4. Operation
4.1. Preparation before lighting
Make sure Control Knob is at OFF position.
4.2. Check Connection at Regulator/Cylinder for leaks. (See Figure 3)
4.3. Check and ensure the control knob is in the OFF position.
Place the Gas cylinder inside the Cylinder Cabinet and connect the Regulator to the Gas cylinder.
(see Figure 1)
Turn the Cylinder valve on. Apply a dishwashing soap and
water solution to the connection at Regulator and Cylinder. (See Figure 3)
If the connection is leaking you will see bubbles form.
In the case of any leaks, turn off the gas supply, undo the leaking connection, re-connect and try
again. If the leak persists consult Sunjoy Industries Customer Service 1 [phone] for
assistance and advice.
Do not use an open flame to test for leaks.
Once the testing is complete and there is no sign of a leak, continue the next step.
4.4. Purging the Pilot
To light the pilot the first step is to purge the gas line leading to the pilot assembly.
Press and turn the control knob to PILOT position and keep it depressed in for 1 to 2 minutes, then
conduct next step-light Pilot immediately. (see Figure 4)
Note: When a new or refilled gas cylinder is installed or the control knob
is turned on, the heater will need to have the Air purged out of the system.
4.5. Lighting the Pilot (see Figure 4)
Insert the Battery into the igniter button.
Press the control knob and turn to the PILOT position.
Hold the control knob in and press the igniter button until the Pilot lights.
Keep the control knob depressed in for a minute to heat the thermocouple.
Release the control knob and the Pilot should stay alight. If it does not, then try
re-lighting.
Note: To visually check the ignition of the Pilot, slide the viewing hole cover in Engine (B) to
either side. Once the Pilot flame stays on, close this cover.
Caution: Do not attempt to slide the Viewing hole cover when the Main burner is lit.
Lighting Instruction
a. Turn the LP gas tank valve OFF. Push control konb in , turn OFF,
And wait 5 minutes for any gas to clear.
Igniter Button
(Figure 4)

11
b. Turn the tank valve ON, push control
knob in and rotate to PILOT
Then push the igniter button until the
burner is ignited. If the burner
fails to remain lit or becomes
extinguished, repeat step b.
c. Once the burner has lit, continue to hold
the control knob in for 10
seconds, then release.
d. Turn the control knob from LOW to
HIGH to the desired heat setting.
4.6. Heat Setting Control (See Figure 4)
Press and turn the control knob to HIGH position, the burner will light immediately.
Press and turn the control knob to the heat setting required.
Note: While in use, the burner flame should be mainly blue in appearance with a small amount of
Yellow. Consult your store of purchase if satisfactory performance cannot be obtained.
Warning: If you smell gas while in use, immediately press and turn the control knob to “OFF”
position to shutdown the heater.
4.7. Turn off (See Figure 4)
Press and turn the control knob to PILOT position, the burner will extinguish but the Pilot will stay on.
To extinguish the Pilot, press and turn the control knob to OFF position.
Turn off the gas supply.
NOTE: Be careful not to bend the flexible hose part of the regulator. If the hose is bent, gas flow
could be reduced, or a gas leak could occur.
Please put the hose part of the regulator in proper and safe place. Keep it out of the pathways
where people may trip it over or in areas where the hose may be subjected to accidental damage.
Inspect the visible hose portion of the regulator prior to each use. Check it completely at least
annually.
Important: Use only standard 20 lbs propane cylinder constructed and marked in
accordance with the specifications for LP-gas cylinder of the U.S. Department Of
Transportation (D.O.T.). Disconnect the cylinder when the appliance is not in use.
5. Storage
Allow at least 45 minutes for the heater to cool down after using.
Store the Gas cylinder in a cool, dry and well ventilated area, out of the reach of children, and not in
a building, garage or any other enclosed area.
Store the heater upright in a sheltered area away from inclement weather and dust.
When the Patio Heater is completely cool, then the provided cover can be used.
Storage indoors is permissible only if the cylinder is removed.

6. Maintenance
To obtain the best performance from your heater make sure you perform the following maintenance
activities on a regular basis:
Keep exterior surfaces clean. Use warm soapy water for cleaning. Never use flammable or
corrosive cleaning agents. Be sure to keep the area around the burner and control assembly dry at all
times.
Airflow must be unobstructed. Clear insect nests or webs away from your heater’s exterior and
interior.
Carbon deposits may create a fire hazard. Clean dome and emitter with warm soapy water if
required.
Check your heater for signs of damage or wear, and replace components as necessary.
Check the hose located within the confines of the enclosure.
Keep the appliance area clear and free from combustible materials, gasoline and other
flammable vapors and liquids.
Keep the ventilation openings of the cylinder enclosure free and clear from debris.
Visually check the burner flame with below pictorial representations.
1) Flame should be blue with slight yellow tips.
2) Light burner, rotate knob from HIGH to LOW. You should see a
smaller flame in LOW Position than seen on HIGH. Always check
flame prior to each use. If only low flame is seen, refer to
“Burner flame is low” in the Troubleshooting Section.
7. Troubleshooting
PROBLEM WHAT TO DO?
Pilot won’t light Does the gas Cylinder contain gas?
Check the Gas supply-Is it connected and /or turned ON?
Is the correct gas type connected?
Has the Pilot line been purged as shown in the Purging section?
Check if the spark igniter is working. To do this, look through the viewing
hole. If you can’t see the spark, you may use a lighted match.
The Pilot jet may be blocked.
Check the Gas Pressure.
Pilot goes out Thermocouple, which is incorporated into part B, may need replacing.
The Pilot jet may be partially blocked.
Burner won’t light Is the Pilot light still burning?
The Burner jet may be blocked.
The Gas Cylinder may be low on gas.
Check the Gas Pressure.
Burner flame is low The Gas Cylinder may be low on gas.
Is the Control Knob positioned at “HIGH”?
The Burner jet may be partially blocked.
Check the Gas Pressure.
Burner emits smoke The Burner will burn off oily materials when it’s first lit.
Persistent smoke could suggest a partial blockage within the Burner itself.
Carbon deposit on Build-up of carbon can accumulate over time. Wipe off before lighting.
