This transportation cap
is packed separately in
the box. Only this cap
ensures trouble-free
transportation of the
heater after use.
Store it well!
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW IN ADVANCE
ALWAYS MAKE SURE THAT THERE IS SUFFICIENT VENTILATION
For each model the minimum size of space is specified in which you can use the
heater safely, without additional ventilation (refer to Section K).If a particular
room is smaller than the specified space, always leave a window or door slightly
ajar (± 2.5 cm). We also recommend doing this in highly insulated or draught-free
rooms and/or at altitudes above 1,500 metres. However, if there is insufficient
ventilation (i.e. oxygen), the heater will automatically switch off. Do not use your
heater in cellars or other underground areas.
SAFE TOP
The heater is supplied with a safe top. This application decreases the temperature
of the top plate. In this way, the risk of harmful accidents at accidentally touching
the top plate is considerably decreased. However, be aware that the top plate still
becomes hot.
Avoid any contact with the top plate and grille.
THE RIGHT FUEL
Only use Class C1 paraffin fuel in accordance with BS2869 Part two, or equivalent.
Your heater has been designed for use with high-quality water-free pure paraffin
oil, such as Zibro Plus. Only fuels of this kind will ensure clean and proper burning.
Lower quality fuel may result in:
Eexcessive tar deposits on the glass fibrewick
Eincomplete burning
Ereduced heater lifetime
Esmoke and/or smells
Edeposits on the grid or mantle
Using the right fuel is therefore essential for safe, efficient, and comfortable use
of your heater.
Always refer to your local dealer for the right fuel for your heater.
Only the use of the
correct fuel will ensure
safe, efficient, and
comfortable use of your
heater.

MANUAL
AINSTALLING THE HEATER

Inaddition to the heater you also need to have:
Eamanual fuel pump
Eatransportation cap
Eafuel cap cover
Ethese directions for use
Keep the box and the packaging materials (Fig. A) for storage and/or
transportation.
Remove the other packaging materials:
ERemove the packaging material from the grill G.Lift the grill from the slot
(Fig. B) and pull it forward.
EPush the packing material on top of the combustion chamber Dslightly
down and remove it (Fig. C). Remove the packaging materials from under
the combustion chamber as well (Fig. D).
EPut the combustion chamber back into its place. The combustion chamber
is positioned correctly when it can be smoothly moved a little to the left
and to the right by its handle E(Fig. E). Close the grill: Slightly lift it to
reposition it in its slot.
EOpen the lid of the removable tank Hand remove the piece of cardboard.
Fill the removable tank as indicated in Section B.
Insertthe batteries into their holder 3at the back of the heater (Fig. F).
Ensurethat the positive and negative poles match the + and - marks indicated
on the battery housing.
The floor should be firm and completely level. Reposition the heater, when it is
not level. Do not correct the situation by placing books or other goods under the
heater.
Please refer to the separate instructions in the carton box for fixing of
the heater.
Your heater is now ready for use.

Take the manual fuel pump and insert the smooth, most rigid tube into the
jerrycan. Make sure that it is in a higher position than the removable tank
(Fig. I). Insert the ribbed hose into the opening of the removable tank.
Lock the valve on top of the pump (turn clockwise).
Squeeze the pump a few times, until fuel starts flowing into the removable
tank. As soon as this happens, there is no need to press any longer.
Check the removable tank fuel gauge Jwhile filling the tank (Fig. J). Stop
filling by loosening the valve on top of the pump (turn anti-clock-wise), 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).
Let the remaining fuel in the pump flow back into the jerrycan and carefully
remove the pump. Carefully screw the fuel cap back on the tank using the
fuel cap cover. After use, re-store the cover at the rear of the heater. Clean
off any spilled fuel.
Check whether the fuel cap is straight and tightened properly. Reinstall the
removable tank in the heater (cap down). Close the lid.
CIGNITING THE HEATER
Anew heater may give offsome smells for a shortwhile, when it is used for the
first time. You should thereforeprovide extra ventilation or ignite the heater
outside the living room.
When you use the heater for the first time, first put the filled removable tank into
place, and then wait approximately 30 minutes before you ignite the heater. This
allows the glass fibre wick to soak up the fuel. Follow the same procedure when you
have completely burnt up all fuel from the tank, and after the glass fibre wick has
been replaced.
Before igniting the heater, always check the fuel indicator Fto see whether the
removable tank needs filling up (Green=full, Red=empty).
Always ignite the heater with the knurled wick adjustment knob 2.Never use
matches or a cigarette lighter.
Follow the procedure below:
Turn the knurled wick adjustment knob 2clockwise to its stop (Fig. K). If you
apply morepressure you may turn it slightly further; however, it will automatically
return to the start position. When you have set the wick to its highest position,
this action will automatically activate the safety device.

After having ignited the heater, always check whether the combustion
chamber Dis level, by sliding it slightly to the left and the right by its handle E
(Fig. E). This should be a smooth movement. If the combustion chamber is not
level, this will cause smoke and soot to develop.
DBURNING OF THE HEATER
After you have ignited the heater, it will take 10 to 15 minutes before you can
check whether the heater is burning well. Too high a flame may cause smoke and
soot, whereas too low a flame causes smells. The page opposite the folding page
shows the minimum and maximum permissible burning heights of the flame (Fig. R).
If the flame remains low after the adjustment, the wick height must be
adjusted (refer to Section F).
Burning that is too low may be caused by:
Einsufficient fuel (fill the tank)
Epoor fuel quality (contact your dealer)
Einsufficient ventilation (put window or door ajar)
Ewastage of the wick (contact your dealer or replace the wick,
refer to section M)
This heater is fitted with a safety system that ensures that it switches offif you
lift the exchange tank out of the heater for morethan 5 seconds. Toswitch the
heater on again, put the exchange tank back and follow the steps in section C.
ESWITCHING OFF THE HEATER
Push the OFF-button A.The flame will extinguish after a little while.
FADJUSTING THE WICK HEIGHT
After a period of time the combustion may no longer be high enough (Section D).In
that case you can adjust the wick height to improve the flame. To do this, the heater
must have been switched off. Follow the procedure below:
Push the OFF button A(Fig. M).
Pull the knurled wick adjustment knob Boff the heater, so the wick height
lock Kwill be visible.
Take the plastic collar between your thumb and index finger and pull it out.
Turn the collar up one step, to either position 2 or 3 (Fig. N). Carefully push
the collar back, so the pin engages in the recess.
Carefully reinstall the knurled wick adjustment knob. This can be done in one
way only - check the rear of the cap for the correct position.
