small recreational enclosures, having
means for providing combustion air
and ventilation, such as enclosed
porches, cabins, fishing huts, trailers,
tent trailers, tents, truck caps and
vans. It may be used for emergency
indoor heating when connected to a
disposable 1 lb. propane cylinder.
Note: The heater can be used outdoors,
but may experience nuisance shutoffs
due to certain wind conditions.
• When the heater is cold or at room
temperature, it will take a few minutes
for the burner tile to turn bright
orange. This is normal and the heater
is working properly. If burner tile is
visibly flaming, turn heater off and call
a qualified service technician.
• When the unit is lit, there should be
about a quarter inch (1/4") border
around the tile that will not turn bright
