UNPACKING AND PLACEMENT
1. Take out heater from box carefully to avoid damage.
2. Remove all packing materials from heater.
3. Make sure all screws are tight and all parts intact.
NOTE: Save shipping carton and all packing materials for future storage of your heater.
4. When positioning your heater for use, keep it away from walls and all other materials as illustrated
below.
5. The floor should be firm and completely level. Reposition the heater, when it is notlevel.
NOTE: If your heater is not on a level surface, change its location. Do not attempt to prop heater up
with books or other objects.

FUELING
3. Turn the air vent knob on the top of the siphon clockwise toclose the vent. Start the flow of kerosene
(paraffin) by squeezing the bulb of the siphon vigorously six or seven times. Once flow begins, it is
no longer necessary to squeeze the bulb.
4. Check the removable tank fuel gauge while filling the tank.Stop filling by
loosening the switch button on top of the pump (turn anti-clockwise),
once the gauge indicates that the tank is full. Never overfill the tank,
especially not when the fuel is very cold (fuel expands when it heats up).
NOTE: Be careful to avoid overfilling the tank, especially with very cold
kerosene (paraffin). Overflow might occur due to expansion
when the fuel warms up.
5. Remove the siphon carefully, allowing excess kerosene(paraffin) to drain
from the tube back into the jerrycans. Replace fuel tank cap and tighten
it securely. Be sure to wipe away any spilled kerosene (paraffin) from tank
and other heater parts.
6. After making sure fuel tank cap is tightly fastened, invert tankand replace
into heater body.

OPERATION
CAUTION : Always make sure that there is sufficient ventilation.
SET CLOCK

heater is connected to the mains and not burning.
1. Use the Adjustment Keys (▼hour/▲ min.) to set the
time.
2. To set the time, press “hour” and “min.”set buttons.
Individual motions will increase the time by one
unit; holding continuously will raise either the
“hour” or “min.” rapidly. After approximately 10
seconds the blinking will stop and the setting will be
locked. 5 Minutes after switching off the heater, the
information on the display will disappear and the heater will automatically switch into the stand-by
position.

will start blinking, indicating that the ignition
procedure has started. This will take a short while.
2. After this time heater will automaticallyignite and
The button will cease its flashing. The Operation
Lamp will remain alight so long as heater is burning.
NOTE: If using your heater for the first time, or after long term storage, ignition may not take place
on the first try. Press the button again.
NOTE: Fuel pump may produce an audible operating noise at ignition. This is only temporary.

TIMER
IGNITION
Your heater can be
arranged to ignite automatcally at a chosen time by use of a pre-set “Timer”. This “Timer” can only be
set after the clock setting has been completed.
after that. The Timer Lamp and Digital Indicator will start blinking.
2. To set the “Timer” to the chosen igntion time, you should follow the same procedure as given earlier
for “Clock” time setting. After approximately 10 seconds, the digital indicator will return to “Clock”
mode, displaying the present time.
3. Your heater will now automatically start up the pre-set time.
4. If you wish to start up the heater at the pre-set time again, repeat the sameprocedure 1. mentioned
above.
NOTE: The pre-set time will remain so long as the heater receives electrical power. In the event of
power failure or disconnection of heater for more than 10 minutes, timer setting will be
cancelled.
NOTE: If normal ignition was used to set the heater burning (i.e. the heater is burning but the Timer
Lamp on the Indicator panel is out), pressing the Timer key will extinguish the heater, and
the heater will be put into the “Timer”mode.
TEMPERATURE REGULATION
1. Use the Adjustment keys (▼ hour / ▲ min.) to adjust the temperature.
2. Adjust the temperature using the key on the right (▲ min.) to set the
temperature to a higher setting and the key on the left (▼hour) to lower
the temperature.
3. Until the room temperature has reached the set temperature, the heater will burn ateither high or
medium burning mode. When the room temperature reaches or slightly exceeds the set
temperature, the heater will automatically shift to maintain the desired temperature.

7
NOTE: The standard setting of the heater is 20°C. However, once the set temperature has been
changed the new setting will remain in effect unless changed.
NOTE: Room temperature measurements are taken directly behind the heater.
These measurements may not represent the true room temperature.
SAVE OPERATION
The “SAVE” function allows you to limit the temperature. When this function
is activated, the heater will automatically switch off, when the room
temperature exceeds the set temperarure by 3°C. Subsequently, when the
room temperature has dropped again to the set temperature, the heater will
automatically switch on again. Activate the “SAVE” setting by pressing the
Save key. The Save indicalor will light up. Switch off the function by pressing
the Save key once again.
NOTE: Without the “SAVE” setting your heater will maintain the set temperature by approximation as
well, by adjusting its heating capacity. “SAVE” is an economy setting, which you can use when,
for instance, you are not present in the room or to keep it frost-free.

CHILDPROOF LOCK
The childproof lock can be used to prevent children accidentally changing the
heater settings. When the heater is burning and the childproof lock is on, the
heater can only be switched off. Other functions are blocked then. If the
heater has already been switched off, the childproof lock also prevents
accidental ignition of the heater.
Activate the childproof lock by pressing the Key-lock button and holding it down for more 3 seconds.
The Key-lock indicator will light up indicating that the childproof lock has been activated. Switch off the
childproof lock by pressing the Key-lock button and holding it down for more than 3 seconds once again.
VENTILATION INDICATOR
When the VENT indicator starts blinking, this is a sign that the room is not
vented sufficiently. If you do not provide additional ventilation, the heater
will switch off automatically after some time. If the indicator light continues
blinking after extra ventilation, please contact your dealer.
FUEL INDICATOR
When the Fuel Indicator lights up, it means that there is only fuel left for 10
more minutes. The count-down of the remaining heating time can be seen in
the Digital indicator. Now you have two options:
you remove the removable fuel tank and refill it outside the living room
or you push the Extension key. By pushing this button, the remaining heating time will extend to
90 minutes. The heater will automatically switch back to its lowest position. In the display the
number 90 will appear, which will decline to 10. At the arrival of 10, you will hear an alarm signal every
two minutes, warning you to refill the removable tank. If you do not react, the heater will extinguish by
itself. The heater will also sound a warning signal, when it switches off. The Fuel Indicator will blink,
while four lines (--:--) are blinking in the Digital indicator. You can stop this by pressing the button
once more.
Once the heater has used up all its fuel and extinguished, it will take some time, after the refill, before
the heater is completely ready for use again.
