Warning
The dimensions of the gas cylinder must be based on
the required gas flow rate and supply pressure.
The supply pressure to the pressure regulator must
always be greater than 2 bar.
The heater is supplied complete with gas hose (a) and pressure
reducer (c) with fittings (d) for connection to different types of
cylinders.
Depending on the country of destination, the heater may be
supplied with various types of gas pressure regulator.
Warning
The installer is responsible for guaranteeing that the
correct fitting is used for the connection to the gas
cylinder.
Always tighten the cylinder fitting first, and then the
pressure regulator, which has a swivel fitting.
TYPE I
• pressure regulator with G5 fitting for AT-BG-CY-DA-DE-EE-LT-
LV-MK-MT-RO-TR.
• G5/G2 fitting, with G2 fitting for G2 for BE-CZ-ES-FR-HR-HU-
LU-PL-PT-SI-SK.
• G5/G1 fitting, with G1 fitting for IT-GR
• G5/G7 fitting, with G7 fitting for FI - IE – GB (only if requested)
• G5/G9 fitting, with G9 fitting for SE – NO (only if requested)
• seal for NL, to install on G5 pressure regulator for NL.
TYPE II
• pressure regulator with G7 fitting for FI - IE - GB.
TYPE III
• pressure regulator with G9 fitting for SE - NO.
Warning
The seal of the fittings must be checked by pouring
liquid soap on them: the appearance of bubbles
indicates a possible gas leak.
Warning
Propane and buthane are heavier than air, therefore
any gas leakage can cause gas stagnation on the floor
or in any underlying room.
A safety valve (b) may be ordered for protection in case of a
broken gas hose. Installation of this valve is mandatory if required by
local installation laws and regulations.
The gas cylinder must be changed and replaced in an open room,
away from sources of heat and open flame, taking care to check that
the instructions in this paragraph are followed.
EN
Warning
Always make sure that the seal (if required by the
fitting) is present between the reducer and the
cylinder.
Make sure that the gas hose has been tightened
without being twisted: any stress from twisting can
seriously damage the hose.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Warning
Before switching on the heater, check that the power
supply specifications are the same as those stated on
the identification plate.
START
To start the space heater:
• Set the pressure regulator to maximum pressure
• Slowly open the gas cylinder valve the gas bottle.
Warning
In case of a gas leak, close the gas stopcock
immediately, close the gas cylinder valve, switch off
the heater, remove the plug from the electrical panel,
and call customer service to find the origin of the leak.
• Turn on the disconnecting switch on the main electrical panel;
• Move the switch to position (I); fan starts;
• Press the gas valve button and simultaneously press the
piezoigniter once or twice until the flame lights up.
• Keep the gas valve button pressed for 15 / 20 seconds until the
thermocouple is sufficiently heated: when button 13 is released,
the flame stays on.
If the heater still does not function, see TROUBLESHOOTING" to
identify the cause of the malfunction.
STOP
To stop the heater, turn the switch to position "0": the flame goes
out and the fan motor stops.
Lastly, close the gas supply stopcock and turn off the isolation
switch.
Warning
Wait at least 2 minutes before restarting the heater to
allow the thermocouple to cool completely.
Warning
If the heater is not used continuously, stop it by first
closing the gas supply stopcock and then switch it off
by pressing button (9) or by turning down the
thermostat:
this allows the gas in the gas tube to be fully used and
avoids any future leak when removing the gas tube.
