GAS SUPPLY
Your heater is fitted with a flexible hose and bayonet coupling which enables you to connect or
disconnect it from the gas supply.
TO CONNECT
Insert the coupling end into the wall socket firmly and rotate the knurled section clockwise to it's
locked position.
TODISCONNECT
Apply firm forward pressure to the knurled area, rotate anti clockwise and pull towards you. The
hose should now come away from the wall socket. Gas is automatically isolated when the hose is
disconnected.
ELECTRICAL SUPPLY
Your heater is fitted with a power supply lead, which should be connected to a standard domestic
socket.
POWER FAILURE
Your Everdure heater will operate quite normally in the event of a power failure. Should the power
fail while the heater is operating, the fan will stop. There is however, no need for concern as your
heater has been designed to operate satisfactorily with the fan off. (See diagram on next page).
Should you wish to ignite your heater during a power failure, follow the instructions under Manual
Ignition.
Note: If your heater has been disconnected for some time, there will be air in the flexible hose. It
will therefore take a little longer to ignite when you first turn it on.

MANUALIGNITION
The heater may be manually lit by opening the dress guard (see Cleaning) and while holding down
the ignition button, apply a lighted longreach match or taper to the pilot. The ignition button needs
to be held down for 20 seconds to allow the valve to lock in. Close up the dress guard as described
in the cleaning section.
ABNORMAL OPERATION
As the heater heats up or cools down, expansion or contraction takes place and the occasional
'click' may be heard. This isnormal, however, continuous metallic noises, grinding sounds, the
smell of gas or any of the symptoms listed on the fault finding chart should be investigated
immediately. Turn the appliance off and disconnect the gas and electrical supplies. If the fault
cannotbe fixed or any doubts exist, contact your nearest EVERDURE service agent or contact
Everdure on the telephone number on the front cover of this booklet.
CONTROLS
The heating controls and fan switches are located under a lid situated on the top right hand side of
the heater. Lighting instructions are affixed to the underside of the lid.
FAN AND FAN SWITCH
The two-speed fan is controlled by the fan switch in the control box, and, as indicated on the control
box lid label, the switch has three positions, slow fast and off.
Selection of slow or fast fan speed in conjunction with High, Medium or Low heat settings is
determined by personal choice and/or heating requirements at the time.
LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS
Open the control box lid, depress and hold down the 'ON/IGNITION/LOW' button. This button
operates the sparker, which in turn ignites the pilot flame and the low setting burner. It is necessary
to hold down the 'ON/IGNITION/LOW' button firmly for at least 20 seconds to allow the gas valve
to 'lock in'. If the burner fails to light, repeat the ignition sequence described above.

IMPORTANT: DISCONNECT GAS AND ELECTRICAL SUPPLIES BEFORE CLEANING
ANY INTERNAL SURFACES. MALFUNCTIONS CAUSED BY EXCESSIVE LINTING, WILL
NOT BE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY.
The outer surfaces of the heater should only be cleaned or dusted with a damp cloth. Access to the
area in front of the tiles is achieved by opening the dress guard as follows.
Using both hands, simultaneously apply upward pressure at the bottom left and bottom right of the
dress guard, as indicated in FIG 2, and lift up until the wire rods come out of their locations. Ease
the bottom of the dress guard forward of the front edge of the reflector and pull down as far as it
will go (about 2cms). Pivot the dress guard up until enough space for access is achieved. The dress
guard is not removable nor will it open right up. This has been designed like this for safety reasons.
To close the dress guard to its correct position, pivot it back dovm, lift it up and guide the ends of
the wire rods back over their location holes then push down firmly to secure the dress guard in
place.
Cleaning the area in front of the tiles must be done with great care as the burner tiles are fragile and
are very easily damaged.
Access to the underneath of the heater is gained through the lower louvre panel. This panel is
hinged at the bottom and is opened by gripping the top louvre blade about 3cms in from each end,
pushing down and pulling out (see FIG 2).
This area needs particular attention and should be gently vacuumed out from time to time. The
frequency depends greatly on the environment that the heater is used in, the more furnishings and
carpets that are in close proximityto it, the more frequent the cleaning. A check should be made
once every month and when dust and fluff become apparent, it should be gently vacuumed out. The
fan blades may be rotated by hand whilst vacuuming to ensure all fluff etc, is removed.
The guard is fitted to this appliance to reduce the risk of fire or injury from bums and no part of it
should be permanently removed.
FOR PROTECTION OF CHILDREN OR THE INFIRM, A SECONDARY GUARD IS
REQUIRED.
