fig.5). Examine flexible
tubing regularly and get your Dealer to fit
new tubing 400 mm long complying to local
standard, if damaged. In any case replace
the tube every 5 years. Ensure that the rubber tube is inserted in the
plastic support (see fig. 6). When connecting the pressure regulator
to the gas bottle avoid undue twisting of the flexible tubing.
A 28 ÷ 30 mbar (11.2 in w.g.) pressure regulator for Butane or
Propane complying to local standard must be connected to the
appliance with the above tubing, using suitable tube clips.
Ventilation
USE ONLY IN A WELL VENTILATED ROOM
Adequate ventilation must be provi-
ded in rooms in which the heater is
used. This ensures removal of the
products of combustion and allows
the entry of replacement air.
The following table shows the smal-
lest size of room suitable for each
heat setting and the
dimensions of the aperture which
must be provided equally divided
between high and low level, accor-
ding with the maximum, medium or
minimum power.

original spare parts supplied by the manufacturer.
- The heater must not be located immediately below a fixed socket outlet.
- A safety device switches the fan heater off if it accidentally overheats.
To reset the unit for normal operation, remove the plug from the mains
socket for a few minutes, eliminate the cause of the overheating (e.g. air
intake or outlet grilles obstructed) and then plug the fan heater back in
again. Contact your nearest Technical Assistance Service if the fan heater
does not start operating normally again.
- Never direct the fan hater’s air flow towards furniture, curtains , spray cans and inflam-
mable material.
