1. TOLIGHTYOURAPPLIANCE
WARNING: If the pilot light is extinguished either
intentionally or otherwise, no attempt should be made
to relight the gas until at least 3 minutes have elapsed.
1.1 Remove the air heater front door.
1.2 Check that the system is filled with water.
1.3 Ensure the gas, and where applicable the electrical
supplies to the air heater and water heater are turned on.
1.4 Ensure the Temperature Control Knob is set to ‘OFF’
(fully clockwise).
1.5 Identify the positions of the ‘START’button, ( on the
gas control, marked by a spark symbol,) ‘IGNITION’
button, and the pilot burner viewing port
1.6 Press and hold the ‘START’button fully in and whilst
observing the pilot burner through the viewing port,
repeatedly press and release the ‘IGNITION’ button
until the pilot lights. When the pilot has been lit, keep
the ‘START’button pressed for a further 20 seconds
and then release. The pilot burner should now remain
alight. If it does not, press the ‘OFF’ button and wait
until a minimum of three minutes and then repeat the
ignition sequence, holding the ‘START’ in for a little
longer than before.
NOTE: When lighting the pilot, ensure that the ‘OFF’
button is not touched. Partial depression of the ‘OFF’
button may operate the safety mechanism and prevent
the main burner from lighting.
1.7 With the pilot burner lit, turn the ‘TEMPERATURE
CONTROL KNOB’ fully anticlockwise. The heater
will now operate automatically, controlled by the water
thermostat, providing that any switch (time clock or
manual control) controlling the system is ON.
1.8 Refit the air heater front door
2. OPERATION OFYOURAPPLIANCE
2.1 The Temperature Control Knob will, in its fully anti
clockwise position, control water to the highest
temperature. If a lower temperature is required, turn the
Temperature Control Knob clockwise to the desired
position.
NOTE: If the Temperature Control Knob is removed for
any reason, ensure that it is correctly located when
refitting. DO NOT USE FORCE or damage will occur.
Check the location of the control knob by turning it
fully clockwise; OFF shall be against the red marker on
the gas control.
2.2 The pilot burner must be alight to allow the main
burner to operate under automatic control. Should it
become extinguished, a safety device will shut off all
gas to the appliance.
3. MAINTENANCE
