Note
• It is recommended to replace the gas hose after
3 or 4 years (see date shown on hose). The gas
hose becomes porous after a time. Also check the
hose for leaks on a yearly basis at least. Even if the
expiration date has not been expired yet, you must
check the condition of the hose always. In case of
damage/cracks you have to replace the hose im-
mediately. Please make sure that you comply with
all local health and safety regulations (e.g. fire
code).
• Pressure regulators have a default maximum life
span as indicated by the date printed on the regu-
lator, but please note that local health and safety
regulations may overrule this.
• Only replace the pressure regulator with one pro-
vided by the manufacturer.
• Consult the local regulations, these may differ.
• Always store gas bottles upright, in use as well as
when empty.
Storage
There is no limitation on the storage of the appliance
indoors provided that the cylinder is removed from
the appliance. Between uses:
• Turn control knob OFF
• Turn gas cylinder OFF
Store heater upright in an area sheltered from direct
contact with inclement weather (such as rain, sleet,
hail, snow, dust and debris).
If desired, cover to protect exterior surfaces and to
prevent build up in air passages.
Note: Wait until heater is cool before covering.
During periods of extended inactivity or when trans-
porting:
• Turn control knob OFF.
• Disconnect gas cylinder and move to a secure,
well ventilated location outdoors. DO NOT store in
a location that will exceed 50°C.

Pilot won’t stay lit
Dirt build up around pilot Clean dirt from around pilot
Connection between gas valve and pilot
assembly is loose Tighten connection and perform leak test
Bad thermocouple Replace thermocouple
